[ovs-dev] [gmane.linux.network] [PATCHv3 1/2] net: Enable 64-bit net device statistics on 32-bit architectures

Upstream Linux is moving toward enabling 64-bit device statistics
even on 32-bit architectures.  Here's the first patch, which
David Miller has already applied to next-next (which will be
merged into the next upstream Linux).

Subject: [PATCHv3 1/2] net: Enable 64-bit net device statistics on 32-bit
 architectures
Message-ID: <1276017594.2185.11.camel at achroite.uk.solarflarecom.com>
Cc: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger at vyatta.com>,
	Arnd Bergmann <arnd at arndb.de>, netdev at vger.kernel.org,
	linux-net-drivers at solarflare.com
To: David Miller <davem at davemloft.net>

Use struct rtnl_link_stats64 as the statistics structure.

On 32-bit architectures, insert 32 bits of padding after/before each
field of struct net_device_stats to make its layout compatible with
struct rtnl_link_stats64.  Add an anonymous union in net_device; move
stats into the union and add struct rtnl_link_stats64 stats64.

Add net_device_ops::ndo_get_stats64, implementations of which will
return a pointer to struct rtnl_link_stats64.  Drivers that implement
this operation must not update the structure asynchronously.

Change dev_get_stats() to call ndo_get_stats64 if available, and to
return a pointer to struct rtnl_link_stats64.  Change callers of
dev_get_stats() accordingly.

Changes from v2:
- Keep type of net_device_stats fields as unsigned long rather than
  making it explicitly u32 or u64
- Update bonding driver, which calls dev_get_stats() and must now
  implement net_device_ops::ndo_get_stats64

Changes from v1:
- Remove accessor macros

Compile-tested allmodconfig on i386; this version should introduce no
new warnings.

Tested that 64-bit statistics work on i386 with bonding and sfc drivers
(using the following patch).

Ben.
