解决以太网看门狗定时器死锁

我有一个 debian linux 盒子（Debian Squeeze），如果我运行一个嗅探接口的 python 脚本，它每隔几个小时就会死锁......

堆栈跟踪附加在这个问题的底部。本质上，我有一个 Broadcom 以太网接口（bnx2驱动程序），当我启动嗅探会话时，它似乎死掉了，然后它尝试从同一接口传输帧。

据我所知，内核看门狗定时器正在触发......

NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth3 (bnx2): transmit queue 0 timed out

我认为有一种方法可以控制看门狗定时器ioctl（参考：EmbeddedFreak：如何使用Linux看门狗）。

问题（原文）：

如何找到哪个看门狗定时器正在控制 eth3？如果你能告诉我如何更改计时器甚至禁用看门狗，那就加分了......

问题（修订）：

如何防止以太网看门狗定时器引起问题？

答案1

我在 GeNUA 上读到过类似的故事。他们的解决方法是重新启动网络驱动程序 (OpenBSD)。在 Linux 上，这将转换为： ifdown eth3 && rmmod bnx2 && modprobe bnx2 && ifup eth3.

核心问题是 PAE 系统上的指针与 Broadcom 驱动程序相关的内部编码问题。

答案2

注释掉我调用ethtool修改 NIC 缓冲区的代码可以阻止看门狗定时器在bnx2卡上触发。

我仍然想找到有关看门狗定时器问题的答案，但我会问另一个问题

def _linux_buffer_alloc(iface=None, rx_ring_buffers=768,
    netdev_max_backlog=30000):

    default_rx = 255
    default_rx_jumbo = 0
    default_netdev_max_backlog = 1000
    ## Set linux rx ring buffers (to prevent tcpdump 'dropped by intf' msg)
## FIXME: removing for now due to systematic deadlocks with the bnx2 driver
#    sample: ethtool -G eth3 rx 768
#    cmd = 'ethtool -G %s rx %s' % (iface, rx_ring_buffers)
#    p = Popen(cmd.split(' '), stdout=PIPE)
#    p.communicate(); time.sleep(0.15)
#    sample: ethtool -G eth3 rx-jumbo 0
#    cmd = 'ethtool -G %s rx-jumbo %s' % (iface, default_rx_jumbo)
#    p = Popen(cmd.split(' '), stdout=PIPE)
#    p.communicate(); time.sleep(0.15)
## /FIXME
