2009-02-26sysctl: fix sparse warning: Should it be static?Hannes Eder
Impact: Include header file. Fix this sparse warning: net/core/sysctl_net_core.c:123:32: warning: symbol 'net_core_path' was not declared. Should it be static? Signed-off-by: Hannes Eder <hannes@hanneseder.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-11-25netns xfrm: per-netns sysctlsAlexey Dobriyan
Make net.core.xfrm_aevent_etime net.core.xfrm_acq_expires net.core.xfrm_aevent_rseqth net.core.xfrm_larval_drop sysctls per-netns. For that make net_core_path[] global, register it to prevent two /proc/net/core antries and change initcall position -- xfrm_init() is called from fs_initcall, so this one should be fs_initcall at least.

2008-11-03net: '&' reduxAlexey Dobriyan
I want to compile out proc_* and sysctl_* handlers totally and stub them to NULL depending on config options, however usage of & will prevent this, since taking adress of NULL pointer will break compilation. So, drop & in front of every ->proc_handler and every ->strategy handler, it was never needed in fact. Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-07-25printk ratelimiting rewriteDave Young
All ratelimit user use same jiffies and burst params, so some messages (callbacks) will be lost. For example: a call printk_ratelimit(5 * HZ, 1) b call printk_ratelimit(5 * HZ, 1) before the 5*HZ timeout of a, then b will will be supressed. - rewrite __ratelimit, and use a ratelimit_state as parameter. Thanks for hints from andrew. - Add WARN_ON_RATELIMIT, update rcupreempt.h - remove __printk_ratelimit - use __ratelimit in net_ratelimit Signed-off-by: Dave Young <hidave.darkstar@gmail.com> Cc: "David S.

2008-05-19netns: Register net/core/ sysctls at read-only root.Pavel Emelyanov
Most of the net/core/xxx sysctls are read-only now, but this goal is achieved with excessive memory consumption in each namespace - the whole table is cloned and most of the entries in it are ~= 0222. Split it into two parts and register (the largest) one at the read-only root. Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-03-31[NETNS]: Introduce a netns_core structure.Pavel Emelyanov
There's already some stuff on the struct net, that should better be folded into netns_core structure. I'm making the per-proto inuse counter be per-net also, which is also a candidate for this, so introduce this structure and populate it a bit.

2008-01-28[NET] sysctl: make sysctl_somaxconn per-namespacePavel Emelyanov
Just move the variable on the struct net and adjust its usage. Others sysctls from sys.net.core table are more difficult to virtualize (i.e. make them per-namespace), but I'll look at them as well a bit later.

2008-01-28[NET] sysctl: prepare core tables to point to netns variablesPavel Emelyanov
Some of ctl variables are going to be on the struct net. Here's the way to adjust the ->data pointer on the ctl_table-s to point on the right variable. Since some pointers still point on the global variables, I keep turning the write bits off on such tables. This looks to become a common procedure for net sysctls, so later parts of this code may migrate to some more generic place. Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-01-28[NET] sysctl: make the sys.net.core sysctls per-namespacePavel Emelyanov
Making them per-namespace is required for the following two reasons: First, some ctl values have a per-namespace meaning. Second, making them writable from the sub-namespace is an isolation hole. So I introduce the pernet operations to create these tables. For init_net I use the existing statically declared tables, for sub-namespace they are duplicated and the write bits are removed from the mode.

2008-01-28[NET]: Isolate the net/core/ sysctl tablePavel Emelyanov
Using ctl paths we can put all the stuff, related to net/core/ sysctl table, into one file and remove all the references on it. As a good side effect this hides the "core_table" name from the global scope :) Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-01-28[NET]: Remove unneeded ifdefs from sysctl_net_core.cPavel Emelyanov
This file is already compiled out when the SYSCTL=n, so these ifdefs, that enclose the whole file, can be removed. Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2007-10-23[NET]: Don't declare extern variables in net/core/sysctl_net_core.cPavel Emelyanov
Some are already declared in include/linux/netdevice.h, while some others (xfrm ones) need to be declared. The driver/net/rrunner.c just uses same extern as well, so cleanup it also. Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2007-05-24[XFRM]: Allow packet drops during larval state resolution.David S. Miller
The current IPSEC rule resolution behavior we have does not work for a lot of people, even though technically it's an improvement from the -EAGAIN buisness we had before. Right now we'll block until the key manager resolves the route. That works for simple cases, but many folks would rather packets get silently dropped until the key manager resolves the IPSEC rules. We can't tell these folks to "set the socket non-blocking" because they don't have control over the non-block setting of things like the sockets used to resolve DNS deep inside of the resolver libraries in libc. With that in mind I coded up the patch below with some help from Herbert Xu which provides packet-drop behavior during larval state resolution, controllable via sysctl and off by default. This lays the framework to either: 1) Make this default at some point or... 2) Move this logic into xfrm{4,6}_policy.c and implement the ARP-like resolution queue we've all been dreaming of. The idea would be to queue packets to the policy, then once the larval state is resolved by the key manager we re-resolve the route and push the packets out. The packets would timeout if the rule didn't get resolved in a certain amount of time. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2005-06-23[NET]: Separate two usages of netdev_max_backlog.Stephen Hemminger
Separate out the two uses of netdev_max_backlog. One controls the upper bound on packets processed per softirq, the new name for this is netdev_budget; the other controls the limit on packets queued via netif_rx. Increase the max_backlog default to account for faster processors. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2005-06-23[NET]: Remove obsolete netif_rx congestion sensing mechanism.Stephen Hemminger
Remove the congestion sensing mechanism from netif_rx, and always return either full or empty. Almost no driver checks the return value from netif_rx, and those that do only use it for debug messages. The original design of netif_rx was to do flow control based on the receive queue, but NAPI has supplanted this and no driver uses the feedback.

2005-06-23[PATCH] create a kstrdup library functionPaulo Marques
This patch creates a new kstrdup library function and changes the "local" implementations in several places to use this function. Most of the changes come from the sound and net subsystems. The sound part had already been acknowledged by Takashi Iwai and the net part by David S. Miller. I left UML alone for now because I would need more time to read the code carefully before making changes there.

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds
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!
