Subject: [PATCH net-next v3] fec: Remove fec_enet_select_queue()
Date: Mon, 22 Sep 2014 17:55:29 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1411419329-11957-1-git-send-email-festevam@gmail.com> (raw)
From: Fabio Estevam <fabio.estevam@freescale.com>
Sparse complains about fec_enet_select_queue() not being static.
Feedback from David Miller [1] was to remove this function instead of making it
static:
"Please just delete this function.
It's overriding code which does exactly the same thing.
Actually, more precisely, this code is duplicating code in a way that
bypasses many core facilitites of the networking. For example, this
override means that socket based flow steering, XPS, etc. are all
not happening on these devices.
Without ->ndo_select_queue(), the flow dissector does __netdev_pick_tx
which is exactly what you want to happen."
