netns: Use net_eq() to compare net-namespaces for optimization.

2008-07-20T05:34:43+00:00

Without CONFIG_NET_NS, namespace is always &init_net.
Compiler will be able to omit namespace comparisons with this patch.

[NET] NETNS: Omit net_device->nd_net without CONFIG_NET_NS.

2008-03-25T19:39:53+00:00

Introduce per-net_device inlines: dev_net(), dev_net_set().
Without CONFIG_NET_NS, no namespace other than &init_net exists.
Let's explicitly define them to help compiler optimizations.

[ATALK/DECNET]: Use seq_open_private in appletalk and decnet.

2008-02-29T19:38:24+00:00

These two also perform manual seq_open_private, so patch them both at
once. But unlike ATM code, these already use the seq_release_private,
so I splitted this patch from the previous one.

[NET]: Convert init_timer into setup_timer

2008-01-28T22:53:35+00:00

Many-many code in the kernel initialized the timer->function
and  timer->data together with calling init_timer(timer). There
is already a helper for this. Use it for networking code.

The patch is HUGE, but makes the code 130 lines shorter
(98 insertions(+), 228 deletions(-)).

[NET]: sparse warning fixes

2007-10-10T23:54:48+00:00

Fix a bunch of sparse warnings. Mostly about 0 used as
NULL pointer, and shadowed variable declarations.
One notable case was that hash size should have been unsigned.

[NET]: Introduce and use print_mac() and DECLARE_MAC_BUF()

This is nicer than the MAC_FMT stuff.

[NET]: Make device event notification network namespace safe

2007-10-10T23:49:09+00:00

Every user of the network device notifiers is either a protocol
stack or a pseudo device.  If a protocol stack that does not have
support for multiple network namespaces receives an event for a
device that is not in the initial network namespace it quite possibly
can get confused and do the wrong thing.

To avoid problems until all of the protocol stacks are converted
this patch modifies all netdev event handlers to ignore events on
devices that are not in the initial network namespace.

As the rest of the code is made network namespace aware these
checks can be removed.

[NET]: Make packet reception network namespace safe

2007-10-10T23:49:08+00:00

This patch modifies every packet receive function
registered with dev_add_pack() to drop packets if they
are not from the initial network namespace.

This should ensure that the various network stacks do
not receive packets in a anything but the initial network
namespace until the code has been converted and is ready
for them.

[ATALK]: In notifier handlers convert the void pointer to a netdevice

2007-10-10T23:49:02+00:00

This slightly improves code safety and clarity.

Later network namespace patches touch this code so this is a
preliminary cleanup.
