I am trying to transport a dd image between to hosts over a cross linked gigabit connection. Both hosts have an eth1 configured to a non routable ip addr on a shared network. No other devices exist on this link.
When transferring via sftp I received a stall warning. Checking the logs I see this:
dmesg | grep eth
e1000e 0000:00:19.0: eth0: (PCI Express:2.5GT/s:Width x1) 00:1c:c0:f2:1f:bb e1000e 0000:00:19.0: eth0: Intel(R) PRO/1000 Network Connection e1000e 0000:00:19.0: eth0: MAC: 7, PHY: 8, PBA No: FFFFFF-0FF r8169 0000:01:00.0: eth1: RTL8168d/8111d at 0xffffc9000187c000, 00:0a:cd:1d:44:fe, XID 081000c0 IRQ 31 r8169 0000:01:00.0: eth1: jumbo features [frames: 9200 bytes, tx checksumming: ko] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready device eth0 entered promiscuous mode r8169 0000:01:00.0: eth1: invalid firwmare r8169 0000:01:00.0: eth1: unable to load firmware patch rtl_nic/rtl8168d-1.fw (-22) r8169 0000:01:00.0: eth1: link down r8169 0000:01:00.0: eth1: link down ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth1: link is not ready r8169 0000:01:00.0: eth1: link up ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): eth1: link becomes ready e1000e: eth0 NIC Link is Up 1000 Mbps Full Duplex, Flow Control: None ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): eth0: link becomes ready br0: port 1(eth0) entering learning state eth1: no IPv6 routers present eth0: no IPv6 routers present br0: port 1(eth0) entering forwarding state r8169 0000:01:00.0: eth1: link down r8169 0000:01:00.0: eth1: link up r8169 0000:01:00.0: eth1: link down r8169 0000:01:00.0: eth1: link up
This may, or may not, be related to this bug:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12411
Is there some way to confirm whether or not this is the case. Is there a work-around for it if it is this bug? If it is not then has anyone any idea what is happening and how to fix it?

Elrepo.org has updated drivers for both e1000e and r8169 devices (I'm guessing it's probably the kmod-r8168 you'd need). You could try these to see if they resolve the issue.
If you want more help identifying the correct driver for your hardware, see FAQ #4 here:
Hope that helps.
