mm: replace various uses of num_physpages by totalram_pages

2010-04-01T22:55:50+00:00

commit 4481374ce88ba8f460c8b89f2572027bd27057d0 upstream.

Sizing of memory allocations shouldn't depend on the number of physical
pages found in a system, as that generally includes (perhaps a huge amount
of) non-RAM pages.  The amount of what actually is usable as storage
should instead be used as a basis here.

Some of the calculations (i.e.  those not intending to use high memory)
should likely even use (totalram_pages - totalhigh_pages).

decnet: Use rcu_barrier() on module unload.

2009-06-26T20:51:27+00:00

The decnet module unloading as been disabled with a '#if 0' statement,
because it have had issues.

We add a rcu_barrier() anyhow for correctness.

The maintainer (Chrissie Caulfield) will look into the unload issue
when time permits.

net: correct off-by-one write allocations reports

2009-06-18T07:29:12+00:00

commit 2b85a34e911bf483c27cfdd124aeb1605145dc80
(net: No more expensive sock_hold()/sock_put() on each tx)
changed initial sk_wmem_alloc value.

We need to take into account this offset when reporting
sk_wmem_alloc to user, in PROC_FS files or various
ioctls (SIOCOUTQ/TIOCOUTQ)

net: skb->dst accessors

2009-06-03T09:51:04+00:00

Define three accessors to get/set dst attached to a skb

struct dst_entry *skb_dst(const struct sk_buff *skb)

void skb_dst_set(struct sk_buff *skb, struct dst_entry *dst)

void skb_dst_drop(struct sk_buff *skb)
This one should replace occurrences of :
dst_release(skb->dst)
skb->dst = NULL;

Delete skb->dst field

net: Remove unused parameter from fill method in fib_rules_ops.

2009-05-21T00:26:23+00:00

The netlink message header (struct nlmsghdr) is an unused parameter in
fill method of fib_rules_ops struct.  This patch removes this
parameter from this method and fixes the places where this method is
called.

net/*: use linux/kernel.h swap()

2009-03-21T20:36:17+00:00

tcp_sack_swap seems unnecessary so I pushed swap to the caller.
Also removed comment that seemed then pointless, and added include
when not already there. Compile tested.

Protocols that use packet_type can be __read_mostly section for better
locality. Elminate any unnecessary initializations of NULL.
