2007-07-31	[NET]: ethtool_perm_addr only has one implementation	Matthew Wilcox	1	-1/+0
	All drivers implement ethtool get_perm_addr the same way -- by calling the generic function. So we can inline the generic function into the caller and avoid going through the drivers. Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox <matthew@wil.cx> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2007-04-25	[ETH]: Make eth_type_trans set skb->dev like the other *_type_trans	Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo	1	-1/+0
	One less thing for drivers writers to worry about. Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2007-04-09	[SC92031]: Fix priv->lock context	Herbert Xu	1	-10/+10
	The spin_lock calls made in dev->open and dev->close must disable BH since open/close are made in process context. Conversely, the call in dev->hard_start_xmit does not need to disable BH since it is already executing with BH disabled.

2007-02-05	driver for Silan SC92031 netdev	Cesar Eduardo Barros	1	-0/+1620
	This is a driver for the Silan SC92031/Rsltek 8139D NIC chip. This chip is found on at least one counterfeit Encore ENL832-TX-RENT NIC [1], which came with a mini-CD with the 2.4 driver. A slightly older version of the driver was found at [2]. The main difference between them is that the newer one has a small bugfix in the RX path, a lot of gratuitous renaming of functions, all the printable strings changed to show as a "Rsltek 8139D" [sic], and a PCI ID of 8139 instead of 2031. The driver on this patch is a rewrite of the vendor drivers (based mostly on the older one). Changes from the previous patch sent to netdev: - Use MMIO instead of PIO - Changed TX bounce buffers allocation - Use skb_copy_and_csum_dev - Several small bug fixes - Tested for more than just a few minutes each time [1] See http://www.encore-usa.com/faq.php under ENL832-TX-RENT for more information [2] Look for SL_LINUX.ZIP (which is really a .tar.gz) at http://broadbandforum.in/dataone_Intex_LAN_cardlinux-t4207-s15.html [3] To compile on 2.6.17, simply add back the last argument to the interrupt handler in two places, and copy the boolean declarations from 2.6.19 [akpm@osdl.org: build fixes] Signed-off-by: Cesar Eduardo Barros <cesarb@cesarb.net> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
