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/niu.c: adjust array index

2011-08-01T09:27:21+00:00

Convert array index from the loop bound to the loop index. A simplified version of the semantic patch that fixes this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // @@ expression e1,e2,ar; @@ for(e1 = 0; e1 < e2; e1++) { <... ar[ - e2 + e1 ] ...> } // Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall Signed-off-by: David S.

niu: remove unnecessary read of PCI_CAP_ID_EXP

2011-06-28T04:40:45+00:00

The PCIE capability offset is saved during PCI bus walking. It will remove an unnecessary search in the PCI configuration space if this value is referenced instead of reacquiring it. Signed-off-by: Jon Mason Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: remove interrupt.h inclusion from netdevice.h

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

ethtool: allow custom interval for physical identification

2011-04-15T04:15:49+00:00

When physical identification of an adapter is done by toggling the mechanism on and off through software utilizing the set_phys_id operation, it is done with a fixed duration for both on and off states. Some drivers may want to set a custom duration for the on/off intervals. This patch changes the API so the return code from the driver's entry point when it is called with ETHTOOL_ID_ACTIVE can specify the frequency at which to cycle the on/off states, and updates the drivers that have already been converted to use the new set_phys_id and use the synchronous method for identifying an adapter. The physical identification frequency set in the updated drivers is based on how it was done prior to the introduction of set_phys_id. Compile tested only. Also fixes a compiler warning in sfc. v2: drivers do not return -EINVAL for ETHOOL_ID_ACTIVE v3: fold patchset into single patch and cleanup per Ben's feedback Signed-off-by: Bruce Allan Cc: Ben Hutchings Cc: Sathya Perla Cc: Subbu Seetharaman Cc: Ajit Khaparde Cc: Michael Chan Cc: Eilon Greenstein Cc: Divy Le Ray Cc: Don Fry Cc: Jon Mason Cc: Solarflare linux maintainers Cc: Steve Hodgson Cc: Stephen Hemminger Cc: Matt Carlson Acked-by: Jon Mason Acked-by: Ben Hutchings Signed-off-by: David S.
