    Hi

    I have written ethernet driver and successfully verfied most of the
    entry points. Open, close, send, receive, ioctl functions & interrupt
    handler have been thoroughly verified. I have released the driver
    internally for developers in my company. They seems to have no problem.
     However, now I realized that there are couple of function still not
    touched or covered. One of them I have no clue to verify. That is,
    tx_timeout function. Could anyone point me or provide me some details
    on how to verify this tx_timeout function. I felt, while transferring a
    file I can disconnect the cable but that does not seems to invoke this
    function. One more I am thinking is reducing the time_out value to
    virtually to zero.

    Any suggestions and comments are welcome.

    thanks,
    adar
