Subject: [ECOS] high bandwidth network problems
Date: Wed, 06 Sep 2000 02:58:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.10.10009061244170.11871-100000@dreamcoat.che.uct.ac.za> (raw)

Hi

I have my board connected to our backbone which has a huge ammount of
broadcast traffic continously (nearly 2000 machines), after a while, ecos
starts spewing out messages: and stops responding to network traffic.

warning: eth_recv out of MBUFs
setsoftnet

Can anyone tell me what the setsoftnet is supposed to do? Do I have to 
implement somthing in the network driver? What can I do to
prevent this from occuring?

thanks
