connector: use nlmsg_len() to check message length

2013-11-04T12:35:16Z

[ Upstream commit 162b2bedc084d2d908a04c93383ba02348b648b0 ] The current code tests the length of the whole netlink message to be at least as long to fit a cn_msg. This is wrong as nlmsg_len includes the length of the netlink message header. Use nlmsg_len() instead to fix this "off-by-NLMSG_HDRLEN" size check.

net: proc: change proc_net_remove to remove_proc_entry

2013-02-18T19:53:08Z

proc_net_remove is only used to remove proc entries that under /proc/net,it's not a general function for removing proc entries of netns. if we want to remove some proc entries which under /proc/net/stat/, we still need to call remove_proc_entry. this patch use remove_proc_entry to replace proc_net_remove. we can remove proc_net_remove after this patch.

net: proc: change proc_net_fops_create to proc_create

2013-02-18T19:53:08Z

Right now, some modules such as bonding use proc_create to create proc entries under /proc/net/, and other modules such as ipv4 use proc_net_fops_create. It looks a little chaos.this patch changes all of proc_net_fops_create to proc_create. we can remove proc_net_fops_create after this patch. Signed-off-by: Gao feng Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

Drivers: misc: remove __dev* attributes.

2013-01-03T23:57:16Z

CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option. As a result, the __dev* markings need to be removed. This change removes the use of __devinit, __devexit_p, __devinitdata, __devinitconst, and __devexit from these drivers. Based on patches originally written by Bill Pemberton, but redone by me in order to handle some of the coding style issues better, by hand. Cc: Bill Pemberton Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

netlink: hide struct module parameter in netlink_kernel_create

2012-09-08T22:46:30Z

This patch defines netlink_kernel_create as a wrapper function of __netlink_kernel_create to hide the struct module *me parameter (which seems to be THIS_MODULE in all existing netlink subsystems). Suggested by David S. Miller. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

netlink: add netlink_kernel_cfg parameter to netlink_kernel_create

2012-06-29T23:46:02Z

This patch adds the following structure: struct netlink_kernel_cfg { unsigned int groups; void (*input)(struct sk_buff *skb); struct mutex *cb_mutex; }; That can be passed to netlink_kernel_create to set optional configurations for netlink kernel sockets. I've populated this structure by looking for NULL and zero parameters at the existing code. The remaining parameters that always need to be set are still left in the original interface. That includes optional parameters for the netlink socket creation. This allows easy extensibility of this interface in the future. This patch also adapts all callers to use this new interface.

connector: use nlmsg_put() instead of NLMSG_PUT() macro.

2012-06-27T04:14:20Z

The NLMSG_PUT() macro contains a hidden goto which makes the code hard to audit and very error prone. While been there also use the inline function nlmsg_data() instead of the NLMSG_DATA() macro to do explicit type checking. Signed-off-by: Javier Martinez Canillas Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

Connector: Correctly set the error code in case of success when dispatching receive callbacks

2011-06-07T19:02:00Z

The recent changes to the connector code introduced this bug where even when a callback was invoked, we would return an error resulting in double freeing of the skb. This patch fixes this bug.
