We don't have any infrastructure to do that, even if it
was practical.

Hi,
I'm writing a program which receives ARP packets and have noticed that
broadcast ARP packets seem to come in with the destination hardware
address set as all zeros.
Whereas tethereal indicates that the packet has a broadcast MAC address.
My code:
int arp_open(struct intf *intf)
{
int as;

The 40-bit DMA workaround recently implemented for 5714, 5715, and
5780 needs to be expanded because there may be other tg3 devices
behind the EPB Express to PCIX bridge in the 5780 class device.
For example, some 4-port card or mother board designs have 5704 behind
the 5714.

Thanks Pete,
This is correct, the array should contain 3 elements. The bug was we were
accessing a 4th element ([3]) which did not exist. We should be modifying the
last element ([2]) instead.

Hi,
in smctr.c request_region() return value is not always checked.
Here is a simple patch to fix it.
Patch is against 2.6.16-rc6-git8.
