[IPV6]: Track device renames in snmp6.

2007-04-29T04:16:39+00:00

When network device's are renamed, the IPV6 snmp6 code
gets confused. It doesn't track name changes so it will OOPS
when network device's are removed.

The fix is trivial, just unregister/re-register in notify handler.

[IPV6]: Consolidate common SNMP code

2007-04-26T05:29:52+00:00

This patch moves the non-proc SNMP code into addrconf.c and reuses
IPv4 SNMP code where applicable.

As a result we can skip proc.o if /proc is disabled.

Note that I've made a number of functions static since they're only
used by addrconf.c for now.  If they ever get used elsewhere we can
always remove the static.

[IPV6] SNMP: Use put_unaligned() instead of memcpy().

[IPV6] SNMP: Avoid unaligned accesses.

2007-04-26T05:29:35+00:00

Because stats pointer may not be aligned for u64, use memcpy
to fill u64 values.

[PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.h

2007-02-14T16:09:54+00:00

After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
anything defined in there.  Presumably these includes were once needed for
macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
course of cleaning it up.

To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.

Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all
configs in arch/arm/configs on arm.  I also checked that no new warnings were
introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
by unnecessarily included header files).

[PATCH] mark struct file_operations const 7

2007-02-12T17:48:46+00:00

Many struct file_operations in the kernel can be "const".  Marking them const
moves these to the .rodata section, which avoids false sharing with potential
dirty data.  In addition it'll catch accidental writes at compile time to
these shared resources.
