did some bisecting and found commit [2] to be problematic. Reverting that commit plus the two follow-on fixes [3] and [4] prevents the warnings and timeout. I'm no networking expert so can't determine if [2] is broken or merely exposes a different underlying issue. I failed to reproduce the problem using a dedicated Realtek-based USB NIC plugged into the Pi, which points towards the lan78xx driver/HW being the culprit. Enabling KASAN didn't trigger any error reports. Let me know if there's anything else I can try to narrow this down. ...Juerg [1] On the Pi, I run: $ nc -l 1234 | dd status=progress >/dev/null And on another machine, that is configured to use the Pi as the gateway: $ nc 192.168.99.115 1234 < /dev/urandom and a couple of firefox instances that keep opening public URls. [2] Author: Eric Dumazet Date: Tue Nov 27 14:42:03 2018 -0800 tcp: implement coalescing on backlog queue In case GRO is not as efficient as it should be or disabled, we might have a user thread trapped in __release_sock() while softirq handler flood packets up to the point we have to drop. This patch balances work done from user thread and softirq, to give more chances to __release_sock() to complete its work before new packets are added the the backlog. This also helps if we receive many ACK packets, since GRO does not aggregate them. This patch brings ~60% throughput increase on a receiver without GRO, but the spectacular gain is really on 1000x release_sock() latency reduction I have measured.
