      [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.

      [PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.h · cd354f1a
      Tim Schmielau 提交于
      After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
      recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
      There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
      anything defined in there.  Presumably these includes were once needed for
      macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
      course of cleaning it up.
      
      To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
      removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.
      
      Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
      arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
      allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all
      configs in arch/arm/configs on arm.  I also checked that no new warnings were
      introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
      by unnecessarily included header files).

      [NET_SCHED]: Fix fallout from dev->qdisc RCU change · 85670cc1
      Patrick McHardy 提交于
      The move of qdisc destruction to a rcu callback broke locking in the
      entire qdisc layer by invalidating previously valid assumptions about
      the context in which changes to the qdisc tree occur.
      
      The two assumptions were:
      
      - since changes only happen in process context, read_lock doesn't need
        bottem half protection. Now invalid since destruction of inner qdiscs,
        classifiers, actions and estimators happens in the RCU callback unless
        they're manually deleted, resulting in dead-locks when read_lock in
        process context is interrupted by write_lock_bh in bottem half context.
      
      - since changes only happen under the RTNL, no additional locking is
        necessary for data not used during packet processing (f.e. u32_list).
        Again, since destruction now happens in the RCU callback, this assumption
        is not valid anymore, causing races while using this data, which can
        result in corruption or use-after-free.
      
      Instead of "fixing" this by disabling bottem halfs everywhere and adding
      new locks/refcounting, this patch makes these assumptions valid again by
      moving destruction back to process context. Since only the dev->qdisc
      pointer is protected by RCU, but ->enqueue and the qdisc tree are still
      protected by dev->qdisc_lock, destruction of the tree can be performed
      immediately and only the final free needs to happen in the rcu callback
      to make sure dev_queue_xmit doesn't access already freed memory.

      Linux-2.6.12-rc2 · 1da177e4
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      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!
