Problem in GMAC ?

From: FASSINO Jean-Philippe <hidden>

I think there are a small probleme in gmac drivers.
The size of received packet is not substracted by
CRC length. You can see that with ethereal on all Linux machine.
Then minimum packet is 64, but it must be 60.
And you can see that all packet is 4 bytes too long.

Is it normal or not ???

That's quite possible, I was not too sure what to do about it ;)

I beleive I should just substract 4 from the size of all Rx packets. This
problem have biten MOL too lately.
