| + | I took another look at open, and I'm not happy with the structure as it was; | ||
| + | |||
| + | It's again been redefined to this (but it's very likely to change by tomorrow). | ||

| + | Plan for tomorrow: | ||
| + | <code> | ||
| + | /Re-outline existing skge_open in much more detail | ||
| + | |Compare above outline with the intended structure for skge_open | ||
| + | |Separate tx and rx memory sections; perform two malloc_dma's instead of one; | ||
| + | \Each tx and rx section of open should be completely separate | ||
| + | |||
| + | Re-write skge_open (and all it's child functions)in it's new form and outline | ||
| + | Specificly: | ||
| + | - Change all instances of netdev_priv (as now netdev_priv is an instance of skge_private, not skge_port) | ||
| + | - Enumerate all access to the tx and rx rings and make sure they are using separated access methods. | ||
| + | </code> | ||
