[NET]: dev_put/dev_hold cleanup

2006-03-21T06:32:28Z

Get rid of the old __dev_put macro that is just a hold over from pre 2.6 kernel. And turn dev_hold into an inline instead of a macro. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[NET]: Change 1500 to ETH_DATA_LEN in some files

2006-01-06T00:48:56Z

These patches add the header linux/if_ether.h and change 1500 to ETH_DATA_LEN in some files. Signed-off-by: Kris Katterjohn Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[INET_SOCK]: Move struct inet_sock & helper functions to net/inet_sock.h

2006-01-03T21:11:21Z

To help in reducing the number of include dependencies, several files were touched as they were getting needed headers indirectly for stuff they use. Thanks also to Alan Menegotto for pointing out that net/dccp/proto.c had linux/dccp.h include twice. Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[IPV4]: Replace __in_dev_get with __in_dev_get_rcu/rtnl

2005-10-03T21:35:55Z

The following patch renames __in_dev_get() to __in_dev_get_rtnl() and introduces __in_dev_get_rcu() to cover the second case. 1) RCU with refcnt should use in_dev_get(). 2) RCU without refcnt should use __in_dev_get_rcu(). 3) All others must hold RTNL and use __in_dev_get_rtnl(). There is one exception in net/ipv4/route.c which is in fact a pre-existing race condition. I've marked it as such so that we remember to fix it. This patch is based on suggestions and prior work by Suzanne Wood and Paul McKenney. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[NET]: use __read_mostly on kmem_cache_t , DEFINE_SNMP_STAT pointers

2005-08-29T23:11:18Z

This patch puts mostly read only data in the right section (read_mostly), to help sharing of these data between CPUS without memory ping pongs. On one of my production machine, tcp_statistics was sitting in a heavily modified cache line, so *every* SNMP update had to force a reload. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[NET]: Spelling mistakes threshoulds -> thresholds

[NETLINK]: Missing initializations in dumped data

2005-06-28T19:55:30Z

Mostly missing initialization of padding fields of 1 or 2 bytes length, two instances of uninitialized nlmsgerr->msg of 16 bytes length. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[NETFILTER]: Drop conntrack reference in ip_call_ra_chain()/ip_mr_input()

2005-06-21T21:06:24Z
