ipv4: Disallow non-namespace aware protocols to register.

2013-02-05T19:42:23Z

All in-tree ipv4 protocol implementations are now namespace aware. Therefore all the run-time checks are superfluous. Reject registry of any non-namespace aware ipv4 protocol. Eventually we'll remove prot->netns_ok and this registry time check as well. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: Add net protocol offload registration infrustructure

2012-11-15T22:36:17Z

Create a new data structure for IPv4 protocols that holds GRO/GSO callbacks and a new array to track the protocols that register GRO/GSO. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

inet: Sanitize inet{,6} protocol demux.

2012-06-20T01:56:21Z

Don't pretend that inet_protos[] and inet6_protos[] are hashes, thay are just a straight arrays. Remove all unnecessary hash masking. Document MAX_INET_PROTOS. Use RAW_HTABLE_SIZE when appropriate. Reported-by: Ben Hutchings Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: add __rcu annotations to protocol

2010-10-27T18:37:31Z

Add __rcu annotations to : struct net_protocol *inet_protos struct net_protocol *inet6_protos And use appropriate casts to reduce sparse warnings if CONFIG_SPARSE_RCU_POINTER=y Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: inet_add_protocol() can use cmpxchg()

2010-09-09T04:31:35Z

Use cmpxchg() to get rid of spinlocks in inet_add_protocol() and friends. inet_protos[] & inet6_protos[] are moved to read_mostly section Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net/ipv4: EXPORT_SYMBOL cleanups

2010-07-12T19:57:54Z

CodingStyle cleanups EXPORT_SYMBOL should immediately follow the symbol declaration. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[IPV4]: align inet_protos[] on SMP

2007-04-26T05:28:20Z

As IPPROTO_TCP is 6, it makes sense to make sure inet_protos[] array is properly cache line aligned to avoid false sharing on SMP. c0680540 b peer_total c0680544 b inet_peer_unused_head c0680560 B inet_protos On i386 this example, we can see that inet_protos[IPPROTO_TCP] shares a potentially hot (and modified) cache line.
