drivers:net: dma_alloc_coherent: use __GFP_ZERO instead of memset(, 0)

2013-03-17T16:50:24+00:00

Reduce the number of calls required to alloc
a zeroed block of memory.

Trivially reduces overall object size.

Other changes around these removals
o Neaten call argument alignment
o Remove an unnecessary OOM message after dma_alloc_coherent failure
o Remove unnecessary gfp_t stack variable

drivers:net: Remove dma_alloc_coherent OOM messages

2013-03-15T12:56:58+00:00

I believe these error messages are already logged
on allocation failure by warn_alloc_failed and so
get a dump_stack on OOM.

Remove the unnecessary additional error logging.

Around these deletions:

o Alignment neatening.
o Remove unnecessary casts of dma_alloc_coherent.
o Hoist assigns from ifs.

net: phy: remove flags argument from phy_{attach, connect, connect_direct}

2013-01-14T20:11:50+00:00

The flags argument of the phy_{attach,connect,connect_direct} functions
is then used to assign a struct phy_device dev_flags with its value.
All callers but the tg3 driver pass the flag 0, which results in the
underlying PHY drivers in drivers/net/phy/ not being able to actually
use any of the flags they would set in dev_flags. This patch gets rid of
the flags argument, and passes phydev->dev_flags to the internal PHY
library call phy_attach_direct() such that drivers which actually modify
a phy device dev_flags get the value preserved for use by the underlying
phy driver.

ethtool: fix drvinfo strings set in drivers

2013-01-07T05:06:31+00:00

Use strlcpy where possible to ensure the string is \0 terminated.
Use always sizeof(string) instead of 32, ETHTOOL_BUSINFO_LEN
and custom defines.
Use snprintf instead of sprint.
Remove unnecessary inits of ->fw_version
Remove unnecessary inits of drvinfo struct.

aeroflex: remove __dev* attributes

2012-12-03T19:16:41+00:00

CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option.  As result the __dev*
markings will be going away.

Remove use of __devinit, __devexit_p, __devinitdata, __devinitconst,
and __devexit.

ethernet: Remove casts to same type

2012-06-06T16:31:33+00:00

Adding casts of objects to the same type is unnecessary
and confusing for a human reader.

For example, this cast:

        int y;
        int *p = (int *)&y;

I used the coccinelle script below to find and remove these
unnecessary casts.  I manually removed the conversions this
script produces of casts with __force, __iomem and __user.

@@
type T;
T *p;
@@

-       (T *)p
+       p

A function in atl1e_main.c was passed a const pointer
when it actually modified elements of the structure.

Change the argument to a non-const pointer.

A function in stmmac needed a __force to avoid a sparse
warning.  Added it.

ethernet: unify return value of .ndo_set_mac_address if address is invalid

2012-02-23T22:03:20+00:00

Unify return value of .ndo_set_mac_address if the given address
isn't valid. Return -EADDRNOTAVAIL as eth_mac_addr() already does
if is_valid_ether_addr() fails.

net/ethernet: convert drivers/net/ethernet/* to use module_platform_driver()

2011-11-29T05:25:05+00:00

This patch converts the drivers in drivers/net/ethernet/* to use the
module_platform_driver() macro which makes the code smaller and a bit
simpler.
