All devices in path from root complex to 82571, should have *same* max

payload size otherwise it can cause hang.

Can you double check this?

Hi Tushar,

Checked with hardware vendor and they said no way to modify the max
payload size from BIOS, can I modify it from driver side?

If you want to change value for 82571 device you can do it from eeprom but for other upstream devices I am not sure. I will check with my team.

Hi Tushar,

Would you please help to fine the offset of max payload size in eeprom?
I'd like to have a try to modify it by ethtool.

Thanks in advance,
Joe
