Re: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH 3/5] Add support for receiving via receive buffe

Subject: Re: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH 3/5] Add support for receiving via receive buffers. While the Intel documentation claims this is unsupported, the OS X drivers use it, causing an assertion failure since rx buffer size is 0.

It's not really that bad, attached is a patch that changes all of them
so no structs are directly read from/written to memory.
It also includes a change to make the statistics dumping actually work
(currently the driver never gets notified that they were dumped, and for
the 82558 and 82559 devices parts of the statistics were left
uninitialized. I know this really belongs in a separate patch but as
long as I don't know when or if ever my patches get accepted I am too
lazy for that.
For now I allow myself to misuse this list mostly as a backup for my
code :-P
