  • Provide initial support for displaying overall TIPC status/statistics
    information at runtime. Currently, only version info for the TIPC
    kernel module is displayed.

  • Eliminate some unused data structures in the TIPC
    configuration service that relate to the handling of link
    subscriptions, which were not supported when TIPC 1.5 was
    introduced. If and when support for link subscriptions is
    offered in TIPC, these elements may need to be re-introduced.

  • This patch ensures that TIPC's topology service and configuration
    service are shut down before switching into "network mode". This
    ensures that TIPC does not mistakenly try to send unnecessary
    "publication withdraw" messages to other nodes before it is fully
    initialized for sending off-node messages. Note that the node's
    current network address is now updated only after the two services
    are shut down; this ensures that any existing connections to the
    topology server are terminated correctly using the old address.

  • This patch prevents a TIPC configuration command requiring network
    administrator privileges from triggering an skbuff underrun if it
    is issued by a process lacking those privileges. The revised error
    handling code avoids the use of a potentially uninitialized global
    variable by transforming the unauthorized command into a new command,
    then following the standard command processing path to generate the
    required error message.

  • This patch simplifies & standardizes the way TIPC's print buffer
    log is resized. Code to terminate use of the log buffer is
    eliminated by simply setting the log buffer size to 0 bytes.

  • So that it is also an offset from skb->head, reduces its size from 8 to 4 bytes
    on 64bit architectures, allowing us to combine the 4 bytes hole left by the
    layer headers conversion, reducing struct sk_buff size to 256 bytes, i.e. 4
    64byte cachelines, and since the sk_buff slab cache is SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN...
    :-)

    Many calculations that previously required that skb->{transport,network,
    mac}_header be first converted to a pointer now can be done directly, being
    meaningful as offsets or pointers.

  • Run this:

    #!/bin/sh
    for f in $(grep -Erl "\([^\)]*\) *k[cmz]alloc" *) ; do
    echo "De-casting $f..."
    perl -pi -e "s/ ?= ?\([^\)]*\) *(k[cmz]alloc) *\(/ = \1\(/" $f
    done

    And then go through and reinstate those cases where code is casting pointers
    to non-pointers.

    And then drop a few hunks which conflicted with outstanding work.

  • 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

  • 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.
