Hi Andrew, Just following up on my patch regarding the uninitialized access fix in mii_nway_restart(). As I mentioned in my previous message, how about an approach similar to the patch for ch9200_mdio_read() for get_mac_address() where we immediately check the return value of each control_read() call and return an error if any call fails? This way we don't continue if failure occurs. If you're good with this approach, should I submit a patch v2?
Yes, this would be good. Thanks Andrew
