Hi,
I have Freescale LS1021A target with kernel version - 5.10.35-rt. The device has 3 ethernet ports & one of the ports is used for EtherCAT. The Samba service is running on the device, which configures on all interfaces by default. We have observed that EtherCAT master losses RX messages frequently. On analyzing the tcpdump messages, it is seen that loss of RX message is seen immediately after NetBIOS packets which are from the samba service. The loss of message counter reported by EtherCat Master & Kernel driver is the same.
I'm just curious how NetBios causes the loss of RX messages. Any help is appreciated.
