Sonics Silicon Backplane support (SSB) [M/y/?] (NEW) n
Support for the Sonics Silicon Backplane bus.
You only need to enable this option, if you are
configuring a kernel for an embedded system with
this bus.
It will be auto-selected if needed in other
environments.
The module will be called ssb.

All applied to net-2.6.25. Thanks Pavel.

Hi Vitaly,
With that patch fixed.c now fully emulates MDIO bus, thus no need
to duplicate PHY layer functionality. That, in turn, drastically
simplifies the code, and drops down line count.
As an additional bonus, now there is no need to register MDIO bus
for each PHY, all emulated PHYs placed
This looks very much like the patch for ipv4's devinet.
This is also intended to help us with the net namespaces
and saves the ipv6.ko size by ~320 bytes.
The difference from the first version is just the patch
offsets, that changed due to changes in the patch #2.

Currently this call is (ab)used similar to devinet one - it
registers sysctls for devices and for the "default" confs, while
the "all" sysctls are registered separately. But unlike its
devinet brother, the passed inet6_device is needed.
The fix is to make a __addrconf_sysctl_register(), which re

This looks very much like the patch for neighbors.
The path is also located on the stack and is prepared
inside the function. This time, the call to the registering
function is guarded with the RTNL lock, but I decided
to keep it on the stack not to litter the devinet.c file
with unneeded names an
Currently this call is used to register sysctls for devices
and for the "default" confs. The "all" sysctls are registered
separately.
Besides, the inet_device is passed to this function, but it is
not needed there at all - just the device name and ifindex are
required.
Thanks to Herbert, who no

I've applied 1/3 for both cases so please just resend 2/3 and 3/3.
Thanks,

Due to your simplification you no longer need the second argument
as it can now be derived from the first as is the case for IP
