drivers/net: get rid of unnecessary initializations in .get_drvinfo()

2015-10-16T07:24:10+00:00

Many drivers initialize uselessly n_priv_flags, n_stats, testinfo_len, eedump_len & regdump_len fields in their .get_drvinfo() ethtool op. It's not necessary as these fields is filled in ethtool_get_drvinfo(). v2: removed unused variable v3: removed another unused variable Signed-off-by: Ivan Vecera Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net

2014-01-18T08:55:41+00:00

Conflicts: drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/bnx2x/bnx2x_main.c net/ipv4/tcp_metrics.c Overlapping changes between the "don't create two tcp metrics objects with the same key" race fix in net and the addition of the destination address in the lookup key in net-next. Minor overlapping changes in bnx2x driver. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

drivers/net: delete non-required instances of include

2014-01-16T19:53:26+00:00

None of these files are actually using any __init type directives and hence don't need to include . Most are just a left over from __devinit and __cpuinit removal, or simply due to code getting copied from one driver to the next. This covers everything under drivers/net except for wireless, which has been submitted separately. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

dm9601: work around tx fifo sync issue on dm962x

2013-12-18T22:46:55+00:00

Certain dm962x revisions contain an bug, where if a USB bulk transfer retry (E.G. if bulk crc mismatch) happens right after a transfer with odd or maxpacket length, the internal tx hardware fifo gets out of sync causing the interface to stop working. Work around it by adding up to 3 bytes of padding to ensure this situation cannot trigger. This workaround also means we never pass multiple-of-maxpacket size skb's to usbnet, so the length adjustment to handle usbnet's padding of those can be removed.

dm9601: make it clear that dm9620/dm9621a are also supported

2013-12-18T22:46:55+00:00

The driver nowadays also support dm9620/dm9621a based USB 2.0 ethernet adapters, so adjust module/driver description and Kconfig help text to match. Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

dm9601: fix reception of full size ethernet frames on dm9620/dm9621a

2013-12-18T22:46:55+00:00

dm9620/dm9621a require room for 4 byte padding even in dm9601 (3 byte header) mode. Cc: Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

dm9601: add support for dm9621a based dongle

2013-12-18T22:46:55+00:00

dm9621a is functionally identical to dm9620, so the existing handling can directly be used. Thanks to Davicom for sending me a dongle. Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

dm9601: fix IFF_ALLMULTI handling

2013-09-30T23:48:59+00:00

Pass-all-multicast is controlled by bit 3 in RX control, not bit 2 (pass undersized frames). Reported-by: Joseph Chang Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
