Subject: Re: [PATCH] mv643xx_eth: fix byte order when checksum offload is enabled
Date: Sat, 19 Jan 2008 13:45:12 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080119204512.GA30006@farnsworth.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20080119202301.GA26826@farnsworth.org>
OK, after digesting Al Viro's comments on this, I agree with him
and retract this. These multiple byte swaps sure are confusing.
Byron, would you please resubmit?
Thanks,
-Dale
