2006-01-05[NETFILTER]: make ipv6_find_hdr() find transport protocol headerPatrick McHardy
The original ipv6_find_hdr() finds the specified header in IPv6 packets. This makes it possible to get transport header so that we can kill similar loop in ip6_match_packet(). Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2006-01-04[PATCH] Input: add modalias supportRusty Russell
Here's the patch for modalias support for input classes. It uses comma-separated numbers, and doesn't describe all the potential keys (no module currently cares, and that would make the strings huge). The changes to input.h are to move the definitions needed by file2alias outside __KERNEL__. I chose not to move those definitions to mod_devicetable.h, because there are so many that it might break compile of something else in the kernel. The rest is fairly straightforward.

2006-01-04[PATCH] driver core: replace "hotplug" by "uevent"Kay Sievers
Leave the overloaded "hotplug" word to susbsystems which are handling real devices. The driver core does not "plug" anything, it just exports the state to userspace and generates events. Signed-off-by: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2006-01-04[PATCH] merge kobject_uevent and kobject_hotplugKay Sievers
The distinction between hotplug and uevent does not make sense these days, netlink events are the default. udev depends entirely on netlink uevents. Only during early boot and in initramfs, /sbin/hotplug is needed. So merge the two functions and provide only one interface without all the options. The netlink layer got a nice generic interface with named slots recently, which is probably a better facility to plug events for subsystem specific events. Also the new poll() interface to /proc/mounts is a nicer way to notify about changes than sending events through the core. The uevents should only be used for driver core related requests to userspace now. Signed-off-by: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2006-01-04[PATCH] remove mount/umount uevents from superblock handlingKay Sievers
The names of these events have been confusing from the beginning on, as they have been more like claim/release events. We needed these events for noticing HAL if storage devices have been mounted. Thanks to Al, we have the proper solution now and can poll() /proc/mounts instead to get notfied about mount tree changes.

2006-01-04[PATCH] remove CONFIG_KOBJECT_UEVENT optionKay Sievers

2006-01-04[PATCH] USB Storage: add alauda supportMatthew Dharm
This patch adds another usb-storage subdriver, which supports two fairly old dual-XD/SmartMedia reader-writers (USB1.1 devices). This driver was written by Daniel Drake <dsd@gentoo.org> -- he notes that he wrote this driver without specs, however a vendor-supplied GPL driver for the previous generation of products ("sma03") did prove to be quite useful, as did the sddr09 driver which also has to deal with low-level physical block layout on SmartMedia. The original patch has been reformed by me, as it clashed with the libusual patches. We really need to consolidate some of this common SmartMedia code, and get together with the MTD guys to share it with them as well.

2006-01-04[PATCH] USB: Store port number in usb_deviceAlan Stern
This patch (as610) adds a field to struct usb_device to store the device's port number. This allows us to remove several loops in the hub driver (searching for a particular device among all the entries in the parent's array of children). Signed-off-by: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2006-01-04[PATCH] USB: Consider power budget when choosing configurationAlan Stern
This patch (as609) changes the way we keep track of power budgeting for USB hubs and devices, and it updates the choose_configuration routine to take this information into account. (This is something we should have been doing all along.) A new field in struct usb_device holds the amount of bus current available from the upstream port, and the usb_hub structure keeps track of the current available for each downstream port. Two new rules for configuration selection are added: Don't select a self-powered configuration when only bus power is available. Don't select a configuration requiring more bus power than is available. However the first rule is #if-ed out, because I found that the internal hub in my HP USB keyboard claims that its only configuration is self-powered. The rule would prevent the configuration from being chosen, leaving the hub & keyboard unconfigured. Since similar descriptor errors may turn out to be fairly common, it seemed wise not to include a rule that would break automatic configuration unnecessarily for such devices. The second rule may also trigger unnecessarily, although this should be less common. More likely it will annoy people by sometimes failing to accept configurations that should never have been chosen in the first place. The patch also changes usbcore's reaction when no configuration is suitable. Instead of raising an error and rejecting the device, now the core will simply leave the device unconfigured. People can always work around such problems by installing configurations manually through sysfs.

