Jeff,

I'm submitting a patch series for inclusion in 2.6.24 for the cxgb 
driver.
The patches are built against Linus'git tree.

Here is a brief description:
- Ensure that GSO skbs have enough headroom before encapsulating them,
- Fix a crash in NAPI mode,
- Fix statistics accounting and report.

We ran pktgen overnight on 2.6.23 with patch 1 and 3 applied (patch 2
not needed on .23 it seems) and it was stable at about 1.5Gbps 
bi-directional
using 1500 MTU sized frames.

We'll run some more tests with user-space TCP & UDP today, but it 
looks good
so far.

Perhaps these patches should be considered for .23 stable as well?

Thanks,
Ben

Yes, patches 1 and 3 could be considered for .22 and .23-stable, along 
with the previous fix:
