The reason the duplication exists is that this was originally coded on top of the current cpsw code. So i didn't want to change any part of the working driver. Since we are re-working a bunch of stuff now this makes sense > >+ > >+ return ret; > >+} > >+ > >+int cpsw_ale_mcast_del_modify(struct cpsw_ale *ale, u8 *addr, int port_mask, > >+ int flags, u16 vid) > See above. and yes :) > > >+{ > >+ int mcast_members, ret; > >+ int idx; > >+ > >+ mcast_members = cpsw_ale_read_mc(ale, addr, flags, vid) & ~port_mask; > >+ idx = cpsw_ale_match_addr(ale, addr, (flags & ALE_VLAN) ? vid : 0); > >+ if (idx < 0) > >+ return 0; > >+ ret = cpsw_ale_del_mcast(ale, addr, mcast_members, flags, vid); > >+ > >+ return ret; > >+} > >+ Regards, /Ilias
