net/ethernet/sgi: Convert timers to use timer_setup()

2017-10-18T11:40:26Z

In preparation for unconditionally passing the struct timer_list pointer to all timer callbacks, switch to using the new timer_setup() and from_timer() to pass the timer pointer explicitly.

ioc3-eth: store pointer to net_device for priviate area

2017-07-15T21:28:56Z

Computing the alignment manually for going from priv to pub is probably not such a good idea, and in general the assumption that going from priv to pub is possible trivially could change, so rather than relying on that, we change things to just store a pointer to pub.

net/{mii, smsc}: Make mii_ethtool_get_link_ksettings and smc_netdev_get_ecmd return void

2017-06-05T15:00:42Z

Make return value void since functions never returns meaningfull value. Signed-off-by: Yuval Shaia Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: sgi: ioc3-eth: use new api ethtool_{get|set}_link_ksettings

2017-03-07T01:05:39Z

The ethtool api {get|set}_settings is deprecated. We move this driver to new api {get|set}_link_ksettings. As I don't have the hardware, I'd be very pleased if someone may test this patch. Signed-off-by: Philippe Reynes Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

drivers: net: ethernet: remove incorrect __exit markups

2017-03-02T22:33:49Z

Even if bus is not hot-pluggable, devices can be unbound from the driver via sysfs, so we should not be using __exit annotations on remove() methods. The only exception is drivers registered with platform_driver_probe() which specifically disables sysfs bind/unbind attributes. Signed-off-by: Dmitry Torokhov Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

lib/show_mem.c: teach show_mem to work with the given nodemask

2017-02-23T00:41:30Z

show_mem() allows to filter out node specific data which is irrelevant to the allocation request via SHOW_MEM_FILTER_NODES. The filtering is done in skip_free_areas_node which skips all nodes which are not in the mems_allowed of the current process. This works most of the time as expected because the nodemask shouldn't be outside of the allocating task but there are some exceptions. E.g. memory hotplug might want to request allocations from outside of the allowed nodes (see new_node_page). Get rid of this hardcoded behavior and push the allocation mask down the show_mem path and use it instead of cpuset_current_mems_allowed. NULL nodemask is interpreted as cpuset_current_mems_allowed.

net: deprecate eth_change_mtu, remove usage

2016-10-13T13:36:57Z

With centralized MTU checking, there's nothing productive done by eth_change_mtu that isn't already done in dev_set_mtu, so mark it as deprecated and remove all usage of it in the kernel. All callers have been audited for calls to alloc_etherdev* or ether_setup directly, which means they all have a valid dev->min_mtu and dev->max_mtu. Now eth_change_mtu prints out a netdev_warn about being deprecated, for the benefit of out-of-tree drivers that might be utilizing it. Of note, dvb_net.c actually had dev->mtu = 4096, while using eth_change_mtu, meaning that if you ever tried changing it's mtu, you couldn't set it above 1500 anymore. It's now getting dev->max_mtu also set to 4096 to remedy that. v2: fix up lantiq_etop, missed breakage due to drive not compiling on x86 CC: netdev@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Jarod Wilson Signed-off-by: David S.

drivers/net: remove all references to obsolete Ethernet-HOWTO

2015-06-23T13:50:35Z

This howto made sense in the 1990s when users had to manually configure ISA cards with jumpers or vendor utilities, but with the implementation of PCI it became increasingly less and less relevant, to the point where it has been well over a decade since I last updated it. And there is no value in anyone else taking over updating it either. However the references to it continue to spread as boiler plate text from one Kconfig file into the next. We are not doing end users any favours by pointing them at this old document, so lets kill it with fire, once and for all, to hopefully stop any further spread. No code is changed in this commit, just Kconfig help text. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
