Can you also send me the output of ethtool -i?
It seems that there is a problem with write combining on Power processors, we will check this issue.

Hello, Yevgeny.

You will find the output of ethtool -i below.

I am copying Ben and powerpc list, in case this is an issue with Power
processors. They can provide us some more insight into this.

May I get some background please ? :-)

I'm not aware of a specific issue with write combining but I'd need to
know more about what you are doing and the code to do it to comment on
whether it should work or not.

Cheers,
Ben.
