Subject: [PATCH 4/4] forcedeth: add tx pause limit
Date: Wed, 06 Aug 2008 12:16:11 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4899CE4B.1000606@nvidia.com> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 211 bytes --]

This patch adds support for limiting the number of tx pause frames to a 
default of 8. Previously, hardware would send out continuous stream of 
pause frames.
