if it is in 10Mbps mode and gets certain types of garbage prior to the packet header. The work-around involves reprogramming the multicast filter if nothing is received in some number of seconds (currently set at 15). As a side effect, implemented complete support for multicasting rather than the previous 'receive all multicasts' hack, since we now have the ability to program the filter table. Fixed a serious bug which crept in with the timeout() changes; the cookie was only saved on the first timeout() call in fxp_init() and wasn't updated in the most common place in fxp_stats_update() when the timeout was rescheduled. This bug would have resulted in an eventual panic if fxp_stop() was called (which happens when any interface flags are changed, for example). Fixed a bug in Alpha support that would have caused the TxCB descriptor chain to span a page boundry, causing serious problems if the pages didn't happen to be contiguous. Removed some gratuitous bit masking that was left over from an older implementation. Fixed a bug where too much was copied from the configuration template, spilling over into memory that followed it. Fixed handling of if_timer...it was cleared too early in some cases.
$Id$ ---------------- The enclosed drivers should be considered beta-test software. These drivers are in no way supported by Digital Equipment. See the disclaimers in the sources for more information. Please be aware that Digital does not employee me to write drivers for FreeBSD. This kit contains one driver: de DEC DE435 PCI NIC or compatible See README.de for information and installation instruction specific to this driver. Could you please send me the startup messages in the boot long along with the type of your PC once the driver configures? If you have any problems, comments, suggestions, rant or raves, don't hesitate to send me mail @ thomas@lkg.dec.com. Lastly, if you change or modify the code, I want context diffs of your changes. I want this to the canonical DEC EtherWORKS driver kit for FreeBSD, NetBSD, BSD/386, and any other BSD based O/S. Please make sure your diffs are approriate conditionalized.
