2006-01-04[NET]: Don't exclude broadcast addresses from is_multicast_ether_addr()Stephen Hemminger1-1/+2
The check for multicast shouldn't exclude broadcast type addresses. This reverts the incorrect change done in 2.6.13. The broadcast address is a multicast address and should be excluded from being a valid_ether_address for use in bridging or device address.

2005-11-03[ETHERNET]: Add ether stuff to docbookStephen Hemminger1-9/+15
Fix up etherdevice docbook comments and make them (and other networking stuff) get dragged into the kernel-api. Delete the old 8390 stuff, it really isn't interesting anymore. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@mandriva.com>
2005-11-03[ETHERNET]: Optimize is_broadcast_ether_addrStephen Hemminger1-2/+1
Optimize the match for broadcast address by using bit operations instead of comparison. This saves a number of conditional branches, and generates smaller code. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@mandriva.com>
2005-10-29[ETH]: ether address compareStephen Hemminger1-0/+16
Expose faster ether compare for use by protocols and other driver. And change name to be more consistent with other ether address manipulation routines in same file Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@mandriva.com>

2005-06-29[NET]: Add missing include to linux/netdevice.hArnd Bergmann1-0/+1
linux/etherdevice.h can't be included standalone at the moment, which is required in order to sort the header files in the recommended alphabetic order. This patch fixes that and is needed to build spider_net. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arndb@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2005-05-30[NET]: Add is_multicast_ether_addr() in include/linux/etherdevice.hMichael Ellerman1-4/+18
This patch adds is_multicast_ether_addr() to go along with is_valid_ether_addr() and friends. It then changes is_valid_ether_addr() to use the new macro, and fixes up the comment on that function to move implementation details out of the API doco.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
