To make things easier for you I've applied it to both net-2.6 and net-2.6.25 It seems like the code was trying to avoid that initial memset, grabbing the first cpu explicitly and then copying along the way. But the loop iterator wasn't adjusted correctly and of course the zero-cpu-assumption you noticed as well plays into this :-) - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
