depca: fix warning in drivers/net/depca.c

2008-11-26T01:00:39Z

fix warning: drivers/net/depca.c: In function ‘depca_eisa_probe’: drivers/net/depca.c:1564: warning: ‘mem_start’ may be used uninitialized in this function this seems to be a real bug - depca_eisa_probe() does not check for failure. Add it, symmetric to depca_isa_probe(). Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

netdevice: safe convert to netdev_priv() #part-2

2008-11-13T07:38:14Z

We have some reasons to kill netdev->priv: 1. netdev->priv is equal to netdev_priv(). 2. netdev_priv() wraps the calculation of netdev->priv's offset, obviously netdev_priv() is more flexible than netdev->priv. But we cann't kill netdev->priv, because so many drivers reference to it directly. This patch is a safe convert for netdev->priv to netdev_priv(netdev). Since all of the netdev->priv is only for read. But it is too big to be sent in one mail. I split it to 4 parts and make every part smaller than 100,000 bytes, which is max size allowed by vger.

drivers/net: Kill now superfluous ->last_rx stores.

2008-11-04T05:11:17Z

The generic packet receive code takes care of setting netdev->last_rx when necessary, for the sake of the bonding ARP monitor. Drivers need not do it any more. Some cases had to be skipped over because the drivers were making use of the ->last_rx value themselves. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: convert print_mac to %pM

2008-10-28T00:06:18Z

This converts pretty much everything to print_mac. There were a few things that had conflicts which I have just dropped for now, no harm done. I've built an allyesconfig with this and looked at the files that weren't built very carefully, but it's a huge patch. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[NET]: Introduce and use print_mac() and DECLARE_MAC_BUF()

This is nicer than the MAC_FMT stuff. Signed-off-by: Joe Perches Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[NET] drivers/net: statistics cleanup #1 -- save memory and shrink code

2007-10-10T23:51:16Z

We now have struct net_device_stats embedded in struct net_device, and the default ->get_stats() hook does the obvious thing for us. Run through drivers/net/* and remove the driver-local storage of statistics, and driver-local ->get_stats() hook where applicable. This was just the low-hanging fruit in drivers/net; plenty more drivers remain to be updated.

[netdrvr] depca: handle platform_device_add() failure

2007-04-24T16:40:57Z

The following patch fixes a kernel bug in depca_platform_probe(). We don't use a dynamic pointer for pldev->dev.platform_data, so it seems that the correct way to proceed if platform_device_add(pldev) fails is to explicitly set the pldev->dev.platform_data pointer to NULL, before calling the platform_device_put(pldev), or it will be kfree'ed by platform_device_release().
