Modified files:
sys/i386/isa if_wi.c
Log:
Patch the WaveLAN/IEEE driver to detect and reject oversized received
frames (or just insane received packet lengths generated due to errors
reading from the NIC's internal buffers). Anything too large to fit
safely into an mbuf cluster buffer is discarded and an error logged.
I have not observed this problem with my own cards, but on user has
reported it and adding the sanity test seems reasonable in any case.
Problem noted and patch provided by: Per Andersson <per@cdg.chalmers.se>
