Subject: netxen_nic: unregister_netdevice error

hi,

When test bonding broadcast mode I met a problem.
modprobe -r bonding will fail after I ping broadcast address.

I find that the problem only shows up when I use netxen_nic driver.
When use ixgbe and bn2x2 driver, no problem occurs.

I use RHEL 6.2, kernel 2.6.32-131.0.15.el6.i686,
Can anybody confirm this bug using 2.6.39 or upstream ?

many thanks
Weiping Pan


The test script is followed.

#test script start
#!/bin/bash

NETWORK_CARD0=eth1
NETWORK_CARD1=eth2


function broadcast_test()
{
     modprobe bonding mode=broadcast miimon=100
     ifconfig bond0 192.168.8.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
     ifconfig $NETWORK_CARD0 down
     ifconfig $NETWORK_CARD1 down
     echo +$NETWORK_CARD0 > /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/slaves
     echo +$NETWORK_CARD1 > /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/slaves
     ping 192.168.8.255 -b -c 10
     modprobe -r bonding
}

# main
echo 0 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/icmp_echo_ignore_broadcasts
modprobe -r bonding

for i in `seq 1 10`
do
     echo    "*******************"
     echo     "***iteration$i*****"
     echo -e "*******************\n\n"
     broadcast_test
done
#test script end
