This code moves the rpc function to the common client base, reorganizes the flush code to be more simple and stable, and makes the necessary adjustments to the underlying transports to adapt to the new structure. This reduces the overall amount of code duplication between the transports and should make adding new transports more straightforward. Signed-off-by:

The virtio transport uses a simplified request management system that I want to use for all transports. This patch adapts and moves the exisiting code for managing requests to the client common code. Later patches will apply these mechanisms to the other transports. Signed-off-by:

The current trans_fd rpc mechanisms use a dynamic callback mechanism which introduces a lot of complexity which only accomodates a single special case. This patch removes much of that complexity in favor of a simple exception mechanism to deal with flushes. Signed-off-by:

Right now there is a transport module structure which provides per-transport type functions and data and a transport structure which contains per-instance public data as well as function pointers to instance specific functions. This patch moves public transport visible instance data to the client structure (which in some cases had duplicate data) and consolidates the functions into the transport module structure.

trans_fd used pool of upto 100 pollers to monitor the r/w fds. The approach makes sense in userspace back when the only available interfaces were poll(2) and select(2). As each event monitor - trigger - handling iteration took O(n) where `n' is the number of watched fds, it makes sense to spread them to many pollers such that the `n' can be divided by the number of pollers. However, this doesn't make any sense in kernel because persistent edge triggered event monitoring is how the whole thing is implemented in the kernel in the first place. This patch converts trans_fd to use single poller which watches all the fds instead of the poll of pollers approach. All the fds are registered for monitoring on creation and only the fds with pending events are scanned when something happens much like how epoll is implemented. This change makes trans_fd fd monitoring more efficient and simpler. Signed-off-by:

Base infrastructure to enable per-module debug messages. I've introduced CONFIG_DYNAMIC_PRINTK_DEBUG, which when enabled centralizes control of debugging statements on a per-module basis in one /proc file, currently, <debugfs>/dynamic_printk/modules. When, CONFIG_DYNAMIC_PRINTK_DEBUG, is not set, debugging statements can still be enabled as before, often by defining 'DEBUG' for the proper compilation unit. Thus, this patch set has no affect when CONFIG_DYNAMIC_PRINTK_DEBUG is not set. The infrastructure currently ties into all pr_debug() and dev_dbg() calls. That is, if CONFIG_DYNAMIC_PRINTK_DEBUG is set, all pr_debug() and dev_dbg() calls can be dynamically enabled/disabled on a per-module basis. Future plans include extending this functionality to subsystems, that define their own debug levels and flags. Usage: Dynamic debugging is controlled by the debugfs file, <debugfs>/dynamic_printk/modules. This file contains a list of the modules that can be enabled. The format of the file is as follows: <module_name> <enabled=0/1> . . . <module_name> : Name of the module in which the debug call resides <enabled=0/1> : whether the messages are enabled or not For example: snd_hda_intel enabled=0 fixup enabled=1 driver enabled=0 Enable a module: $echo "set enabled=1 <module_name>" > dynamic_printk/modules Disable a module: $echo "set enabled=0 <module_name>" > dynamic_printk/modules Enable all modules: $echo "set enabled=1 all" > dynamic_printk/modules Disable all modules: $echo "set enabled=0 all" > dynamic_printk/modules Finally, passing "dynamic_printk" at the command line enables debugging for all modules. This mode can be turned off via the above disable command. [gkh: minor cleanups and tweaks to make the build work quietly] Signed-off-by:

Problem observed: In IPv6, in the presence of multiple routers candidates to default gateway in one segment, each sending a different value of preference, the Linux hosts connected to the segment weren't selecting the right one in all the combinations possible of LOW/MEDIUM/HIGH preference. This patch changes two files: include/linux/icmpv6.h Get the "router_pref" bitfield in the right place (as RFC4191 says), named the bit left with this fix as "home_agent" (RFC3775 say that's his function) net/ipv6/ndisc.c Corrects the binary logic behind the updating of the router preference in the flags of the routing table Result: With this two fixes applied, the default route used by the system was to consistent with the rules mentioned in RFC4191 in case of changes in the value of preference in router advertisements Signed-off-by:

As I've reported, ath9k currently fails utterly when fragmentation is enabled. This makes ath9k "support" hardware fragmentation by not supporting fragmentation at all to avoid the double-free issue. The patch also changes mac80211 to report errors from the driver operation to userspace. That hack in ath9k should be removed once the rate control algorithm it has is fixed, and we can at that time consider removing the hw fragmentation support entirely since it's not used by any driver.

When debugfs_create_dir fails, sta_info_debugfs_add_work will not terminate because it will find the same station again and again. This is possible whenever debugfs fails for whatever reason; one reason is a race condition in mac80211, unfortunately we cannot do much about it, so just document it, it just means some station may be missing from debugfs.

Make a bus from hid core. This is the first step for converting all the quirks and separate almost-drivers into real drivers attached to this bus. It's implemented to change behaviour in very tiny manner, so that no driver needs to be changed this time. Also add generic drivers for both usb and bt into usbhid or hidp respectively which will bind all non-blacklisted device. Those blacklisted will be either grabbed by special drivers or by nobody if they are broken at the very rude base. Signed-off-by:

This patch removes the module dependency between ctnetlink and nf_nat by means of an indirect call that is initialized when nf_nat is loaded. Now, nf_conntrack_netlink only requires nf_conntrack and nfnetlink. This patch puts nfnetlink_parse_nat_setup_hook into the nf_conntrack_core to avoid dependencies between ctnetlink, nf_conntrack_ipv4 and nf_conntrack_ipv6. This patch also introduces the function ctnetlink_change_nat that is only invoked from the creation path. Actually, the nat handling cannot be invoked from the update path since this is not allowed. By introducing this function, we remove the useless nat handling in the update path and we avoid deadlock-prone code. This patch also adds the required EAGAIN logic for nfnetlink. Signed-off-by:

This is wrong in combination with NAT and ip_conntrack actually had some ifdefs to avoid this behaviour when NAT is compiled in.

This is a much better version of a previous patch to make the parser tables constant. Rather than changing the typedef, we put the "const" in all the various places where its required, allowing the __initconst exception for nfsroot which was the cause of the previous trouble.
