Hi,
I am developing a driver which reads some data from the serial port in the
raw mode. For doing the same i do a call to which fails. The call to
our_ioctl for get serial data fails with return value -14 which is EBADADDR.
The same read works if we send a direct read request from an application

Ok, I have decided the problem lays in via-rhine.c, the ethernet driver
for my card. The second boot finds the mac address as 00's all the time,
regardless of whether the driver is compiled as a module, or monolith.

Regarding previous posts i've made on this subject, it turns out that
using a card with this chipset (i assume all cards - i've only tried a
DFE-530TX) will only reset on a cold boot, and are upset when booted to
windows (it causes them to not respond in linux) A cold boot fixes the

Can you explain what this meas? Fake an SCSI device and use the SCSI driver

Hi,
We have the current problem of ide dma possibly tossing out a complete
request, when we hit a dma timout. In this case, what we really want to
do is retry the request in pio mode and revert to normal dma operations
later again.
This patch catches the dma timout. It clears the dma engine, tur

a fresh reboot and spark, pop, fizz, plop...
Seems there is a bug in sr_scat
