[NETFILTER]: Fix section mismatch warnings

2006-04-10T05:25:34+00:00

Fix section mismatch warnings caused by netfilter's init_or_cleanup
functions used in many places by splitting the init from the cleanup
parts.

[NETFILTER]: Rename init functions.

2006-03-29T01:02:48+00:00

Every netfilter module uses `init' for its module_init() function and
`fini' or `cleanup' for its module_exit() function.

Problem is, this creates uninformative initcall_debug output and makes
ctags rather useless.

So go through and rename them all to $(filename)_init and
$(filename)_fini.

[NETFILTER]: nfnetlink_queue: fix nfnetlink message size

2006-03-22T21:54:40+00:00

Fix oversized message, use NLMSG_SPACE just one since it reserves space
for the netlink header and NFA_SPACE for every attribute.

Thanks to Harald Welte for the feedback

[NETFILTER]: nfnetlink_queue: fix packet marking over netlink

2006-02-05T07:51:20+00:00

The packet marked is the netlink skb, not the queued skb.

[NETFILTER]: Decrease number of pointer derefs in nfnetlink_queue.c

2006-01-05T20:15:58+00:00

Benefits of the patch:
 - Fewer pointer dereferences should make the code slightly faster.
 - Size of generated code is smaller
 - improved readability

[NETFILTER] nfnetlink: unconditionally require CAP_NET_ADMIN

2005-11-14T23:24:59+00:00

This patch unconditionally requires CAP_NET_ADMIN for all nfnetlink
messages.  It also removes the per-message cap_required field, since all
existing subsystems use CAP_NET_ADMIN for all their messages anyway.

Patrick McHardy owes me a beer if we ever need to re-introduce this.

[NET]: Fix packet timestamping.

2005-10-03T20:57:23+00:00

I've found the problem in general.  It affects any 64-bit
architecture.  The problem occurs when you change the system time.

Suppose that when you boot your system clock is forward by a day.
This gets recorded down in skb_tv_base.  You then wind the clock back
by a day.  From that point onwards the offset will be negative which
essentially overflows the 32-bit variables they're stored in.

In fact, why don't we just store the real time stamp in those 32-bit
variables? After all, we're not going to overflow for quite a while
yet.

When we do overflow, we'll need a better solution of course.
