Need to check some more cases in IPX receive. If the skb is purely
fragments, the IPX header needs to be extracted. The function
pskb_may_pull() may in theory invalidate all the pointers in the skb,
so references to ipx header must be refreshed.Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger

This patch will linearize and check there is enough data.
It handles the pprop case as well as avoiding a whole audit of
the routing code.Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger

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

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

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.Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

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!
