Description

How to reproduce:
ifconfig re0 mtu 4088
cd /usr; make pkgsrc-create
wait a bit
re0 completely hangs; no ping; nothing when tcpdumping; nothing dmesg either

doing a
ifconfig re0 mtu 1500
gets it back to life though...

Can you try turning off txcsum when using jumbo frame on re0? i.e.
ifconfig re0 -txcsum

I did:

ifconfig re0 -txcsum
ifconfig re0 mtu 4088
cd /usr; make pkgsrc-create

still hangs at 26 % (i.e. after transfering about 124.11 MiB)

Still hangs :(

  1. make pkgsrc-create
    If problems occur you may have to rm -rf pkgsrc and try again.

mkdir -p /usr/pkgsrc
cd /usr/pkgsrc && git init
Initialized empty Git repository in /usr/pkgsrc/.git/
cd /usr/pkgsrc && git remote add origin git://git.dragonflybsd.org/pkgsrcv2.git
cd /usr/pkgsrc && git fetch origin
remote: Counting objects: 1670882, done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (519219/519219), done.
Receiving objects: 9% (152313/1670882), 39.48 MiB | 1.21 MiB/s

  1. ifconfig re0
    re0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 4088
    options=1b<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING>
    ...
    media: Ethernet autoselect (1000baseT <full-duplex>)
    status: active

I see some packets though when tcpdump'ing -ni re0:

09:05:47.417598 IP 192.168.0.2.1018 > 192.168.0.1.2049: Flags [.], ack 1, win 65535, length 0
09:07:02.417694 IP 192.168.0.2.1018 > 192.168.0.1.2049: Flags [.], ack 1, win 65535, length 0
09:08:17.417802 IP 192.168.0.2.1018 > 192.168.0.1.2049: Flags [R.], seq 1, ack 1, win 65535, length 0
...

but that's it, no ping, no NFS, no network anymore
