Subject: Re: Regarding tx-nocache-copy in the Sheevaplug
Date: Mon, 13 Oct 2014 16:31:38 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20141013143138.GJ1972@vicerveza.homeunix.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20141013142156.GE26864@lunn.ch>

Enabling tx offload and disabling tx-nocache-copy, making the machine *send* a
lot of ssh traffic (sftp for example) makes ssh fail HMAC. It's quite easy to
reproduce here.

As for the hardware, it's an old sheevaplug board.
