When I first became aware of this problem, I checked ibm.com and applied the most recent Bladecenter/LS21 firmware updates - so the NIC firmware should be current compared to what IBM officially offers. The ethtool output is: $ sudo ethtool -i eg0 driver: bnx2 version: 2.0.1 firmware-version: 4.6.1 ipms 1.6.0 bus-info: 0000:02:04.0 The latest IBM firmware update appears to be: http://www-947.ibm.com/systems/support/supportsite.wss/docdisplay?lndocid=MIGR-5083668&brandind=5000020 Many thanks, Stuart On 31 Mar 2010, at 17:01, Michael Chan wrote: > Stuart Shelton wrote: > >> The Broadcom NetXtreme II driver appears to have a severe >> regression in >> all kernels post 2.6.30 - I've observed problems with 2.6.31, 2.6.32. >> and 2.6.33. >> >> The hardware impacted is an IBM Bladecenter LS21 Blade, model >> 7971.
