Hi,
The attached file updates Linux 2.5.3 generic HDLC, please apply.
The patch includes: - new SIOCDEVICE ioctl for setting all protocol and hardware parameters of (HDLC) network devices, instead of using PRIVATE netdev ioctls (details in hdlc.h and respective hdlc_*.c and/or N2 + C101 drivers) - the HDLC code is now split into hdlc_generic.c, hdlc_fr.c, hdlc_cisco.c etc. files, - all protocol parameters (timeouts etc.) are (should/aim) now configurable via SIOCDEVICE ioctl, - other updates and bugfixes, - farsync update from Bob Dunlop, - dscc4 update from Francois Romieu.
There is binary and source incompatibility with 2.4 version - users require new sethdlc utility.
Thank you. -- Krzysztof Halasa Network Administrator [unhandled content-type:application/x-gzip] | |
