mm: Remove slab destructors from kmem_cache_create().

2007-07-20T01:11:58+00:00

Slab destructors were no longer supported after Christoph's
c59def9f222d44bb7e2f0a559f2906191a0862d7 change. They've been
BUGs for both slab and slub, and slob never supported them
either.

This rips out support for the dtor pointer from kmem_cache_create()
completely and fixes up every single callsite in the kernel (there were
about 224, not including the slab allocator definitions themselves,
or the documentation references).

[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).

[NETLINK]: Switch cb_lock spinlock to mutex and allow to override it

2007-04-26T05:29:03+00:00

Switch cb_lock to mutex and allow netlink kernel users to override it
with a subsystem specific mutex for consistent locking in dump callbacks.
All netlink_dump_start users have been audited not to rely on any
side-effects of the previously used spinlock.
