Subject: [patch 0/5] d80211.h bitfield removal
Date: Fri, 13 Oct 2006 12:20:45 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20061013192045.GA18694@devicescape.com> (raw)
Continue d80211 bitfield removal. In general, compilers have
difficulty generating efficient code for bitfields. This patchset
removes all bitfields from include/net/d80211.h (except for the xr and
Super A/G fields which are completely removed by previous patches).
I converted the 1 bit bitfields into a bit in a u32 flags structure
member. Larger bitfields I converted into their u8/u16/whatever
equivalent.
This should be a no-op from a functionality standpoint.
-David
