Gave the patch series a quick spin on RM9200 as well and the at91_ether driver still works. Not many patches here that touch the shared code though. So FWIW; Tested-by: Joachim Eastwood Note: Needed the patch you sent out (net/at91_ether: fix the use of macb structure) to fix the build error on the struct rename. regards Joachim Eastwood -- 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/

[PATCH v3 00/10] net/macb: driver enhancement concerning GEM support, ring logic and cleanup
This is an enhancement work that began several years ago. I try to catchup with some performance improvement that has been implemented then by Havard. The ring index logic and the TX error path modification are the biggest changes but some cleanup/debugging have been added along the way. The GEM revision will benefit from the Gigabit support. Newer pinctrl infrastructure support is added but it is optional. The series has been tested on several Atmel AT91 SoC with the two MACB/GEM flavors. v3: - rebased on net-next to take into account current effor to merge at91_ether with macb drivers - add additional patch to use the new pinctrl infrastructure v2: - modify the tx error handling: now uses a workqueue - information provided by ethtool -i were not accurate: removed 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 Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD (1): net/macb: add pinctrl consumer support 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 | 446 +--- drivers/net/ethernet/cadence/macb.h | 30 ++- 2 files changed, 334 insertions(+), 142 deletions(-) -- 1.8.0 -- 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/
