[U-Boot] [PATCH] qemu_mips: Fix CONFIG_NET_MULTI build warning

2009-10-19 Thread Shinya Kuribayashi
eth.c:497:2: warning: #warning Ethernet driver is deprecated. Please update to 
use CONFIG_NET_MULTI

Signed-off-by: Shinya Kuribayashi skuri...@pobox.com

 I have a few concerns about this fix:

 First.  I'm not sure why CONFIG_NET_MULTI is undefed for qemu_mips,
 while CONFIG_DRIVER_NE2000 has been enabled for qemu_mips at an early
 stage.

 I don't follow recent changes around eth.c and CONFIG_NET_MULTI, but
 it's probably CONFIG_NET_MULTI used to be used strictly for multi
 ports, isn't it?

 Next.  As far as looking at drivers/net/ne2000*.[ch], NE2000 driver
 doesn't seem to require board_eth_init() or cpu_eth_init().  Right?
 Therefore I've not added a corresponding hook in board/qemu_mips/
 qemu_mips.c.  If my understanding is wrong, please let me know.

Currently, there are two incompatible networking APIs.  One that uses 
CONFIG_NET_MULTI, and one that doesn't.  I'm trying to move everything 
towards the former (single-port applications are of course a degenerate 
instance of multi-port ones).  Once all drivers have been ported to the 
MULTI API, that config option will magically disappear.
  Next.  As far as looking at drivers/net/ne2000*.[ch], NE2000 driver
  doesn't seem to require board_eth_init() or cpu_eth_init().  Right?
  Therefore I've not added a corresponding hook in board/qemu_mips/
  qemu_mips.c.  If my understanding is wrong, please let me know.

   
The NE2000 driver hasn't been ported yet.  It's on my short term to-do 
list, and will be in the next release (01.2010, I guess?)

This won't do anything other than disabling networking.  Since QEMU is 
an emulator, though, maybe it would make sense to use a device driver 
that has CONFIG_NET_MULTI support?
  #define MEM_SIZE 128
  
   
If the warning isn't more than a nuisance, please live with it for now.

So CONFIG_NE2000_DRIVER needs some work, and is not ready for
migration.  I missed that point, thanks for clarification.

Who knows?  It's hard, at least for me, to say.  But it'd be better to
port NE2000 driver into an appropriate shape whether it's used by QEMU
or not.

No problem.  Please ignore the patch.
