[PATCH 1/2] net: wan: slic_ds26522: add SPI device ID table to fix module autoload

If the driver is built as a module, module alias information isn't filled so the module won't be autoloaded. Add a SPI device ID table and use the MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() macro so the information is exported in the module. Before this patch: $ modinfo drivers/net/wan/slic_ds26522.ko | grep alias $

[PATCH] net: wan: slic_ds26522: Allow driver to built if COMPILE_TEST is enabled

The driver only has runtime but no build time dependency with FSL_SOC || ARCH_MXC || ARCH_LAYERSCAPE. So it can be built for testing purposes if the COMPILE_TEST option is enabled. This is useful to have more build coverage and make sure that the driver is not affected by changes that could

[PATCH 03/10] mm: replace get_user_pages_unlocked() write/force parameters with gup_flags

This patch removes the write and force parameters from get_user_pages_unlocked() and replaces them with a gup_flags parameter to make the use of FOLL_FORCE explicit in callers as use of this flag can result in surprising behaviour (and hence bugs) within the mm subsystem. Signed-off-by: Lorenzo

[PATCH 00/10] mm: adjust get_user_pages* functions to explicitly pass FOLL_* flags

This patch series adjusts functions in the get_user_pages* family such that desired FOLL_* flags are passed as an argument rather than implied by flags. The purpose of this change is to make the use of FOLL_FORCE explicit so it is easier to grep for and clearer to callers that this flag is being

Add per protocol offload callbacks for flow_dissect to UDP for IPv4 and IPv6. The callback functions extract the port number information and with the packet addresses (given in an argument with type flow_dissector_key_addrs) it performs a lookup on the UDP socket. If a socket is found and

[PATCH net-next 0/5] udp: Flow dissection for tunnels

Now that we have a means to perform a UDP socket lookup without taking a reference, it is feasible to have flow dissector crack open UDP encapsulated packets. Generally, we would expect that the UDP source port or the flow label in IPv6 would contain enough entropy about the encapsulated flow.
