[PATCH 5/8] usbnet: smsc95xx: align tx-buffer to word

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The tegra EHCI driver requires alignment of the buffer, so try and
make this better by pushing the buffer start back to an word
aligned address. At the worst this makes memcpy() easier as
it is word aligned, at best it makes sure the usb can directly
map the buffer.

Changes since v1:
- Removed the module parameter
- Reworked the tx code to ensure retry if alignment changed
- Explicitly mention the EHCI in the tegra
- Deal with new simpler tx code
