<content type='text'>
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 &lt;foo&gt;_close are
now prefixed with &lt;foo&gt;_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)

$ size net/ipv4/built-in.o*
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
 887888	  31558	 249696	1169142	 11d6f6	net/ipv4/built-in.o.new

We can remove the rt_gateway == 0 check but we shouldn't
remove the 'dst' initialization too.

It can never actually happen.  rt_gateway is either the fully resolved
flow lookup key's destination address, or the non-zero FIB entry gateway
address.

commit a9b3cd7f32 (rcu: convert uses of rcu_assign_pointer(x, NULL) to
RCU_INIT_POINTER) did a lot of incorrect changes, since it did a
complete conversion of rcu_assign_pointer(x, y) to RCU_INIT_POINTER(x,
y).

We miss needed barriers, even on x86, when y is not NULL.

<title>ipip, sit: copy parms.name after register_netdevice</title>

<id>72b36015ba43a3cca5303f5534d2c3e1899eae29</id>
<content type='text'>
Same fix as 731abb9cb2 for ipip and sit tunnel.
Commit 1c5cae815d removed an explicit call to dev_alloc_name in
ipip_tunnel_locate and ipip6_tunnel_locate, because register_netdevice
will now create a valid name, however the tunnel keeps a copy of the
name in the private parms structure. Fix this by copying the name back
after register_netdevice has successfully returned.

This shows up if you do a simple tunnel add, followed by a tunnel show:

$ sudo ip tunnel add mode ipip remote 10.2.20.211
$ ip tunnel
tunl0: ip/ip  remote any  local any  ttl inherit  nopmtudisc
tunl%d: ip/ip  remote 10.2.20.211  local any  ttl inherit
$ sudo ip tunnel add mode sit remote 10.2.20.212
$ ip tunnel
sit0: ipv6/ip  remote any  local any  ttl 64  nopmtudisc 6rd-prefix 2002::/16
sit%d: ioctl 89f8 failed: No such device
sit%d: ipv6/ip  remote 10.2.20.212  local any  ttl inherit

Tunnels can force an alignment of their percpu data to reduce number of
cache lines used in fast path, or read in .ndo_get_stats()

percpu_alloc() is a very fine grained allocator, so any small hole will
be used anyway.

When assigning a NULL value to an RCU protected pointer, no barrier
is needed. The rcu_assign_pointer, used to handle that but will soon
change to not handle the special case.

Convert all rcu_assign_pointer of NULL value.
