Already killed.  I think it went in just after 2.5.46 was released.

mii-tool -F 100baseTx-FD eth0

does not work in 2.5 while working fine in 2.4.
What should I do? Fix eth driver?
Use never mii-tool or equivalent?

Dave, Arnaldo, I can attempt to fix this if you think
it's feasible to receive my possibly buggy newcomer code
instead of fixing it yourself. In this case, feel free
to apply a cluebat as to what should be done / where should
I look for example of 'new protocol handler' ;)

I know that plans are underway to push all this stuff to early
userspace but I need it *now* if I want to test 2.5 at this time.

I suspect you already seen these lines of code,
but here they are (2.5.47):

net/core/dev.c:
static int deliver_to_old_ones(struct packet_type *pt,
                               struct sk_buff *skb, int last)
{
        int ret = NET_RX_DROP;

        if (!last) {
                skb = skb_clone(skb, GFP_ATOMIC);
                if (!skb)
                        goto out;
        }
        if (skb_is_nonlinear(skb) && skb_linearize(skb, GFP_ATOMIC))
                goto out_kfree;

#if CONFIG_SMP
        /* Old protocols did not depened on BHs different of NET_BH and
           TIMER_BH - they need to be fixed for the new assumptions.
         */
        print_symbol("fix old protocol handler %s!\n", (unsigned long)pt->func);
#endif


net/ipv4/ipconfig.c:
...
static int ic_bootp_recv(struct sk_buff *skb, struct net_device *dev, struct packet_type *pt);

static struct packet_type bootp_packet_type __initdata = {
        .type = __constant_htons(ETH_P_IP),
        .func = ic_bootp_recv,
};
...
static int __init ic_bootp_recv(struct sk_buff *skb, struct net_device *dev, struct packet_type *pt)
{
        struct bootp_pkt *b = (struct bootp_pkt *) skb->nh.iph;
        struct iphdr *h = &b->iph;
        struct ic_device *d;
        int len;

        /* One reply at a time, please. */
        spin_lock(&ic_recv_lock);

        /* If we already have a reply, just drop the packet */
        if (ic_got_reply)
                goto drop;

Addressing only this specific issue, and not the larger $thread issue...

Depends on what driver and version you are using.  It is preferred these 
days to force the media using ethtool.  But that said, if a NIC driver 
allows you to force in 2.4 and not in 2.5, that definitely sounds like 
an eth driver bug.

That's news to me.  "preferred" by whom?  certainly not by real users ??
It should just work.

You missed quoting the operation he was performing:  forcing the media 
using mii-tool.  He was forcing the media type by hand.  It's impossible 
for that to just-work.

I wasn't talking about setting media in general...

Thanks.  I misread your statement then.

ethtool is the preferred way to modify any ethernet device parameter
whatsoever.  It is the king of net device APIs for such operations.
