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

net: Move MII out from under NET_CORE and hide it

2013-06-20T05:22:56Z

All drivers that select MII also need to select NET_CORE because MII depends on it. This is a bit ridiculous because NET_CORE is just a menu option that doesn't enable any code by itself. There is also no need for it to be a visible option, since its users all select it. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings Acked-by: Jeff Kirsher Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: smsc911x: don't artificially limit build

2013-05-23T06:58:34Z

Currently the SMSC911X driver may only be built for a specific set of architectures, being limited to do so by a Kconfig depends line. This means that if a platform wishes to use the driver, its architecture must be added to the list explicitly, introducing pointless churn. This may have been due to the driver's use of the {read,write}s{b,w,l} functions, which have since been replaced with the more standard io{read,write}{8,16,32}_rep. We can instead depend on HAS_IOMEM, which should prevent build issues while allowing the driver to be built for currently unlisted architectures, including x86 and arm64. This patch removes the explicit list of architectures from the driver's depend line, and replaces it with a dependency on HAS_IOMEM. Signed-off-by: Mark Rutland Cc: David S.

MII: fix Kconfig dependencies for MII

2011-09-15T19:49:08Z

MII Kconfig option is apart of the core networking drivers and by default NET_CORE is enabled so drivers selecting MII will have MII enabled as well. It was found using the randconfig option during testing, MII would be selected but NET_CORE could be disabled. This caused a dependency error. Resolved the dependency by selecting NET_CORE when MII is selected. Reported-by: Emil Tantilov Signed-off-by: Jeff Kirsher Tested-by: Aaron Brown Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
