Adding 8 bytes (sky2->netdev->mtu + ETH_HLEN + VLAN_HLEN + 8 (EDSA_HLEN)) does not fix the error, because the interface keep having a maximum length of 1518 bytes (sky2->netdev->mtu + ETH_HLEN + VLAN_HLEN).Did you check the value being written to here: /* * The receiver hangs if it receives frames larger than the * packet buffer. As a workaround, truncate oversize frames, but * the register is limited to 9 bits, so if you do frames > 2052 * you better get the MTU right! */ thresh = sky2_get_rx_threshold(sky2); if (thresh > 0x1ff) sky2_write32(hw, SK_REG(sky2->port, RX_GMF_CTRL_T), RX_TRUNC_OFF); else { sky2_write16(hw, SK_REG(sky2->port, RX_GMF_TR_THR), thresh); sky2_write32(hw, SK_REG(sky2->port, RX_GMF_CTRL_T), RX_TRUNC_ON); } What is thresh?
The value of thresh is 380. Rafa
