Message-ID: <tkrat.afb5d03352e6f965@s5r6.in-berlin.de> Date: Mon, 24 Mar 2008 20:57:12 +0100 (CET) From: Stefan Richter <stefanr@...6.in-berlin.de> To: linux1394-devel@...ts.sourceforge.net cc: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Subject: [PATCH] firewire: fix synchronization of gap counts Fix: The fact that nodes had different gap counts would be overlooked if the bus manager code would pick gap count 63 because of beta repeaters or because of very large hop counts. In this case, the bus manager code would miss that it actually has to send the PHY config packet with gap count 63. Related trivial changes: Use bool for an int used as bool, touch up some comments.
