igbvf: remove unused fields from struct igbvf_adapter

2025-07-18T16:02:28Z

Remove following unused fields from struct igbvf_adapter that are never referenced in the driver. - blink_timer - eeprom_wol - fc_autoneg - int_mode - led_status - mng_vlan_id - polling_interval - rx_dma_failed - test_icr - test_rx_ring - test_tx_ring - tx_dma_failed - tx_fifo_head - tx_fifo_size - tx_head_addr Also removed the following fields from struct igbvf_adapter since they are never read or used after initialization by igbvf_probe() and igbvf_sw_init(). - bd_number - rx_abs_int_delay - tx_abs_int_delay - rx_int_delay - tx_int_delay This changes simplify the igbvf driver by removing unused fields, which improves maintenability.

igbvf: remove unused interrupt counter fields from struct igbvf_adapter

2025-07-03T16:39:04Z

Remove `int_counter0` and `int_counter1` from struct igbvf_adapter since they are only incremented in interrupt handlers igbvf_intr_msix_rx() and igbvf_msix_other(), but never read or used anywhere in the driver. Note that igbvf_intr_msix_tx() does not have similar counter increments, suggesting that these were likely overlooked during development. Eliminate the fields and their unnecessary accesses in interrupt handlers. Tested-by: Kohei Enju Signed-off-by: Kohei Enju Reviewed-by: Aleksandr Loktionov Signed-off-by: Tony Nguyen

timer_delete[_sync]() replaces del_timer[_sync](). Convert the whole tree over and remove the historical wrapper inlines. Conversion was done with coccinelle plus manual fixups where necessary. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar

net: annotate writes on dev->mtu from ndo_change_mtu()

2024-05-07T23:19:14Z

Simon reported that ndo_change_mtu() methods were never updated to use WRITE_ONCE(dev->mtu, new_mtu) as hinted in commit 501a90c94510 ("inet: protect against too small mtu values.") We read dev->mtu without holding RTNL in many places, with READ_ONCE() annotations. It is time to take care of ndo_change_mtu() methods to use corresponding WRITE_ONCE() Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Reported-by: Simon Horman Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20240505144608.GB67882@kernel.org/ Reviewed-by: Jacob Keller Reviewed-by: Sabrina Dubroca Reviewed-by: Simon Horman Acked-by: Shannon Nelson Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240506102812.3025432-1-edumazet@google.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski

net: intel: implement modern PM ops declarations

2024-03-29T15:58:43Z

Switch the Intel networking drivers to use the new power management ops declaration formats and macros, which allows us to drop __maybe_unused, as well as a bunch of ifdef checking CONFIG_PM. This is safe to do because the compiler drops the unused functions, verified by checking for any of the power management function symbols being present in System.map for a build without CONFIG_PM. If a driver has runtime PM, define the ops with pm_ptr(), and if the driver has Simple PM, use pm_sleep_ptr(), as well as the new versions of the macros for declaring the members of the pm_ops structs. Checked with network-enabled allnoconfig, allyesconfig, allmodconfig on x64_64.

This is a cleanup patch, making code a bit more concise. 1) Use skb_network_offset(skb) in place of (skb_network_header(skb) - skb->data) 2) Use -skb_network_offset(skb) in place of (skb->data - skb_network_header(skb)) 3) Use skb_transport_offset(skb) in place of (skb_transport_header(skb) - skb->data) 4) Use skb_inner_transport_offset(skb) in place of (skb_inner_transport_header(skb) - skb->data) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Acked-by: Edward Cree # for sfc Signed-off-by: David S.
