tipc: adjust tipc_nodeid2string() to return string length 2025-09-30T09:22:39+00:00 Dmitry Antipov dmantipov@yandex.ru 2025-09-26T07:41:13+00:00 2ade91705b596b7b6b7de84c0ca59eced7acd1f6 Since the value returned by 'tipc_nodeid2string()' is not used, the function may be adjusted to return the length of the result, which is helpful to drop a few calls to 'strlen()' in 'tipc_link_create()' and 'tipc_link_bc_create()'.

dismantle. [0]

tipc_topsrv_stop() iterates tipc_net(net)->topsrv->conn_idr and calls
tipc_conn_close() for each tipc_conn.

The problem is that tipc_conn_close() is called after releasing the
IDR lock.

At the same time, there might be tipc_conn_recv_work() running and it
could call tipc_conn_close() for the same tipc_conn and release its
last ->kref.

Once we release the IDR lock in tipc_topsrv_stop(), there is no
guarantee that the tipc_conn is alive.

Let's hold the ref before releasing the lock and put the ref after
tipc_conn_close() in tipc_topsrv_stop().

net: ipv6: Make udp_tunnel6_xmit_skb() void 2025-06-18T01:18:45+00:00 Petr Machata petrm@nvidia.com 2025-06-16T22:44:13+00:00 6a7d88ca15f73c5c570c372238f71d63da1fda55 The function always returns zero, thus the return value does not carry any signal. Just make it void. Most callers already ignore the return value. However: - Refold arguments of the call from sctp_v6_xmit() so that they fit into the 80-column limit. - tipc_udp_xmit() initializes err from the return value, but that should already be always zero at that point. So there's no practical change, but elision of the assignment prompts a couple more tweaks to clean up the function.

The function always returns zero, thus the return value does not carry any
signal. Just make it void.

Most callers already ignore the return value. However:

- Refold arguments of the call from sctp_v6_xmit() so that they fit into
  the 80-column limit.

- tipc_udp_xmit() initializes err from the return value, but that should
  already be always zero at that point. So there's no practical change, but
  elision of the assignment prompts a couple more tweaks to clean up the
  function.
