NET: pc300, move to staging as it is broken

2012-04-13T17:57:04+00:00

It was marked as BROKEN back in 2008. It is because the tty handling in the driver is really broken. There was some activity in January 2012 to fix the driver, but the patch was commented to be bogus: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/1/29/160 and we have not heard back from the author since then: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/3/28/412 So since nobody stepped in and rewrote the driver, it is time to move it out of line now. And drop it some time later if nobody comes up with patches to fix the driver in staging. Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby Acked-by: David S.

NET: pc300, do not zero global variables

2012-03-08T19:47:01+00:00

They are in .bss which is initialized to zeros when the module is loaded/kernel booted. What a strange way to do the initialization once in the pci probe routine... Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby Cc: netdev@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

drivers/net: Remove casts of void *

2011-06-21T22:48:29+00:00

Unnecessary casts of void * clutter the code. These are the remainder casts after several specific patches to remove netdev_priv and dev_priv.

tiocmset: kill the file pointer argument

2011-02-17T19:52:43+00:00

Doing tiocmget was such fun we should do tiocmset as well for the same reasons Signed-off-by: Alan Cox Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

tiocmget: kill off the passing of the struct file

2011-02-17T19:47:33+00:00

We don't actually need this and it causes problems for internal use of this functionality. Currently there is a single use of the FILE * pointer. That is the serial core which uses it to check tty_hung_up_p. However if that is true then IO_ERROR is also already set so the check may be removed.

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

tty: Ldisc revamp

2008-07-21T00:12:34+00:00

Move the line disciplines towards a conventional ->ops arrangement. For the moment the actual 'tty_ldisc' struct in the tty is kept as part of the tty struct but this can then be changed if it turns out that when it all settles down we want to refcount ldiscs separately to the tty. Pull the ldisc code out of /proc and put it with our ldisc code. Signed-off-by: Alan Cox Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds
