I downloaded that driver. The results are pretty similar:

with 'debug=7':

3c59x.c 19Oct00 Donald Becker and others
http://www.scyld.com/network/vortex.html
eth0: 3Com 3c905 Boomerang 100baseTx at 0xc400,  00:60:08:0b:99:9e, IRQ 19
  Internal config register is 16302d8, transceivers 0xe040.
  8K word-wide RAM 3:5 Rx:Tx split, autoselect/MII interface.
  MII transceiver found at address 24, status 786d.
  Enabling bus-master transmits and whole-frame receives.

ping works.

When I unplug the cable:

eth0: interrupt, status e401, latency 8, cur_rx 317, dirty_rx 317
eth0: In interrupt loop, status e401.
  In boomerang_rx(), status e001, rx_status 8000.
Receiving packet size 60 status 803c.
eth0: exiting interrupt, status e000.
eth0: vortex_close() status e000, Tx status 00.
eth0: vortex close stats: rx_nocopy 137 rx_copy 181 tx_queued 264 Rx
pre-checksummed 0.
bridge-eth0: lost peer eth0
bridge-eth0: down

Ping does not work.

and with 'options=0 debug=7':
eth0: 3Com 3c905 Boomerang 100baseTx at 0xc400,  00:60:08:0b:99:9e, IRQ 19
  Internal config register is 16302d8, transceivers 0xe040.
  8K word-wide RAM 3:5 Rx:Tx split, autoselect/MII interface.
  Media override to transceiver type 0 (10baseT).
  Enabling bus-master transmits and whole-frame receives.
eth0: Media override to transceiver 0 (10baseT).
eth0: Initial media type 10baseT.
eth0: vortex_open() InternalConfig 010302d8.
eth0: vortex_open() irq 19 media status 8820.
eth0:  Filling in the Rx ring.
bridge-eth0: found peer eth0
bridge-eth0: up

Ping does not work after insmod and ifconfig.


With this driver, the mii-diag -w output when unplugging and replugging is
identical to the 2.2.18pre19 one.
