[SK_BUFF]: Introduce skb_copy_to_linear_data{_offset}

2007-04-26T05:28:29+00:00

To clearly state the intent of copying to linear sk_buffs, _offset being a overly long variant but interesting for the sake of saving some bytes. Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

[SK_BUFF]: Convert skb->end to sk_buff_data_t

2007-04-26T05:26:29+00:00

Now to convert the last one, skb->data, that will allow many simplifications and removal of some of the offset helpers. Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[SK_BUFF]: Convert skb->tail to sk_buff_data_t

2007-04-26T05:26:28+00:00

So that it is also an offset from skb->head, reduces its size from 8 to 4 bytes on 64bit architectures, allowing us to combine the 4 bytes hole left by the layer headers conversion, reducing struct sk_buff size to 256 bytes, i.e. 4 64byte cachelines, and since the sk_buff slab cache is SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN... :-) Many calculations that previously required that skb->{transport,network, mac}_header be first converted to a pointer now can be done directly, being meaningful as offsets or pointers.

[ETH]: Make eth_type_trans set skb->dev like the other *_type_trans

2007-04-26T05:24:30+00:00

One less thing for drivers writers to worry about. Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

macb: Remove inappropriate spinlocks around mii calls

2007-02-17T20:30:48+00:00

Remove spin_lock_irqsave() around mii_ethtool_gset, mii_ethtool_sset and generic_mii_ioctl. These are unnecessary and harmful because the mii calls may call back into the mdio functions, which may sleep. Pointed out by David Brownell. Signed-off-by: Haavard Skinnemoen Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik

[PATCH] Scheduled removal of SA_xxx interrupt flags fixups

2007-02-14T16:09:54+00:00

The obsolete SA_xxx interrupt flags have been used despite the scheduled removal. Fixup the remaining users.

AT91: MACB support

2007-02-07T23:50:53+00:00

The Atmel MACB Ethernet peripheral is also integrated in the AT91SAM9260 and AT91SAM9263 processors. The differences from the AVR32 version are: * Single peripheral clock. * MII/RMII selection bit is inverted. * Clock enable bit. Original patch from Patrice Vilchez.

Network: convert network devices to use struct device instead of class_device

2007-02-07T18:37:11+00:00

This lets the network core have the ability to handle suspend/resume issues, if it wants to. Thanks to Frederik Deweerdt for the arm driver fixes. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

[PATCH] MACB: Use __raw register access

2006-12-11T14:31:28+00:00

Since macb is a chip-internal device, use __raw_readl and __raw_writel instead of readl/writel. This will perform native-endian accesses, which is the right thing to do on both AVR32 and ARM devices. Signed-off-by: Haavard Skinnemoen Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik
