From f84bb1eac0275283ccd76455e20f926e186ea8c8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Phil Sutter Date: Thu, 27 Aug 2015 21:21:36 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] net: fix IFF_NO_QUEUE for drivers using alloc_netdev Printing a warning in alloc_netdev_mqs() if tx_queue_len is zero and IFF_NO_QUEUE not set is not appropriate since drivers may use one of the alloc_netdev* macros instead of alloc_etherdev*, thereby not intentionally leaving tx_queue_len uninitialized. Instead check here if tx_queue_len is zero and set IFF_NO_QUEUE, so the value of tx_queue_len can be ignored in net/sched_generic.c. Fixes: 906470c ("net: warn if drivers set tx_queue_len = 0") Signed-off-by: Phil Sutter Signed-off-by: David S.
