I guess it needs a seperate mutex to protect miibus(4) handler and should remove the use of MTX_RECURSE. vge(4) also has a bug if mbuf chain is too long(7 or higher) and defragmentation with m_defrag(9) fails it would access an invalid mbuf chain. All these requires lots of work and need a real hardware. Oleg, if you have hardware, would you fix it? -- Regards, Pyun YongHyeonReceived on Tue Aug 22 2006 - 22:56:04 UTC
