NLM: Don't hang forever on NLM unlock requests

2011-11-07T21:47:37+00:00

commit 0b760113a3a155269a3fba93a409c640031dd68f upstream.

If the NLM daemon is killed on the NFS server, we can currently end up
hanging forever on an 'unlock' request, instead of aborting. Basically,
if the rpcbind request fails, or the server keeps returning garbage, we
really want to quit instead of retrying.

In what history where these ever needed? Well not
any more.

sysctl: Drop & in front of every proc_handler.

2009-11-18T16:37:40+00:00

For consistency drop & in front of every proc_handler.  Explicity
taking the address is unnecessary and it prevents optimizations
like stubbing the proc_handlers to NULL.

sysctl fs: Remove dead binary sysctl support

2009-11-12T10:04:55+00:00

Now that sys_sysctl is a generic wrapper around /proc/sys  .ctl_name
and .strategy members of sysctl tables are dead code.  Remove them.

headers: utsname.h redux

2009-09-24T01:13:10+00:00

* remove asm/atomic.h inclusion from linux/utsname.h --
   not needed after kref conversion
 * remove linux/utsname.h inclusion from files which do not need it

NOTE: it looks like fs/binfmt_elf.c do not need utsname.h, however
due to some personality stuff it _is_ needed -- cowardly leave ELF-related
headers and files alone.

sunrpc: add routine for comparing addresses

2009-08-21T15:27:42+00:00

lockd needs these sort of routines, as does the NFSv4 callback code.

Move lockd's routines into common code and rename them so that they can
be used by others.
