irda: move net/irda/ to drivers/staging/irda/net/

2017-08-28T23:42:56+00:00

It's time to get rid of IRDA.  It's long been broken, and no one seems
to use it anymore.  So move it to staging and after a while, we can
delete it from there.

To start, move the network irda core from net/irda to
drivers/staging/irda/net/

networking: make skb_push & __skb_push return void pointers

2017-06-16T15:48:40+00:00

It seems like a historic accident that these return unsigned char *,
and in many places that means casts are required, more often than not.

Make these functions return void * and remove all the casts across
the tree, adding a (u8 *) cast only where the unsigned char pointer
was used directly, all done with the following spatch:

    @@
    expression SKB, LEN;
    typedef u8;
    identifier fn = { skb_push, __skb_push, skb_push_rcsum };
    @@
    - *(fn(SKB, LEN))
    + *(u8 *)fn(SKB, LEN)

    @@
    expression E, SKB, LEN;
    identifier fn = { skb_push, __skb_push, skb_push_rcsum };
    type T;
    @@
    - E = ((T *)(fn(SKB, LEN)))
    + E = fn(SKB, LEN)

    @@
    expression SKB, LEN;
    identifier fn = { skb_push, __skb_push, skb_push_rcsum };
    @@
    - fn(SKB, LEN)[0]
    + *(u8 *)fn(SKB, LEN)

Note that the last part there converts from push(...)[0] to the
more idiomatic *(u8 *)push(...).

lib/vsprintf.c: remove %Z support

2017-02-28T02:43:47+00:00

Now that %z is standartised in C99 there is no reason to support %Z.
Unlike %L it doesn't even make format strings smaller.

Use BUILD_BUG_ON in a couple ATM drivers.

In case anyone didn't notice lib/vsprintf.o is about half of SLUB which
is in my opinion is quite an achievement.  Hopefully this patch inspires
someone else to trim vsprintf.c more.

Replace with globally

2016-12-24T19:46:01+00:00

This was entirely automated, using the script by Al:

  PATT='^[[:blank:]]*#[[:blank:]]*include[[:blank:]]*'
  sed -i -e "s!$PATT!#include !" \
        $(git grep -l "$PATT"|grep -v ^include/linux/uaccess.h)

to do the replacement at the end of the merge window.

irda: irnet: add member name to the miscdevice declaration

2016-12-17T16:29:31+00:00

Since the struct miscdevice have many members, it is dangerous to init
it without members name relying only on member order.

This patch add member name to the init declaration.

2016-12-17T16:17:24+00:00

This patch move the define for IRNET_MINOR to include/linux/miscdevice.h
It is better that all minor number definitions are in the same place.

irda: irnet: Move linux/miscdevice.h include

2016-12-17T16:16:31+00:00

The only use of miscdevice is irda_ppp so no need to include
linux/miscdevice.h for all irda files.
This patch move the linux/miscdevice.h include to irnet_ppp.h

irda: replace current->state by set_current_state()

2015-02-23T22:21:11+00:00

Use helper functions to access current->state.
Direct assignments are prone to races and therefore buggy.

current->state = TASK_RUNNING can be replaced by __set_current_state()

Thanks to Peter Zijlstra for the exact definition of the problem.
