I'm not sure how to do patch submissions, so I'll just post here.
On the rhel6/042stab057.1 kernel, tcp networking doesn't work on the card:
ServerEngines Corp. Emulex OneConnect 10Gb NIC (be3)
ICMP does work fine. Looking at the patches, networking was working correctly in 0.37, our guess is that this most likely has to do with changes with CONFIG_NET_POLL_CONTROLLER in the bridge and bond code.
We tried cherry picking the patch for NET_POLL on benet from here:
www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg182735.html (can't post links)
That unfortunately didn't work. What did work was merging in the new driver:
h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareDescriptio n.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodTypeId=15351&prodSeriesI d=4091412&prodNameId=4091432&swEnvOID=4095&swLan g=8&mode=2&taskId=135&swItem=MTX-afd2c5e0c3134fe a9903352492 (can't post links)
With the new driver, tcp does work. I'm not sure if any other network cards are affected since 0.37. Should I attach a patch, post in bugzilla, or is this post enough?
Thanks.
