wan: remove sbni/granch driver

2021-08-03T12:05:26+00:00

The driver was merged in 1999 and has only ever seen treewide cleanups since then, with no indication whatsoever that anyone has actually had access to hardware for testing the patches. >From the information in the link below, it appears that the hardware is for some leased line system in Russia that has since been discontinued, and useless without any remote end to connect to. As the driver still feels like a Linux-2.2 era artifact today, it appears that the best way forward is to just delete it.

wan: use ndo_siocdevprivate

2021-07-27T19:11:44+00:00

The wan drivers each support some custom SIOCDEVPRIVATE ioctls, plus the common SIOCWANDEV command. Split these so the ioctl callback only deals with SIOCWANDEV and the rest is handled by ndo_siocdevprivate. It might make sense to also split out SIOCWANDEV into a separate callback in order to eventually remove ndo_do_ioctl entirely.

net: wan: sbni: replace dev_kfree_skb_irq by dev_consume_skb_irq for drop profiles

2019-02-25T22:36:15+00:00

dev_consume_skb_irq() should be called in send_complete() when skb xmit done. It makes drop profiles(dropwatch, perf) more friendly. Signed-off-by: Yang Wei Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

drivers/net: wan/sbni: Convert timers to use timer_setup()

2017-10-25T04:20:30+00:00

In preparation for unconditionally passing the struct timer_list pointer to all timer callbacks, switch to using the new timer_setup() and from_timer() to pass the timer pointer explicitly. Cc: David Howells Cc: netdev@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Kees Cook Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

Annotate hardware config module parameters in drivers/net/wan/

2017-04-20T11:02:32+00:00

When the kernel is running in secure boot mode, we lock down the kernel to prevent userspace from modifying the running kernel image. Whilst this includes prohibiting access to things like /dev/mem, it must also prevent access by means of configuring driver modules in such a way as to cause a device to access or modify the kernel image. To this end, annotate module_param* statements that refer to hardware configuration and indicate for future reference what type of parameter they specify. The parameter parser in the core sees this information and can skip such parameters with an error message if the kernel is locked down. The module initialisation then runs as normal, but just sees whatever the default values for those parameters is. Note that we do still need to do the module initialisation because some drivers have viable defaults set in case parameters aren't specified and some drivers support automatic configuration (e.g. PNP or PCI) in addition to manually coded parameters. This patch annotates drivers in drivers/net/wan/. Suggested-by: Alan Cox Signed-off-by: David Howells cc: "Jan \"Yenya\" Kasprzak" cc: netdev@vger.kernel.org

net: deprecate eth_change_mtu, remove usage

2016-10-13T13:36:57+00:00

With centralized MTU checking, there's nothing productive done by eth_change_mtu that isn't already done in dev_set_mtu, so mark it as deprecated and remove all usage of it in the kernel. All callers have been audited for calls to alloc_etherdev* or ether_setup directly, which means they all have a valid dev->min_mtu and dev->max_mtu. Now eth_change_mtu prints out a netdev_warn about being deprecated, for the benefit of out-of-tree drivers that might be utilizing it. Of note, dvb_net.c actually had dev->mtu = 4096, while using eth_change_mtu, meaning that if you ever tried changing it's mtu, you couldn't set it above 1500 anymore. It's now getting dev->max_mtu also set to 4096 to remedy that. v2: fix up lantiq_etop, missed breakage due to drive not compiling on x86 CC: netdev@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Jarod Wilson Signed-off-by: David S.
