2009-03-10net: convert usage of packet_type to read_mostlyStephen Hemminger
Protocols that use packet_type can be __read_mostly section for better locality. Elminate any unnecessary initializations of NULL. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-02-18aoe: ignore vendor extension AoE responsesEd Cashin
The Welland ME-747K-SI AoE target generates unsolicited AoE responses that are marked as vendor extensions. Instead of ignoring these packets, the aoe driver was generating kernel messages for each unrecognized response received. This patch corrects the behavior.

2008-09-23aoe: Fix OOPS after SKB queue changes.David S. Miller
Reported by Thomas Graf. If we don't unlink the SKB from the queue when we send it out in aoenet_xmit(), dev_hard_start_xmit() will see skb->next as non-NULL and interpret this to mean the SKB is part of a GSO segment list. Add __skb_unlink() call to fix that. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2008-08-01Remove newline from the description of module parametersNiels de Vos
Some module parameters with only one line have the '\n' at the end of the description. This is not needed nor wanted as after the description the type (i.e. int) is followed by a newline. Some modules contain a multi-line description, these are not affected by this patch.

2008-02-08aoe: handle multiple network paths to AoE deviceEd L. Cashin
A remote AoE device is something can process ATA commands and is identified by an AoE shelf number and an AoE slot number. Such a device might have more than one network interface, and it might be reachable by more than one local network interface. This patch tracks the available network paths available to each AoE device, allowing them to be used more efficiently. Andrew Morton asked about the call to msleep_interruptible in the revalidate function. Yes, if a signal is pending, then msleep_interruptible will not return 0. That means we will not loop but will call aoenet_xmit with a NULL skb, which is a noop. If the system is too low on memory or the aoe driver is too low on frames, then the user can hit control-C to interrupt the attempt to do a revalidate. I have added a comment to the code summarizing that. Andrew Morton asked whether the allocation performed inside addtgt could use a more relaxed allocation like GFP_KERNEL, but addtgt is called when the aoedev lock has been locked with spin_lock_irqsave. It would be nice to allocate the memory under fewer restrictions, but targets are only added when the device is being discovered, and if the target can't be added right now, we can try again in a minute when then next AoE config query broadcast goes out. Andrew Morton pointed out that the "too many targets" message could be printed for failing GFP_ATOMIC allocations. The last patch in this series makes the messages more specific. Signed-off-by: Ed L.

2007-10-17aoe: remove unecessary wrapper functionEd L. Cashin
We can just use skb_mac_header now, and we don't need a wrapper function to perform the cast. Instead of requiring the reader to check aoe.h to look up what an aoe_hdr function does, I'd rather do without it.

2007-10-10[NET]: Make packet reception network namespace safeEric W. Biederman
This patch modifies every packet receive function registered with dev_add_pack() to drop packets if they are not from the initial network namespace. This should ensure that the various network stacks do not receive packets in a anything but the initial network namespace until the code has been converted and is ready for them.

2006-06-17[NET]: Clean up skb_linearizeHerbert Xu
The linearisation operation doesn't need to be super-optimised. So we can replace __skb_linearize with __pskb_pull_tail which does the same thing but is more general. Also, most users of skb_linearize end up testing whether the skb is linear or not so it helps to make skb_linearize do just that. Some callers of skb_linearize also use it to copy cloned data, so it's useful to have a new function skb_linearize_cow to copy the data if it's either non-linear or cloned. Last but not least, I've removed the gfp argument since nobody uses it anymore. If it's ever needed we can easily add it back.

2005-08-29[NET]: Kill skb->real_devDavid S. Miller
Bonding just wants the device before the skb_bond() decapsulation occurs, so simply pass that original device into packet_type->func() as an argument.

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds
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!
