The sock_register() doesn't change the family, so the protocols can define it read-only. No caller ever checks return value from sock_unregister() Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Right now most inet_lookup_* functions take a host-order hnum instead of a network-order dport because that's how it is represented internally. This means that users of these functions have to be careful about using the right byte-order. To add more confusion, inet_lookup takes a network-order dport unlike all other functions. So this patch changes all visible inet_lookup functions to take a dport and move all dport->hnum conversion inside them.

Ther is no point in using a more expensive reader/writer lock for a low contention lock like the fib_info_lock. The only reader case is in handling route redirects. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The callers of fib6_rule_lookup don't expect it to return NULL, therefore it must return ip6_null_entry whenever fib_rule_lookup fails. Signed-off-by: Ville Nuorvala <vnuorval@tcs.hut.fi> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

By modern standards this function is way too big to be inlined. It's even bigger than __inet_lookup_listener :) Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The value is_setbyuser from struct ip_options is never used and set only one time (http://linux-net.osdl.org/index.php/TODO#IPV4). This little patch removes it from the kernel source. Signed-off-by: Louis Nyffenegger <louis.nyffenegger@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Moves netlink neighbour bits to linux/neighbour.h. Also moves bits to be exported to userspace from net/neighbour.h to linux/neighbour.h and removes __KERNEL__ guards, userspace is not supposed to be using it. rtnetlink_rcv_msg() is not longer required to parse attributes for the neighbour layer, remove dependency on obsolete and buggy rta_buf.

When the lookup in a table returns ip6_null_entry the policy routing lookup returns it instead of continuing in the next table, which effectively means it only searches the local table. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Replace CHECKSUM_HW by CHECKSUM_PARTIAL (for outgoing packets, whose checksum still needs to be completed) and CHECKSUM_COMPLETE (for incoming packets, device supplied full checksum).

Transforms netlink code to dump link tables to use the new netlink api. Makes rtnl_getlink() available regardless of the availability of the wireless extensions. Adding copy_rtnl_link_stats() avoids the structural dependency of struct rtnl_link_stats on struct net_device_stats and thus avoids troubles later on.

Transforms do_setlink() into rtnl_setlink() using the new netlink api. A warning message printed to the console is added in the event that a change request fails while part of the change request has been comitted already. The ioctl() based nature of net devices makes it almost impossible to move on to atomic netlink operations without obsoleting some of the functionality.
