Hi Tom, I have tried netconsole on the board, but it is also not working. I have used "ethereal" to capture packets, but while booting using netconsole, no packet transmission/reception is happening.
When I tried with kgdboe, ARP packets are being sent from the host side, but it's not handled in the target. (Again, found using ethereal) Does it mean that the netpoll implementation is wrong? In the netpoll function implementation, I did three things, 1. Disable irq 2. Poll for packets 3. Enable irq For debugging, I put a printk() statement in the netpoll function, but it's not printed anywhere in the boot log. I even tried with an infinite while loop also, expecting the kernel to get stuck somewhere, but it booted normally. Can you tell me what modification I have to do in the netpoll implementation?
