    …it slab.h inclusion from percpu.h

    percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
    included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
    in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
    universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

    percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
    this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
    headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
    needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
    used as the basis of conversion.

    http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

    The script does the followings.

    * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
    only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
    gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

    * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
    blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
    to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
    core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
    alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
    doesn't seem to be any matching order.

    * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
    because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
    an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
    file.

    The conversion was done in the following steps.

    1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
    over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
    and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
    files.

    2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
    some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
    embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
    inclusions to around 150 files.

    3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
    from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

    4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
    e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
    APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

    5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
    editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
    files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
    inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
    wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
    slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
    necessary.

    6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

    7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
    were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
    distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
    more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
    build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

    * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
    * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
    * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
    * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
    * s390 SMP allmodconfig
    * alpha SMP allmodconfig
    * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

    8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
    a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

    Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
    6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
    If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
    headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
    the specific arch.

    If this module can't load, it is almost certainly because something else
    is already bound to that SAP. So in that case, return the same error code
    as other SAP usage, and fail the module load.

    Also fixes a compiler warning about printk of non const.

    Clean up the various different email addresses of mine listed in the code
    to a single current and valid address. As Dave says his network merges
    for 2.6.28 are now done this seems a good point to send them in where
    they won't risk disrupting real changes.

  • 696adfe84   list_for_each_rcu must die: networking ... Browse Code »

    All uses of list_for_each_rcu() can be profitably replaced by the
    easier-to-use list_for_each_entry_rcu(). This patch makes this change for
    networking, in preparation for removing the list_for_each_rcu() API
    entirely.

  • 82524746c   rcu: split list.h and move rcu-protected lists into rculist.h ... Browse Code »

    Move rcu-protected lists from list.h into a new header file rculist.h.

    This is done because list are a very used primitive structure all over the
    kernel and it's currently impossible to include other header files in this
    list.h without creating some circular dependencies.

    For example, list.h implements rcu-protected list and uses rcu_dereference()
    without including rcupdate.h. It actually compiles because users of
    rcu_dereference() are macros. Others RCU functions could be used too but
    aren't probably because of this.

    Therefore this patch creates rculist.h which includes rcupdates without to
    many changes/troubles.

  • d92a7db71   [SNAP]: Check packet length before reading ... Browse Code »

    The snap_rcv code reads 5 bytes so we should make sure that
    we have 5 bytes in the head before proceeding.

    Based on diagnosis and fix by Evgeniy Polyakov, reported by
    Alan J. Wylie.

    Patch also kills the skb->sk assignment before kfree_skb
    since it's redundant.

  • cbb042f9e   [NET]: Replace skb_pull/skb_postpull_rcsum with skb_pull_rcsum ... Browse Code »

    We're now starting to have quite a number of places that do skb_pull
    followed immediately by an skb_postpull_rcsum. We can merge these two
    operations into one function with skb_pull_rcsum. This makes sense
    since most pull operations on receive skb's need to update the
    checksum.

    I've decided to make this out-of-line since it is fairly big and the
    fast path where hardware checksums are enabled need to call
    csum_partial anyway.

    Since this is a brand new function we get to add an extra check on the
    len argument. As it is most callers of skb_pull ignore its return
    value which essentially means that there is no check on the len
    argument.

    Bonding just wants the device before the skb_bond()
    decapsulation occurs, so simply pass that original
    device into packet_type->func() as an argument.

    It remains to be seen whether we can use this same
    exact thing to get rid of skb->input_dev as well.

    Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
    even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
    archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
    3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
    git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
    infrastructure for it.

    Let it rip!
