This is an enhancement work that began several years ago. I try to catchup with some performance improvement that has been implemented then by Havard. The ring index logic and the TX error path modification are the biggest changes but some cleanup/debugging have been added along the way. The GEM revision will benefit from the Gigabit support. Newer pinctrl infrastructure support is added but it is optional. The series has been tested on several Atmel AT91 SoC with the two MACB/GEM flavors.
Gave the patch series a quick spin on RM9200 as well and the at91_ether driver still works. Not many patches here that touch the shared code though. So FWIW; Tested-by: Joachim Eastwood <redacted> Note: Needed the patch you sent out (net/at91_ether: fix the use of macb structure) to fix the build error on the struct rename. regards Joachim Eastwood
