Do you really think that's a trivial patch?

I have a different fix for simplified mode in my QEMU tree:

http://repo.or.cz/w/qemu/ar7.git/blob/HEAD:/hw/eepro100.c

That version is implemented according to the Intel specifications
and avoids hacks for specific guest drivers.

Maybe you can give it a try.

If it works for you, I can put the changes needed for simplified mode
in a patch for QEMU git master.

Stefan Weil

It's only three lines plus comments, but ok small != trivial.

My fix isn't a hack for a specific guest driver, but is also in
accordance with the
intel specs.

I have, it does work.
Overall the code look better to me, but one thing irritates me:
The comment on line 821 contradicts the trace on 830 and 833.
in fact i don't understand the code from 820 to 340. It seems to me it should
handle extended flexible TCBs, but if it does what does the code
following line 855 do?

Anything new about this one-year-old patch?

No, there isn't, sorry. I still have to send a patch which merges my
modifications into official QEMU.
And I also still wish a good set of test cases which can be used for all
nic emulations.

My version of eepro100.c is in http://repo.or.cz/w/qemu/ar7.git.
