ehea/ibm*: Move the IBM drivers

2011-08-11T09:41:59+00:00

Move the IBM drivers into drivers/net/ethernet/ibm/ and make the necessary Kconfig and Makefile changes. - Renamed ibm_new_emac to emac - Cleaned up Makefile and Kconfig options which referred to IBM_NEW_EMAC to IBM_EMAC - ibmlana driver is a National Semiconductor SONIC driver so it was not moved CC: Christoph Raisch CC: Santiago Leon CC: Benjamin Herrenschmidt CC: David Gibson CC: Kyle Lucke CC: Michael Ellerman Signed-off-by: Jeff Kirsher

net: iseries_veth: Omit check for multicast bit in netdev_for_each_mc_addr

2011-07-01T05:13:38+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. Signed-off-by: Tobias Klauser Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

drivers/net: Remove unnecessary semicolons

2011-06-05T21:33:40+00:00

Semicolons are not necessary after switch/while/for/if braces so remove them. Signed-off-by: Joe Perches Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

iseries_veth: don't use flush_scheduled_work()

2010-12-12T15:45:14+00:00

flush_scheduled_work() is on its way out. Remove its usage from iseries_veth. * Cancelling a delayed work, queueing it for immediate execution if cancelled and then waiting for completion can be done by simply calling flush_delayed_work_sync(). * Explicitly cancel cnx->statemachine_wq on module unload.

netdev: Use default implementation of ethtool_ops::get_link where possible

2010-12-10T23:55:24+00:00

Various drivers are using implementations of ethtool_ops::get_link that are equivalent to the default ethtool_op_get_link(). Change them to use that instead. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

drivers/net: avoid some skb->ip_summed initializations

2010-09-03T02:06:22+00:00

fresh skbs have ip_summed set to CHECKSUM_NONE (0) We can avoid setting again skb->ip_summed to CHECKSUM_NONE in drivers. Introduce skb_checksum_none_assert() helper so that we keep this assertion documented in driver sources. Change most occurrences of : skb->ip_summed = CHECKSUM_NONE; by : skb_checksum_none_assert(skb); Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: convert multicast list to list_head

2010-04-03T21:22:15+00:00

Converts the list and the core manipulating with it to be the same as uc_list. +uses two functions for adding/removing mc address (normal and "global" variant) instead of a function parameter. +removes dev_mcast.c completely. +exposes netdev_hw_addr_list_* macros along with __hw_addr_* functions for manipulation with lists on a sandbox (used in bonding and 80211 drivers) Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko Signed-off-by: David S.
