What about ethtool -S ? Does it report any errors?

Neither. This is is a broadcom bnx2 NIC.

Are you sure the packets are dropped at the sender?

Yes I am sending 400k messages from the app and the receiver only gets
341k @300 byte (which is the line rate). There is no way that the 400k get
over the line. Also if I reduce SO_SNDBUF then both receiver and
sender get down to 341k.

I added the output of ethtool -S at the end.

The mcast tool can be had from http://gentwo.org/ll or from my directory
on www.kernel.org.

I have no idea where is defined sync_fetch_and_add

Doh...

Dont bother, I had to add "-march=i686" to CFLAGS to get "xadd" support
