Sometimes it is useful to be able to change the MAC address of the
interface for netback devices. For example, when using ebtables it may
be useful to be able to distinguish traffic from different interfaces
without depending on the interface name.

Paul Gortmaker says:

====================
The Ethernet-HowTo was maintained for roughly 10 years, from 1993 to 2003.
Fortunately sane hardware probing and auto detection (via PCI and ISA/PnP)
largely made the document a relic of the past, hence it being abandoned
a decade ago.

However, there is one last useful thing that we can extract from the
effort made in maintaining that document.  We can use it to guide us
with respect to what rare, experimental and/or super ancient 10Mbit
ISA drivers don't make sense to maintain in-tree anymore.

Nobody will argue that ISA is obsolete.  Availability went away at about
the time Pentium3 motherboards moved from 500MHz Slot1/SECC processors
to the green 500MHz Socket 370 Pentium3 chips, at the turn of the century.

In theory, it is possible that someone could still be running one of these
12+ year old P3 machines and want 3.9+ bleeding edge kernels (but unlikely).
In light of the above (remote) possibility, we can defer the removal of some
ISA network drivers that were highly popular and well tested.  Typically
that means the stuff more from the mid to late '90s, some with ISA PnP
support, like the 3c509, the wd/SMC 8390 based stuff, PCnet/lance etc.

But a lot of other drivers, typically from the early 1990s were for rare
hardware, and experimental (to the point of requiring a cron job that would
do a test ping, and then ifconfig down/up and/or a rmmod/insmod!).  And
some of these drivers (znet, and lp486e to name two) are physically tied
to platforms with on motherboard ethernet -- of 486 machines that date
from the early 1990s and can only have single digit amounts of memory.

What I'd like to achieve here with this series, is to get rid of those old
drivers that are no longer being used.  In an earlier discussion where
I'd proposed deleting a single driver, Alan suggested we instead dump
all the historical stuff in one go, to make it "...immediately obvious
where the break point is..."[1] and that it was "perfectly reasonable it
(and a pile of other ISA cards) ought to be shown the door"[2].  So that
is the goal here - make a clear line in the sand where the really ancient
stuff finally gets kicked to the curb.

Two old parallel port drivers are considered for removal here as well,
since in early 386/486 ISA machines, the parallel port was typically found
with the UARTS on the multi-I/O ISA controller card.  These drivers also date
from the early 1990's; parallel ports are no longer found on modern boards,
and their performance was not even capable of 10% of 10Mbit bandwidth.

Allow me a preemptive justification against the inevitable comments from
well meaning bystanders who suggest "why not just leave all this alone?".
Dead drivers cost us all if they are left in tree.  If you think that
is false, then please first consider:

-every time you type "git status", you are checking to see if modifications
 have been made by you to all that dead code.

-every time you type "git grep <regex>" you are searching through files
 which contain that dead code that simply does not interest you.

-every time you build a "allyesconfig" and an "allmodconfig" (don't tell
 me you skip this step before submitting your changes to a maintainer),
 you waste CPU cycles building this dead code.

-every time there is a tree wide API change, or cleanup, or file relocation,
 we pay the cost of updating dead code, or moving dead code.

-daily regression tests (take linux-next as the most transparent
 example) spend time building (and possibly running) this dead code.

-hard working people who regularly run auditing tools looking for lurking
 bugs (sparse/coverity/smatch/coccinelle) are wasting time checking for,
 and fixing bugs in this dead code.

This last one is key.  Please take a look at the git history for the
files that are proposed for removal here.  Look at the git history for
any one of them ("git whatchanged --follow drivers/net/.../driver.c")
Mentally sort the changes into two bins -- (1) the robotic tree-wide
changes, and (2) the "look I found a real run-time bug while using this"
category.  You will see that category #2 is essentially empty.

Further to that, realize that drivers don't simply disappear.  We are
not operating in the binary-only distribution space like other OS.  All
these drivers remain in the git history forever.  If a person is an
enthusiast for extreme legacy hardware, they are probably already
customizing their kernel source and building it themselves to support
such systems.  Also keep in mind that they could still build the 3.8
kernel exactly as-is, and run it (or a 3.8.x stable variant of it) for
several more years if they were really determined to cling to these old
experimental ISA drivers for some reason.

In summary, I hope that folks can be pragmatic about this, and not
get swept up in nostalgia.  Ask yourself whether it is realistic to
expect a person would have a genuine use case where they would
need to build a 3.9+ modern kernel and install it on some legacy hardware
that has no option but to absolutely _require_ one of the drivers
that are deleted here.

The following series was created with --irreversible-delete for
ease of review (it skips showing the content of files that are
deleted); however the complete patches can be pulled as per below.

Since we have removed NCE (Neighbour Cache Entry) reference from

(if running) and its owner table, in usual cases.  As a result,
neigh_periodic_work() purges NCEs over and over again even for
gateways.

It does not make sense to purge entries, if number of them is
very small, so keep them.  The minimum number of entries to keep

The last update to the Ethernet HowTo (over 10 years ago) listed this:

 ------------------------
   SEEQ 8005

   Status: Obsolete, Driver Name: seeq8005

   There is little information about the card included in the driver,
   and hence little information to be put here. If you have a question,
   you are probably best trying to e-mail the driver author as listed
   in the source.

   It was marked obsolete as of the 2.4 series kernels.
 ------------------------

If it was obsolete over a decade ago, the situation can not have
improved with the passage of time, so let us act on that.  Even with
today's improved search engines, I was unable to locate any real
meaningful information on the ISA implementation of this rare chip.

