Message-ID: <14385191E87B904DBD836449AA30269D021A4B@MORGANITE.micrel.com> Date: Fri, 15 Jan 2010 19:04:39 -0800 From: "Ha, Tristram" <Tristram.Ha@...rel.Com> To: "Dave Miller" <davem@...emloft.net> Cc: <netdev@...r.kernel.org>, <linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org> Subject: [PATH 2.6.33 2/3] net: Kconfig change for Micrel KSZ884X driver From: Tristram Ha <Tristram.Ha@...rel.com> Add Micrel KSZ8841/KSZ8842 PCI Ethernet chip support. Some users like to use KSZ8842 switch to run Spanning Tree Protocol. As a result a hardware STP support was implemented so that the host does not waste CPU time forwarding each and every packet.
