  • e174961ca   net: convert print_mac to %pM ... Browse Code »

    This converts pretty much everything to print_mac. There were
    a few things that had conflicts which I have just dropped for
    now, no harm done.

    I've built an allyesconfig with this and looked at the files
    that weren't built very carefully, but it's a huge patch.

  • 0e35fd5e5   tipc: Eliminate improper use of TIPC_OK error code ... Browse Code »

    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.)

  • 0c4e85813   [NET]: Wrap netdevice hardware header creation. ... Browse Code »

    Add inline for common usage of hardware header creation, and
    fix bug in IPV6 mcast where the assumption about negative return is
    an errno. Negative return from hard_header means not enough space
    was available,(ie -N bytes).

  • 881d966b4   [NET]: Make the device list and device lookups per namespace. ... Browse Code »

    This patch makes most of the generic device layer network
    namespace safe. This patch makes dev_base_head a
    network namespace variable, and then it picks up
    a few associated variables. The functions:
    dev_getbyhwaddr
    dev_getfirsthwbytype
    dev_get_by_flags
    dev_get_by_name
    __dev_get_by_name
    dev_get_by_index
    __dev_get_by_index
    dev_ioctl
    dev_ethtool
    dev_load
    wireless_process_ioctl

    were modified to take a network namespace argument, and
    deal with it.

    vlan_ioctl_set and brioctl_set were modified so their
    hooks will receive a network namespace argument.

    So basically anthing in the core of the network stack that was
    affected to by the change of dev_base was modified to handle
    multiple network namespaces. The rest of the network stack was
    simply modified to explicitly use &init_net the initial network
    namespace. This can be fixed when those components of the network
    stack are modified to handle multiple network namespaces.

    For now the ifindex generator is left global.

    Fundametally ifindex numbers are per namespace, or else
    we will have corner case problems with migration when
    we get that far.

    At the same time there are assumptions in the network stack
    that the ifindex of a network device won't change. Making
    the ifindex number global seems a good compromise until
    the network stack can cope with ifindex changes when
    you change namespaces, and the like.

  • e9dc86534   [NET]: Make device event notification network namespace safe ... Browse Code »

    Every user of the network device notifiers is either a protocol
    stack or a pseudo device. If a protocol stack that does not have
    support for multiple network namespaces receives an event for a
    device that is not in the initial network namespace it quite possibly
    can get confused and do the wrong thing.

    To avoid problems until all of the protocol stacks are converted
    this patch modifies all netdev event handlers to ignore events on
    devices that are not in the initial network namespace.

    As the rest of the code is made network namespace aware these
    checks can be removed.

  • e730c1551   [NET]: Make packet reception network namespace safe ... Browse Code »

    This patch modifies every packet receive function
    registered with dev_add_pack() to drop packets if they
    are not from the initial network namespace.

    This should ensure that the various network stacks do
    not receive packets in a anything but the initial network
    namespace until the code has been converted and is ready
    for them.

  • f3ec75f62   [TIPC]: Improved support for Ethernet traffic filtering ... Browse Code »

    This patch simplifies TIPC's Ethernet receive routine to take
    advantage of information already present in each incoming sk_buff
    indicating whether the packet was explicitly sent to the interface,
    has been broadcast to all interfaces, or was picked up because the
    interface is in promiscous mode.

    This new approach also fixes the problem of TIPC accepting unwanted
    traffic through UML's multicast-based Ethernet interfaces (which
    deliver traffic in a promiscuous manner even if the interface is
    not configured to be promiscuous).

  • 7562f876c   [NET]: Rework dev_base via list_head (v3) ... Browse Code »

    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().

  • 1fc54d8f4   [TIPC]: Fix simple sparse warnings ... Browse Code »

    Tried to run the new tipc stack through sparse.
    Following patch fixes all cases where 0 was used
    as replacement of NULL.
    Use NULL to document this is a pointer and to silence sparse.

    This brough sparse warning count down with 127 to 24 warnings.
