Subject: [PATCH 9/18] spidernet: reset the card when an rxramfull is seen
Date: Thu, 7 Jun 2007 14:39:46 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070607193946.GI16077@austin.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20070607191707.GA7904@austin.ibm.com>


Some versions of the spider have a firmware bug, where the
RX ring sequencer goes crazy when the RX RAM on the device
fills up. Appearently the only viable wrkaround is a soft
reset of the card.
