Donald,

Currently I've got the max_interrupt_work set to 50, RX_RING_SIZE to 128 and
for now I've put the timeout back to 6*HZ.

With these settings I'm getting the following messages:

eth0: Too much work during an interrupt, csr5=0xfc670040.
eth0: Too much work during an interrupt, csr5=0xfc6880c0.
eth0: Restarted Rx at 57291 / 57291.

I'm going to move the max_interrupt_work up again and retry.

Let me know if changing the debug level to get more messages would help.

I figured that the issue was due to a lack of fidelity in the emulation but
since Microsoft won't share their source code I felt my best bet was to
alter the network driver in Linux to work around this problem.

Thanks for looking into this,

Andrew Schneider
