Subject: [BUG/PATCH] iphase ATM driver (Oops - Div0)
Date: Tue, 13 Nov 2001 22:43:20 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3BF193F8.FE8C579@internetwork-ag.de> (raw)

Hi,

please find attached a fix for a nasty bug in the iphase ATM NIC. If te max_sdu
exceeds the limit the internal structure ia_vcc is freed BUT the pointer in the
vcc struct is NOT been reset.  This results in a Div0 error in ia_close
(ctimeout = 300000 / ia_vcc->pcr) - clearing the referencing pointer fixes the
problem.
I've also diabled the "Misaligned SKB" check since it works fine w/o it
AND re-aligning is to expensive if it works (I know, jumping to conclusions, but
it works fine on my boxes)...
Could you please - at least - apply the pointer fix?

Thanks,

Immanuel
