Though, disabling the controller might take quite awhile, and so the netdev watchdog might get upset: NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth2 (ucc_geth): transmit queue 0 timed out ------------[ cut here ]------------ Badness at c02729a8 [verbose debug info unavailable] NIP: c02729a8 LR: c02729a8 CTR: c01b6088 REGS: c0451c40 TRAP: 0700 Not tainted (2.6.32-trunk-8360e) [...] NIP [c02729a8] dev_watchdog+0x280/0x290 LR [c02729a8] dev_watchdog+0x280/0x290 Call Trace: [c0451cf0] [c02729a8] dev_watchdog+0x280/0x290 (unreliable) [c0451d50] [c00377c4] run_timer_softirq+0x164/0x224 [c0451da0] [c0032a38] __do_softirq+0xb8/0x13c [c0451df0] [c00065cc] do_softirq+0xa0/0xac [c0451e00] [c003280c] irq_exit+0x7c/0x9c [c0451e10] [c00640c4] __ipipe_sync_stage+0x248/0x24c [...] This patch fixes the issue by detaching the netdev during the time we change the configuration.