2006-01-04[PATCH] USB: Remove USB private semaphoreAlan Stern
This patch (as605) removes the private udev->serialize semaphore, relying instead on the locking provided by the embedded struct device's semaphore. The changes are confined to the core, except that the usb_trylock_device routine now uses the return convention of down_trylock rather than down_read_trylock (they return opposite values for no good reason). A couple of other associated changes are included as well: Now that we aren't concerned about HCDs that avoid using the hcd glue layer, usb_disconnect no longer needs to acquire the usb_bus_lock -- that can be done by usb_remove_hcd where it belongs. Devices aren't locked over the same scope of code in usb_new_device and hub_port_connect_change as they used to be. This shouldn't cause any trouble. Along with the preceding driver core patch, this needs a lot of testing. Signed-off-by: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2006-01-04[PATCH] USB: remove .owner field from struct usb_driverGreg Kroah-Hartman
It is no longer needed, so let's remove it, saving a bit of memory. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2006-01-04[PATCH] USB: make registering a usb driver automatically set the module ownerGreg Kroah-Hartman
This fixes the driver that forgot to set the module owner up. Now we can remove the unneeded pointer from the usb driver structure. The idea for how to do this was from Al Viro, who did this for the PCI drivers. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2006-01-04[PATCH] USB: allow usb drivers to disable dynamic idsGreg Kroah-Hartman
This lets drivers, like the usb-serial ones, disable the ability to add ids from sysfs. The usb-serial drivers are "odd" in that they are really usb-serial bus drivers, not usb bus drivers, so the dynamic id logic will have to go into the usb-serial bus core for those drivers to get that ability. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2006-01-04[PATCH] USB: add dynamic id functionality to USB coreGreg Kroah-Hartman
Echo the usb vendor and product id to the "new_id" file in the driver's sysfs directory, and then that driver will be able to bind to a device with those ids if it is present. Example: echo 0557 2008 > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/foo_driver/new_id adds the hex values 0557 and 2008 to the device id table for the foo_driver. Note, usb-serial drivers do not currently work with this capability yet. usb-storage also might have some oddities. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2006-01-04[PATCH] USB: drivers/usb/storage/libusualPete Zaitcev

2006-01-03[NET]: Don't exclude broadcast addresses from is_multicast_ether_addr()Stephen Hemminger
The check for multicast shouldn't exclude broadcast type addresses. This reverts the incorrect change done in 2.6.13.

2006-01-03[NET]: Speed up __alloc_skb()Benjamin LaHaise
From: Benjamin LaHaise <bcrl@kvack.org> In __alloc_skb(), the use of skb_shinfo() which casts a u8 * to the shared info structure results in gcc being forced to do a reload of the pointer since it has no information on possible aliasing. Fix this by using a pointer to refer to skb_shared_info. By initializing skb_shared_info sequentially, the write combining buffers can reduce the number of memory transactions to a single write. Reorder the initialization in __alloc_skb() to match the structure definition. There is also an alignment issue on 64 bit systems with skb_shared_info by converting nr_frags to a short everything packs up nicely. Also, pass the slab cache pointer according to the fclone flag instead of using two almost identical function calls. This raises bw_unix performance up to a peak of 707KB/s when combined with the spinlock patch. It should help other networking protocols, too. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2006-01-03[PPPOX]: Fix assignment into const proto_ops.David S. Miller

2006-01-03[NET]: move struct proto_ops to constEric Dumazet
I noticed that some of 'struct proto_ops' used in the kernel may share a cache line used by locks or other heavily modified data. (default linker alignement is 32 bytes, and L1_CACHE_LINE is 64 or 128 at least) This patch makes sure a 'struct proto_ops' can be declared as const, so that all cpus can share all parts of it without false sharing. This is not mandatory : a driver can still use a read/write structure if it needs to (and eventually a __read_mostly) I made a global stubstitute to change all existing occurences to make them const. This should reduce the possibility of false sharing on SMP, and speedup some socket system calls. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2006-01-03[PKT_SCHED] netem: packet corruption optionStephen Hemminger
Here is a new feature for netem in 2.6.16. It adds the ability to randomly corrupt packets with netem. A version was done by Hagen Paul Pfeifer, but I redid it to handle the cases of backwards compatibility with netlink interface and presence of hardware checksum offload.

2006-01-03[IP_SOCKGLUE]: Remove most of the tcp specific callsArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
As DCCP needs to be called in the same spots. Now we have a member in inet_sock (is_icsk), set at sock creation time from struct inet_protosw->flags (if INET_PROTOSW_ICSK is set, like for TCP and DCCP) to see if a struct sock instance is a inet_connection_sock for places like the ones in ip_sockglue.c (v4 and v6) where we previously were looking if sk_type was SOCK_STREAM, that is insufficient because we now use the same code for DCCP, that has sk_type SOCK_DCCP.

2006-01-03[TWSK]: Introduce struct timewait_sock_opsArnaldo Carvalho de Melo

2006-01-03[IPV6]: Introduce inet6_timewait_sockArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Out of tcp6_timewait_sock, that now is just an aggregation of inet_timewait_sock and inet6_timewait_sock, using tw_ipv6_offset in struct inet_timewait_sock, that is common to the IPv6 transport protocols that use timewait sockets, like DCCP and TCP. tw_ipv6_offset plays the struct inet_sock pinfo6 role, i.e. for the generic code to find the IPv6 area in a timewait sock.

2006-01-03[IP]: Simplify and consolidate MSG_PEEK error handlingHerbert Xu
When a packet is obtained from skb_recv_datagram with MSG_PEEK enabled it is left on the socket receive queue. This means that when we detect a checksum error we have to be careful when trying to free the packet as someone could have dequeued it in the time being. Currently this delicate logic is duplicated three times between UDPv4, UDPv6 and RAWv6. This patch moves them into a one place and simplifies the code somewhat.
