[NET]: make netlink user -> kernel interface synchronious

2007-10-11T04:15:29+00:00

This patch make processing netlink user -> kernel messages synchronious.
This change was inspired by the talk with Alexey Kuznetsov about current
netlink messages processing. He says that he was badly wrong when introduced 
asynchronious user -> kernel communication.

The call netlink_unicast is the only path to send message to the kernel
netlink socket. But, unfortunately, it is also used to send data to the
user.

Before this change the user message has been attached to the socket queue
and sk->sk_data_ready was called. The process has been blocked until all
pending messages were processed. The bad thing is that this processing
may occur in the arbitrary process context.

This patch changes nlk->data_ready callback to get 1 skb and force packet
processing right in the netlink_unicast.

Kernel -> user path in netlink_unicast remains untouched.

EINTR processing for in netlink_run_queue was changed. It forces rtnl_lock
drop, but the process remains in the cycle until the message will be fully
processed. So, there is no need to use this kludges now.

[PATCH] Process Events Connector

2005-11-07T15:53:35+00:00

This patch adds a connector that reports fork, exec, id change, and exit
events for all processes to userspace.  It replaces the fork_advisor patch
that ELSA is currently using.  Applications that may find these events
useful include accounting/auditing (e.g.  ELSA), system activity monitoring
(e.g.  top), security, and resource management (e.g.  CKRM).

[PATCH] gfp flags annotations - part 1

2005-10-08T22:00:57+00:00

 - added typedef unsigned int __nocast gfp_t;

 - replaced __nocast uses for gfp flags with gfp_t - it gives exactly
   the same warnings as far as sparse is concerned, doesn't change
   generated code (from gcc point of view we replaced unsigned int with
   typedef) and documents what's going on far better.
