From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: 9a4gl@9a0tcp.ampr.org (Tihomir Heidelberg) Subject: [PATCH] ax25 patches for 2.4.21 Date: Sat, 19 Jul 03 22:45:18 CEST Sender: linux-hams-owner@vger.kernel.org Message-ID: <7870@9A0TCP> Return-path: List-Id: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: linux-hams@vger.kernel.org Hi, I made some work on 2.4.21 kernel and put my patch available for testing.... patch is at: ftp://ham2.cc.fer.hr/pub/users/9a4gl file: 9a4gl-ax25-2421-20030719.patch on monday I am going on vacation, will be 3 weeks mostly without Internet... those who have time and want to try it, use it and please report me how it works on your machine.... especialy those who have oopses in ax25, please try it because patch fixes several problems that caused oops... patch should fix ax25 and netrom (rose not, because I never used that)... dama is not tested at all because I also never run dama... all fixes I applied to standard AX.25 protocols are also applied to dama stuff, so it should work but is not tested yet... if anyone have possibolity to test dama, I will appreciate reports how it works... also it add some extensions to support my linsv node, also MTU of 1580 can be selected when configuring kernel to support sending and receiving larger packets... if you do not need that (probably not), then do not select those options DMASCC driver modified so it can use software CRC, on S5/DMASCC there is a problem with hardware CRC.... if you use DMASCC driver and you see corrupted packets in monitor, receive corrupted text in terminal or have CRC errors in file transfers, you should enable software CRC for DMASCC driver in kernel 73 de Tihomir, 9a4gl@9a0tcp.ampr.org
