eth_stp_addr is not in the same form as the other global ether_<foo>_addr
addresses like ether_broadcast_addr.

Convert it treewide.

Miscellanea:

o Add comment to the ether_stp_addr define to show it's for spanning-tree

Definitely agree with that. apologies for not noticing.

It's emacs editing nonsense like a superfluous :wq for vim

Joe this was part of a larger series.

Please repost the entire series when you fix a patch contained
in that series, not just the patch that is changing.

Thank you.

Hi Joe,

Remove the local consts and use the new globals.

This one is already upstream:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pablo/nf-next.git/commit/?id=9124a20d8794663a396b5d6f91f66903848a042b

I can see you're using is_broadcast_ether_addr(e->destmsk) in this new
version, we would need an incremental version.

Thanks.

No worries. I did it against next-20180329
and that other commit wasn't there.

[Felix Fietkau]

There are many local static and non-static arrays that are used for
Ethernet broadcast address output or comparison.
Centralize the array into a single separate file and remove the local
arrays.

I suspect that for many targets and configurations, the local arrays
might actually be smaller than exporting a global. You have to factor in
not just the .text size, but the fact that referencing an exported
symbol needs a .reloc entry as well, which also eats up some space (at
least when the code is being built as module).

In my opinion, your series probably causes more bloat in common
configurations instead of reducing it.

You're also touching several places that could easily use
eth_broadcast_addr and eth_zero_addr. I think making those changes would
be more productive than what you did in this series.

I tried x86-64 allnoconfig and defconfig.
Those both did not increase vmlinux size.

The defconfig actually got smaller, but that might have been
some object alignment oddity.

Thanks, the modules I built got smaller.

Doubtful. AFAIK: possible unaligned addresses.

Please post some numbers to show this. By the way, on other
architectures the numbers will probably be different, especially on
ARM/MIPS.

Those two are just memset calls, alignment does not matter.
