net: Extra '_get' in declaration of arch_get_platform_mac_address

2018-04-26T09:02:19Z

[ Upstream commit e728789c52afccc1275cba1dd812f03abe16ea3c ] In commit c7f5d105495a ("net: Add eth_platform_get_mac_address() helper."), two declarations were added: int eth_platform_get_mac_address(struct device *dev, u8 *mac_addr); unsigned char *arch_get_platform_get_mac_address(void); An extra '_get' was introduced in arch_get_platform_get_mac_address, remove it.

etherdevice: remove unused eth_addr_greater

2017-03-13T06:54:07Z

eth_addr_greater() was introduced for the mv88e6xxx driver, but is not used anymore. There is no other user, thus remove this function. Signed-off-by: Vivien Didelot Reviewed-by: Andrew Lunn Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: add devm version of alloc_etherdev_mqs function

2017-01-30T00:24:12Z

This patch adds devm_alloc_etherdev_mqs function and devm_alloc_etherdev macro. These can be used for simpler netdev allocation without having to care about calling free_netdev. Thanks to this change drivers, their error paths and removal paths may get simpler by a bit. Signed-off-by: Rafał Miłecki Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

dsa: mv88e6xxx: Optimise atu_get

2017-01-04T21:34:34Z

Lookup in the ATU can be performed starting from a given MAC address. This is faster than starting with the first possible MAC address and iterating all entries. Entries are returned in numeric order. So if the MAC address returned is bigger than what we are searching for, we know it is not in the ATU. Using the benchmark provided by Volodymyr Bendiuga , https://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg411550.html on an Marvell Armada 370 RD, the test to add a number of static fdb entries went from 1.616531 seconds to 0.312052 seconds.

etherdevice.h & bridge: netfilter: Add and use ether_addr_equal_masked

There are code duplications of a masked ethernet address comparison here so make it a separate function instead. Miscellanea: o Neaten alignment of FWINV macro uses to make it clearer for the reader Signed-off-by: Joe Perches Acked-by: David S. Miller Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso

net: Add eth_platform_get_mac_address() helper.

2016-01-06T21:31:56Z

A repeating pattern in drivers has become to use OF node information and, if not found, platform specific host information to extract the ethernet address for a given device. Currently this is done with a call to of_get_mac_address() and then some ifdef'd stuff for SPARC. Consolidate this into a portable routine, and provide the arch_get_platform_mac_address() weak function hook for all architectures to implement if they want. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: fix endian check warning in etherdevice.h

Sparse builds have been warning for a really long time now that etherdevice.h has a conversion that is unsafe. include/linux/etherdevice.h:79:32: warning: restricted __be16 degrades to integer This code change fixes the issue and generates the exact same assembly before/after (checked on x86_64) Fixes: 2c722fe1c821 (etherdevice: Optimize a few is__ether_addr functions) Signed-off-by: Jesse Brandeburg CC: Joe Perches Signed-off-by: David S.

etherdev: Fix sparse error, make test usable by other functions

2015-05-05T23:24:42Z

This change does two things. First it fixes a sparse error for the fact that the __be16 degrades to an integer. Since that is actually what I am kind of doing I am simply working around that by forcing both sides of the comparison to u16. Also I realized on some compilers I was generating another instruction for big endian systems such as PowerPC since it was masking the value before doing the comparison. So to resolve that I have simply pulled the mask out and wrapped it in an #ifndef __BIG_ENDIAN. Lastly I pulled this all out into its own function. I notices there are similar checks in a number of other places so this function can be reused there to help reduce overhead in these paths as well.

etherdev: Process is_multicast_ether_addr at same size as other operations

2015-05-04T02:30:36Z

This change makes it so that we process the address in is_multicast_ether_addr at the same size as the other calls. This allows us to avoid duplicate reads when used with other calls such as is_zero_ether_addr or eth_addr_copy. In addition I have added a 64 bit version of the function so in eth_type_trans we can process the destination address as a 64 bit value throughout.
