From 1d2101a712b3b7281a19ff6d7bfc16c2ce9d3998 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Bruce Allan Date: Fri, 22 Jul 2011 06:21:56 +0000 Subject: e1000e: Spurious interrupts & dropped packets with 82577/8/9 in half-duplex On 82577/8/9 in half-duplex when a received packet is passed from the PHY to the MAC, if too many preamble octects are stripped from the packet before arriving at the MAC, it can be misintrepeted as an in-band message rather than an actual frame. For example, if the frame contents resembled an interrupt request in-band message, it would trigger a false interrupt. In most cases, the packet is just dropped. By reducing the number of preamble octets stripped from the beginning of the frame when passing it from the PHY to the MAC, the MAC will interpret the frame properly. An additional uses of the magic PHY_REG(770, 16) have been updated with a define introduced with this patch.
