Subject: [PATCH net-next 3/3] net: usb: kaweth: remove eth_addr_t typedef and bcast_addr definition
Date: Sun, 25 Jan 2026 00:34:57 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260125083501.34513-4-enelsonmoore@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260125083501.34513-1-enelsonmoore@gmail.com>
It violates kernel code style guidelines to define typedefs for
non-opaque types. Update kaweth to conform to these guidelines by
expanding the eth_addr_t typedef. Also replace the hardcoded MAC address
length of 6 bytes with ETH_ALEN, and use standard kernel APIs to assign
and compare against the broadcast address.
