net: ethernet: Switch back to struct platform_driver::remove()

2024-10-04T23:39:56Z

After commit 0edb555a65d1 ("platform: Make platform_driver::remove() return void") .remove() is (again) the right callback to implement for platform drivers. Convert all platform drivers below drivers/net/ethernet to use .remove(), with the eventual goal to drop struct platform_driver::remove_new(). As .remove() and .remove_new() have the same prototypes, conversion is done by just changing the structure member name in the driver initializer.

net: ethernet: litex: Convert to platform remove callback returning void

2023-09-20T08:06:39Z

The .remove() callback for a platform driver returns an int which makes many driver authors wrongly assume it's possible to do error handling by returning an error code. However the value returned is ignored (apart from emitting a warning) and this typically results in resource leaks. To improve here there is a quest to make the remove callback return void. In the first step of this quest all drivers are converted to .remove_new() which already returns void. Eventually after all drivers are converted, .remove_new() is renamed to .remove(). Trivially convert this driver from always returning zero in the remove callback to the void returning variant. Signed-off-by: Uwe Kleine-König Acked-by: Gabriel Somlo Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: ethernet: litex: add support for 64 bit stats

2023-06-16T05:56:46Z

Implement 64 bit per cpu stats to fix the overflow of netdev->stats on 32 bit platforms. To simplify the code, we use net core pcpu_sw_netstats infrastructure. One small drawback is some memory overhead because litex uses just one queue, but we allocate the counters per cpu.

net: ethernet: litex: Fix return type of liteeth_start_xmit

2022-09-20T01:23:39Z

The ndo_start_xmit field in net_device_ops is expected to be of type netdev_tx_t (*ndo_start_xmit)(struct sk_buff *skb, struct net_device *dev). The mismatched return type breaks forward edge kCFI since the underlying function definition does not match the function hook definition. The return type of liteeth_start_xmit should be changed from int to netdev_tx_t.
