This is really awkward and against what we do in any other driver. Lots of PCI ethernet drivers use the MII code but have non-MII variants, and I'd expect usb code to do the same. If you really need to squeeze the last bytes out of usbnet for some embedded thing add a CONFIG_USB_NET_MII opention and explain in the help text which devices require it. Otherwise a normal user has no way to find out why his mii-requiring usb device randomly stopped working. > > Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > --- > drivers/usb/net/usbnet.c | 18 ++++++++++++++++++ > 1 file changed, 18 insertions(+) > > --- linux-2619-rc3-pv.orig/drivers/usb/net/usbnet.c > +++ linux-2619-rc3-pv/drivers/usb/net/usbnet.c > @@ -47,6 +47,12 @@ > > #define DRIVER_VERSION "22-Aug-2005" > > +#if defined(CONFIG_MII) || defined(CONFIG_MII_MODULE) > +#define HAVE_MII 1 > +#else > +#define HAVE_MII 0 > +#endif > + > > /*-------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ > > @@ -676,7 +682,10 @@ int usbnet_get_settings (struct net_devi > if (!dev->mii.mdio_read) > return -EOPNOTSUPP; > > +#if HAVE_MII > return mii_ethtool_gset(&dev->mii, cmd); > +#endif > + return -EOPNOTSUPP; > } > EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(usbnet_get_settings); > > @@ -688,7 +697,11 @@ int usbnet_set_settings (struct net_devi > if (!dev->mii.mdio_write) > return -EOPNOTSUPP; > > +#if HAVE_MII > retval = mii_ethtool_sset(&dev->mii, cmd); > +#else > + retval = -EOPNOTSUPP; > +#endif > > /* link speed/duplex might have changed */ > if (dev->driver_info->link_reset) > @@ -721,9 +734,11 @@ u32 usbnet_get_link (struct net_device * > if (dev->driver_info->check_connect) > return dev->driver_info->check_connect (dev) == 0; > > +#if HAVE_MII > /* if the device has mii operations, use those */ > if (dev->mii.mdio_read) > return mii_link_ok(&dev->mii); > +#endif > > /* Otherwise, say we're up (to avoid breaking scripts) */ > return 1; > @@ -753,7 +768,10 @@ int usbnet_nway_reset(struct net_device > if (!dev->mii.mdio_write) > return -EOPNOTSUPP; > > +#if HAVE_MII > return mii_nway_restart(&dev->mii); > +#endif > + return -EOPNOTSUPP; > } > EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(usbnet_nway_reset); > > - > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in > the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html > Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ ---end quoted text--- - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
