tipc: Eliminate improper use of TIPC_OK error code

2008-07-15T05:44:01+00:00

This patch corrects many places where TIPC routines indicated
successful completion by returning TIPC_OK instead of 0.
(The TIPC_OK symbol has the value 0, but it should only be used
in contexts that deal with the error code field of a TIPC
message header.)

tipc: Fix race condition when creating socket or native port

2008-05-12T22:42:28+00:00

This patch eliminates the (very remote) chance of a crash resulting
from a partially initialized socket or native port unexpectedly
receiving a message.  Now, during the creation of a socket or native
port, the underlying generic port's lock is not released until all
initialization required to handle incoming messages has been done.

[TIPC]: Cleanup of TIPC reference table code

2008-04-17T01:22:20+00:00

This patch is a largely cosmetic cleanup of the TIPC reference
table code.
- The object reference field in each table entry is now single
  32-bit integer instead of a union of two 32-bit integers.
- Variable naming has been made more consistent.
- Error message output has been made more consistent.
- Useless #includes have been eliminated.

[TIPC]: Optimized initialization of TIPC reference table

This patch modifies TIPC's reference table code to delay initializing
table entries until they are actually needed by applications.

[TIPC]: Remove inlining of reference table locking routines

2008-04-17T01:21:16+00:00

This patch converts the TIPC reference table locking routines
into non-inlined routines, since they are mainly called from
non-performance critical areas of TIPC and the added code
footprint incurred through inlining can no longer be justified.

[PATCH] spin/rwlock init cleanups

2006-06-28T00:32:39+00:00

locking init cleanups:

 - convert " = SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED" to spin_lock_init() or DEFINE_SPINLOCK()
 - convert rwlocks in a similar manner

this patch was generated automatically.

Motivation:

 - cleanliness
 - lockdep needs control of lock initialization, which the open-coded
   variants do not give
 - it's also useful for -rt and for lock debugging in general

[TIPC]: First phase of assert() cleanup

2006-06-26T06:51:37+00:00

This also contains enhancements to simplify comparisons in name table
publication removal algorithm and to simplify name table sanity checking
when shutting down TIPC.
