Use kzalloc rather than the combination of kmalloc and memset. The semantic patch that makes this change is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/ ) // <smpl> @@ expression x,size,flags; statement S; @@ -x = kmalloc(size,flags); +x = kzalloc(size,flags); if (x == NULL) S -memset(x, 0, size); // </smpl> Signed-off-by:

Now that core network takes care of trans_start updates, dont do it in drivers themselves, if possible. Drivers can avoid one cache miss (on dev->trans_start) in their start_xmit() handler. Exceptions are NETIF_F_LLTX drivers Signed-off-by:

Converts the list and the core manipulating with it to be the same as uc_list. +uses two functions for adding/removing mc address (normal and "global" variant) instead of a function parameter. +removes dev_mcast.c completely. +exposes netdev_hw_addr_list_* macros along with __hw_addr_* functions for manipulation with lists on a sandbox (used in bonding and 80211 drivers) Signed-off-by:

This patch removes config dependency on x86 to build vmxnet3 driver. Thus the driver can be built on big endian architectures now. Although vmxnet3 is not supported on VMs other than x86 architecture, all this code goes in to ensure correctness. If the code is not dependent on x86, it should not assume little endian architecture in any of its operations. Signed-off-by:

vmxnet3 was using dprintk() for debugging output. This was defined in <linux/dst.h> and was the only thing that was used from that header file. This caused compile errors when CONFIG_BLOCK was not enabled due to bio* and BIO* uses in the header file, so change this driver to use dev_dbg() for debugging output. include/linux/dst.h:520: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type include/linux/dst.h:520: error: 'BIO_POOL_BITS' undeclared (first use in this function) include/linux/dst.h:521: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type include/linux/dst.h:522: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type include/linux/dst.h:525: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type make[4]: *** [drivers/net/vmxnet3/vmxnet3_drv.o] Error 1 Signed-off-by:
