* ipv6: Correct comparisons and calculations using skb->tail and ↵Simon Horman2013-05-291-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | skb-transport_header This corrects an regression introduced by "net: Use 16bits for *_headers fields of struct skbuff" when NET_SKBUFF_DATA_USES_OFFSET is not set. In that case skb->tail will be a pointer whereas skb->transport_header will be an offset from head. This is corrected by using wrappers that ensure that comparisons and calculations are always made using pointers. Signed-off-by: Simon Horman <horms@verge.net.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

* net: proc: change proc_net_remove to remove_proc_entryGao feng2013-02-181-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | proc_net_remove is only used to remove proc entries that under /proc/net,it's not a general function for removing proc entries of netns. if we want to remove some proc entries which under /proc/net/stat/, we still need to call remove_proc_entry. this patch use remove_proc_entry to replace proc_net_remove. we can remove proc_net_remove after this patch.

* net: proc: change proc_net_fops_create to proc_createGao feng2013-02-181-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Right now, some modules such as bonding use proc_create to create proc entries under /proc/net/, and other modules such as ipv4 use proc_net_fops_create. It looks a little chaos.this patch changes all of proc_net_fops_create to proc_create. we can remove proc_net_fops_create after this patch.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ipv6: Remove all uses of LL_ALLOCATED_SPACE The macro LL_ALLOCATED_SPACE was ill-conceived. It applies the alignment to the sum of needed_headroom and needed_tailroom. As the amount that is then reserved for head room is needed_headroom with alignment, this means that the tail room left may be too small. This patch replaces all uses of LL_ALLOCATED_SPACE in net/ipv6 with the macro LL_RESERVED_SPACE and direct reference to needed_tailroom. This also fixes the problem with needed_headroom changing between allocating the skb and reserving the head room. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

* bonding: remap muticast addresses without using dev_close() and dev_open()Moni Shoua2009-09-151-0/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes commit e36b9d16c6a6d0f59803b3ef04ff3c22c3844c10. The approach there is to call dev_close()/dev_open() whenever the device type is changed in order to remap the device IP multicast addresses to HW multicast addresses. This approach suffers from 2 drawbacks: *. It assumes tha the device is UP when calling dev_close(), or otherwise dev_close() has no affect. It is worth to mention that initscripts (Redhat) and sysconfig (Suse) doesn't act the same in this matter. *. dev_close() has other side affects, like deleting entries from the routing table, which might be unnecessary. The fix here is to directly remap the IP multicast addresses to HW multicast addresses for a bonding device that changes its type, and nothing else.

* mcastv6: Local variable shadows function argumentGerrit Renker2009-07-211-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | The local variable 'idev' shadows the function argument 'idev' to ip6_mc_add_src(). Fixed by removing the local declaration, as pmc->idev should be identical with 'idev' passed as argument.
