[NET]: dev_mcast: unexport dev_mc_upload

2007-07-11T05:15:53+00:00

dev_mc_add/dev_mc_delete take care of uploading the list when
necessary and thats the only interface other code should use.
Also remove two incorrect calls in DECnet.

[NET]: Rework dev_base via list_head (v3)

2007-05-03T22:13:45+00:00

Cleanup of dev_base list use, with the aim to simplify making device
list per-namespace. In almost every occasion, use of dev_base variable
and dev->next pointer could be easily replaced by for_each_netdev
loop. A few most complicated places were converted to using
first_netdev()/next_netdev().

[RTNETLINK]: Remove unnecessary locking in dump callbacks

2007-04-26T05:29:05+00:00

Since we're now holding the rtnl during the entire dump operation, we can
remove additional locking for rtnl protected data. This patch does that
for all simple cases (dev_base_lock for dev_base walking, RCU protection
for FIB rule dumping).

[SK_BUFF]: Introduce skb_reset_network_header(skb)

2007-04-26T05:24:46+00:00

For the common, open coded 'skb->nh.raw = skb->data' operation, so that we can
later turn skb->nh.raw into a offset, reducing the size of struct sk_buff in
64bit land while possibly keeping it as a pointer on 32bit.

This one touches just the most simple case, next will handle the slightly more
"complex" cases.

[PATCH] sysctl: remove the proc_dir_entry member for the sysctl tables

2007-02-14T16:10:00+00:00

It isn't needed anymore, all of the users are gone, and all of the ctl_table
initializers have been converted to use explicit names of the fields they are
initializing.

[PATCH] sysctl: remove insert_at_head from register_sysctl

2007-02-14T16:09:59+00:00

The semantic effect of insert_at_head is that it would allow new registered
sysctl entries to override existing sysctl entries of the same name.  Which is
pain for caching and the proc interface never implemented.

I have done an audit and discovered that none of the current users of
register_sysctl care as (excpet for directories) they do not register
duplicate sysctl entries.

So this patch simply removes the support for overriding existing entries in
the sys_sysctl interface since no one uses it or cares and it makes future
enhancments harder.
