      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: Fix sysctl restarts... · 88af182e
      Eric W. Biederman 提交于
      Yuck.  It turns out that when we restart sysctls we were restarting
      with the values already changed.  Which unfortunately meant that
      the second time through we thought there was no change and skipped
      all kinds of work, despite the fact that there was indeed a change.
      
      I have fixed this the simplest way possible by restoring the changed
      values when we restart the sysctl write.
      
      One of my coworkers spotted this bug when after disabling forwarding
      on an interface pings were still forwarded.

      percpu: add __percpu sparse annotations to net · 7d720c3e
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      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 **).

      net neigh: Decouple per interface neighbour table controls from binary sysctls · 54716e3b
      Eric W. Biederman 提交于
      Stop computing the number of neighbour table settings we have by
      counting the number of binary sysctls.  This behaviour was silly
      and meant that we could not add another neighbour table setting
      without also adding another binary sysctl.
      
      Don't pass the binary sysctl path for neighour table entries
      into neigh_sysctl_register.  These parameters are no longer
      used and so are just dead code.

      sysctl net: Remove unused binary sysctl code · f8572d8f
      Eric W. Biederman 提交于
      Now that sys_sysctl is a compatiblity wrapper around /proc/sys
      all sysctl strategy routines, and all ctl_name and strategy
      entries in the sysctl tables are unused, and can be
      revmoed.
      
      In addition neigh_sysctl_register has been modified to no longer
      take a strategy argument and it's callers have been modified not
      to pass one.

      Subject: [PATCH] ipv6: new sysctl for sending TLLAO with unicast NAs
      
      Neighbor advertisements responding to unicast neighbor solicitations
      did not include the target link-layer address option. This patch adds
      a new sysctl option (disabled by default) which controls whether this
      option should be sent even with unicast NAs.
      
      The need for this arose because certain routers expect the TLLAO in
      some situations even as a response to unicast NS packets.
      
      Moreover, RFC 2461 recommends sending this to avoid a race condition
      (section 4.4, Target link-layer address)
