2015-06-23drivers/net: remove all references to obsolete Ethernet-HOWTOPaul Gortmaker
This howto made sense in the 1990s when users had to manually configure ISA cards with jumpers or vendor utilities, but with the implementation of PCI it became increasingly less and less relevant, to the point where it has been well over a decade since I last updated it. And there is no value in anyone else taking over updating it either. However the references to it continue to spread as boiler plate text from one Kconfig file into the next. We are not doing end users any favours by pointing them at this old document, so lets kill it with fire, once and for all, to hopefully stop any further spread. No code is changed in this commit, just Kconfig help text. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2013-06-19net: Move MII out from under NET_CORE and hide itBen Hutchings
All drivers that select MII also need to select NET_CORE because MII depends on it. This is a bit ridiculous because NET_CORE is just a menu option that doesn't enable any code by itself. There is also no need for it to be a visible option, since its users all select it.

2013-06-17alx: add a simple AR816x/AR817x device driverJohannes Berg
This is a very simple driver, based on the original vendor driver that Qualcomm/Atheros published/submitted previously, but reworked to make the code saner. However, it also lost a number of features (TSO/GSO, VLAN acceleration and multi- queue support) in the process, as well as debugging support features I didn't have any use for. The only thing I left is checksum offload. More features can obviously be added, but this seemed like a good start for having a driver in mainline at all. Johannes Stezenbach has verified that the driver works on AR8161, I have a AR8171 myself. The E2200 device ID I found on github in somebody's repository.

2013-01-11drivers/net/ethernet/atheros: remove depends on CONFIG_EXPERIMENTALKees Cook
The CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL config item has not carried much meaning for a while now and is almost always enabled by default. As agreed during the Linux kernel summit, remove it from any "depends on" lines in Kconfigs.

2011-09-15MII: fix Kconfig dependencies for MIIJeff Kirsher
MII Kconfig option is apart of the core networking drivers and by default NET_CORE is enabled so drivers selecting MII will have MII enabled as well. It was found using the randconfig option during testing, MII would be selected but NET_CORE could be disabled. This caused a dependency error. Resolved the dependency by selecting NET_CORE when MII is selected.

2011-08-27drivers/net/ethernet/*: Enabled vendor Kconfig optionsJeff Kirsher
Based on finds for Stephen Rothwell, where current defconfig's enable a ethernet driver and it is not compiled due to the newly added NET_VENDOR_* component of Kconfig. This patch enables all the "new" Kconfig options so that current defconfig's will continue to compile the expected drivers. In addition, by enabling all the new Kconfig options does not add any un-expected options. CC: Stephen Rothwll <sfc@canb.auug.org.au> Signed-off-by: Jeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com>
2011-08-11atl*: Move the Atheros driversJeff Kirsher
