2012-09-05ibmveth: Fix alignment of rx queue bugSantiago Leon1-17/+9
This patch fixes a bug found by Nish Aravamudan (https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/5/15/220) where the driver is not following the spec (it is not aligning the rx buffer on a 16-byte boundary) and the hypervisor aborts the registration, making the device unusable. The fix follows BenH's recommendation (https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/7/20/461) to replace the kmalloc+map for a single call to dma_alloc_coherent() because that function always aligns to a 16-byte boundary. The stable trees will run into this bug whenever the rx buffer kmalloc call returns something not aligned on a 16-byte boundary.

2012-03-28powerpc+sparc/vio: Modernize driver registrationBenjamin Herrenschmidt1-5/+2
This makes vio_register_driver() get the module owner & name at compile time like PCI drivers do, and adds a name pointer directly in struct vio_driver to avoid having to explicitly initialize the embedded struct device.

2011-10-19net: add skb frag size accessorsEric Dumazet1-3/+3
To ease skb->truesize sanitization, its better to be able to localize all references to skb frags size. Define accessors : skb_frag_size() to fetch frag size, and skb_frag_size_{set|add|sub}() to manipulate it. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: David S.

Move the IBM drivers into drivers/net/ethernet/ibm/ and make the necessary Kconfig and Makefile changes. - Renamed ibm_new_emac to emac - Cleaned up Makefile and Kconfig options which referred to IBM_NEW_EMAC to IBM_EMAC - ibmlana driver is a National Semiconductor SONIC driver so it was not moved CC: Christoph Raisch <[email protected]> CC: Santiago Leon <[email protected]> CC: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <[email protected]> CC: David Gibson <[email protected]> CC: Kyle Lucke <[email protected]> CC: Michael Ellerman <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Jeff Kirsher <[email protected]>
