2017-03-21Enable tx timestamping on loopback and dummyEzequiel Lara Gomez
This enables developing code that uses SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_SOFTWARE by using localhost addresses (without needing to send packets outside), as well as enabling unit and functional testing of TX timestamping code without needing hardware support or network access. It also fulfills the expectation of software network devices supporting software-based timestamping. Tested on qemu using txtimestamping.c from the kernel selftests, and ethtool -T.

2017-01-24net: dummy: Introduce dummy virtual functionsPhil Sutter
The idea for this was born when testing VF support in iproute2 which was impeded by hardware requirements. In fact, not every VF-capable hardware driver implements all netdev ops, so testing the interface is still hard to do even with a well-sorted hardware shelf. To overcome this and allow for testing the user-kernel interface, this patch allows to turn dummy into a PF with a configurable amount of VFs. Since my patch series 'bus-agnostic-num-vf' has been accepted, implementing the required interfaces is pretty straightforward: Iff 'num_vfs' module parameter was given a value >0, a dummy bus type is being registered which implements the 'num_vf()' callback. Additionally, a dummy parent device common to all dummy devices is registered which sits on the above dummy bus. Joint work with Sabrina Dubroca.

2017-01-08net: make ndo_get_stats64 a void functionstephen hemminger
The network device operation for reading statistics is only called in one place, and it ignores the return value. Having a structure return value is potentially confusing because some future driver could incorrectly assume that the return value was used. Fix all drivers with ndo_get_stats64 to have a void function. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <sthemmin@microsoft.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Replace the bh safe variant with the hard irq safe variant. We need a hard irq safe variant to deal with netpoll transmitting packets from hard irq context, and we need it in most if not all of the places using the bh safe variant.

2013-11-06net: Explicitly initialize u64_stats_sync structures for lockdepJohn Stultz
In order to enable lockdep on seqcount/seqlock structures, we must explicitly initialize any locks. The u64_stats_sync structure, uses a seqcount, and thus we need to introduce a u64_stats_init() function and use it to initialize the structure. This unfortunately adds a lot of fairly trivial initialization code to a number of drivers. But the benefit of ensuring correctness makes this worth while. Because these changes are required for lockdep to be enabled, and the changes are quite trivial, I've not yet split this patch out into 30-some separate patches, as I figured it would be better to get the various maintainers thoughts on how to best merge this change along with the seqcount lockdep enablement.
