Subject: [PATCH] mv643xx_eth support for platform device interface + more
Date: Mon, 13 Dec 2004 15:09:49 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20041213220949.GA19609@xyzzy> (raw)
In porting the mv643xx ethernet driver for use by PPC, I modified it
to use the platform device interface, fixed the hardware checksum support
and did some miscellaneous bug fixes and cleanups.
I'll follow up with these six patches:
1 Remove redundant or useless code.
2 Replace fixed count spins with waits on hardware status bits
3 Fix code to enable hardware checksum generation for TX packets
4 Convert from pci_map_* to dma_map_* interface
5 Add support for platform device interface
6 Add support for several configurable parameters via platform device
Of these patches, the only one that changes the driver interface is patch 5.
I don't have any MIPS hardware, so I'd appreciate testing by those who do.
I have some additional cleanups, but I want to get these in the queue
or at least get feedback first.
Thanks,
-Dale Farnsworth
