  • Receiving VLAN packets over a device (without VLAN assist) that is
    doing hardware checksumming (CHECKSUM_HW), causes errors because the
    VLAN code forgets to adjust the hardware checksum.

  • 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.

  • OK, I can see what's happening here. eth0 doesn't detect link-up until
    after a few seconds, so when the vlan interface is opened immediately
    after eth0 has been opened, it inherits the link-down state. Subsequently
    the vlan interface is never properly activated and are thus unable to
    transmit any packets.

    dev->state bits are not supposed to be manipulated directly. Something
    similar is probably needed for the netif_device_present() bit, although
    I don't know how this is meant to work for a virtual device.

  • 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.

  • There were still a few comments left refering to verify_area, and two
    functions, verify_area_skas & verify_area_tt that just wrap corresponding
    access_ok_skas & access_ok_tt functions, just like verify_area does for
    access_ok - deprecate those.

    There was also a few places that still used verify_area in commented-out
    code, fix those up to use access_ok.

    After applying this one there should not be anything left but finally
    removing verify_area completely, which will happen after a kernel release
    or two.

  • 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!
