2006-09-22[IPv6] route: Simplify ip6_del_rt()Thomas Graf
Provide a simple ip6_del_rt() for the majority of users and an alternative for the exception via netlink. Avoids code obfuscation. Signed-off-by: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2006-09-22[PKT_SCHED]: Kill pkt_act.h inlining.David S. Miller
This was simply making templates of functions and mostly causing a lot of code duplication in the classifier action modules. We solve this more cleanly by having a common "struct tcf_common" that hash worker functions contained once in act_api.c can work with. Callers work with real action objects that have the common struct plus their module specific struct members. You go from a common object to the higher level one using a "to_foo()" macro which makes use of container_of() to do the dirty work. This also kills off act_generic.h which was only used by act_simple.c and keeping it around was more work than the it's value. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2006-09-22[NET] neighbour: reduce exportsStephen Hemminger
There are several symbols only used by rtnetlink and since it can not be a module, there is no reason to export them. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2006-09-22[IPv4]: FIB configuration using struct fib_configThomas Graf
Introduces struct fib_config replacing the ugly struct kern_rta prone to ordering issues. Avoids creating faked netlink messages for auto generated routes or requests via ioctl. A new interface net/nexthop.h is added to help navigate through nexthop configuration arrays. A new struct nl_info will be used to carry the necessary netlink information to be used for notifications later on. Signed-off-by: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2006-09-22[NET/IPV4/IPV6]: Change some sysctl variables to __read_mostlyBrian Haley

2006-09-22[RTNETLINK]: Add rtnetlink notification interfaceThomas Graf
Adds rtnl_notify() to send rtnetlink notification messages and rtnl_set_sk_err() to report notification errors as socket errors in order to indicate the need of a resync due to loss of events. nlmsg_report() is added to properly document the meaning of NLM_F_ECHO.

2006-09-22[NETLINK]: Add notification message sending interfaceThomas Graf
Adds nlmsg_notify() implementing proper notification logic. The message is multicasted to all listeners in the group. The applications the requests orignates from can request a unicast back report in which case said socket will be excluded from the multicast to avoid duplicated notifications. nlmsg_multicast() is extended to take allocation flags to allow notification in atomic contexts.

2006-09-22[NET]: Introduce RTA_TABLE/FRA_TABLE attributesPatrick McHardy
Introduce RTA_TABLE route attribute and FRA_TABLE routing rule attribute to hold 32 bit routing table IDs. Usespace compatibility is provided by continuing to accept and send the rtm_table field, but because of its limited size it can only carry the low 8 bits of the table ID. This implies that if larger IDs are used, _all_ userspace programs using them need to use RTA_TABLE. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2006-09-22[NET]: Use u32 for routing table IDsPatrick McHardy
