IPV4 raw: Strengthen check on validity of iph->ihl

2008-02-08T20:01:16Z

[IPV4] raw: Strengthen check on validity of iph->ihl [ Upstream commit: f844c74fe07321953e2dd227fe35280075f18f60 ] We currently check that iph->ihl is bounded by the real length and that the real length is greater than the minimum IP header length. However, we did not check the caes where iph->ihl is less than the minimum IP header length. This breaks because some ip_fast_csum implementations assume that which is quite reasonable.

[SK_BUFF]: unions of just one member don't get anything done, kill them

Renaming skb->h to skb->transport_header, skb->nh to skb->network_header and skb->mac to skb->mac_header, to match the names of the associated helpers (skb[_[re]set]_{transport,network,mac}_header). Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[NET]: make seq_operations const

2007-04-26T05:25:03Z

The seq_file operations stuff can be marked constant to get it out of dirty cache. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[SK_BUFF]: Introduce skb_network_header()

2007-04-26T05:24:59Z

For the places where we need a pointer to the network header, it is still legal to touch skb->nh.raw directly if just adding to, subtracting from or setting it to another layer header. Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[SK_BUFF]: Use skb_reset_network_header where the skb_pull return was being used

2007-04-26T05:24:48Z

But only in the cases where its a newly allocated skb, i.e. one where skb->tail is equal to skb->data, or just after skb_reserve, where this requirement is maintained. Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[PATCH] mark struct file_operations const 7

2007-02-12T17:48:46Z

Many struct file_operations in the kernel can be "const". Marking them const moves these to the .rodata section, which avoids false sharing with potential dirty data. In addition it'll catch accidental writes at compile time to these shared resources. Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds
