These words show me that net/eth.c has "eth_send" and drivers/net/rtl8019.c 
also has "eth_send" function as the same name.
My board use RTL8019AS ethernet controller,s3c44b0 CPU.
i couldn`t figure out what is wrong with the code and how to fix it,Thanks a 
lot for any suggestion
It seems to me that the rtl8019 driver was never updated according to
the eth_device stucture (I think it was the introduction of
CONFIG_NET_MULTI).
Network drivers must not expose global functions, and instead of that
they must set their callbacks in a struct eth_device and register itself
with eth_register().
Anyway, I do not find any board in actual u-boot code using this driver.
It seems to me like dead code...
