eth0:Too much work at interrupt, IntrStatus=0x0010.
Hello All,I am using RealTek8139 diver version 0.9.2 NIC on RH 9.0 machine.It's 100mbps NIC .But I am getting lot of interrupts and hangups at work.I have checked logs and I found this
Shehh#dmesg
eth0: Too much work at interrupt, IntrStatus=0x0010.
eth0: Too much work at interrupt, IntrStatus=0x0010.
eth0: Too much work at interrupt, IntrStatus=0x0010.
eth0: Too much work at interrupt, IntrStatus=0x0010.

eth0: Too much work at interrupt, IntrStatus=0x0010.
eth0: Too much work at interrupt, IntrStatus=0x0010.
eth0: Too much work at interrupt, IntrStatus=0x0010.
This my kernel booting says:
My logs say:
Jul 7 16:44:04 server kernel: t interrupt, IntrStatus=0x0010.
Jul 7 16:44:04 server kernel: eth0: Too much work at interrupt, IntrStatus=0x00
10.
Jul 7 16:44:05 server last message repeated 291 times
Jul 7 16:44:05 server kernel: eth0: Too much work at interrupt, IntrStatus=0x00
41
***************************************
I have tried to increase the value of max_interrupt_wotk =40 from 20 but it dosen't work at all.Now What should I do ?NIC replacement will be the last option.I have to make it 10mbps from 100mbps.I think it is too fast for my machie.
But how should I do that?
OR else any other solution?
Thanks
