I should be able to test your r8169 NAPI changes tomorrow.Thank you.
(sorry for the delay) I think that the r8169 part should be reverted. . With it, my 8169 oopsed unexpectedly in rtl8169_reinit_task a few seconds after I started a 'ping -q -f -l64 -s 36' and before I did anything else. I do not have a clear explanation for the oops yet. . rtl8169_reset_task will not like it as it could allow two racing r8169_rx_interrupt. . The irq will be enabled later when needed: the modified code is only relevant for the reset/reinit tasks. . After reverting the hunk, the 8168 in the same box stood the same stream (> 50kpps in both direction). Everything worked as expected when I ifconfiged it down, then up again. Same thing when I pluged the cable out then in. I'll give it more testing/thought. -- Ueimor
