I think I answered all your questions in the revised commit messages of the v2 patchset (and then some) except this last one. Enic doesn't do any checking on Rx that buffers are greater than the MTU since it would affect performance. However if a packet is bigger than a buffer and Rx scatter is disabled, the packet will be dropped and 'imissed' incremented. Thanks, Johnd
