Jonathan,
one change I don't understand:
OLD (-04):
TF: Traffic Class, Flow Label:
00: Traffic Class + 4-bit Pad + Flow Label (4 bytes)
NEW (-05):
TF: Traffic Class, Flow Label:
00: 4-bit Pad + Traffic Class + Flow Label (4 bytes)
This is not in the change notes.
It destroys the byte-alignment of the Traffic Class field.
It also hurts the (code-saving) similarities -04 had between the TF
values 00, 01, and 10.
Clearly, this is a regression.
(Unfortunately, it is almost identical to the old version so I didn't
notice the change in July.)
As an editorial comment, it would help to just say that the meaning of
DAC/DAM simply is the same as that for SAC/SAM for M=0.
As another technical note: Are we sure that these changes really don't
impact ISA100, which appear to be stuck on -04? I haven't managed to
verify that yet.
Gruesse, Carsten
