      net: phy: bcm-phy-lib: Fix module license issue · b89eb1fc
      Arun Parameswaran authored
      The 'bcm-phy-lib.c', added as a part of the commit
      "net: phy: Add Broadcom phy library for common interfaces"
      was missing the module license. This was causing an issue
      when the library is built as a module; "module license
      'unspecified' taints kernel".
      
      This patch fixes the issue by adding the module license,
      author and description to the bcm-phy-lib.c file.
      
      Fixes: a1cba561 ("net: phy: Add Broadcom phy library for
      common interfaces")

      ipconfig: send Client-identifier in DHCP requests · 26fb342c
      Li RongQing authored
      A dhcp server may provide parameters to a client from a pool of IP
      addresses and using a shared rootfs, or provide a specific set of
      parameters for a specific client, usually using the MAC address to
      identify each client individually. The dhcp protocol also specifies
      a client-id field which can be used to determine the correct
      parameters to supply when no MAC address is available. There is
      currently no way to tell the kernel to supply a specific client-id,
      only the userspace dhcp clients support this feature, but this can
      not be used when the network is needed before userspace is available
      such as when the root filesystem is on NFS.
      
      This patch is to be able to do something like "ip=dhcp,client_id_type,
      client_id_value", as a kernel parameter to enable the kernel to
      identify itself to the server.
