Hi all,
I've found unexpected code inside of smc_send_packet() in file drivers/smc91111.c (near line 585-590):
/* send the packet length ( +6 for status, length and ctl byte ) and the status word ( set to zeros ) */ #ifdef USE_32_BIT SMC_outl ((length + 6) << 16, SMC91111_DATA_REG); #else SMC_outw (0, SMC91111_DATA_REG); /* send the packet length ( +6 for status words, length, and ctl */ SMC_outw ((length + 6), SMC91111_DATA_REG); #endif
This code assembles the header of a data frame for transmission. My SMSC manual says about the BYTE COUNTER: "... alway even ...", Hmm , this code will put in even and odd length arguments. "length" should be replaced with "(length & 0xfffe)", the same code at top of function for page number calculation.
What's your opinion?
Best regards
