[PATCH] file: modify struct fown_struct to use a struct pid

2006-10-02T14:57:14+00:00

File handles can be requested to send sigio and sigurg to processes.  By
tracking the destination processes using struct pid instead of pid_t we make
the interface safe from all potential pid wrap around problems.

[NET]: Require CAP_NET_ADMIN to create tuntap devices.

2006-06-23T09:07:44+00:00

The tuntap driver allows an admin to create persistent devices and
assign ownership of them to individual users. Unfortunately, relaxing
the permissions on the /dev/net/tun device node so that they can
actually use those devices will _also_ allow those users to create
arbitrary new devices of their own. This patch corrects that, and
adjusts the recommended permissions for the device node accordingly.

[TUNTAP]: Allow setting the linktype of the tap device from userspace

2005-09-02T00:40:05+00:00

Currently tun/tap only supports the EN10MB ARP type.  For use with
wireless and other networking types it should be possible to set the
ARP type via an ioctl.

Patch v2: Included check that the tap interface is down before changing the
link type out from underneath it

[NET]: Transform skb_queue_len() binary tests into skb_queue_empty()

2005-07-08T21:57:23+00:00

This is part of the grand scheme to eliminate the qlen
member of skb_queue_head, and subsequently remove the
'list' member of sk_buff.

Most users of skb_queue_len() want to know if the queue is
empty or not, and that's trivially done with skb_queue_empty()
which doesn't use the skb_queue_head->qlen member and instead
uses the queue list emptyness as the test.
