tmspci: fix request_irq race

2009-03-05T03:24:27+00:00

Currently, tmspci tokenring driver crashes on device initialization
because it requests its irq before initializing corresponding data
structures. Fix this by moving request_irq call to a safer place.

net: Allow dependancies of FDDI & Tokenring to be modular.

2008-12-28T04:43:48+00:00

I noticed it isn't possible to build token ring & fddi drivers
without causing LLC, and a bunch of other things to be forced
built-in.  For distro kernels, this means carrying a chunk of
code in the vmlinuz, even if the user doesn't use those protocols.

drivers/net/tokenring: fix sparse warnings: make symbols static

Fix this sparse warnings:

netdevice: Kill netdev->priv

2008-12-08T09:14:16+00:00

This is the last shoot of this series.
After I removing all directly reference of netdev->priv, I am killing
"priv" of "struct net_device" and fixing relative comments/docs.

Anyone will not be allowed to reference netdev->priv directly.
If you want to reference the memory of private data, use netdev_priv()
instead.
If the private data is not allocted when alloc_netdev(), use
netdev->ml_priv to point that memory after you creating that private
data.

netdevice: safe convert to netdev_priv() #part-3

2008-11-13T07:38:36+00:00

We have some reasons to kill netdev->priv:
1. netdev->priv is equal to netdev_priv().
2. netdev_priv() wraps the calculation of netdev->priv's offset, obviously
   netdev_priv() is more flexible than netdev->priv.
But we cann't kill netdev->priv, because so many drivers reference to it
directly.

This patch is a safe convert for netdev->priv to netdev_priv(netdev).
Since all of the netdev->priv is only for read.
But it is too big to be sent in one mail.
I split it to 4 parts and make every part smaller than 100,000 bytes,
which is max size allowed by vger.

drivers/net: Kill now superfluous ->last_rx stores.

2008-11-04T05:11:17+00:00

The generic packet receive code takes care of setting
netdev->last_rx when necessary, for the sake of the
bonding ARP monitor.

Drivers need not do it any more.

Some cases had to be skipped over because the drivers
were making use of the ->last_rx value themselves.
