2008-11-03net: '&' reduxAlexey Dobriyan
I want to compile out proc_* and sysctl_* handlers totally and stub them to NULL depending on config options, however usage of & will prevent this, since taking adress of NULL pointer will break compilation. So, drop & in front of every ->proc_handler and every ->strategy handler, it was never needed in fact. Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-11-03net: increase receive packet quantumStephen Hemminger
This patch gets about 1.25% back on tbench regression. My change to NAPI for multiqueue support changed the time limit on network receive processing. Under sustained loads like tbench, this can cause the receiver to reschedule prematurely. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2008-11-03IPVS: Add IPv6 support to LBLC/LBLCR schedulersJulius Volz
Add IPv6 support to LBLC and LBLCR schedulers. These were the last schedulers without IPv6 support, but we might want to keep the supports_ipv6 flag in the case of future schedulers without IPv6 support.

2008-11-02sch_netem: Replace ->requeue() method with open codeJarek Poplawski
After removing netem classful functionality we are sure its inner qdisc is tfifo, so we can replace qdisc->ops->requeue() method with open code. After this patch there are no more ops->requeue() users. The idea of this patch is by Patrick McHardy. Signed-off-by: Jarek Poplawski <jarkao2@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-11-02sch_netem: Remove classful functionalityJarek Poplawski
Patrick McHardy noticed that: "a lot of the functionality of netem requires the inner tfifo anyways and rate-limiting is usually done on top of netem. So I would suggest so either hard-wire the tfifo qdisc or at least make the assumption that inner qdiscs are work-conserving.", and later: "- a lot of other qdiscs still don't work as inner qdiscs of netem [...]". So, according to his suggestion, this patch removes classful options of netem. The main reason of this change is to remove ops->requeue() method, which is currently used only by netem.

2008-11-01udp: add a missing smp_wmb() in udp_lib_get_port()Eric Dumazet
Corey Minyard spotted a missing memory barrier in udp_lib_get_port() We need to make sure a reader cannot read the new 'sk->sk_next' value and previous value of 'sk->sk_hash'. Or else, an item could be deleted from a chain, and inserted into another chain. If new chain was empty before the move, 'next' pointer is NULL, and lockless reader can not detect it missed following items in original chain. This patch is temporary, since we expect an upcoming patch to introduce another way of handling the problem. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-11-01xfrm6: handling fragmentNicolas Dichtel
RFC4301 Section 7.1 says: "7.1. Tunnel Mode SAs that Carry Initial and Non-Initial Fragments All implementations MUST support tunnel mode SAs that are configured to pass traffic without regard to port field (or ICMP type/code or Mobility Header type) values. If the SA will carry traffic for specified protocols, the selector set for the SA MUST specify the port fields (or ICMP type/code or Mobility Header type) as ANY. An SA defined in this fashion will carry all traffic including initial and non-initial fragments for the indicated Local/Remote addresses and specified Next Layer protocol(s)." But for IPv6, fragment is treated as a protocol. This change catches protocol transported in fragmented packet. In IPv4, there is no problem.

2008-10-31wireless: clean up regulatory ignore_request functionJohannes Berg
This function has a few WARNs that may eventually trigger when an AP sends rogue beacons, those must be removed. Some of the comments in the function are also inappropriate as this function is concerned with the global hint, not a per- wiphy thing (which a multidomain flag on a wiphy would imply). I'm convinced that we don't need to do anything to implement multi-domain capability as 802.11-2007 specifies it because it makes only two things mandatory: * starting of BSS/IBSS must have country information (this can easily be done with a mac80211 patch) * a STA must adopt the country information (we already have the framework for this) But we don't have anything implemented anyway for now.

2008-10-31wireless: remove struct regdom hintingJohannes Berg
The code needs to be split out and cleaned up, so as a first step remove the capability, to add it back in a subsequent patch as a separate function.

Wireless HW without any dedicated queues for aggregation do not need the ampdu_queues mechanism present right now in mac80211.

We never clearly defined the semantics of the sta_notify callback and it was originally posted for iwlwifi which still doesn't use it at all.

2008-10-31mac80211: inform userspace of probe/auth/assoc timeoutJohannes Berg
I noticed that when for some reason [1] the probe or auth times out, wpa_supplicant doesn't realise this and only tries the next AP when it runs into its own timeout, which is ten seconds, and that's quite long. Fix this by making mac80211 notify userspace that it didn't associate. [1] my wrt350n in mixed B/G/HT mode often runs into this, maybe it's because one of the antennas is broken off and for whatever reason it decides to use that antenna to transmit the response frames (auth, probe); I do see beacons fine so it's not totally broken.

2008-10-31make ieee80211 invisibleJohannes Berg
This makes CONFIG_IEEE80211 invisible. The drivers that require it (ipw2100, ipw2200, hostap) select it, and everybody else really shouldn't even think about using it. Also, since there really is no point in compiling anything without crypto support these days, remove the crypto options and just enable them, leaving only the debugging option which only shows up when a driver is select that requires it. This makes it hard to enable, but most people wouldn't want to anyway.
