Dear "Reinhard Meyer (-VC)",
In message 4C0B85D8.4070508@emk-elektronik.de you wrote:
is this patch going to be accepted, or is someone insisting that only my port shall return the number of controllers initialized?
I don't understand what you mean by "only my port". Ben's comment that board_eth_init() is supposed to retrurn the number of successfully initialized controllers has been standard policy for a pretty long time, and many boards do so.
Eventually the boards you compared against are older ones, and have not been maintained well, so they misbehave in this regard?
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk

Testing can show the presense of bugs, but not their absence.
