Subject: [PATCH net v4 0/4] forcedeth: minor fixes for stats, rmmod, sparse
Date: Fri, 4 Nov 2011 21:04:38 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1320463771.git.david.decotigny@google.com> (raw)
David,
Thanks for your feedback. Here is v4, with only the (minor) bug fixes
for net. I am setting the "new features" patches aside for later
(net-next).
Since I am still very much of a newbie with the way net & net-next
work, could you please redirect me to some pointer on how/when the
schedule works?
Regards,
Tested: 16-way x86_64 + forcedeth
Changes since v3:
- removed feature additions, this leaves minor sparse and stats
fixes. Feature additions shipped previously will go to net-next
Changes since v2:
- removed "Fix a race during rmmod of forcedeth" from the series
(will look at it separately with original author)
- added "remove unneeded stats updates" and "64-bit stats"
- reordered patches
Changes since v1:
- rebased on top of netdev tip
- do not repeat name of device in netdev_dbg
- do not completely mute TX timeout messages when debug_tx_timeout is
not set
- make debug_tx_timeout writable in /sys/module
Note: I am re-submitting "expose module parameters in /sys/module" as
it can be useful in production and I was assured it doesn't add
much memory overhead by the sysfs maintainers.
Tested:
16-way x86_64 SMP, dual forcedeth ->
