> [TG3]: Fix the polarity bit. > > For most pre-5705 devices, multiple link interrupts were being generated > for a single physical link change. The source of the interrupts was > determined to be unnecessary toggling of the MAC link polarity bit. > > This patch changes the way the link polarity bit gets configured. Where > possible, code that dynamically configures the bit in response to link > changes has been replaced by code that configures the bit once during > initialization time and then leaves the bit alone. > > For correctness, this patch also limits the use of the bit to those > devices where it is defined, namely devices before the 5705. This patch > also corrects the link polarity configurations for 5700 devices when > paired against a bcm5411 phy. > > Signed-off-by: Matt Carlson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Signed-off-by: Michael Chan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Applied, thanks. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
