net: convert BUG_TRAP to generic WARN_ON

2008-07-26T04:43:18Z

Removes legacy reinvent-the-wheel type thing. The generic machinery integrates much better to automated debugging aids such as kerneloops.org (and others), and is unambiguous due to better naming. Non-intuively BUG_TRAP() is actually equal to WARN_ON() rather than BUG_ON() though some might actually be promoted to BUG_ON() but I left that to future. I could make at least one BUILD_BUG_ON conversion. Signed-off-by: Ilpo Järvinen Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

netns: Use net_eq() to compare net-namespaces for optimization.

2008-07-20T05:34:43Z

Without CONFIG_NET_NS, namespace is always &init_net. Compiler will be able to omit namespace comparisons with this patch. Signed-off-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[NET] NETNS: Omit net_device->nd_net without CONFIG_NET_NS.

2008-03-25T19:39:53Z

Introduce per-net_device inlines: dev_net(), dev_net_set(). Without CONFIG_NET_NS, no namespace other than &init_net exists. Let's explicitly define them to help compiler optimizations. Signed-off-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki

[ATALK/DECNET]: Use seq_open_private in appletalk and decnet.

2008-02-29T19:38:24Z

These two also perform manual seq_open_private, so patch them both at once. But unlike ATM code, these already use the seq_release_private, so I splitted this patch from the previous one. Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov Acked-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[APPLETALK]: Use proc_create() to setup ->proc_fops first

2008-02-28T20:53:32Z

As Davem mentioned in his recently patch (d9595a7b9c777d45a74774f1428c263a0a47f4c0) that the procfs visibility should occur after the ->proc_fops are setup. And also, Alexey provide proc_create() to make sure that ->proc_fops is setup before gluing PDE to main tree. We use proc_create(). Signed-off-by: Wang Chen Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[NET]: Simple ctl_table to ctl_path conversions.

2008-01-28T23:01:07Z

This patch includes many places, that only required replacing the ctl_table-s with appropriate ctl_paths and call register_sysctl_paths(). Nothing special was done with them. Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[NET]: Convert init_timer into setup_timer

2008-01-28T22:53:35Z

Many-many code in the kernel initialized the timer->function and timer->data together with calling init_timer(timer). There is already a helper for this. Use it for networking code. The patch is HUGE, but makes the code 130 lines shorter (98 insertions(+), 228 deletions(-)). Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov Acked-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
