net: Kill dev_rebuild_header

2015-03-02T21:43:41Z

Now that there are no more users kill dev_rebuild_header and all of it's implementations. This is long overdue. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: set name_assign_type in alloc_netdev()

2014-07-15T23:12:48Z

Extend alloc_netdev{,_mq{,s}}() to take name_assign_type as argument, and convert all users to pass NET_NAME_UNKNOWN.

neigh: use NEIGH_VAR_INIT in ndo_neigh_setup functions.

2014-01-16T19:31:58Z

When ndo_neigh_setup is called, the bitfield used by NEIGH_VAR_SET is not initialized yet. This might cause confusion for the people who use NEIGH_VAR_SET in ndo_neigh_setup. So rather introduce NEIGH_VAR_INIT for usage in ndo_neigh_setup. Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: replace macros net_random and net_srandom with direct calls to prandom

2014-01-14T23:15:25Z

This patch removes the net_random and net_srandom macros and replaces them with direct calls to the prandom ones. As new commits only seem to use prandom_u32 there is no use to keep them around. This change makes it easier to grep for users of prandom_u32. Signed-off-by: Aruna-Hewapathirane Suggested-by: Hannes Frederic Sowa Acked-by: Hannes Frederic Sowa Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

neigh: convert parms to an array

2013-12-10T01:56:12Z

This patch converts the neigh param members to an array. This allows easier manipulation which will be needed later on to provide better management of default values. Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

mrp: add periodictimer to allow retries when packets get lost

2013-09-23T20:53:52Z

MRP doesn't implement the periodictimer in 802.1Q, so it never retries if packets get lost. I ran into this problem when MRP sent a MVRP JoinIn before the interface was fully up. The JoinIn was lost, MRP didn't retry, and MVRP registration failed. Tested against Juniper QFabric switches Signed-off-by: Noel Burton-Krahn Acked-by: David Ward Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

The be2net driver had a bug fix in 'net' that overlapped with the VLAN interface changes by Patrick McHardy in net-next. An IGB conflict existed because in 'net' the build_skb() support was reverted, and in 'net-next' there was a comment style fix within that code. Several batman-adv conflicts were resolved by making sure that all calls to batadv_is_my_mac() are changed to have a new bat_priv first argument. Eric Dumazet's TS ECR fix in TCP in 'net' conflicted with the F-RTO rewrite in 'net-next', mostly overlapping changes. Thanks to Stephen Rothwell and Antonio Quartulli for help with several of these merge resolutions. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net/802/mrp: fix possible race condition when calling mrp_pdu_queue()

2013-04-12T19:10:48Z

(Adapted from a very similar change to net/802/garp.c by Cong Wang.) mrp_pdu_queue() should ways be called with the applicant spin lock. mrp_uninit_applicant() only holds the rtnl lock which is not enough; a race is possible because mrp_rcv() is called in BH context: mrp_rcv() |->mrp_pdu_parse_msg() |->mrp_pdu_parse_vecattr() |->mrp_pdu_parse_vecattr_event() |-> mrp_attr_event() |-> mrp_pdu_append_vecattr_event() |-> mrp_pdu_queue() Cc: Cong Wang Cc: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David Ward Acked-by: Cong Wang Signed-off-by: David S.

802: fix a possible race condition

2013-04-07T21:04:17Z

(Resend with a better changelog) garp_pdu_queue() should ways be called with this spin lock. garp_uninit_applicant() only holds rtnl lock which is not enough here. A possible race can happen as garp_pdu_rcv() is called in BH context: garp_pdu_rcv() |->garp_pdu_parse_msg() |->garp_pdu_parse_attr() |-> garp_gid_event() Found by code inspection.
