netdev: remove pathetic compile-command lines

2008-12-04T06:19:52+00:00

-m486, -O6 are partircularly amusing.

Remove some other useless lines near as well.

netdevice: safe convert to netdev_priv() #part-2

2008-11-13T07:38:14+00:00

We have some reasons to kill netdev->priv:
1. netdev->priv is equal to netdev_priv().
2. netdev_priv() wraps the calculation of netdev->priv's offset, obviously
   netdev_priv() is more flexible than netdev->priv.
But we cann't kill netdev->priv, because so many drivers reference to it
directly.

This patch is a safe convert for netdev->priv to netdev_priv(netdev).
Since all of the netdev->priv is only for read.
But it is too big to be sent in one mail.
I split it to 4 parts and make every part smaller than 100,000 bytes,
which is max size allowed by vger.

drivers/net: Kill now superfluous ->last_rx stores.

2008-11-04T05:11:17+00:00

The generic packet receive code takes care of setting
netdev->last_rx when necessary, for the sake of the
bonding ARP monitor.

Drivers need not do it any more.

Some cases had to be skipped over because the drivers
were making use of the ->last_rx value themselves.

net: convert print_mac to %pM

2008-10-28T00:06:18+00:00

This converts pretty much everything to print_mac. There were
a few things that had conflicts which I have just dropped for
now, no harm done.

I've built an allyesconfig with this and looked at the files
that weren't built very carefully, but it's a huge patch.

[netdrvr] Drivers should not set IFF_* flag themselves

2008-08-07T06:23:19+00:00

Some hardware set promisc when they are requested to set IFF_ALLMULTI flag.
It's ok, but if drivers set IFF_PROMISC flag when they set promisc,
it will broken upper layer handle for promisc and allmulti.
In addition, drivers can use their own hardware programming to make it.
So do not allow drivers to set IFF_* flags.

This is a general driver fix, so I didn't split it to pieces and send
to specific driver maintainers.

[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.

[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.
