Have atalk_route_packet() return NET_RX_SUCCESS not NET_XMIT_SUCCESS

2009-09-15T00:02:47+00:00

Have atalk_route_packet() return NET_RX_SUCCESS not NET_XMIT_SUCCESS

atalk_route_packet() returns NET_RX_DROP if it's call to
aarp_send_ddp() returns NET_XMIT_DROP. If aarp_send_ddp() returns
anything else atalk_route_packet() should return NET_RX_SUCCESS, not
NET_XMIT_SUCCESS.

Use correct NET_RX_* returns for atalk_rcv()

2009-08-13T03:44:50+00:00

In all rx'd SKB cases, atalk_rcv() either eventually jumps to or falls through
    to the label out:, which  returns numeric 0. Numeric 0 corresponds to
    NET_RX_SUCCESS, which is incorrect in failed SKB cases.

    This patch makes atalk_rcv() provide the correct returns by:

    o  explicitly returning NET_RX_SUCCESS in the two success cases
    o  having the out: label return NET_RX_DROP, instead of numeric 0
    o  making the failed SKB labels and processing more consistent with other
       _rcv() routines in the kernel, simplifying validation and removing a
       backwards goto

headers: smp_lock.h redux

2009-07-12T19:22:34+00:00

* Remove smp_lock.h from files which don't need it (including some headers!)
* Add smp_lock.h to files which do need it
* Make smp_lock.h include conditional in hardirq.h
  It's needed only for one kernel_locked() usage which is under CONFIG_PREEMPT

  This will make hardirq.h inclusion cheaper for every PREEMPT=n config
  (which includes allmodconfig/allyesconfig, BTW)

net: correct off-by-one write allocations reports

2009-06-18T07:29:12+00:00

commit 2b85a34e911bf483c27cfdd124aeb1605145dc80
(net: No more expensive sock_hold()/sock_put() on each tx)
changed initial sk_wmem_alloc value.

We need to take into account this offset when reporting
sk_wmem_alloc to user, in PROC_FS files or various
ioctls (SIOCOUTQ/TIOCOUTQ)

net: sk_wmem_alloc has initial value of one, not zero

2009-06-17T11:31:25+00:00

commit 2b85a34e911bf483c27cfdd124aeb1605145dc80
(net: No more expensive sock_hold()/sock_put() on each tx)
changed initial sk_wmem_alloc value.

Some protocols check sk_wmem_alloc value to determine if a timer
must delay socket deallocation. We must take care of the sk_wmem_alloc
value being one instead of zero when no write allocations are pending.

Reported by Ingo Molnar, and full diagnostic from David Miller.

This patch introduces three helpers to get read/write allocations
and a followup patch will use these helpers to report correct
write allocations to user.
