Jeff,
I'm submitting a patch series for inclusion in 2.6.24 for the cxgb driver.
The patches are built against Linus'git tree.
Here is a brief description:
- Ensure that GSO skbs have enough headroom before encapsulating them,
- Fix a crash in NAPI mode,
- Fix statistics accounting and report.
Cheers,
Divy

We ran pktgen overnight on 2.6.23 with patch 1 and 3 applied (patch 2
not needed on .23 it seems) and it was stable at about 1.5Gbps bi-directional
using 1500 MTU sized frames.
We'll run some more tests with user-space TCP & UDP today, but it looks good
so far.
Perhaps these patches should be considered for .23 stable as well?
Thanks,
Ben

Yes, patches 1 and 3 could be considered for .22 and .23-stable, along
with the previous fix:

Can you send all of the individual patches you wish to have applied to
the -stable tree to stable@kernel.org so that we can properly determine
exactly which patches you are referring to?
Also, make sure they are already in Linus's tree before telling us about
them.
thanks,
greg k-h
