Hello,
Ok, I despaired a bit about mtrrs on the Linux side and went into BIOS and started playing with the cache settings there. The change that fixed the problem was to disable all "area CXXX-> : cached". Now, I have a really fast quad Xeon 6G RAM with consistently failing eepro100 interface. Downing/upping the interface does not help. I suppose in this state it is easier to debug because everything else is fully functional -- let's just find out why this particular eepro100 doesn't work.
Kernel compiles in 54-60 seconds -- very impressive (I am talking about full make -j4 bzImage after make clean)
Now, this is with and without Zoltan's big-mtrr patch, just verified a minute ago.
Regards, Tigran
