The tg3 driver is not the only device in the world that requires a timer based "ping" to work. The watchdog drivers and the softlockup detector are other instances which require a timer to not be delayed an unreasonable amount of time. Therefore TG3 is not unique in this regard, and I thus don't think it's worthwhile to change tg3 just to accomodate this broken behavior of the RT patches. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
