Re: [U-Boot-Users] SCC Ethernet and "Linux crashes by early packets" ???

the CHANGELOG contains the lines

• Make sure SCC Ethernet is always stopped by the time we boot Linux to avoid Linux crashes by early packets coming in.

in "Changes for U-Boot 1.0.2".

My two question:

1.) How can I find out which changes in the CVS do excactly this?

Checking the CVS logs?

Try: cvs diff -r1.3 -r1.4 post/ether.c

2.) Do we need the same with 8xx FEC Ethernet?

I don't think so. Note that the ethernet interface was left in a non- stopped state by the POST code. Normal network use will (should) correctly shut down the interface.
