From d2ed273d30c5ffd14f6b5ec7ecc751d960f832fc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michał Mirosław Date: Tue, 29 Jan 2013 15:14:16 +0000 Subject: net: disallow drivers with buggy VLAN accel to register_netdevice() MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Instead of jumping aroung bugs that are easily fixed just don't let them in: affected drivers should be either fixed or have NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_FILTER removed from advertised features. Quick grep in drivers/net shows two drivers that have NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_FILTER but not ndo_vlan_rx_add/kill_vid(), but those are false-positives (features are commented out). OTOH two drivers have ndo_vlan_rx_add/kill_vid() implemented but don't advertise NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_FILTER. Those are: +ethernet/cisco/enic/enic_main.c +ethernet/qlogic/qlcnic/qlcnic_main.c Signed-off-by: Michał Mirosław Signed-off-by: David S.
