net: gianfar: fix device leak when querying time stamp info

2025-07-31T01:02:47Z

Make sure to drop the reference to the ptp device taken by of_find_device_by_node() when querying the time stamping capabilities. Note that holding a reference to the ptp device does not prevent its driver data from going away.

eth: gianfar: migrate to new RXFH callbacks

2025-06-17T01:24:17Z

Migrate to new callbacks added by commit 9bb00786fc61 ("net: ethtool: add dedicated callbacks for getting and setting rxfh fields"). Uniquely, this driver supports only the SET operation. It does not support GET at all. The SET callback also always returns 0, even tho it checks a bunch of conditions, and if my quick reading is right, expects the user to insert filtering rules for given flow type first? Long story short it seems too convoluted to easily add the GET as part of the conversion. Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20250613172751.3754732-1-kuba@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski

net: freescale: use ethtool string helpers

2024-11-01T01:34:48Z

The latter is the preferred way to copy ethtool strings. Avoids manually incrementing the pointer. Cleans up the code quite well. Signed-off-by: Rosen Penev Reviewed-by: Lee Trager Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20241025203757.288367-1-rosenp@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski

gianfar: Remove setting of RX software timestamp

2024-09-03T22:17:49Z

The responsibility for reporting of RX software timestamp has moved to the core layer (see __ethtool_get_ts_info()), remove usage from the device drivers.

net: Add struct kernel_ethtool_ts_info

2024-07-15T15:02:26Z

In prevision to add new UAPI for hwtstamp we will be limited to the struct ethtool_ts_info that is currently passed in fixed binary format through the ETHTOOL_GET_TS_INFO ethtool ioctl. It would be good if new kernel code already started operating on an extensible kernel variant of that structure, similar in concept to struct kernel_hwtstamp_config vs struct hwtstamp_config. Since struct ethtool_ts_info is in include/uapi/linux/ethtool.h, here we introduce the kernel-only structure in include/linux/ethtool.h. The manual copy is then made in the function called by ETHTOOL_GET_TS_INFO.

net: Explicitly include correct DT includes

2023-07-28T03:33:16Z

The DT of_device.h and of_platform.h date back to the separate of_platform_bus_type before it as merged into the regular platform bus. As part of that merge prepping Arm DT support 13 years ago, they "temporarily" include each other. They also include platform_device.h and of.h. As a result, there's a pretty much random mix of those include files used throughout the tree. In order to detangle these headers and replace the implicit includes with struct declarations, users need to explicitly include the correct includes.

Follow the advice of the below link and prefer 'strscpy' in this subsystem. Conversion is 1:1 because the return value is not used. Generated by a coccinelle script.
