I am about to re-send this patch series. Should I rebase it on top of Joachim's recent modifications? I mean, I plan to rebase them on top of net-next, is it the proper thing to do? > Havard Skinnemoen (4): > net/macb: memory barriers cleanup > net/macb: change debugging messages > net/macb: clean up ring buffer logic > net/macb: Offset first RX buffer by two bytes > > Nicolas Ferre (4): > net/macb: remove macb_get_drvinfo() > net/macb: tx status is more than 8 bits now > net/macb: ethtool interface: add register dump feature > net/macb: better manage tx errors > > Patrice Vilchez (1): > net/macb: Add support for Gigabit Ethernet mode > > drivers/net/ethernet/cadence/macb.c | 433 > +++++++++++++++++++++++++----------- > drivers/net/ethernet/cadence/macb.h | 30 ++- > 2 files changed, 321 insertions(+), 142 deletions(-) Best regards, -- Nicolas Ferre -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
