net: ethernet: ftgmac100: use phy_ethtool_{get|set}_link_ksettings

2016-05-17T01:51:41Z

There are two generics functions phy_ethtool_{get|set}_link_ksettings, so we can use them instead of defining the same code in the driver. Signed-off-by: Philippe Reynes Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: ethernet: ftgmac100: use phydev from struct net_device

2016-05-17T01:51:41Z

The private structure contain a pointer to phydev, but the structure net_device already contain such pointer. So we can remove the pointer phydev in the private structure, and update the driver to use the one contained in struct net_device. Signed-off-by: Philippe Reynes Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: ethernet: faraday: Use phy_find_first() instead of open coding it

2016-01-11T03:05:30Z

Use phy_find_first() to find the first phy device instead of open coding it. Cc: Andrew Lunn Signed-off-by: Guenter Roeck Acked-by: Andrew Lunn Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

phy: Add API for {un}registering an mdio device to a bus.

2016-01-07T19:31:26Z

Rather than have drivers directly manipulate the mii_bus structure, provide and API for registering and unregistering devices on an MDIO bus, and performing lookups. Signed-off-by: Andrew Lunn Reviewed-by: Florian Fainelli Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

mdio: Move allocation of interrupts into core

2016-01-07T19:31:26Z

Have mdio_alloc() create the array of interrupt numbers, and initialize it to POLLING. This is what most MDIO drivers want, so allowing code to be removed from the drivers. Signed-off-by: Andrew Lunn Reviewed-by: Florian Fainelli Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

phy: add phydev_name() wrapper

2016-01-07T19:31:25Z

Add a phydev_name() function, to help with moving some structure members from phy_device. Signed-off-by: Andrew Lunn Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

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: ethernet: faraday: drop owner assignment from platform_drivers

2014-10-20T14:21:07Z

A platform_driver does not need to set an owner, it will be populated by the driver core. Signed-off-by: Wolfram Sang

net: get rid of SET_ETHTOOL_OPS

2014-05-13T21:43:20Z

net: get rid of SET_ETHTOOL_OPS Dave Miller mentioned he'd like to see SET_ETHTOOL_OPS gone. This does that. Mostly done via coccinelle script: @@ struct ethtool_ops *ops; struct net_device *dev; @@ - SET_ETHTOOL_OPS(dev, ops); + dev->ethtool_ops = ops; Compile tested only, but I'd seriously wonder if this broke anything.

net: ftgmac100: remove empty MDIO bus reset function

2014-03-28T05:38:02Z

ftgmac100_mdiobus_reset() does nothing useful and is optional for the MDIO bus code, so let's just remove it. Signed-off-by: Florian Fainelli Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
