From f8be7d659c45720edb91503d2a480fc198e7ee9d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Joe Hershberger Date: Fri, 3 Aug 2012 10:59:08 +0000 Subject: net: Improve the speed of netconsole Previously u-boot would initialize the network interface for every network operation and then shut it down again. This makes sense for most operations where the network in not known to be needed soon after the operation is complete. In the case of netconsole, it will use the network for every interaction with the shell or every printf. This means that the network is being reinitialized very often. On many devices, this intialization is very slow. This patch checks for consecutive netconsole actions and leaves the ethernet hardware initialized between them. It will still behave the same old way for all other network operations and any time another network operation happens between netconsole operations.
