Re: [U-Boot] Timeout in tftp.c

12 May 2009


      Dear Achim Ehrlich,
In message 4A0969FC.2060504@taskit.de you wrote:
...
The timeout for lost packages in tftp.c is defined to 5000 msecs. But 
when setting the timeout get_timer(0) is called in NetSetTimeout in net.c.
But on AT91 the timer code returns usecs and not msecs resulting in a 
timeout of 5 ms instead of 5 secs, which is kind of short. I looked in 
the timer code of other ARM-based platforms and they seem to use 
usec-based timers as well.
Of course I can change the defined timeout in tftp.c to one second or 
so, but that doesn't seem to be the right way to solve this issue.
Any suggestions or ideas or do I miss something here?
Any chance that you are using an old version of U-Boot?
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
