Prev: x86: Reserve legacy VGA MMIO area for x86_64 as well as x86_32
Next: [PATCH 3/3] rtl8187se: Do not send NULL BSSID events when not associated
From: Samuel Ortiz on 9 Apr 2010 18:40
Toggling the link carrier is a non sense and is the grossest locking I can
think of. Moreover, it's giving a completely inaccurate status to userspace
who could for example decide to turn the interface down on carrier off
detection.
