[netdrvr] irq handler minor cleanups in several drivers

2008-01-28T23:03:40+00:00

* use irq_handler_t where appropriate

* no need to use 'irq' function arg, its already stored in a data struct

* rename irq handler 'irq' argument to 'dummy', where the function
  has been analyzed and proven not to use its first argument.

* remove always-false "dev_id == NULL" test from irq handlers

* remove pointless casts from void*

* declance: irq argument is not const

* add KERN_xxx printk prefix

* fix minor whitespace weirdness

[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] drivers/net: statistics cleanup #1 -- save memory and shrink code

2007-10-10T23:51:16+00:00

We now have struct net_device_stats embedded in struct net_device,
and the default ->get_stats() hook does the obvious thing for us.

Run through drivers/net/* and remove the driver-local storage of
statistics, and driver-local ->get_stats() hook where applicable.

This was just the low-hanging fruit in drivers/net; plenty more drivers
remain to be updated.

declance: Remove a dangling spin_unlock_irq() thingy

2007-05-21T23:41:19+00:00

 The spin_unlock_irq() invocation in lance_start_xmit() has no matching
locking request.  The call is already protected by netif_tx_lock, so
remove the statement.

[ETH]: Make eth_type_trans set skb->dev like the other *_type_trans

[PATCH] declance: Support the I/O ASIC LANCE w/o TURBOchannel

2006-12-04T23:36:02+00:00

The onboard LANCE of I/O ASIC systems is not a TURBOchannel device, at
least from the software point of view.  Therefore it does not rely on any
kernel TURBOchannel bus services and can be supported even if support for
TURBOchannel has not been enabled in the configuration.

Tested with the onboard LANCE of a DECstation 5000/133.

[PATCH] declance: Fix PMAX and PMAD support

2006-12-04T23:36:02+00:00

The shared buffer used by the LANCE on the PMAX only supports halfword
(16-bit) accesses.  And the PMAD has the buffer wired differently.  This is
a change to fix these issues.

Tested with a DECstation 2100 (thanks Flo for making this possible) and a
DECstation 5000/133 (both the PMAD and the onboard LANCE).
