This patch applies the mutex so far only protecting the controller list to (almost) all accesses of controller data structures. It also reworks waiting on state changes in old_capi_manufacturer so that it no longer poll and holds a module reference to the controller owner while waiting (the latter was partly done already). Modification and checking of the blocked state remains racy by design, the caller is responsible for dealing with this. Signed-off-by: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@web.de> Signed-off-by: David S.

Another step towards proper locking: Rework the callback provided to capidrv for controller state changes. This is so far attached to an application, which would require us to hold the corresponding lock across notification calls. But there is no direct relation between a controller up/down event and an application, so let's decouple them and provide a notifier call chain for those events instead. This notifier chain is first of all used internally. Here we request the highest priority to unsure that housekeeping work is done before any other notifications. The chain is exported via [un]register_capictr_notifier to our only user, capidrv, to replace the racy and unfixable capi20_set_callback.

This step prepares the application of proper controller locking: Push all state changing work into the notify handler that are called by capi_ctr_ready and capi_ctr_down, switch detach_capi_ctr to issue a synchronous ctr_down. Also ensure that we do not go through any action if the state did not change. Signed-off-by: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@web.de> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The CVS revisions dumped by all CAPI modules are meaningless today. And that some CAPI module is loaded or removed does not necessarily deserve a message. Just keep the message of the central module, capi.ko, drop the rest. Signed-off-by: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@web.de> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Instead of looking up the dentry of an NCCI node again in capifs_free_ncci pass the pointer via the capifs user.

Stop computing the number of neighbour table settings we have by counting the number of binary sysctls. This behaviour was silly and meant that we could not add another neighbour table setting without also adding another binary sysctl. Don't pass the binary sysctl path for neighour table entries into neigh_sysctl_register. These parameters are no longer used and so are just dead code. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

Observed similar behavior on SPD as previouly seen on SAD flushing.. This fixes it. cheers, jamal commit 428b20432dc31bc2e01a94cd451cf5a2c00d2bf4 Author: Jamal Hadi Salim <hadi@cyberus.ca> Date: Thu Feb 11 05:49:38 2010 -0500 xfrm: Flushing empty SPD generates false events To see the effect make sure you have an empty SPD. On window1 "ip xfrm mon" and on window2 issue "ip xfrm policy flush" You get prompt back in window1 and you see the flush event on window2. With this fix, you still get prompt on window1 but no event on window2. Signed-off-by: Jamal Hadi Salim <hadi@cyberus.ca> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

When no more memory can be allocated, fq_find() will return NULL and increase the value of IPSTATS_MIB_REASMFAILS. In this case, ipv6_frag_rcv() also increase the value of IPSTATS_MIB_REASMFAILS. So, the patch deletes redundant counter of IPSTATS_MIB_REASMFAILS in fq_find(). and deletes the unused parameter of idev. Signed-off-by: Shan Wei <shanwei@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

The RCU usage in the original code was broken because there are cases where we possibly sleep with rcu_read_lock held. As a fix, change the macvtap_file_get_queue to get a reference on the socket and the netdev instead of taking the full rcu_read_lock. Also, change macvtap_file_get_queue failure case to not require a subsequent macvtap_file_put_queue, as pointed out by Ed Swierk.

The driver is expected to report that the link is up when the phy Rx signal is established and the mac has not detected a link fault. The code is however broken, the driver does not check the link fault status when the phy link status changes. The link fault status being checked within a short period of time, it leads to link up/link down events. Signed-off-by: Divy Le Ray <divy@chelsio.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
