Hello,
I have applied the patch from http://lkml.org/lkml/2003/7/16/88 manually
to 2.6.7 (also works on 2.6.{8,9}) and have been using it since then.
Attached is a diff against 2.6.9.

Two comments:
1) Please include a signed-off-by line, as per
http://linux.yyz.us/patch-format.html
and
http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/tpp.txt
2) Please use ethtool to enable/disable WOL. No need for a module option.

Want to change the MODULE_PARM to new-style module_param() calls, too?
Thanks,
Rusty.

Since I don't exactly know what this means and currently don't have the
time to find out I don't think so.
And if WoL should be done using ethtool, my patch should be ignored and
the one of Daniele Venzano (posted to [email protected]) should be
considered.
(Will gather some more background information before posting a patch
next time ;) )

Just added to the TODO list ;-)
I'm acting as maintainer for the sis900 driver and the list of the TODO
os growing at an awesome speed.
What I'm really lacking is some piece of technical documentation for the
chip. The WoL support depends on this, because I don't know how to check
for the hardware support for it.
For now I'll make available my patch on the sis900 page[1] that uses
ethtool and seems to work.

The sis900 hardware is based on the NatSemi register layout:
