Hi all, I've identified you as people who have at some point in the past
emailed one of the Linux lists with problems with e1000 and
sk_forward_alloc. It seems to be fairly widespread, but only seems to
have appeared with recent kernel changes (after 2.6.12...)
What I need from you is a reproducible test, and some information. I
have never been able to reproduce this, and I'm trying to isolate the
problem a bit. What motherboards are you using?
RIOWORKS/PDRCA.

What seems to cause this problem?
Don't known as this problem occurs only occasionally.
Are you all using iptables?
Yes, this is a www proxy server with "-j REDIRECT".
Are you all routing?
Some kind as this is a transparent www proxy.
From the reports I assume none of you are using an 82571/2/3 (pci
express)
