Merge branch 'add-rmnet-driver'
Subash Abhinov Kasiviswanathan says:
====================
net: Add support for rmnet driver
This patch series adds support for the rmnet driver which is required to
support recent chipsets using Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. modems. The data
from hardware follows the multiplexing and aggregation protocol (MAP).
This driver can be used to register onto any physical network device in
IP mode. Physical transports include USB, HSIC, PCIe and IP accelerator.
rmnet driver helps to decode these packets and queue them to network
stack (and encode and transmit it to the physical device).
v1: Same as the RFC patch with some minor fixes for issues reported by
kbuild test robot.
v1->v2: Change datatypes and remove config IOCTL as mentioned by David.
Also fix checkpatch issues and remove some unused code.
v2->v3: Move location to drivers/net and rename to rmnet. Change the
userspace - netlink communication from custom netlink to rtnl_link_ops.
Refactor some code. Use a fixed config for ingress and egress.
v3->v4: Move location to drivers/net/ethernet/qualcomm/.
Fix comments from Stephen and Jiri -
Split the ether and arp type changes into seperate patches.
Remove debug and custom logging and switch to standard netdevice log.
Remove module parameters. Refactor and change some code style issues.
v4->v5: Rename some structs and variables. Move the initializer
before the for loop start. Put the arp type in correct sequence.
v5->v6: Fix comments from Dan -
Use the upper link API. As a result, remove all the refcounting logic.
Device refcount is explicitly held on real_dev on rx_handler
registration only. Modifiy the flow control struct. Remove the unused
ethernet mode handling.
v6->v7: Fix comments from David - Add newline to end of Makefile. Remove
inline from .c files. Move the module init/exit to rmnet config. Fix an
error reported by kbuild test robot for an unused file.
v7->v8: Use a smaller value for ETH_P_MAP as mentioned by David. Change
netdev_info to netdev_dbg as mentioned by Andew. Fix comments from
Stephen regarding netdev_priv and sparse related errors of using 0 as NULL
v8->v9: Fix comments from David - Remove the CFLAG rule. Change the way
rmnet devices are freed. Instead of using a workqueue to unregister devices
individually, go through the list and free all devices within the rtnl_lock().
v9->v10: Actually fix the locking as mentioned by David. The locking scheme is
mentioned in a comment in rmnet_config.c. Change comment near MAP type
definition as mentioned by Dan. Refactor some code.
v10->v11: Allow RMNET to compile as a module as mentioned by David
