Subject: [net-2.6 PATCH 2/2] qlge: Fix firmware mailbox command timeout.
Date: Wed, 28 Oct 2009 11:39:21 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1256755161-29606-3-git-send-email-ron.mercer@qlogic.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1256755161-29606-1-git-send-email-ron.mercer@qlogic.com>
The mailbox command process would only process a maximum of 5 unrelated
firmware events while waiting for it's command completion status.
It should process an unlimited number of events while waiting for a maximum of 5 seconds.
