Date: Mon, 20 Jun 2011 21:14:54 +0200 (CEST) From: Michał Mirosław <mirq-linux@...e.qmqm.pl> To: netdev@...r.kernel.org Cc: "David S. Miller" <davem@...emloft.net>, Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@...arflare.com> Subject: [RFT PATCH 0/9] Cleanup and extension of netdev features This is a preview of the cleanups pending after getting rid of old ethtool ops from remaining drivers. Patches inside: 1. (placeholder for Intel patches) 2. removal of old ethtool ops (most further patches depend on this one) 3. break association of ETH_FLAG_* with netdev features this will allow to change the representation and access pattern of the feature sets if later needed; as a bonus, the features can be (almost) freely rearranged 4. introducing netdev_features_t use new type wherever features are passed around (this needed new include - otherwise linux/skbuff.h would need linux/netdevice.h) 5. cleanup of feature bits 6. cleanup of feature name table (depends on #5) 7. prepare ethtool [GS]FEATURES for larger netdev_features_t 8. tadaaa: 64 bits for features 9. a lone cleanup patch for NOCACHE_COPY feature Bear in mind, that I only compile tested the whole series (x86 allyesconfig). I'll do per-patch builds after all needed patches are in net-next. Note about netdev_features_t: I don't like the idea of converting it to bitmap type and building wrappers around, so I won't even try to implement it. Nevertheless, this series will make the conversion easier if someone ever wants to go that way.
