Subject: ixgbe select_queue broken in 2.6.28
Date: Thu, 1 Jan 2009 22:54:56 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090101225456.68f4fe9d@extreme> (raw)
The ixgbe driver in 2.6.28 modifies select_queue. This is bad
in a couple of ways:
1) select_queue is now in net_device_ops so the driver won't build
unless CONFIG_COMPAT_NET_DEV_OPS is defined
2) it is changing data that is shared and supposed to be immutable.
Looks like a some of the DCB stuff forgot to look at net_device_ops
