<id>urn:sha1:b48b89f9c189d24eb5e2b4a0ac067da5a24ee86d</id>
<content type='text'>
We tell driver developers to always pass NAPI_POLL_WEIGHT
as the weight to netif_napi_add(). This may be confusing
to newcomers, drop the weight argument, those who really
need to tweak the weight can use netif_napi_add_weight().

<content type='text'>
Most drivers use "skb_transport_offset(skb) + tcp_hdrlen(skb)"
to compute headers length for a TCP packet, but others
use more convoluted (but equivalent) ways.

Add skb_tcp_all_headers() and skb_inner_tcp_all_headers()
helpers to harmonize this a bit.

<title>ethernet: constify references to netdev-&gt;dev_addr in drivers</title>

<id>urn:sha1:766607570becbd26cab6d66a544dd8d0d964df5a</id>
<content type='text'>
This big patch sprinkles const on local variables and
function arguments which may refer to netdev-&gt;dev_addr.

Commit 406f42fa0d3c ("net-next: When a bond have a massive amount
of VLANs...") introduced a rbtree for faster Ethernet address look
up. To maintain netdev-&gt;dev_addr in this tree we need to make all
the writes to it got through appropriate helpers.

Some of the changes here are not strictly required - const
is sometimes cast off but pointer is not used for writing.
It seems like it's still better to add the const in case
the code changes later or relevant -W flags get enabled
for the build.

No functional changes.

<title>ethernet: make more use of device_get_ethdev_address()</title>

<content type='text'>
Convert a few drivers to device_get_ethdev_address(),
saving a few LoC.

The check if addr is valid in netsec is superfluous,
device_get_ethdev_addr() already checks that (in
fwnode_get_mac_addr()).

All callers pass in ETH_ALEN and the function itself
will return -EINVAL for any other address length.
Just assume it's ETH_ALEN like all other mac address
helpers (nvm, of, platform).

fwnode_get_mac_address() and device_get_mac_address()
return a pointer to the buffer that was passed to them
on success or NULL on failure. None of the callers
care about the actual value, only if it's NULL or not.

These semantics differ from of_get_mac_address() which
returns an int so to avoid confusion make the device
helpers return an errno.

<title>net: qcom/emac: Replace strlcpy with strscpy</title>

<id>urn:sha1:0a83299935f047f4a051e2a1d32391d34f4e4fcc</id>
<content type='text'>
The strlcpy should not be used because it doesn't limit the source
length. As linus says, it's a completely useless function if you
can't implicitly trust the source string - but that is almost always
why people think they should use it! All in all the BSD function
will lead some potential bugs.

But the strscpy doesn't require reading memory from the src string
beyond the specified "count" bytes, and since the return value is
easier to error-check than strlcpy()'s. In addition, the implementation
is robust to the string changing out from underneath it, unlike the
current strlcpy() implementation.

Thus, We prefer using strscpy instead of strlcpy.
