Hi Cory,

I encountered a problem on custom hardware (EP9301-based) during a TFTP download. The transfer gets stuck and the driver prints continuously this message:

eth.c: 711: eth_rx(): packet rx error, status B0020100 800003AC

I still working with the driver included in the patch you released last november. So I had a look to the ml to see if there are news about u-boot and I found this new patch:
//www.freelists.org/archives/linux-cirrus/04-2006/msg00008.html


Also I read these messages about proposed fixes to the ethernet driver by Hiroshi Ito:

//www.freelists.org/archives/linux-cirrus/05-2006/msg00016.html
//www.freelists.org/archives/linux-cirrus/05-2006/msg00023.html

I'd like to update the ethernet driver with the one you released last April.
Do you think the error I got is due to the old (bogus) driver?
Did you test and validate the patches proposed by Hiroshi Ito? If yes, is it possible to have a patch including these new corrections?




Thanks in advance,
llandre
