There was a lot of discussion BEFORE the patch was posted from 2 people
who were having problems. Jay posted one fix, got a reply where it didn't
help, then posted the new patch with the following message:
| I think I might have a fix for this, and for Martin's problem as well. It
| appears my original patch didn't quite cover all the cases where this could
| happen in ugen.
|
| Could one (or both) of you try the attached patch, to see if it alleviates the
| problem? I guess it might not be easily reproducable for you, Bruce, but I
| think Martin could fairly consistently panic the system by running a program.
Unfortunately, there was only one reply to that, from 'Martin':
| > I think I might have a fix for this, and for Martin's problem as well.
|
| Not yet, Jay :)
|
| I have a new panic while executing my code (this time on first call!):
| panic: ugen_set_config: interface count failed
|
| trace still shows it's triggered by the ioctl().

| Martin
Then either I lost the thread, of the thread died a death. I sent this
message to current, CCing Jay in the hope that it would jog someones
memory.
After all, I read someone moaning on slashdot that the SpeedTouch USB
ADSL modem doesn't work with FreeBSD - with this patch it definitely does!
Hopefully Jay can shed some more light on it ?
Cheers,
Jamie
