[NET]: Set truesize in pskb_copy

2006-11-07T23:10:14+00:00

Since pskb_copy tacks on the non-linear bits from the original
skb, it needs to count them in the truesize field of the new skb.

[NET]: __alloc_pages() failures reported due to fragmentation

2006-11-05T22:11:32+00:00

We have seen a couple of __alloc_pages() failures due to
fragmentation, there is plenty of free memory but no large order pages
available.  I think the problem is in sock_alloc_send_pskb(), the
gfp_mask includes __GFP_REPEAT but its never used/passed to the page
allocator.  Shouldnt the gfp_mask be passed to alloc_skb() ?

[NET]: Fix segmentation of linear packets

2006-10-30T23:24:36+00:00

skb_segment fails to segment linear packets correctly because it
tries to write all linear parts of the original skb into each
segment.  This will always panic as each segment only contains
enough space for one MSS.

This was not detected earlier because linear packets should be
rare for GSO.  In fact it still remains to be seen what exactly
created the linear packets that triggered this bug.  Basically
the only time this should happen is if someone enables GSO
emulation on an interface that does not support SG.

[NETPOLL]: initialize skb for UDP

[PATCH] wireless: WE-20 compatibility for ESSID and NICKN ioctls

2006-10-19T21:08:19+00:00

WE-21 changed the ABI for the SIOC[SG]IW{ESSID,NICKN} ioctls by dropping
NULL termination.  This patch adds compatibility code so that WE-21 can
work properly with WE-20 (and older) tools.

[PATCH] rename net_random to random32

2006-10-17T15:18:43+00:00

Make net_random() more widely available by calling it random32

akpm: hopefully this will permit the removal of carta_random32.  That needs
confirmation from Stephane - this code looks somewhat more computationally
expensive, and has a different (ie: callee-stateful) interface.

[akpm@osdl.org: lots of build fixes, cleanups]
