      net: delete all instances of special processing for token ring · 211ed865
      Paul Gortmaker 提交于
      We are going to delete the Token ring support.  This removes any
      special processing in the core networking for token ring, (aside
      from net/tr.c itself), leaving the drivers and remaining tokenring
      support present but inert.
      
      The mass removal of the drivers and net/tr.c will be in a separate
      commit, so that the history of these files that we still care
      about won't have the giant deletion tied into their history.

      ipx: remove the BKL · b0d0d915
      Arnd Bergmann 提交于
      This replaces all instances of lock_kernel in the
      IPX code with lock_sock. As far as I can tell, this
      is safe to do, because there is no global state
      that needs to be locked in IPX, and the code does
      not recursively take the lock or sleep indefinitely
      while holding it.
      
      Compile-tested only.

      BKL: introduce CONFIG_BKL. · 6de5bd12
      Arnd Bergmann 提交于
      With all the patches we have queued in the BKL removal tree, only a
      few dozen modules are left that actually rely on the BKL, and even
      there are lots of low-hanging fruit. We need to decide what to do
      about them, this patch illustrates one of the options:
      
      Every user of the BKL is marked as 'depends on BKL' in Kconfig,
      and the CONFIG_BKL becomes a user-visible option. If it gets
      disabled, no BKL using module can be built any more and the BKL
      code itself is compiled out.
      
      The one exception is file locking, which is practically always
      enabled and does a 'select BKL' instead. This effectively forces
      CONFIG_BKL to be enabled until we have solved the fs/lockd
      mess and can apply the patch that removes the BKL from fs/locks.c.

      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking... · 5a0e3ad6
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
      
      percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
      included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
      in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
      universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
      
      percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
      this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
      headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
      needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
      used as the basis of conversion.
      
        http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
      
      The script does the followings.
      
      * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
        only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
        gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
      
      * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
        blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
        to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
        core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
        alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
        doesn't seem to be any matching order.
      
      * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
        because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
        an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
        file.
      
      The conversion was done in the following steps.
      
      1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
         over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
         and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
         files.
      
      2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
         some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
         embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
         inclusions to around 150 files.
      
      3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
         from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
      
      4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
         e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
         APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
      
      5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
         editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
         files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
         inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
         wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
         slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
         necessary.
      
      6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
      
      7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
         were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
         distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
         more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
         build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
      
         * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
         * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
         * s390 SMP allmodconfig
         * alpha SMP allmodconfig
         * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
      
      8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
         a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
      
      Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
      6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
      If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
      headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
      the specific arch.

      [NET]: Make the device list and device lookups per namespace. · 881d966b
      Eric W. Biederman 提交于
      This patch makes most of the generic device layer network
      namespace safe.  This patch makes dev_base_head a
      network namespace variable, and then it picks up
      a few associated variables.  The functions:
      dev_getbyhwaddr
      dev_getfirsthwbytype
      dev_get_by_flags
      dev_get_by_name
      __dev_get_by_name
      dev_get_by_index
      __dev_get_by_index
      dev_ioctl
      dev_ethtool
      dev_load
      wireless_process_ioctl
      
      were modified to take a network namespace argument, and
      deal with it.
      
      vlan_ioctl_set and brioctl_set were modified so their
      hooks will receive a network namespace argument.
      
      So basically anthing in the core of the network stack that was
      affected to by the change of dev_base was modified to handle
      multiple network namespaces.  The rest of the network stack was
      simply modified to explicitly use &init_net the initial network
      namespace.  This can be fixed when those components of the network
      stack are modified to handle multiple network namespaces.
      
      For now the ifindex generator is left global.
      
      Fundametally ifindex numbers are per namespace, or else
      we will have corner case problems with migration when
      we get that far.
      
      At the same time there are assumptions in the network stack
      that the ifindex of a network device won't change.  Making
      the ifindex number global seems a good compromise until
      the network stack can cope with ifindex changes when
      you change namespaces, and the like.

      [NET]: Make device event notification network namespace safe · e9dc8653
      Eric W. Biederman 提交于
      Every user of the network device notifiers is either a protocol
      stack or a pseudo device.  If a protocol stack that does not have
      support for multiple network namespaces receives an event for a
      device that is not in the initial network namespace it quite possibly
      can get confused and do the wrong thing.
      
      To avoid problems until all of the protocol stacks are converted
      this patch modifies all netdev event handlers to ignore events on
      devices that are not in the initial network namespace.
      
      As the rest of the code is made network namespace aware these
      checks can be removed.

      [NET]: Make socket creation namespace safe. · 1b8d7ae4
      Eric W. Biederman 提交于
      This patch passes in the namespace a new socket should be created in
      and has the socket code do the appropriate reference counting.  By
      virtue of this all socket create methods are touched.  In addition
      the socket create methods are modified so that they will fail if
      you attempt to create a socket in a non-default network namespace.
      
      Failing if we attempt to create a socket outside of the default
      network namespace ensures that as we incrementally make the network stack
      network namespace aware we will not export functionality that someone
      has not audited and made certain is network namespace safe.
      Allowing us to partially enable network namespaces before all of the
      exotic protocols are supported.
      
      Any protocol layers I have missed will fail to compile because I now
      pass an extra parameter into the socket creation code.

      [NET]: Make /proc/net per network namespace · 457c4cbc
      Eric W. Biederman 提交于
      This patch makes /proc/net per network namespace.  It modifies the global
      variables proc_net and proc_net_stat to be per network namespace.
      The proc_net file helpers are modified to take a network namespace argument,
      and all of their callers are fixed to pass &init_net for that argument.
      This ensures that all of the /proc/net files are only visible and
      usable in the initial network namespace until the code behind them
      has been updated to be handle multiple network namespaces.
      
      Making /proc/net per namespace is necessary as at least some files
      in /proc/net depend upon the set of network devices which is per
      network namespace, and even more files in /proc/net have contents
      that are relevant to a single network namespace.

      [NET]: convert network timestamps to ktime_t · b7aa0bf7
      Eric Dumazet 提交于
      We currently use a special structure (struct skb_timeval) and plain
      'struct timeval' to store packet timestamps in sk_buffs and struct
      sock.
      
      This has some drawbacks :
      - Fixed resolution of micro second.
      - Waste of space on 64bit platforms where sizeof(struct timeval)=16
      
      I suggest using ktime_t that is a nice abstraction of high resolution
      time services, currently capable of nanosecond resolution.
      
      As sizeof(ktime_t) is 8 bytes, using ktime_t in 'struct sock' permits
      a 8 byte shrink of this structure on 64bit architectures. Some other
      structures also benefit from this size reduction (struct ipq in
      ipv4/ip_fragment.c, struct frag_queue in ipv6/reassembly.c, ...)
      
      Once this ktime infrastructure adopted, we can more easily provide
      nanosecond resolution on top of it. (ioctl SIOCGSTAMPNS and/or
      SO_TIMESTAMPNS/SCM_TIMESTAMPNS)
      
      Note : this patch includes a bug correction in
      compat_sock_get_timestamp() where a "err = 0;" was missing (so this
      syscall returned -ENOENT instead of 0)
