ipvs: Embed estimator object into stats object

2008-08-11T12:00:43Z

There's no reason for dynamically allocating an estimator object for every stats object. Directly embed an estimator object into every stats object and switch to using the kernel-provided list implementation. This makes the code much simpler and faster, as we do not need to traverse the list of all estimators to find the one belonging to a stats object. There's no need to use an rwlock, as we only have one reader. Also reorder the members of the estimator structure slightly to avoid padding overhead. This can't be done with the stats object as the members are currently copied to our user space object via memcpy() and changing it would break ABI. Signed-off-by: Sven Wegener Acked-by: Simon Horman

ipvs: Fix possible deadlock in estimator code

2008-08-11T09:45:40Z

There is a slight chance for a deadlock in the estimator code. We can't call del_timer_sync() while holding our lock, as the timer might be active and spinning for the lock on another cpu. Work around this issue by using try_to_del_timer_sync() and releasing the lock. We could actually delete the timer outside of our lock, as the add and kill functions are only every called from userspace via [gs]etsockopt() and are serialized by a mutex, but better make this explicit.

[IPVS]: Switch to using ctl_paths.

2008-01-28T23:01:08Z

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. Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov Acked-by: Simon Horman 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

[INET_SOCK]: Move struct inet_sock & helper functions to net/inet_sock.h

2006-01-03T21:11:21Z

To help in reducing the number of include dependencies, several files were touched as they were getting needed headers indirectly for stuff they use. Thanks also to Alan Menegotto for pointing out that net/dccp/proto.c had linux/dccp.h include twice. Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

Linux-2.6.12-rc2

2005-04-16T22:20:36Z

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
