Starting with commit a3bc1f11e9b867a4f49505 ("gianfar: Revive SKB
recycling") gianfar driver sooner or later stops transmitting any
packets on SMP machines.
start_xmit() prepares new skb for transmitting, generally it does
three things:
1. sets up all BDs (marks them ready to send), except the first one.
2. stores skb into tx_queue->tx_skbuff so that clean_tx_ring()
would cleanup it later.
3. sets up the first BD, i.e. marks it ready.
Here is what clean_tx_ring() does:
1. reads skbs from tx_queue->tx_skbuff
2. checks if the *last* BD is ready. If it's still ready [to send]
then it it isn't transmitted, so clean_tx_ring() returns.
Otherwise it actually cleanups BDs. All is OK.
Now, if there is just one BD, code flow:
- start_xmit(): stores skb into tx_skbuff. Note that the first BD
(which is also the last one) isn't marked as ready, yet.
- clean_tx_ring(): sees that skb is not null, *and* its lstatus
says that it is NOT ready (like if BD was sent), so it cleans
it up (bad!)
- start_xmit(): marks BD as ready [to send], but it's too late.
We can fix this simply by reordering lstatus/tx_skbuff writes.

Starting with commit a3bc1f11e9b867a4f49505 ("gianfar: Revive SKB
recycling") gianfar driver sooner or later stops transmitting any
packets on SMP machines.
start_xmit() prepares new skb for transmitting, generally it does
three things:
1. sets up all BDs (marks them ready to send), except the first one.
2. stores skb into tx_queue->tx_skbuff so that clean_tx_ring()
would cleanup it later.
3. sets up the first BD, i.e. marks it ready.
Here is what clean_tx_ring() does:
1. reads skbs from tx_queue->tx_skbuff
2. checks if the *last* BD is ready. If it's still ready [to send]
then it it isn't transmitted, so clean_tx_ring() returns.
Otherwise it actually cleanups BDs. All is OK.
Now, if there is just one BD, code flow:
- start_xmit(): stores skb into tx_skbuff. Note that the first BD
(which is also the last one) isn't marked as ready, yet.
- clean_tx_ring(): sees that skb is not null, *and* its lstatus
says that it is NOT ready (like if BD was sent), so it cleans
it up (bad!)
- start_xmit(): marks BD as ready [to send], but it's too late.
We can fix this simply by reordering lstatus/tx_skbuff writes.

Anton,
Once this makes it into Linus's tree can you make sure we get it added to -stable.

This patch also makes gianfar work stable on mpc8313 with 2.6.33/RT_PREEMPT.
WIthout it, I see exactly the same problems as reported by Anton on SMP.
