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.

The forwarding table binary interface (my bad choice), only exposes the port number of the first 8 bits. The bridge code was limited to 256 ports at the time, but now the kernel supports up 1024 ports, so the upper bits are lost when doing: brctl showmacs The fix is to squeeze the extra bits into small hole left in data structure, to maintain binary compatiablity.

In br_fdb_cleanup() next_timer and this_timer are in jiffies, so they should be compared using the time_after() macro. Signed-off-by: Fabio Checconi <fabio@gandalf.sssup.it> Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <stephen.hemminger@vyatta.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This patch fixes some packet leakage in bridge. The bridging code was allowing forward table entries to be generated even if a device was being blocked. The fix is to not add forwarding database entries unless the port is active. The bug arose as part of the conversion to processing STP frames through normal receive path (in 2.6.17).

Slab destructors were no longer supported after Christoph's c59def9f222d44bb7e2f0a559f2906191a0862d7 change. They've been BUGs for both slab and slub, and slob never supported them either. This rips out support for the dtor pointer from kmem_cache_create() completely and fixes up every single callsite in the kernel (there were about 224, not including the slab allocator definitions themselves, or the documentation references).

The bridge cleanup timer is fired 10 times a second for timers that are at least 15 seconds ahead in time and that are not critical to be cleaned asap. This patch calculates the next time to run the timer as the minimum of all timers or a minimum based on the current state.
