  • There are a mix of function prototypes with and without extern
    in the kernel sources. Standardize on not using extern for
    function prototypes.

    Function prototypes don't need to be written with extern.
    extern is assumed by the compiler. Its use is as unnecessary as
    using auto to declare automatic/local variables in a block.

  • These header files are never installed to user consumption, so any
    __KERNEL__ cpp checks are superfluous.

    Projects should also not copy these files into their userland utility
    sources and try to use them there. If they insist on doing so, the
    onus is on them to sanitize the headers as needed.

  • This patch uses notifier blocks to implement a network event
    notifier mechanism.

    Clients register their callback function by calling
    register_netevent_notifier() like this:

    static struct notifier_block nb = {
    .notifier_call = my_callback_func
    };

    ...

    register_netevent_notifier(&nb);
