  • 543537bd9   [PATCH] create a kstrdup library function ... Browse Code »

    This patch creates a new kstrdup library function and changes the "local"
    implementations in several places to use this function.

    Most of the changes come from the sound and net subsystems. The sound part
    had already been acknowledged by Takashi Iwai and the net part by David S.
    Miller.

    I left UML alone for now because I would need more time to read the code
    carefully before making changes there.

  • b6544c0b4   [NETLINK]: Correctly set NLM_F_MULTI without checking the pid ... Browse Code »

    This patch rectifies some rtnetlink message builders that derive the
    flags from the pid. It is now explicit like the other cases
    which get it right. Also fixes half a dozen dumpers which did not
    set NLM_F_MULTI at all.

  • 1797754ea   [NETLINK]: Introduce NLMSG_NEW macro to better handle netlink flags ... Browse Code »

    Introduces a new macro NLMSG_NEW which extends NLMSG_PUT but takes
    a flags argument. NLMSG_PUT stays there for compatibility but now
    calls NLMSG_NEW with flags == 0. NLMSG_PUT_ANSWER is renamed to
    NLMSG_NEW_ANSWER which now also takes a flags argument.

    Also converts the users of NLMSG_PUT_ANSWER to use NLMSG_NEW_ANSWER
    and fixes the two direct users of __nlmsg_put to either provide
    the flags or use NLMSG_NEW(_ANSWER).

  • c7fb64db0   [NETLINK]: Neighbour table configuration and statistics via rtnetlink ... Browse Code »

    To retrieve the neighbour tables send RTM_GETNEIGHTBL with the
    NLM_F_DUMP flag set. Every neighbour table configuration is
    spread over multiple messages to avoid running into message
    size limits on systems with many interfaces. The first message
    in the sequence transports all not device specific data such as
    statistics, configuration, and the default parameter set.
    This message is followed by 0..n messages carrying device
    specific parameter sets.

    Although the ordering should be sufficient, NDTA_NAME can be
    used to identify sequences. The initial message can be identified
    by checking for NDTA_CONFIG. The device specific messages do
    not contain this TLV but have NDTPA_IFINDEX set to the
    corresponding interface index.

    To change neighbour table attributes, send RTM_SETNEIGHTBL
    with NDTA_NAME set. Changeable attribute include NDTA_THRESH[1-3],
    NDTA_GC_INTERVAL, and all TLVs in NDTA_PARMS unless marked
    otherwise. Device specific parameter sets can be changed by
    setting NDTPA_IFINDEX to the interface index of the corresponding
    device.

    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!