There are ARM and SGI variants of the driver in tree, but they do
not depend on the original x86 driver source or header file.  We
leave those non-x86 drivers to be deleted by the arch maintainers
when they decide to expire those legacy platforms as a whole.

This is another one that makes sense to target for obsolescence, since
it (a)appeared pre-1995, and (b)was rather rare, and (c)did not
really have any statistically significant active linux user base.

Removing this ISA 10Mbit driver support is unlikely to be even noticed
by the user base of 3.9+ linux kernels, especially when the documentation
clearly indicates the vintage with this text:

	 "...designed to  work with all kernels > 1.1.33"

These are old ISA 10Mbit cards from the 1st 1/2 of the 1990s and

This is an area I know all too well, after being author of several 8390
drivers, and maintainer of all 8390 drivers during a large part of their
active lifecycle.

To that end, I can say this with a reasonable degree of confidence.
The drivers deleted here represent the earliest (as in early 1990)
hardware and/or rare hardware.  The remaining hardware not deleted
here is the more modern/sane of the lot, with ISA-PnP and jumperless
"soft configuration" like the wd and smc cards had.

The original ne2000 driver (ne.c) gets a pass at this time since
AT/LANTIC based cards that could be both ne2000 or wd-like (with
shared memory) and with jumperless configuration were made in the
mid to late 1990's, and performed reasonably well for their era.

These cards were only available in 8bit format, and in addition
they only had AUI and BNC(10-Base2) interfaces (i.e. no RJ-45).

In fact, they are so rare, that an internet search on these old
cards almost comes up empty, unless the "Micom interlan" name
is used.

This puts them in the equivalent domain as the 3c501, so there
should be no strong opposition to the driver removal, as nobody
is seriously using 3.9+ with 8 bit ISA hardware.

In doing so, the whole "ethernet/racal" category becomes empty,
so we clean up the Makefile/Kconfig and subdir appropriately.

This driver supported early to mid 1990's Zenith laptops, of the
2" thick variety.  The driver was already dead 10+ years ago, but
we see this in the source:

 ----------------
 /* 10/2002

 [...]

   Tested on a vintage Zenith Z-Note 433Lnp+. Probably broken on
   anything else. Testers (and detailed bug reports) are welcome :-).
 ----------------

To clarify, a 433 translates into a 486 at 33MHz, and a system with
a default of 4MB RAM.  I can't fault the noble effort to keep things
working a decade ago, but at this point in time, there is no valid
justification to continue carrying this driver along.

Note that there is no associated Space.c cleanup here since this
driver was using module_init to hook itself in.

These old drivers should not be confused with the very common PCI
cards that are supported by e100.c -- these older 10Mbit ISA only
drivers were not as commonly used as some of the other ISA drivers,
simply due to hardware availability and pricing.

Given the rarity of the hardware, and the subsequent less extensive
use of the drivers, it makes sense to obsolete them at this point
in time, along with other rare/experimental ISA drivers.

For those of us who were around in the early to mid 1990's, we
will remember that the i825xx ethernet support was not something
that was considered sufficiently vetted for 24/7 use.

Folks might be inclined to use *functional* ISA hardware on some
near expired P3 ISA machines for dedicated workhorse applications,
but the odds of using (and relying on) one of these old/experimental
drivers is essentially nil.  So lets remove them.

The parallel port is largely replaced by USB, and even in the
day where these drivers were current, the documented speed was
less than 100kB/s.  Let us not pretend that anyone cares about
these drivers anymore, or worse - pretend that anyone is using
them on a modern kernel.

As a side bonus, this is the end of legacy parallel port ethernet,
so we get to drop the whole chunk relating to that in the legacy
Space.c file containing the non-PCI unified probe dispatch.

It was amusing that linux was able to make use of this 1980's
technology on machines long past its intended lifespan, but
it probably should go now.

To set some context, the 3c501 was designed in the 1980's to be
used on 8088 PC-XT 8bit ISA machines.  It was built using a large
number of discrete TTL components and truly looks like a relic
of the ancient past before large scale integration was common.

But from a functional point of view, the real issue, as stated
in the (also obsolete) Ethernet-HowTo, is that "...the 3c501 can
only do one thing at a time -- while you are removing one packet
from the single-packet buffer it cannot receive another packet,
nor can it receive a packet while loading a transmit packet."

You know things are not good when the Kconfig help text suggests
you make a cron job doing a ping every minute.

Hardware that old and crippled is simply not going to be used by
anyone in a time where 10 year old 100Mbit PCI cards (that are
still functional) are largely give-away items.

The Apricot was a 486 PC with 4MB RAM, and an on-board ethernet
via an intel i82596 hard-wired to i/o 0x300.

Those who were using linux in the 1990's will recall that the
i82596 driver was not one of the more stable or widely used
drivers of its day.  Combine that with the extremely limited
resources of the platform, and it is truly time to expire the
support for this thing.

There are some old m68k targets who were also using this chip,
so rather than poll the m68k user base, we simply cut out the
x86/Apricot support here in this commit.

The slave MII bus registered by the DSA code is using the parent MII bus
as part of its name (ds->master_mii_bus_id), in case the parent MII bus
name is already 16 characters long (such as d0072004.mdio-mi) we will
get the following WARN_ON in dsa_switch_setup() when calling
mdiobus_register():

This is a genuine warning, because the DSA slave MII bus will also be
named d0072004.mdio-mi, and since MII_BUS_ID_SIZE is 17 characters long
(with null-terminator) the following will truncate the slave MII bus id:

snprintf(ds->slave_mii_bus->id, MII_BUS_ID_SIZE, "%s-%d:%.2x",
