plip.device 38.12 - bug fix by RJ James to plip.device 38.11 by O Wagner.
38.12 fixes a bug in S2_DEVICEQUERY which assumed the SizeAvailable field
contained the number of bytes of the 'Common information' fields so it
would return a SizeSupplied smaller than it should have. The S2R2 spec
states SizeAvail includes the 'Standard information' fields as well.
I can't say what it fixes in regard to Envoy as that's under NDA, and I
don't know what effect it will have with the likes of AmiTCP, please post
your results in comp.sys.amiga.networking with something like 'PLIP 38.12'
in the subject.
Only the appropriate source code has been modified and revision number
bumped, all other docs are as supplied in the 38.11 release. A complied
version of the 38.12 plip.device is also included, this was built with the
SAS/C Compiler 6.55 and Assembler 6.50.
I'm not doing any more work on plip.device since Martin J. Laubach
<mjl@CSlab.tuwien.ac.at> is working on making it faster and has fixed
things like the configuration aswell as the bug I found simultaneously,
this has been released for those who may benefit from it until Martin
releases his.
