Yeah, I thought that Mateusz was going to send a checkpatch patch for ether_addr_equal_unaligned to make the memcpy thing a bit clearer. Of course this thing is really only useful for non x86 systems and then only when the memcpy is in a fast-path like multicasting so really it's not very commonly a significant improvement in the first place. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/driverdev-devel
