Hi Greg, This set prepares staging for netdev->dev_addr being const. We need to sprinkle const around some variables and arguments and use appropriate helpers to write to netdev->dev_addr. I'll do another pass over staging before the merge window, this set is based on what's already there in net-next. Jakub Kicinski (8): staging: use eth_hw_addr_set() staging: use eth_hw_addr_set() instead of ether_addr_copy() staging: use eth_hw_addr_set() for dev->addr_len cases staging: qlge: use eth_hw_addr_set() staging: rtl8712: prepare for const netdev->dev_addr staging: unisys: use eth_hw_addr_set() staging: rtl: use eth_hw_addr_set() staging: use eth_hw_addr_set() in orphan drivers drivers/staging/gdm724x/gdm_lte.c | 4 +++- drivers/staging/ks7010/ks_hostif.c | 2 +- drivers/staging/ks7010/ks_wlan_net.c | 4 ++-- drivers/staging/most/net/net.c | 2 +- drivers/staging/octeon/ethernet.c | 2 +- drivers/staging/qlge/qlge_main.c | 18 +++++++----------- drivers/staging/qlge/qlge_mpi.c | 2 +- drivers/staging/r8188eu/os_dep/osdep_service.c | 2 +- drivers/staging/r8188eu/os_dep/usb_intf.c | 2 +- drivers/staging/rtl8192e/rtl8192e/r8192E_dev.c | 7 +++++-- drivers/staging/rtl8192e/rtl8192e/rtl_cam.c | 4 ++-- drivers/staging/rtl8192e/rtl8192e/rtl_core.c | 2 +- drivers/staging/rtl8192u/r8192U.h | 3 ++- drivers/staging/rtl8192u/r8192U_core.c | 15 +++++++++------ drivers/staging/rtl8712/os_intfs.c | 9 +++++---- drivers/staging/rtl8712/rtl871x_cmd.c | 2 +- drivers/staging/rtl8712/rtl871x_cmd.h | 2 +- drivers/staging/rtl8712/usb_intf.c | 2 +- drivers/staging/rtl8723bs/os_dep/os_intfs.c | 4 ++-- .../staging/rtl8723bs/os_dep/osdep_service.c | 2 +- .../staging/unisys/visornic/visornic_main.c | 5 +++-- drivers/staging/wlan-ng/p80211netdev.c | 2 +- drivers/staging/wlan-ng/prism2sta.c | 4 +++- 23 files changed, 55 insertions(+), 46 deletions(-) -- 2.31.1
