3c359 endianness annotations and fixes

2007-12-23T04:16:42+00:00

Same story as with olympic - htons(readw()) when swab16(readw()) is needed,
missing conversions to le32 when dealing with shared descriptors, etc.
Olympic got those fixes in 2.4.0-test2, 3c359 didn't.

tokenring/3c359.c: fixed array index problem

2007-10-17T01:10:27+00:00

The xl_laa array is just 6 bytes long, so we should substract
10 from the index, like is also done some lines above already.

Avoid possible NULL pointer deref in 3c359 driver

2007-10-10T23:53:51+00:00

In xl_freemem(), if dev_if is NULL, the line

  struct xl_private *xl_priv =(struct xl_private *)dev->priv;

will cause a NULL pointer dereference.

(akpm: don't try to fix it: just delete the pointless test-for-null)

[NET]: Introduce and use print_mac() and DECLARE_MAC_BUF()

This is nicer than the MAC_FMT stuff.

[NET]: Nuke SET_MODULE_OWNER macro.

2007-10-10T23:51:13+00:00

It's been a useless no-op for long enough in 2.6 so I figured it's time to
remove it.  The number of people that could object because they're
maintaining unified 2.4 and 2.6 drivers is probably rather small.

dev->priv to netdev_priv(dev), drivers/net/tokenring/

2007-10-10T23:50:19+00:00

Replacing accesses to dev->priv to netdev_priv(dev). The replacment
is safe when netdev_priv is used to access a private structure that is
right next to the net_device structure in memory.
Cf http://groups.google.com/group/comp.os.linux.development.system/browse_thread/thread/de19321bcd94dbb8/0d74a4adcd6177bd
This is the case when the net_device structure was allocated with
a call to alloc_netdev or one of its derivative.

Here is an excerpt of the semantic patch that performs the transformation

@ rule1 @
type T;
struct net_device *dev;
@@

 dev =
(
        alloc_netdev
|
        alloc_etherdev
|
        alloc_trdev
)
   (sizeof(T), ...)

@ rule1bis @
struct net_device *dev;
expression E;
@@
 dev->priv = E

@ rule2 depends on rule1 && !rule1bis  @
struct net_device *dev;
type rule1.T;
@@

- (T*) dev->priv
+ netdev_priv(dev)

PS: I have performed the same transformation on the whole kernel
and it affects around 70 files, most of them in drivers/net/.
Should I split my patch for each subnet directories ? (wireless/, wan/, etc)

Thanks to Thomas Surrel for helping me refining my semantic patch.

[NET]: Make /proc/net per network namespace

2007-10-10T23:49:06+00:00

This patch makes /proc/net per network namespace.  It modifies the global
variables proc_net and proc_net_stat to be per network namespace.
The proc_net file helpers are modified to take a network namespace argument,
and all of their callers are fixed to pass &init_net for that argument.
This ensures that all of the /proc/net files are only visible and
usable in the initial network namespace until the code behind them
has been updated to be handle multiple network namespaces.

Making /proc/net per namespace is necessary as at least some files
in /proc/net depend upon the set of network devices which is per
network namespace, and even more files in /proc/net have contents
that are relevant to a single network namespace.
