net: usb: kaweth: constify usb_device_id

2017-08-09T00:47:59+00:00

usb_device_id are not supposed to change at runtime. All functions working with usb_device_id provided by work with const usb_device_id. So mark the non-const structs as const. Signed-off-by: Arvind Yadav Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

networking: make skb_push & __skb_push return void pointers

2017-06-16T15:48:40+00:00

It seems like a historic accident that these return unsigned char *, and in many places that means casts are required, more often than not. Make these functions return void * and remove all the casts across the tree, adding a (u8 *) cast only where the unsigned char pointer was used directly, all done with the following spatch: @@ expression SKB, LEN; typedef u8; identifier fn = { skb_push, __skb_push, skb_push_rcsum }; @@ - *(fn(SKB, LEN)) + *(u8 *)fn(SKB, LEN) @@ expression E, SKB, LEN; identifier fn = { skb_push, __skb_push, skb_push_rcsum }; type T; @@ - E = ((T *)(fn(SKB, LEN))) + E = fn(SKB, LEN) @@ expression SKB, LEN; identifier fn = { skb_push, __skb_push, skb_push_rcsum }; @@ - fn(SKB, LEN)[0] + *(u8 *)fn(SKB, LEN) Note that the last part there converts from push(...)[0] to the more idiomatic *(u8 *)push(...).

Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net

2017-04-22T03:23:53+00:00

Both conflict were simple overlapping changes. In the kaweth case, Eric Dumazet's skb_cow() bug fix overlapped the conversion of the driver in net-next to use in-netdev stats. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

kaweth: use skb_cow_head() to deal with cloned skbs

2017-04-21T17:24:06+00:00

We can use skb_cow_head() to properly deal with clones, especially the ones coming from TCP stack that allow their head being modified. This avoids a copy. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Cc: James Hughes Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

usbnet: kaweth: Use net_device_stats from struct net_device

2017-04-07T14:03:33+00:00

Instead of using a private copy of struct net_device_stats in struct kaweth_device, use stats from struct net_device. Also remove the now unnecessary .ndo_get_stats function. Cc: linux-usb@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Tobias Klauser Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

Replace with globally

2016-12-24T19:46:01+00:00

This was entirely automated, using the script by Al: PATT='^[[:blank:]]*#[[:blank:]]*include[[:blank:]]*' sed -i -e "s!$PATT!#include !" \ $(git grep -l "$PATT"|grep -v ^include/linux/uaccess.h) to do the replacement at the end of the merge window.

net: deprecate eth_change_mtu, remove usage

2016-10-13T13:36:57+00:00

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.

kaweth: remove obsolete debugging statements

2016-09-08T00:45:31+00:00

SOme statements in the driver only served to inform which functions were entered. Ftrace can do that just as good without needing memory. Remove the statements. Signed-off-by: Oliver Neukum Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

kaweth: fix oops upon failed memory allocation

kaweth: fix firmware download

2016-08-19T06:25:33+00:00

This fixes the oops discovered by the Umap2 project and Alan Stern. The intf member needs to be set before the firmware is downloaded. Signed-off-by: Oliver Neukum Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
