Subject: ath5k phy0: unsupported jumbo
Date: Sat, 23 Jan 2010 04:51:11 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100123105111.GA24790@progeny.tock> (raw)

Hi,

Every now and then, I get a few messages like the following:

[11316.285087] ath5k phy0: unsupported jumbo
[14256.975594] ath5k phy0: unsupported jumbo
[26376.342970] ath5k phy0: unsupported jumbo

drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath5k/base.c tells me this is unlikely (or at
least the slow path), and that it means that after calling the
sc->ah->ah_proc_rx_desc(sc->ah, ds, &rs) callback, rs.rs_more was
nonzero.

What I still don’t know:

 - So, what happened?
 - Does this indicate some subtle misconfiguration?
 - Is this a hardware bug?
 - Is this a driver bug?

The network generally works great, so there is no cause for me to
worry, but still it would give me some peace of mind to know.

In turn, I would gladly write a Documentation/networking/ath5k.txt or
a comment near drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath5k/base.c:1817 for others
to refer to.

Thoughts?
Jonathan
