There are many local static and non-static arrays that are used for Ethernet broadcast address output or comparison. Centralize the array into a single separate file and remove the local arrays. Joe Perches (12): ethernet: Add generic ether_<foo>_addr addresses treewide/net: Rename eth_stp_addr to ether_stp_addr net: mac80211: Use global ether_broadcast_addr bridge: netfilter: Use the new global ether_<foo>_addr arrays net: atm: Use ether_broadcast_addr wireless: Convert simple uses of a static const Ethernet broadcast address brcmfmac: Convert ALLFFMAC to ether_broadcast_addr iwlegacy: Remove EXPORT_SYMBOL(il_bcast_addr) and use ether_broadcast_addr iwlwifi: Remove local iwl_bcast_addr and use ether_broadcast_addr mvpp2: Use ether_broadcast_addr instead of a local array qlogic: Convert local bcast_addr to global ether_broadcast_addr ethernet: Use ether_zero_addr instead of local statics drivers/net/dsa/lan9303-core.c | 4 ++-- drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/b44.c | 5 ++--- drivers/net/ethernet/freescale/gianfar.c | 3 +-- drivers/net/ethernet/marvell/mvpp2.c | 4 +--- drivers/net/ethernet/qlogic/netxen/netxen_nic_hw.c | 5 +---- drivers/net/ethernet/qlogic/qlcnic/qlcnic_hw.c | 6 ++---- .../net/ethernet/qlogic/qlcnic/qlcnic_sriov_common.c | 6 ++---- drivers/net/wireless/admtek/adm8211.c | 3 +-- drivers/net/wireless/ath/carl9170/mac.c | 4 +--- drivers/net/wireless/broadcom/b43/main.c | 3 +-- .../net/wireless/broadcom/brcm80211/brcmfmac/common.c | 2 -- .../net/wireless/broadcom/brcm80211/brcmfmac/common.h | 2 -- .../wireless/broadcom/brcm80211/brcmfmac/flowring.c | 8 ++++---- drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlegacy/3945-mac.c | 2 +- drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlegacy/4965-mac.c | 2 +- drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlegacy/common.c | 3 --- drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlegacy/common.h | 1 - drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/dvm/dev.h | 1 - drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/dvm/scan.c | 2 +- drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/dvm/sta.c | 4 +--- drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/cfg80211.c | 3 +-- drivers/net/wireless/realtek/rtlwifi/core.c | 5 ++--- drivers/net/wireless/rndis_wlan.c | 6 +----- drivers/net/wireless/ti/wl1251/main.c | 5 +---- drivers/net/wireless/ti/wlcore/main.c | 5 +---- include/linux/etherdevice.h | 13 +++++++++---- net/atm/lec.c | 12 +++++------- net/bridge/br_device.c | 4 ++-- net/bridge/netfilter/ebt_stp.c | 6 ++---- net/ethernet/Makefile | 2 +- net/ethernet/ether_addrs.c | 19 +++++++++++++++++++ net/mac80211/iface.c | 5 +---- net/mac80211/key.c | 6 ++---- net/mac80211/mesh_hwmp.c | 19 ++++++++++--------- net/mac80211/mesh_pathtbl.c | 8 ++++---- 35 files changed, 83 insertions(+), 105 deletions(-) create mode 100644 net/ethernet/ether_addrs.c -- 2.15.0
