  • There's already an option controlling the net namespaces cloning code, so make
    it work the same way as all the other namespaces' options.

  • The NETFILTER_ADVANCED option hides lots of the rather obscure netfilter
    options when disabled and provides defaults (M) that should allow to
    run a distribution firewall without further thinking.

    Defaults to 'y' to avoid breaking current configurations.

  • This patch adds the CAN core functionality but no protocols or drivers.
    No protocol implementations are included here. They come as separate
    patches. Protocol numbers are already in include/linux/can.h.

  • This patch allows you to create a new network namespace
    using sys_clone, or sys_unshare.

    As the network namespace is still experimental and under development
    clone and unshare support is only made available when CONFIG_NET_NS is
    selected at compile time.

    As this patch introduces network namespace support into code paths
    that exist when the CONFIG_NET is not selected there are a few
    additions made to net_namespace.h to allow a few more functions
    to be used when the networking stack is not compiled in.

  • This patchset moves non-filesystem interfaces of v9fs from fs/9p to net/9p.
    It moves the transport, packet marshalling and connection layers to net/9p
    leaving only the VFS related files in fs/9p. This work is being done in
    preparation for in-kernel 9p servers as well as alternate 9p clients (other
    than VFS).

  • Provide AF_RXRPC sockets that can be used to talk to AFS servers, or serve
    answers to AFS clients. KerberosIV security is fully supported. The patches
    and some example test programs can be found in:

    http://people.redhat.com/~dhowells/rxrpc/

    This will eventually replace the old implementation of kernel-only RxRPC
    currently resident in net/rxrpc/.

  • > the build with the attached .config failed, make ends with:

    It looks like I was stupid and made NetLabel depend on CONFIG_NET and not
    CONFIG_INET, the patch below should fix this by making NetLabel depend on
    CONFIG_INET and CONFIG_SECURITY. Please review and apply for 2.6.19.

  • Add a secmark field to the skbuff structure, to allow security subsystems to
    place security markings on network packets. This is similar to the nfmark
    field, except is intended for implementing security policy, rather than than
    networking policy.

    This patch was already acked in principle by Dave Miller.

  • This adds a new module for tracking TCP state variables non-intrusively
    using kprobes. It has a simple /proc interface that outputs one line
    for each packet received. A sample usage is to collect congestion
    window and ssthresh over time graphs.

  • Development to this point was done on a subversion repository at:

    http://oops.ghostprotocols.net:81/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/dccp-2.6/

    This repository will be kept at this site for the foreseable future,
    so that interested parties can see the history of this code,
    attributions, etc.

    If I ever decide to take this offline I'll provide the full history at
    some other suitable place.

    transport layer for all userspace communication of the new upcoming
    netfilter subsystems, such as ctnetlink, nfnetlink_queue and some day even

  • Put NETCONSOLE and NETPOLL options together since they are related.
    This cuts down on the hassle of flipping back and forth between
    the Networking menu and the Network drivers menu to change their
    config settings.

    Tested with menuconfig, gconfig, and xconfig.
    gconfig has a small problem with this. I think that it's
    a bug in gconfig and I will take it up with Romain Lievin.

  • Move the protocol specific config options out to the specific protocols.
    With this change net/Kconfig now starts to become readable and serve as a
    good basis for further re-structuring.

    The menu structure is left almost intact, except that indention is
    fixed in most cases. Most visible are the INET changes where several
    "depends on INET" are replaced with a single ifdef INET / endif pair.

    Several new files were created to accomplish this change - they are
    small but serve the purpose that config options are now distributed
    out where they belongs.

  • Create a new top-level menu named "Networking" thus moving
    net related options and protocol selection way from the drivers
    menu and up on the top-level where they belong.

    To implement this all architectures has to source "net/Kconfig" before
    drivers/*/Kconfig in their Kconfig file. This change has been
    implemented for all architectures.

    Device drivers for ordinary NIC's are still to be found
    in the Device Drivers section, but Bluetooth, IrDA and ax25
    are located with their corresponding menu entries under the new
    networking menu item.

  • 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!
