====================
netdev-related stuff in vfs.git

There are several commits sitting in vfs.git that probably ought to go in
via net-next.git.  First of all, there's merge with vfs.git#iocb - that's
Christoph's aio rework, which has triggered conflicts with the ->sendmsg()
and ->recvmsg() patches a while ago.  It's not so much Christoph's stuff
that ought to be in net-next, as (pretty simple) conflict resolution on merge.
The next chunk is switch to {compat_,}import_iovec/import_single_range - new
safer primitives for initializing iov_iter.  The primitives themselves come
from vfs/git#iov_iter (and they are used quite a lot in vfs part of queue),
conversion of net/socket.c syscalls belongs in net-next, IMO.  Next there's
afs and rxrpc stuff from dhowells.  And then there's sanitizing kernel_sendmsg
et.al.  + missing inlined helper for "how much data is left in msg->msg_iter" -
this stuff is used in e.g.  cifs stuff, but it belongs in net-next.

That pile is pullable from
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs.git for-davem

I'll post the individual patches in there in followups; could you take a look
and tell if everything in there is OK with you?

Merge branch 'iocb' into for-davem

2015-04-09T04:01:38+00:00

trivial conflict in net/socket.c and non-trivial one in crypto -
that one had evaded aio_complete() removal.

netfilter: Pass socket pointer down through okfn().

2015-04-07T19:25:55+00:00

On the output paths in particular, we have to sometimes deal with two
socket contexts.  First, and usually skb->sk, is the local socket that
generated the frame.

And second, is potentially the socket used to control a tunneling
socket, such as one the encapsulates using UDP.

We do not want to disassociate skb->sk when encapsulating in order
to fix this, because that would break socket memory accounting.

The most extreme case where this can cause huge problems is an
AF_PACKET socket transmitting over a vxlan device.  We hit code
paths doing checks that assume they are dealing with an ipv4
socket, but are actually operating upon the AF_PACKET one.

ipv4: coding style: comparison for inequality with NULL

2015-04-03T16:11:15+00:00

The ipv4 code uses a mixture of coding styles. In some instances check
for non-NULL pointer is done as x != NULL and sometimes as x. x is
preferred according to checkpatch and this patch makes the code
consistent by adopting the latter form.

No changes detected by objdiff.

2015-04-03T16:11:15+00:00

The ipv4 code uses a mixture of coding styles. In some instances check
for NULL pointer is done as x == NULL and sometimes as !x. !x is
preferred according to checkpatch and this patch makes the code
consistent by adopting the latter form.

fs: move struct kiocb to fs.h

2015-03-26T00:28:11+00:00

struct kiocb now is a generic I/O container, so move it to fs.h.
Also do a #include diet for aio.h while we're at it.

ipv4: hash net ptr into fragmentation bucket selection

2015-03-25T18:07:04+00:00

As namespaces are sometimes used with overlapping ip address ranges,
we should also use the namespace as input to the hash to select the ip
fragmentation counter bucket.

net: Remove iocb argument from sendmsg and recvmsg

2015-03-02T18:06:31+00:00

After TIPC doesn't depend on iocb argument in its internal
implementations of sendmsg() and recvmsg() hooks defined in proto
structure, no any user is using iocb argument in them at all now.
Then we can drop the redundant iocb argument completely from kinds of
implementations of both sendmsg() and recvmsg() in the entire
networking stack.

net: switch memcpy_fromiovec()/memcpy_fromiovecend() users to copy_from_iter()

2015-02-04T06:34:15+00:00

That takes care of the majority of ->sendmsg() instances - most of them
via memcpy_to_msg() or assorted getfrag() callbacks.  One place where we
still keep memcpy_fromiovecend() is tipc - there we potentially read the
same data over and over; separate patch, that...
