[DECNET]: Increase number of possible routing tables to 2^32

2006-09-22T21:54:28+00:00

Increase the number of possible routing tables to 2^32 by replacing the
fixed sized array of pointers by a hash table and replacing iterations
over all possible table IDs by hash table walking.

[NET]: Introduce RTA_TABLE/FRA_TABLE attributes

2006-09-22T21:54:25+00:00

Introduce RTA_TABLE route attribute and FRA_TABLE routing rule attribute
to hold 32 bit routing table IDs. Usespace compatibility is provided by
continuing to accept and send the rtm_table field, but because of its
limited size it can only carry the low 8 bits of the table ID. This
implies that if larger IDs are used, _all_ userspace programs using them
need to use RTA_TABLE.

[NET]: Use u32 for routing table IDs

2006-09-22T21:54:24+00:00

Use u32 for routing table IDs in net/ipv4 and net/decnet in preparation of
support for a larger number of routing tables. net/ipv6 already uses u32
everywhere and needs no further changes. No functional changes are made by
this patch.

[DECnet]: Endian annotation and fixes for DECnet.

2006-03-21T06:42:39+00:00

The typedef for dn_address has been removed in favour of using __le16
or __u16 directly as appropriate. All the DECnet header files are
updated accordingly.

The byte ordering of dn_eth2dn() and dn_dn2eth() are both changed
since just about all their callers wanted network order rather than
host order, so the conversion is now done in the functions themselves.

Several missed endianess conversions have been picked up during the
conversion process. The nh_gw field in struct dn_fib_info has been
changed from a 32 bit field to 16 bits as it ought to be.

One or two cases of using htons rather than dn_htons in the routing
code have been found and fixed.

There are still a few warnings to fix, but this patch deals with the
important cases.

[NET]: use __read_mostly on kmem_cache_t , DEFINE_SNMP_STAT pointers

2005-08-29T23:11:18+00:00

This patch puts mostly read only data in the right section
(read_mostly), to help sharing of these data between CPUS without
memory ping pongs.

On one of my production machine, tcp_statistics was sitting in a
heavily modified cache line, so *every* SNMP update had to force a
reload.
