2007-02-14[PATCH] sysctl: remove insert_at_head from register_sysctlEric W. Biederman
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. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

The sysctl numbers used are unique so setting the insert_at_head flag serves no semantis purpose, and is just confusing. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2007-02-12[PATCH] mark struct file_operations const 8Arjan van de Ven
Many struct file_operations in the kernel can be "const". Marking them const moves these to the .rodata section, which avoids false sharing with potential dirty data. In addition it'll catch accidental writes at compile time to these shared resources.

2006-08-13[LLC]: multicast receive device matchStephen Hemminger
Fix from Aji_Srinivas@emc.com, STP packets are incorrectly received on all LLC datagram sockets, whichever interface they are bound to. The llc_sap datagram receive logic sends packets with a unicast destination MAC to one socket bound to that SAP and MAC, and multicast packets to all sockets bound to that SAP. STP packets are multicast, and we do need to know on which interface they were received. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2006-08-04[LLX]: SOCK_DGRAM interface fixesStephen Hemminger
The datagram interface of LLC is broken in a couple of ways. These were discovered when trying to use it to build an out-of-kernel version of STP. First it didn't pass the source address of the received packet in recvfrom(). It needs to copy the source address of received LLC packets into the socket control block. At the same time fix a security issue because there was uninitialized data leakage. Every recvfrom call was just copying out old data. Second, LLC should not merge multiple packets in one receive call on datagram sockets. LLC should preserve packet boundaries on SOCK_DGRAM. This fix goes against the old historical comments about UNIX98 semantics but without this fix SOCK_DGRAM is broken and useless. So either ANK's interpretation was incorect or UNIX98 standard was wrong.

2006-06-17[LLC]: allow applications to get copy of kernel datagramsStephen Hemminger
It is legal for an application to bind to a SAP that is also being used by the kernel. This happens if the bridge module binds to the STP SAP, and the user wants to have a daemon for STP as well. It is possible to have kernel doing STP on one bridge, but let application do RSTP on another bridge. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

2006-06-17[LLC]: allow datagram recvmsgStephen Hemminger

Kernel Bugzilla #6409 If we use plain skb_trim(), that's wrong, because if the SKB is cloned, and it can be because we unshared it in the caller, we have to allow reallocation.

2006-01-03[NET]: Add a dev_ioctl() fallback to sock_ioctl()Christoph Hellwig
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.

2006-01-03[NET]: move struct proto_ops to constEric Dumazet
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. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2006-01-03[NET]: Avoid atomic xchg() for non-error caseBenjamin LaHaise

2005-11-17[LLC]: Fix compiler warnings introduced by TX window scaling changes.David S. Miller
Noticed by Olaf Hering. The comparisons want a u8 here (the data type on the left-hand branch is a u8 structure member, and the constant on the right-hand branch is "~((u8) 128)"), but C turns it into an integer so we get: net/llc/llc_c_ac.c: In function `llc_conn_ac_inc_npta_value': net/llc/llc_c_ac.c:998: warning: comparison is always true due to limited range of data type net/llc/llc_c_ac.c:999: warning: large integer implicitly truncated to unsigned type Fix this up by explicitly recasting the right-hand branch constant into a "u8" once more.
