net: ep93xx_eth: drop GFP_DMA from call to dma_alloc_coherent()

2011-06-11T23:25:16Z

Commit a197b59ae6e8 (mm: fail GFP_DMA allocations when ZONE_DMA is not configured) made page allocator to return NULL if GFP_DMA is set but CONFIG_ZONE_DMA is disabled. This causes ep93xx_eth to fail: WARNING: at mm/page_alloc.c:2251 __alloc_pages_nodemask+0x11c/0x638() Modules linked in: [] (unwind_backtrace+0x0/0xf4) from [] (warn_slowpath_common+0x48/0x60) [] (warn_slowpath_common+0x48/0x60) from [] (warn_slowpath_null+0x1c/0x24) [] (warn_slowpath_null+0x1c/0x24) from [] (__alloc_pages_nodemask+0x11c/0x638) [] (__alloc_pages_nodemask+0x11c/0x638) from [] (__dma_alloc+0x8c/0x3ec) [] (__dma_alloc+0x8c/0x3ec) from [] (dma_alloc_coherent+0x54/0x60) [] (dma_alloc_coherent+0x54/0x60) from [] (ep93xx_open+0x20/0x864) [] (ep93xx_open+0x20/0x864) from [] (__dev_open+0xb8/0x108) [] (__dev_open+0xb8/0x108) from [] (__dev_change_flags+0x70/0x128) [] (__dev_change_flags+0x70/0x128) from [] (dev_change_flags+0x10/0x48) [] (dev_change_flags+0x10/0x48) from [] (ip_auto_config+0x190/0xf68) [] (ip_auto_config+0x190/0xf68) from [] (do_one_initcall+0x34/0x18c) [] (do_one_initcall+0x34/0x18c) from [] (kernel_init+0x94/0x134) [] (kernel_init+0x94/0x134) from [] (kernel_thread_exit+0x0/0x8) Since there is no restrictions for DMA on ep93xx, we can fix this by just removing the GFP_DMA flag from the call.

net: ep93xx_eth: allocate buffers using kmalloc()

2011-06-11T23:25:15Z

We can use simply kmalloc() to allocate the buffers. This also simplifies the code and allows us to perform DMA sync operations more easily. Memory is allocated with only GFP_KERNEL since there are no DMA allocation restrictions on this platform.

net: ep93xx_eth: pass struct device to DMA API functions

2011-06-11T23:25:15Z

We shouldn't use NULL for any DMA API functions, unless we are dealing with ISA or EISA device. So pass correct struct dev pointer to these functions. Signed-off-by: Mika Westerberg Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

NET: am79c961: ensure multicast filter is correctly set at open

2011-06-11T22:56:00Z

We were clearing out the multicast filter whenever the interface was upped, and not setting the mode bits correctly. This can cause problems if there are any multicast addresses already set at this point, or if ALLMULTI was set. Signed-off-by: Russell King Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

NET: am79c961: ensure asm() statements are marked volatile

Without this the compiler can (and does) optimize register reads away from within loops, and other such optimizations. Signed-off-by: Russell King Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ptp: Added a clock driver for the IXP46x.
