But the "problem" isn't in usbnet, it's in the HCD. You focussed on usbnet, not the problem site. Better would be to describe the the problem; as I've put it: buggy HCD, wrongly insisting on adding alignment restrictions to buffers. > > > I don't actually see a patch I could ACK or NAK; > > got URL? > > First message in this thread : > http://marc.info/?l=linux-usb&m=128318949614553 Have you verified that still works with for example EHCI, OHCI, and UHCI? It looked more or less OK to me, except for the weak test descriptions: they're just verifying that HCDs don't wrongly restrict the data buffers. Fix the test description to emphasize the right thing (HCD not usbnet) and I can see me acking the result. > > Regards, > > Martin -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-usb" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
