From 0b7bdc7fab5703ddff677a82c1de7b3ac500974f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jakub Kicinski Date: Tue, 7 Jan 2025 08:08:40 -0800 Subject: netdev: define NETDEV_INTERNAL Linus suggested during one of past maintainer summits (in context of a DMA_BUF discussion) that symbol namespaces can be used to prevent unwelcome but in-tree code from using all exported functions. Create a namespace for netdev. Export netdev_rx_queue_restart(), drivers may want to use it since it gives them a simple and safe way to restart a queue to apply config changes. But it's both too low level and too actively developed to be used outside netdev.
