Dear Simon Kagstrom,
In message 20090702150401.06ded440@marrow.netinsight.se Simon Kagstrom wrote:

U-boot might use non-8-byte-aligned addresses for sending
data, which
the kwgbe_send doesn't accept (bootp does this for me). This patch copies the data to be sent to a temporary buffer if it is
non-aligned.
Ack, This is useful patch for kirkwood egiga driver, I have tested it -possible pls get this in.
On the other hand- I had a suggestion to do this in upper layer (i.e. in net/eth.c) so that every client driver can benefit from this. But we can do this latter too.
Regards.. Prafulla . .
