This is a patchset for inclusion of the Intel igb wired ethernet driver.
Patches are split per kernel release that makes it easier to review
the changes and gives a nice history of what was necessary for each
release. Also the igb driver changes have been split up into individual
patches in patches/collateral-evolutions/network/84-ethernet. This and
file names are up for discussion, suggestions welcome.
v2:
Instead of backporting struct ethtool_ops the code in igb has been
wrapped in if LINUX_VERSION_CODE statements. This will result in higher
maintenance because of conflicts with future upstream igb changes but it
seems there's no better solution so far.
The patches in patches/collateral-evolutions/network/84-ethernet have
been kept separate but with a leading number to make sure they get
applied in the correct order.
The code that activates igb has been pushed to the end of the series to
not break any bisecting.
v3:
Use original struct ptp_clock and handle ptp_clock_register() with a
define. Also removed unused function warnings by wrapping the code
in if LINUX_VERSION_CODE statements.
v4:
Add several LINUX_BACKPORT defines to prevent possible clashes with
distro backports. Patches rebased and tested against next-20140124.
Thank you Stefan for the patches.
I applied them with some changes. backports did not compile on some
older kernels, because include/linux/u64_stats_sync.h was missing there.
I also fixed some problems on CentOS 6.5 and Suse SLES 11 SP3. Some
strutes that are not used were removed too.
Great! Thanks a lot. I'll take a look at the changes. I didn't see any
trouble when running ckmake which makes me wonder if I missed out on
any testing I could've run.
Stefan
