Convert files to UTF-8 and some cleanups

2007-10-19T21:21:04+00:00

* Convert files to UTF-8.

  * Also correct some people's names
    (one example is Eißfeldt, which was found in a source file.
    Given that the author used an ß at all in a source file
    indicates that the real name has in fact a 'ß' and not an 'ss',
    which is commonly used as a substitute for 'ß' when limited to
    7bit.)

  * Correct town names (Goettingen -> Göttingen)

  * Update Eberhard Mönkeberg's address (http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/1/8/313)

[netdrvr] Stop using legacy hooks ->self_test_count, ->get_stats_count

2007-10-10T23:51:45+00:00

These have been superceded by the new ->get_sset_count() hook.

[NET]: Introduce and use print_mac() and DECLARE_MAC_BUF()

2007-10-10T23:51:42+00:00

This is nicer than the MAC_FMT stuff.

[NET]: Nuke SET_MODULE_OWNER macro.

2007-10-10T23:51:13+00:00

It's been a useless no-op for long enough in 2.6 so I figured it's time to
remove it.  The number of people that could object because they're
maintaining unified 2.4 and 2.6 drivers is probably rather small.

[8139too]: tab-align enums and structs; remove dead code

2007-10-10T23:50:23+00:00

* (main change) tab-align hardware register value enums, and hw struct

* MMIO_FLUSH_AUDIT_COMPLETE has been defined to 1 for a while.  Remove
  the code activated when it is set to zero.

[NET]: Make NAPI polling independent of struct net_device objects.

2007-10-10T23:47:45+00:00

Several devices have multiple independant RX queues per net
device, and some have a single interrupt doorbell for several
queues.

In either case, it's easier to support layouts like that if the
structure representing the poll is independant from the net
device itself.

The signature of the ->poll() call back goes from:

	int foo_poll(struct net_device *dev, int *budget)

to

	int foo_poll(struct napi_struct *napi, int budget)

The caller is returned the number of RX packets processed (or
the number of "NAPI credits" consumed if you want to get
abstract).  The callee no longer messes around bumping
dev->quota, *budget, etc. because that is all handled in the
caller upon return.

The napi_struct is to be embedded in the device driver private data
structures.

Furthermore, it is the driver's responsibility to disable all NAPI
instances in it's ->stop() device close handler.  Since the
napi_struct is privatized into the driver's private data structures,
only the driver knows how to get at all of the napi_struct instances
it may have per-device.

With lots of help and suggestions from Rusty Russell, Roland Dreier,
Michael Chan, Jeff Garzik, and Jamal Hadi Salim.

Bug fixes from Thomas Graf, Roland Dreier, Peter Zijlstra,
Joseph Fannin, Scott Wood, Hans J. Koch, and Michael Chan.

[ Ported to current tree and all drivers converted.  Integrated
  Stephen's follow-on kerneldoc additions, and restored poll_list
  handling to the old style to fix mutual exclusion issues.  -DaveM ]

[NET]: ethtool_perm_addr only has one implementation

2007-07-31T21:00:29+00:00

All drivers implement ethtool get_perm_addr the same way -- by calling
the generic function.  So we can inline the generic function into the
caller and avoid going through the drivers.
