Subject: [PATCH 2.6] ibmveth bug fixes 3/4
Date: Tue, 10 Aug 2004 13:06:12 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <41190E94.40100@us.ibm.com> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 300 bytes --]

Andrew,

This patch checks for the LongBusy return code from the hypervisor, and 
retries the operation (which is what the hypervisor expects the driver 
to do). Please apply.
