8401a108 - eth: remove the DLink/Sundance (ST201) driver

Tue, 08 Oct 2024 15:48:24 +0000

eth: remove the DLink/Sundance (ST201) driverKonstantin reports the maintainer's address bounces.There is no other maintainer and the driver is quite old.There is a good chance nobody is using this driver any more.Let's try to remove it completely, we can revert it back inif someone complains.Link: https://lore.kernel.org/20240925-bizarre-earwig-from-pluto-1484aa@lemu/Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski Reviewed-by: Simon Horman Acked-by: Denis Kirjanov Signed-off-by: David S.

a7f7f624 - treewide: replace '---help---' in Kconfig files with 'help'

Sat, 13 Jun 2020 16:50:22 +0000

treewide: replace '---help---' in Kconfig files with 'help'Since commit 84af7a6194e4 ("checkpatch: kconfig: prefer 'help' over'---help---'"), the number of '---help---' has been graduallydecreasing, but there are still more than 2400 instances.This commit finishes the conversion. While I touched the lines,I also fixed the indentation.There are a variety of indentation styles found. a) 4 spaces + '---help---' b) 7 spaces + '---help---' c) 8 spaces + '---help---' d) 1 space + 1 tab + '---help---' e) 1 tab + '---help---' (correct indentation) f) 1 tab + 1 space + '---help---' g) 1 tab + 2 spaces + '---help---'In order to convert all of them to 1 tab + 'help', I ran thefollowing commend: $ find . -name 'Kconfig*' | xargs sed -i 's/^[[:space:]]*---help---/\thelp/'Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada List of files: /linux-6.15/drivers/net/ethernet/dlink/Kconfig

c3f45d32 - dl2k: Add support for IP1000A-based cards

Sun, 15 Nov 2015 21:36:11 +0000

dl2k: Add support for IP1000A-based cardsAdd support for IP1000A chips to dl2k driver.IP1000A chip looks like a TC9020 with integrated PHY.This allows IP1000A chips to work reliably because the ipg driver isbuggy - it loses packets under load and then completely stopstransmitting data.Tested with Asus NX1101 v2.0 at 10, 100 and 1000Mbps:vendor=0x13f0 device=0x1023 (rev 0x41)subsystem vendor=0x1043 device=0x8180MAC address registers access needed to be changed from 8-bit to 16-bitbecause 8-bit does not work on IP1000A. 8-bit access is not evenallowed in the TC9020 datasheet (although it worked). 16-bit accessworks on both.Tested that it does not break D-Link DGE-550T (DL-2000 chip, probablya rebranded TC9020):vendor=0x1186 device=0x4000 (rev 0x0c)subsystem vendor=0x1186 device=0x4000Signed-off-by: Ondrej Zary Reviewed-by: Andy Shevchenko Signed-off-by: David S.

138b15ed - drivers/net: remove all references to obsolete Ethernet-HOWTO

Sun, 21 Jun 2015 20:28:02 +0000

drivers/net: remove all references to obsolete Ethernet-HOWTOThis howto made sense in the 1990s when users had to manually configureISA cards with jumpers or vendor utilities, but with the implementationof PCI it became increasingly less and less relevant, to the point whereit has been well over a decade since I last updated it. And there isno value in anyone else taking over updating it either.However the references to it continue to spread as boiler plate textfrom one Kconfig file into the next. We are not doing end users anyfavours by pointing them at this old document, so lets kill it withfire, once and for all, to hopefully stop any further spread.No code is changed in this commit, just Kconfig help text.Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker Signed-off-by: David S.

a1606c7d - net: Move MII out from under NET_CORE and hide it

Tue, 18 Jun 2013 02:24:51 +0000

net: Move MII out from under NET_CORE and hide itAll drivers that select MII also need to select NET_CORE because MIIdepends on it. This is a bit ridiculous because NET_CORE is just amenu option that doesn't enable any code by itself.There is also no need for it to be a visible option, since its usersall select it.Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings Acked-by: Jeff Kirsher Signed-off-by: David S.

168e06ae - drivers/net: delete old parallel port de600/de620 drivers

Thu, 10 Jan 2013 01:30:26 +0000

drivers/net: delete old parallel port de600/de620 driversThe parallel port is largely replaced by USB, and even in theday where these drivers were current, the documented speed wasless than 100kB/s. Let us not pretend that anyone cares aboutthese drivers anymore, or worse - pretend that anyone is usingthem on a modern kernel.As a side bonus, this is the end of legacy parallel port ethernet,so we get to drop the whole chunk relating to that in the legacySpace.c file containing the non-PCI unified probe dispatch.Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker List of files: /linux-6.15/drivers/net/ethernet/dlink/Kconfig

aaba215c - MII: fix Kconfig dependencies for MII

Wed, 14 Sep 2011 21:23:14 +0000

MII: fix Kconfig dependencies for MIIMII Kconfig option is apart of the core networking drivers andby default NET_CORE is enabled so drivers selecting MII willhave MII enabled as well. It was found using the randconfigoption during testing, MII would be selected but NET_COREcould be disabled. This caused a dependency error.Resolved the dependency by selecting NET_CORE when MII isselected.Reported-by: Emil Tantilov Signed-off-by: Jeff Kirsher Tested-by: Aaron Brown Signed-off-by: David S.

88f07484 - drivers/net/ethernet/*: Enabled vendor Kconfig options

Tue, 23 Aug 2011 08:29:52 +0000

drivers/net/ethernet/*: Enabled vendor Kconfig optionsBased on finds for Stephen Rothwell, where current defconfig'senable a ethernet driver and it is not compiled due to the newlyadded NET_VENDOR_* component of Kconfig.This patch enables all the "new" Kconfig options so that currentdefconfig's will continue to compile the expected drivers. Inaddition, by enabling all the new Kconfig options does not addany un-expected options.CC: Stephen Rothwll Signed-off-by: Jeff Kirsher List of files: /linux-6.15/drivers/net/ethernet/dlink/Kconfig
