net/ipv4/ipconfig: really display the BOOTP/DHCP server's address.

2013-01-04T23:14:14+00:00

Up to now, the debug and info messages from the ipconfig subsytem
claim to display the IP address of the DHCP/BOOTP server but
display instead the IP address of the bootserver.  Fix that.

ipconfig: fix trivial build error

2012-09-25T17:22:30+00:00

The commit 5e953778a2aab04929a5e7b69f53dc26e39b079e ("ipconfig: add nameserver
IPs to kernel-parameter ip=") introduces ic_nameservers_predef() that defined
only for BOOTP. However it is used by ip_auto_config_setup() as well. This
patch moves it outside of #ifdef BOOTP.

ipconfig: add nameserver IPs to kernel-parameter ip=

2012-09-21T18:51:21+00:00

On small systems (e.g. embedded ones) IP addresses are often configured
by bootloaders and get assigned to kernel via parameter "ip=".  If set to
"ip=dhcp", even nameserver entries from DHCP daemons are handled. These
entries exported in /proc/net/pnp are commonly linked by /etc/resolv.conf.

To configure nameservers for networks without DHCP, this patch adds option
 and  to kernel-parameter 'ip='.

net: delete all instances of special processing for token ring

2012-05-16T00:14:35+00:00

We are going to delete the Token ring support.  This removes any
special processing in the core networking for token ring, (aside
from net/tr.c itself), leaving the drivers and remaining tokenring
support present but inert.

The mass removal of the drivers and net/tr.c will be in a separate
commit, so that the history of these files that we still care
about won't have the giant deletion tied into their history.

net: Convert printks to pr_

2012-03-12T06:42:51+00:00

Use a more current kernel messaging style.

Convert a printk block to print_hex_dump.
Coalesce formats, align arguments.
Use %s, __func__ instead of embedding function names.

Some messages that were prefixed with _close are
now prefixed with _fini.  Some ah4 and esp messages
are now not prefixed with "ip ".

The intent of this patch is to later add something like
  #define pr_fmt(fmt) "IPv4: " fmt.
to standardize the output messages.

Text size is trivially reduced. (x86-32 allyesconfig)
