Subject: Patch: Pass parameters to xirc2ps_cs via kernel command line
Date: Wed, 17 Jan 2001 22:28:21 +1100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200101171128.f0HBSLx31234@typhaon.pacific.net.au> (raw)
Alan,
Looking forward to your talk tomorrow at linux.conf.au.
Here's an addition for drivers/net/pcmcia/xirc2ps_cs.c dedicated to all the
guys who were playing flood-ping-the-broadcast in the networking room
downstairs at linux.conf.au, so that I can specify lockup_hack = 1 in my fully
non-modular kernel and not have my ethernet lock up under extreme load :-)
(relative to: 2.4.0-ac9)

It occurs to me it would appear relatively trivial to write a "default" __setup
function for anything with module parameters (viz, xirc2ps_cs.lockup_hack=1).
Would a patch to that effect be likely to be accepted?
David.
