Aha. This doesn't seem to be in mr. Romieu's patch above: should it go
in on top of that?
His newer
0002-r8169-workaround-against-ignored-TxPoll-writes-8168.patch
does the same thing as the older quoted version, and is also
included in the roll-up patch he pointed you to.
I agree re. performance, and don't want to clutter the thread
realtek issues. I just wanted to clarify this particular
realtek-samba issue in case it's relevant. For a long time folks
suspected similar culprits (bad cable, half duplex, etc.) when
it was the driver. Perhaps you should try doing a ping flood
between server&client during your test. That healed the
problem by keeping the queue busy in the realtek case.
