Subject: [PATCH net-next 2/8] netconsole: move netpoll_send_udp() from netpoll
Date: Fri, 08 May 2026 06:29:16 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260508-netconsole_split-v1-2-0f660e62841f@debian.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260508-netconsole_split-v1-0-0f660e62841f@debian.org>

Move netpoll_send_udp() from net/core/netpoll.c into
drivers/net/netconsole.c as a static helper, drop EXPORT_SYMBOL(),
and remove the prototype from include/linux/netpoll.h.

netconsole was the only in-tree caller of this entry point. Every
other netpoll consumer (bonding, team, vlan, bridge, macvlan, dsa)
already builds its own sk_buff and hands it to netpoll_send_skb(),
so the netpoll send-side interface is now skb-only.

The helpers it depends on (find_skb(), push_ipv6(), push_ipv4(),
push_udp(), push_eth(), netpoll_udp_checksum()) were exposed in
the previous patches and stay in net/core/netpoll.c for now.
Subsequent patches move each of them into netconsole one at a time
and drop the corresponding EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL.

Pull <linux/ip.h>, <linux/ipv6.h> and <linux/udp.h> into netconsole.c
so the moved code can name the header structures.
