Dell has requested this fix to be included in 5.0 and it is on their weekly status watch list. RH Engineering attention requested. This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux major release. Product Management has requested further review of this request by Red Hat Engineering, for potential inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux Major release. This request is not yet committed for inclusion. My quick run in gdb seems to indicate that
if (ioctl (sock, SIOCGMIIPHY, &ifr) < 0) {
in mii_get_basic returns something other than ENODEV so that we treat the
device as a wireless device, That seems to happen for both lo and eth0 here.
On Dell's weekly watch list. Need engineering update on fix. Thanks. SIOCGMIIPHY finally defined as SIOCDEVPRIVATE in mii.h of gnome-nettool and the ioctl on SIOCDEVPRIVATE retriving from 0x89f0 instead of 0x8947. I tried with ioctl on 0x8947 and my link speed is showing up as 100BaseT4 Re Comment #4: no update on a fix available, sorry. With the information in comment #5 it appears we may just need to copy uptodate ioctl numbers from /usr/include/linux/sockios.h. I'll ask Chris to investigate when he is back. Mathias/Chris- Any update on this one ? Since you have a good idea on what the fix is, can one of you post patch and attempt to incorporate in RHEL5.0 ?? NOT A BLOCKER: Per telecon with Sue Denham (RH), Larry Troan (RH), John Hull (Dell) and Dale Kaisner (Dell) on 1/02/07, Dell does NOT view this bug as a BLOCKER for RHEL5 GA. Setting 5.1 flag=? and resetting 5.1 flag. Any update on the patch mentioned in the comment #6 ? This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux maintenance release. Product Management has requested further review of this request by Red Hat Engineering, for potential inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux Update release for currently deployed products. This request is not yet committed for inclusion in an Update release. Created attachment 156553 [details]
Changes done to mii.h and util-mii.c
Patch for review.

Removing 5.1 flag and setting 5.2 flag to ?.
This is a bug so not setting Feature Tracker bug "Dell5.2FB."
Raising priority for 5.2.
The patch has been accepted upstream. Pls refer to the bugzilla BZ 451925 on gnome bugzilla below. http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=451925 and http://svn.gnome.org/viewvc/gnome-nettool/trunk/src/ Rev 687 which fixes the BZ 451925. This bugzilla was reviewed by QE as a non-FasTrack request. It has since been proposed for FasTrack. The qa_ack has been reset. QE needs to re-review this bugzilla for FasTrack. This should be fixed in the latest release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6; if it's not, please re-open so we can prioritize and schedule it. Thanks! |
