net: Rationalise email address: Network Specific Parts

2008-10-14T02:01:08+00:00

Clean up the various different email addresses of mine listed in the code
to a single current and valid address. As Dave says his network merges
for 2.6.28 are now done this seems a good point to send them in where
they won't risk disrupting real changes.

list_for_each_rcu must die: networking

2008-07-25T17:53:27+00:00

All uses of list_for_each_rcu() can be profitably replaced by the
easier-to-use list_for_each_entry_rcu().  This patch makes this change for
networking, in preparation for removing the list_for_each_rcu() API
entirely.

net: Add STP demux layer

2008-07-06T04:25:39+00:00

Add small STP demux layer for demuxing STP PDUs based on MAC address.
This is needed to run both GARP and STP in parallel (or even load the
modules) since both use LLC_SAP_BSPAN.

rcu: split list.h and move rcu-protected lists into rculist.h

2008-05-19T08:01:37+00:00

Move rcu-protected lists from list.h into a new header file rculist.h.

This is done because list are a very used primitive structure all over the
kernel and it's currently impossible to include other header files in this
list.h without creating some circular dependencies.

For example, list.h implements rcu-protected list and uses rcu_dereference()
without including rcupdate.h.  It actually compiles because users of
rcu_dereference() are macros.  Others RCU functions could be used too but
aren't probably because of this.

Therefore this patch creates rculist.h which includes rcupdates without to
many changes/troubles.

[TR]: Use ctl paths to register net/token-ring/ table

2008-01-28T22:56:28+00:00

The same thing for token-ring - use ctl paths and get
rid of external references on the tr_table.

Unfortunately, I couldn't split this patch into cleanup and
use-the-paths parts.

As a lame excuse I can say, that the cleanup is just moving
the tr_table from one file to another - closet to a single
variable, that this ctl table tunes. Since the source  file
becomes empty after the move, I remove it.
