[Prism54-devel] problems in big endian platform - cannot handle oid 0x00000400

[Jean-Baptiste Note]

Hello Olaf,

Sorry if this was not clear, but the current 'set of patches' to be
applied against current SVN is the following one :

http://jbnote.free.fr/prism54/patch-combined-2005-05-25.patch

> eth1: Out of memory, cannot handle oid 0x080002ff
> eth1: timeout waiting for mgmt response 100, trigging device
> eth1: timeout waiting for mgmt response
> eth1: Out of memory, cannot handle oid 0x02000010
> eth1: timeout waiting for mgmt response 100, trigging device
> eth1: timeout waiting for mgmt response
> eth1: Out of memory, cannot handle oid 0x05000012
> eth1: timeout waiting for mgmt response 100, trigging device
> eth1: timeout waiting for mgmt response
> eth1: mgt_commit has failed. Restart the device

Very interesting ! I'd really like to know if the above patch fixes these
issues. The OID seem fine, we again hit a problem of bad conversion of
the frame length. Or the device bug Rainer reported.

Please patch it with patch above. I hope i didn't mess something
up... The patchset will be enhanced and hopefully integrated in SVN, as
time allows (and it does not allow much now :( )

I hope it compiles fine on 2.4, which i have not tested. Please tell me
if something's wrong.

JB
