104 | It was added in rS277943. Based on the commit message I still think it's wrong. | |
314 | In the report that led to rS295210 there was only an issue on interface 1 and 2, not interface 0. I suspect the above will fix the issue. The reported is listed as a reviewer on this patch so it can be tested before being committed. From my reading of the grub efi network driver code It looks like it depends on the exclusive flag so I would expect it to just be an issue where we were trying to use the wrong handle. |
This current diff doesn't change netbooting for me, it's even worse because as it can't open the network device in exclusive mode it cannot netboot.
Andrew sent me this patch to test instead : http://www.pastebin.ca/3379018
This works for netbooting my HP laptop and definitly increase the speed.
