This patch replaces the bunch of arbitrary 64 and 128 bytes alloc_skb() calls
with more accurate allocation sizes.Signed-off-by: Samuel Ortiz

We lock the socket when both releasing and getting a disconnected
notification. In the latter case, we also ste the socket as orphan.
This fixes a potential kernel bug that can be triggered when we get the
disconnection notification before closing the socket.Signed-off-by: Samuel Ortiz

As pointed out by Christoph Hellwig, dev_alloc_skb() is not intended to be
used for allocating TX sk_buff. The IrDA stack was exclusively calling
dev_alloc_skb() on the TX path, and this patch fixes that.Signed-off-by: Samuel Ortiz

Fix kernel oopses whenever somebody issues compatible ioctl on AppleTalk,
Econet, IPX or IRDA socket. For AppleTalk/Econet/IRDA it restores state
in which these sockets were before compat_ioctl was introduced to the socket
ops, for IPX it implements support for 4 ioctls which were not implemented
before - as these ioctls use structures which match between 32bit and 64bit
userspace, no special code is needed, just call 64bit ioctl handler.Signed-off-by: Petr Vandrovec

Currently all network protocols need to call dev_ioctl as the default
fallback in their ioctl implementations. This patch adds a fallback
to dev_ioctl to sock_ioctl if the protocol returned -ENOIOCTLCMD.
This way all the procotol ioctl handlers can be simplified and we don't
need to export dev_ioctl.Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig

I noticed that some of 'struct proto_ops' used in the kernel may share
a cache line used by locks or other heavily modified data. (default
linker alignement is 32 bytes, and L1_CACHE_LINE is 64 or 128 at
least)This patch makes sure a 'struct proto_ops' can be declared as const,
so that all cpus can share all parts of it without false sharing.This is not mandatory : a driver can still use a read/write structure
if it needs to (and eventually a __read_mostly)I made a global stubstitute to change all existing occurences to make
them const.This should reduce the possibility of false sharing on SMP, and
speedup some socket system calls.Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet

It also looks like there were 2 places where the test on sk_err was
missing from the event wait logic (in sk_stream_wait_connect and
sk_stream_wait_memory), while the rest of the sock_error() users look
to be doing the right thing. This version of the patch fixes those,
and cleans up a few places that were testing ->sk_err directly.Signed-off-by: Benjamin LaHaise

Lots of places just needs the states, not even linux/tcp.h, where this
enum was, needs it.This speeds up development of the refactorings as less sources are
rebuilt when things get moved from net/tcp.h.Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

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!
