The initialization of the sysctl for the ipv6 protocol is changed to a network namespace subsystem. That means when a new network namespace is created the initialization function for the sysctl will be called. That do not change the behavior of the sysctl in case of the kernel with the network namespace disabled. Signed-off-by: Daniel Lezcano <dlezcano@fr.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Like the ipv4 part, this patch adds an ipv6 structure in the net structure to aggregate the different resources to make ipv6 per namespace. Signed-off-by: Daniel Lezcano <dlezcano@fr.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This patch add a network namespace subsystem for the af_inet6 module. It does nothing right now, but one of its purpose is to receive the different variables for sysctl in order to initialize them. When the sysctl variable will be moved to the network namespace structure, they will be no longer initialized as global static variables, so we must find a place to initialize them. Because the sysctl can be disabled, it has no sense to store them in the sysctl_net_ipv6 file. Signed-off-by: Daniel Lezcano <dlezcano@fr.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The conntracks subsystem has a similar infrastructure to maintain ctl_paths, but since we already have it on the generic level, I think it's OK to switch to using it. So, basically, this patch just replaces the ctl_table-s with ctl_path-s, nf_register_sysctl_table with register_sysctl_paths() and removes no longer needed code. After this the net/netfilter/nf_sysctl.c file contains the paths only. Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Acked-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

This includes the most simple cases for netfilter. The first part is tne queue modules for ipv4 and ipv6, on which the net/ipv4/ and net/ipv6/ paths are reused from the appropriate ipv4 and ipv6 code. The conntrack module is also patched, but this hunk is very small and simple. Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Acked-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

The decnet includes two places to patch. The first one is the net/decnet table itself, and it is patched just like other subsystems in the first patch in this series. The second place is a bit more complex - it is the net/decnet/conf/xxx entries,. similar to those in ipv4/devinet.c and ipv6/addrconf.c. This code is made similar to those in ipv[46].

The feature of ipvs ctls is that the net/ipv4/vs path is common for core ipvs ctls and for two schedulers, so I make it exported and re-use it in modules. Two other .c files required linux/sysctl.h to make the extern declaration of this path compile well.

- The DNAT (Destination NAT) is not implemented in IPV4. - This patch remove the code which checks these flags in net/ipv4/arp.c and net/ipv4/route.c.

The file net/tipc/port.c takes a lock using the function tipc_port_lock and then releases the lock sometimes using tipc_port_unlock and sometimes using spin_unlock_bh(p_ptr->publ.lock). tipc_port_unlock simply does the spin_unlock_bh, but it seems cleaner to use it everywhere. The problem was fixed using the following semantic patch. (http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/) // <smpl> @@ struct port *p_ptr; @@ p_ptr = tipc_port_lock(...) ... ( p_ptr = tipc_port_lock(...); | ?- spin_unlock_bh(p_ptr->publ.lock); + tipc_port_unlock(p_ptr); ) // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> Acked-by: Jon Paul Maloy <maloy@donjonn.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

I would argue that mac80211 should handle fixed rates outside the rate control code, which would also allow them to take effect immediately instead of during the rate control callback, but this is pretty close to correct.

This patch changes mac80211's Kconfig/Makefile to: * select between the PID and the SIMPLE rate control algorithm as default * always allow tri-state for the rate control algorithms, building those that are selected 'y' into the mac80211 module (if that is a module, otherwise all into the kernel) * force the default rate control algorithm to be built into mac80211 It also makes both rate control algorithms proper modules again with MODULE_LICENSE etc. Only if EMBEDDED is the user allowed to select "NONE" as default which will cause no algorithm to be selected, this will work only when the driver brings one itself (e.g. iwlwifi drivers).

This patch handles the reordering of the Rx A-MPDU. This issue occurs when the sequence of the internal MPDUs is not in the right order. such a case can be encountered for example when some MPDUs from previous aggregations were recieved, while others failed, so current A-MPDU will contain a mix of re-transmited MPDUs and new ones.

This patch makes a separation between Rx frame pre-handling which stays in __ieee80211_rx and Rx frame handlers, moving to __ieee80211_rx_handle_packet. Although this separation has no affect in regular mode of operation, this kind of mechanism will be used in A-MPDU frames reordering as it allows accumulation of frames during pre-handling, dispatching them to later handling when necessary.

This patch fixes a problem with rx handling on multiple interfaces. Especially when using hardware-scanning and a wireless driver (i.e. iwlwifi) which is able to receive data while scanning. The rx handlers can modify the skb and the frame control field (see ieee80211_rx_h_remove_qos_control) but since every interface gets its own copy of the skb each should get its own copy of rx.fc too. In my case the wlan0-interface did not remove the qos-control from the frame because the corresponding flag in rx.fc was already removed while processing the frame on the master interface. Therefore somehow corrupted frames were passed to the userspace. Signed-off-by: Helmut Schaa <hschaa@suse.de> Acked-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

The function sockfd_lookup uses fget on the value that is stored in the file field of the returned structure, so fput should ultimately be applied to this value. This can be done directly, but it seems better to use the specific macro sockfd_put, which does the same thing. The problem was fixed using the following semantic patch.
