Subject: [PATCH net-next 9/9] netconsole: move netpoll_wait_carrier() as netcons_wait_carrier()
Date: Fri, 24 Jul 2026 08:04:17 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260724-netconsole_move_more_final-v1-9-a5f7691db81c@debian.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260724-netconsole_move_more_final-v1-0-a5f7691db81c@debian.org>

netpoll_wait_carrier() waits for the egress device carrier during
netconsole setup. Its only caller, netcons_netpoll_setup(), already
lives in netconsole. Move the function into drivers/net/netconsole.c,
drop EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() and remove the prototype from <linux/netpoll.h>.

Rename it to netcons_wait_carrier() for the netcons_ prefix. It now reads
the timeout through netpoll_get_carrier_timeout(), since carrier_timeout
stays in netpoll to keep the netpoll.carrier_timeout parameter.
