3c59x: shorten timer period for slave devices 2012-02-14T21:28:23+00:00 Eric Dumazet eric.dumazet@gmail.com 2012-02-14T10:27:09+00:00 3013dc0cceb9baaf25d5624034eeaa259bf99004 Jean Delvare reported bonding on top of 3c59x adapters was not detecting network cable removal fast enough. 3c59x indeed uses a 60 seconds timer to check link status if carrier is on, and 5 seconds if carrier is off.
