cassini/niu/sun*: Move the Sun drivers

2011-08-11T09:33:43+00:00

Moves the Sun drivers into drivers/net/ethernet/sun/ and make the necessary Kconfig and Makefile changes. Oliver Hartkopp suggested removing the sun* prefix on the driver names. This type of change I will leave up to the driver maintainers. CC: Sam Creasey CC: Adrian Sun CC: Benjamin Herrenscmidt Signed-off-by: Jeff Kirsher

drivers/net: Omit check for multicast bit in netdev_for_each_mc_addr

2011-07-08T16:03:20+00:00

There is no need to check for the address being a multicast address in the netdev_for_each_mc_addr loop, so remove it. This patch covers all remaining network drivers still containing such a check. Cc: Joe Perches Signed-off-by: Tobias Klauser Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

drivercore: revert addition of of_match to struct device

2011-05-18T18:32:23+00:00

Commit b826291c, "drivercore/dt: add a match table pointer to struct device" added an of_match pointer to struct device to cache the of_match_table entry discovered at driver match time. This was unsafe because matching is not an atomic operation with probing a driver. If two or more drivers are attempted to be matched to a driver at the same time, then the cached matching entry pointer could get overwritten. This patch reverts the of_match cache pointer and reworks all users to call of_match_device() directly instead. Signed-off-by: Grant Likely

ethtool: cosmetic: Use ethtool ethtool_cmd_speed API

2011-04-29T21:03:01+00:00

This updates the network drivers so that they don't access the ethtool_cmd::speed field directly, but use ethtool_cmd_speed() instead. For most of the drivers, these changes are purely cosmetic and don't fix any problem, such as for those 1GbE/10GbE drivers that indirectly call their own ethtool get_settings()/mii_ethtool_gset(). The changes are meant to enforce code consistency and provide robustness with future larger throughputs, at the expense of a few CPU cycles for each ethtool operation. All drivers compiled with make allyesconfig ion x86_64 have been updated. Tested: make allyesconfig on x86_64 + e1000e/bnx2x work Signed-off-by: David Decotigny Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ethtool: Use full 32 bit speed range in ethtool's set_settings

2011-04-29T21:03:00+00:00

This makes sure the ethtool's set_settings() callback of network drivers don't ignore the 16 most significant bits when ethtool calls their set_settings(). All drivers compiled with make allyesconfig on x86_64 have been updated. Signed-off-by: David Decotigny Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: convert sunhme/sungem network drivers to hw_features

2011-04-02T03:58:37+00:00

Side effects: - TX offloads (HW csum, scatter-gather) can be toggled now - RX checksum is reported correctly now (it's always active) Signed-off-by: Michał Mirosław Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

dt/net: Eliminate users of of_platform_{,un}register_driver

2011-02-28T20:22:44+00:00

Get rid of users of of_platform_driver in drivers/net. The of_platform_{,un}register_driver functions are going away, so the users need to be converted to using the platform_bus_type directly. Signed-off-by: Grant Likely

net: Fix drivers advertising HW_CSUM feature to use csum_start

2010-12-16T22:43:15+00:00

Some drivers are using skb_transport_offset(skb) instead of skb->csum_start for NETIF_F_HW_CSUM offload. This does not matter now, but if someone implements checksumming of encapsulated packets then this will break silently. TSO output paths are left as they are, since they are for IP+TCP only (might be worth converting though). Signed-off-by: Michał Mirosław Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

drivers/net: return operator cleanup

2010-09-27T01:34:29+00:00

Change "return (EXPR);" to "return EXPR;" return is not a function, parentheses are not required. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
