      net: print a notification on device rename · 6fe82a39
      Veaceslav Falico authored 
      Currently it's done silently (from the kernel part), and thus it might be
hard to track the renames from logs.

Add a simple netdev_info() to notify the rename, but only in case the
previous name was valid.

====================
net: print net_device name/state more often

Currently we use net_device->name only if it's the NETREG_REGISTERED
reg_state, otherwise we return "(unregistered device)".

However, we always populate net_device->name on creation, so it's always
available to us for use. The only caveat is that we might have a name like
"eth%d", in which case we cannot use it as it might change in the future.

Also, the net_device might not be NETREG_UNREGISTERED when the function is
called (_UNINITIALIZED, _UNREGISTERING, _RELEASED, _DUMMY), so it's
misleading.

So, a better way would be to always return the dev->name in netdev_name(),
unless it's in the form of "eth%d" or it's empty, then return
"unnamed net_device". This way we'll always return the name in
NETREG_REGISTERED reg_state, and also return it in other states, when
possible.

Also, to be more verbose on non-NETREG_REGISTERED states, add a function
netdev_reg_state(), which returns a string describing the state, and use it
in netdev_printk()-related functions. If the dev is in NETREG_REGISTERED
state then a void string is regurned and, thus, nothing changes.

After these two patches we'll have the same behaviour in the usual cases,
and more verbose in non-standardad/buggy ones.

v2->v3:
Correct the string for _UNINITIALIZED and warn on a bad reg_state,
per Joe Perches's comments.

v1->v2:
As Tom Gundersen suggested, there might be a case when we have an empty
string as a name for a device, so account this also and return "unnamed
device" for that case too.

      net: print net_device reg_state in netdev_* unless it's registered · ccc7f496
      Veaceslav Falico authored 
      This way we'll always know in what status the device is, unless it's
running normally (i.e. NETDEV_REGISTERED).

Also, emit a warning once in case of a bad reg_state.

      net: use dev->name in netdev_pr* when it's available · c6f854d5
      Veaceslav Falico authored 
      netdev_name() returns dev->name only when the net_device is in
NETREG_REGISTERED state.

However, dev->name is always populated on creation, so we can easily use
it.

There are two cases when there's no real name - when it's an empty string
or when the name is in form of "eth%d", then netdev_name() returns "unnamed
net_device".

      bonding: make it possible to have unlimited nested upper vlans · 3e403a77
      Veaceslav Falico authored 
      Currently we're limited by a constant level of vlan nestings, and fail to
find anything beyound that level (currently 2).

To fix this - remove the limit of nestings when going through device tree,
and when the end device is found - allocate the needed amount of vlan tags
and return them, instead of found/not found.

      net_sched: hold tcf_lock in netdevice notifier · 224e923c
      Cong Wang authored 
      We modify mirred action (m->tcfm_dev) in netdev event, we need to
prevent on-going mirred actions from reading freed m->tcfm_dev.
So we need to acquire this spin lock.
