linux-toradex.git/drivers/net, branch v2.6.23.12 Linux kernel for Apalis and Colibri modules forcedeth boot delay fix 2007-12-14T17:50:54+00:00 Ayaz Abdulla aabdulla@nvidia.com 2007-11-21T23:02:58+00:00 8d88a7d70fee421a290730ebd58a15230d609617 patch 9e555930bd873d238f5f7b9d76d3bf31e6e3ce93 in mainline. Fix a long boot delay in the forcedeth driver. During initialization, the timeout for the handshake between mgmt unit and driver can be very long. The patch reduces the timeout by eliminating a extra loop around the timeout logic.

ipw2200: batch non-user-requested scan result notifications 2007-11-26T17:42:33+00:00 Dan Williams dcbw@redhat.com 2007-10-09T17:55:24+00:00 6bb559a3239d0e7ca53c54ba7a6e8105c855dff3 patch 0b5316769774d1dc2fdd702e095f9e6992af269a in mainline. ipw2200 makes extensive use of background scanning when unassociated or down. Unfortunately, the firmware sends scan completed events many times per second, which the driver pushes directly up to userspace. This needlessly wakes up processes listening for wireless events many times per second. Batch together scan completed events for non-user-requested scans and send them up to userspace every 4 seconds. Scan completed events resulting from an SIOCSIWSCAN call are pushed up without delay.
