[WAN]: Remove broken and unmaintained Sangoma drivers.

2006-04-12T00:28:33+00:00

The in-kernel Sangoma drivers are both not compiling and marked as BROKEN
since at least kernel 2.6.0.

Sangoma offers out-of-tree drivers, and David Mandelstam told me Sangoma
does no longer maintain the in-kernel drivers and prefers to provide them
as a separate installation package.

This patch therefore removes these drivers.

[NET]: Add a dev_ioctl() fallback to sock_ioctl()

2006-01-03T22:18:33+00:00

Currently all network protocols need to call dev_ioctl as the default
fallback in their ioctl implementations.  This patch adds a fallback
to dev_ioctl to sock_ioctl if the protocol returned -ENOIOCTLCMD.
This way all the procotol ioctl handlers can be simplified and we don't
need to export dev_ioctl.

[NET]: move struct proto_ops to const

2006-01-03T21:11:15+00:00

I noticed that some of 'struct proto_ops' used in the kernel may share
a cache line used by locks or other heavily modified data. (default
linker alignement is 32 bytes, and L1_CACHE_LINE is 64 or 128 at
least)

This patch makes sure a 'struct proto_ops' can be declared as const,
so that all cpus can share all parts of it without false sharing.

This is not mandatory : a driver can still use a read/write structure
if it needs to (and eventually a __read_mostly)

I made a global stubstitute to change all existing occurences to make
them const.

This should reduce the possibility of false sharing on SMP, and
speedup some socket system calls.

This is the net/ part of the big kfree cleanup patch.

Remove pointless checks for NULL prior to calling kfree() in net/.

[TCP]: Move the tcp sock states to net/tcp_states.h

2005-08-29T22:41:54+00:00

Lots of places just needs the states, not even linux/tcp.h, where this
enum was, needs it.

This speeds up development of the refactorings as less sources are
rebuilt when things get moved from net/tcp.h.
