netdevice: Kill netdev->priv

2008-12-08T09:14:16+00:00

This is the last shoot of this series.
After I removing all directly reference of netdev->priv, I am killing
"priv" of "struct net_device" and fixing relative comments/docs.

Anyone will not be allowed to reference netdev->priv directly.
If you want to reference the memory of private data, use netdev_priv()
instead.
If the private data is not allocted when alloc_netdev(), use
netdev->ml_priv to point that memory after you creating that private
data.

netdevice hdlc: Convert directly reference of netdev->priv

2008-11-22T00:34:18+00:00

For killing directly reference of netdev->priv, use netdev->ml_priv to replace it.
Because the private pvc data comes from add_pvc() and can't be allocated in
alloc_netdev().

WAN: convert drivers to use built-in netdev_stats

2008-07-04T12:47:41+00:00

There is no point in using separate net_device_stats structs when
the one in struct net_device is present. Compiles.

[SK_BUFF]: Introduce skb_reset_mac_header(skb)

2007-04-26T05:24:32+00:00

For the common, open coded 'skb->mac.raw = skb->data' operation, so that we can
later turn skb->mac.raw into a offset, reducing the size of struct sk_buff in
64bit land while possibly keeping it as a pointer on 32bit.

This one touches just the most simple case, next will handle the slightly more
"complex" cases.

[PATCH] Modularize generic HDLC

2006-09-26T21:40:24+00:00

This patch enables building of individual WAN protocol support
routines (parts of generic HDLC) as separate modules.
All protocol-private definitions are moved from hdlc.h file
to protocol drivers. User-space interface and interface
between generic HDLC and underlying low-level HDLC drivers
are unchanged.

[WAN]: converting generic HDLC to use netif_dormant*()

2006-07-12T20:59:06+00:00

This patch converts generic HDLC (and WAN drivers using it) from
hdlc_set_carrier() to netif_dormant*() interface.
WAN hardware drivers should now use netif_carrier_on|off() like
other network drivers.

[PATCH] WAN: register_hdlc_device() doesn't need dev_alloc_name()

2006-06-23T03:32:03+00:00

David Boggs noticed that register_hdlc_device() no longer needs
to call dev_alloc_name() as it's called by register_netdev().
register_hdlc_device() is currently equivalent to register_netdev().

hdlc_setup() is now EXPORTed as per David's request.
