Hello,

I am using Linux kernel 2.4.19 on a MPC8260 and I was wondering why the
FCC code does not use the Dual Port RAM to store the Buffer Descriptors?
Instead it uses regular host memory.

In arch\ppc\8260_io\fcc_enet.c it states :

        /* I really want to do this, but for some reason it doesn't
         * work with the data cache enabled, so I allocate from the
         * main memory instead.
         */

inside of the init_fcc_param routine.

Thanks,

John Penn
