Ethernet controller not starting

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I'm working on porting an ARM board from linux-3.10 to linux-3.12 (now
the latest LTS kernel).
I found that Ethernet controller on the board no longer comes up on linux-3.12.
I was able to bisect the issue I'm having to the following commit:

Can anyone offer any suggestions on what I should be looking for to
fix this on my board?

Thanks,
Jon
