After spending hours trying to find something -- anything -- wrong with
irq delivery and e1000 hung tx unit, I went back to my original hunch,
which was swiotlb related.  When TSO is enabled, some debugging showed
this:

swiotlb_map_page: returns d586a000
dma_map_page: returns ffffffffd586a000

Indeed.

 a43:   e8 00 00 00 00          callq  a48 <dma_map_page+0xc8>        a44: 
R_X86_64_PC32      swiotlb_map_page+0xfffffffffffffffc
 a48:   48 63 d8                movslq %eax,%rbx

Whoops.  Prototype mismatch.

And had we been paying attention:

/home/chrisw/hg/xen/xen-unstable/linux-2.6.16-rc2-xen0/arch/x86_64/kernel/../../i386/kernel/pci-dma-xen.c:107:
 warning: implicit declaration of function âswiotlb_map_pageâ

Here's a quick patch that fixes the issue (not ready to apply to
-unstable, since it's a file that's not in sparse tree).  Nitin, this
should fix your problem as well.  I'll work on a proper patch later this
evening or tomorrow morning.

thanks,
