From cf8f985dfcea8bc0e0728645f643d6c8f71792b7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: hauke Date: Sat, 16 Feb 2013 20:28:24 +0000 Subject: brcm47xx: add initial support for kernel 3.8 This contains the following new bigger changes: * new partition parser which still could lake some features or have bugs * new nand flash driver * using physmap-flash flash driver for parallel flash * some changes to the serial flash driver With these changes OpenWrt starts using more of the mainline flash drivers. git-svn-id: svn://svn.openwrt.org/openwrt/trunk@35632 3c298f89-4303-0410-b956-a3cf2f4a3e73 --- .../brcm47xx/patches-3.8/720-eth-backport.patch | 94 ++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 94 insertions(+) create mode 100644 target/linux/brcm47xx/patches-3.8/720-eth-backport.patch (limited to 'target/linux/brcm47xx/patches-3.8/720-eth-backport.patch') diff --git a/target/linux/brcm47xx/patches-3.8/720-eth-backport.patch b/target/linux/brcm47xx/patches-3.8/720-eth-backport.patch new file mode 100644 index 000000000..98da18a3b --- /dev/null +++ b/target/linux/brcm47xx/patches-3.8/720-eth-backport.patch @@ -0,0 +1,94 @@ +commit fa0879e37b59e8e3f130a30a9e6fa515717c5bdd +Author: Stefan Hajnoczi +Date: Mon Jan 21 01:17:22 2013 +0000 + + net: split eth_mac_addr for better error handling + + When we set mac address, software mac address in system and hardware mac + address all need to be updated.
