well, actually the patch worked only partially...

the driver compiles, and registers properly, but doesn't seem to handle RPC correctly.

I have the following message :

when both fec and normal CPM ENET are compiled,
RPC: sendmsg returned error 101
portmap: RPC call returned error 101
Root-NFS: Unable to get mountd port number from server, using default

then a second atempt on the default port, with the same error.

I have captured no packets on any of the interfaces.

when I compile only with fec ( no CPM ENET )

it blocks at
Looking up port of RPC 100003/2 on 172.16.0.1
I still can't capture any packets,
the feth enable led isn't lit,
and the collision and Tx leds of the board FOR THE CPM are blinking continuously...

after a couple of seconds, the kernel starts scrolling
eth0: tx queue full!.

did I do something wrong ???
thx

Could you try the unpatched kernel, with a full duplex ethernet cable plugged into the FEC RJ45 connector when you boot the board ?
