net: '&' redux

2008-11-04T02:21:05+00:00

I want to compile out proc_* and sysctl_* handlers totally and
stub them to NULL depending on config options, however usage of &
will prevent this, since taking adress of NULL pointer will break
compilation.

So, drop & in front of every ->proc_handler and every ->strategy
handler, it was never needed in fact.

[IrDA]: LMP discovery timer not started by default

2008-01-28T23:10:54+00:00

By default, LMP sets up a 3 seconds timer for discovery.
We don't need it until discovery is set to 1.

[NET]: Simple ctl_table to ctl_path conversions.

2008-01-28T23:01:07+00:00

This patch includes many places, that only required
replacing the ctl_table-s with appropriate ctl_paths
and call register_sysctl_paths().

Nothing special was done with them.

Convert files to UTF-8 and some cleanups

2007-10-19T21:21:04+00:00

* Convert files to UTF-8.

  * Also correct some people's names
    (one example is Eißfeldt, which was found in a source file.
    Given that the author used an ß at all in a source file
    indicates that the real name has in fact a 'ß' and not an 'ss',
    which is commonly used as a substitute for 'ß' when limited to
    7bit.)

  * Correct town names (Goettingen -> Göttingen)

  * Update Eberhard Mönkeberg's address (http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/1/8/313)

sysctl: properly register the irda binary sysctl numbers

2007-10-18T21:37:23+00:00

Grumble.  These numbers should have been in sysctl.h from the beginning if we
ever expected anyone to use them.  Oh well put them there now so we can find
them and make maintenance easier.

[IrDA]: Fix IrDA build failure

2007-07-18T09:16:30+00:00

When having built-in IrDA, we hit the following error:

`irda_sysctl_unregister' referenced in section `.init.text' of
net/built-in.o: defined in discarded section `.exit.text' of
net/built-in.o

make[1]: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1
make: *** [_all] Error 2

This is due to the irda_init fix recently added, where we call __exit
routines from an __init one. It is a build failure that I didn't catch
because it doesn't show up when building IrDA as a module. My apologies
for that.
The following patch fixes that failure and is against your net-2.6
tree. I hope it can make it to the merge window, and stable@kernel.org
is CCed on this mail.

[PATCH] sysctl: remove insert_at_head from register_sysctl

2007-02-14T16:09:59+00:00

The semantic effect of insert_at_head is that it would allow new registered
sysctl entries to override existing sysctl entries of the same name.  Which is
pain for caching and the proc interface never implemented.

I have done an audit and discovered that none of the current users of
register_sysctl care as (excpet for directories) they do not register
duplicate sysctl entries.

So this patch simply removes the support for overriding existing entries in
the sys_sysctl interface since no one uses it or cares and it makes future
enhancments harder.

Linux-2.6.12-rc2

2005-04-16T22:20:36+00:00

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
