net: Add export.h for EXPORT_SYMBOL/THIS_MODULE to non-modules

2011-10-31T23:30:30Z

These files are non modular, but need to export symbols using the macros now living in export.h -- call out the include so that things won't break when we remove the implicit presence of module.h from everywhere. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker

ipv6: reduce per device ICMP mib sizes

2011-05-19T20:21:22Z

ipv6 has per device ICMP SNMP counters, taking too much space because they use percpu storage. needed size per device is : (512+4)*sizeof(long)*number_of_possible_cpus*2 On a 32bit kernel, 16 possible cpus, this wastes more than 64kbytes of memory per ipv6 enabled network device, taken in vmalloc pool. Since ICMP messages are rare, just use shared counters (atomic_long_t) Per network space ICMP counters are still using percpu memory, we might also convert them to shared counters in a future patch.

ipv6/udp: report SndbufErrors and RcvbufErrors

snmp: 64bit ipstats_mib for all arches

2010-06-30T20:31:19Z

/proc/net/snmp and /proc/net/netstat expose SNMP counters. Width of these counters is either 32 or 64 bits, depending on the size of "unsigned long" in kernel. This means user program parsing these files must already be prepared to deal with 64bit values, regardless of user program being 32 or 64 bit. This patch introduces 64bit snmp values for IPSTAT mib, where some counters can wrap pretty fast if they are 32bit wide. # netstat -s|egrep "InOctets|OutOctets" InOctets: 244068329096 OutOctets: 244069348848 Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S.

net: Remove unnecessary returns from void function()s

2010-05-18T06:23:14Z

This patch removes from net/ (but not any netfilter files) all the unnecessary return; statements that precede the last closing brace of void functions. It does not remove the returns that are immediately preceded by a label as gcc doesn't like that. Done via: $ grep -rP --include=*.[ch] -l "return;\n}" net/ | \ xargs perl -i -e 'local $/ ; while (<>) { s/\n[ \t\n]+return;\n}/\n}/g; print; }' Signed-off-by: Joe Perches Signed-off-by: David S.

icmp: Account for ICMP out errors

2010-04-03T22:09:04Z

When ip_append() fails because of socket limit or memory shortage, increment ICMP_MIB_OUTERRORS counter, so that "netstat -s" can report these errors. LANG=C netstat -s | grep "ICMP messages failed" 0 ICMP messages failed For IPV6, implement ICMP6_MIB_OUTERRORS counter as well. # grep Icmp6OutErrors /proc/net/dev_snmp6/* /proc/net/dev_snmp6/eth0:Icmp6OutErrors 0 /proc/net/dev_snmp6/lo:Icmp6OutErrors 0 Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S.

percpu: add __percpu sparse annotations to net

2010-02-17T07:05:38Z

Add __percpu sparse annotations to net. These annotations are to make sparse consider percpu variables to be in a different address space and warn if accessed without going through percpu accessors. This patch doesn't affect normal builds. The macro and type tricks around snmp stats make things a bit interesting. DEFINE/DECLARE_SNMP_STAT() macros mark the target field as __percpu and SNMP_UPD_PO_STATS() macro is updated accordingly. All snmp_mib_*() users which used to cast the argument to (void **) are updated to cast it to (void __percpu **). Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo Acked-by: David S.

net: spread __net_init, __net_exit

2010-01-18T03:16:02Z

__net_init/__net_exit are apparently not going away, so use them to full extent. In some cases __net_init was removed, because it was called from __net_exit code. Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

NET: ipv6, remove unnecessary check

2010-01-10T21:27:57Z

Stanse found a potential null dereference in snmp6_unregister_dev. There is a check for idev being NULL, but it is dereferenced earlier. But idev cannot be NULL when passed to snmp6_unregister_dev, so remove the test. Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby Cc: "David S.
