proc: introduce proc_create_seq{,_data}

2018-05-16T05:23:35Z

Variants of proc_create{,_data} that directly take a struct seq_operations argument and drastically reduces the boilerplate code in the callers. All trivial callers converted over. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig

net: Use octal not symbolic permissions

2018-03-26T16:07:48Z

Prefer the direct use of octal for permissions. Done with checkpatch -f --types=SYMBOLIC_PERMS --fix-inplace and some typing. Miscellanea: o Whitespace neatening around these conversions. Signed-off-by: Joe Perches Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: delete /proc THIS_MODULE references

2018-01-16T20:01:33Z

/proc has been ignoring struct file_operations::owner field for 10 years. Specifically, it started with commit 786d7e1612f0b0adb6046f19b906609e4fe8b1ba ("Fix rmmod/read/write races in /proc entries"). Notice the chunk where inode->i_fop is initialized with proxy struct file_operations for regular files: - if (de->proc_fops) - inode->i_fop = de->proc_fops; + if (de->proc_fops) { + if (S_ISREG(inode->i_mode)) + inode->i_fop = &proc_reg_file_ops; + else + inode->i_fop = de->proc_fops; + } VFS stopped pinning module at this point.

sock: tigthen lockdep checks for sock_owned_by_user

2016-04-14T02:37:20Z

sock_owned_by_user should not be used without socket lock held. It seems to be a common practice to check .owned before lock reclassification, so provide a little help to abstract this check away.

net: proc_fs: trivial: print UIDs as unsigned int

UIDs are printed in the proc_fs as signed int, whereas they are unsigned int. Signed-off-by: Francesco Fusco Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: Add export.h for EXPORT_SYMBOL/THIS_MODULE to non-modules

2011-10-31T23:30:30Z

These files are non modular, but need to export symbols using the macros now living in export.h -- call out the include so that things won't break when we remove the implicit presence of module.h from everywhere. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker

llc: replace the socket list with a local address based hash

2009-12-27T04:45:32Z

For the cases where a lot of interfaces are used in conjunction with a lot of LLC sockets bound to the same SAP, the iteration of the socket list becomes prohibitively expensive. Replacing the list with a a local address based hash significantly improves the bind and listener lookup operations as well as the datagram delivery. Connected sockets delivery is also improved, but this patch does not address the case where we have lots of sockets with the same local address connected to different remote addresses. In order to keep the socket sanity checks alive and fast a socket counter was added to the SAP structure. Signed-off-by: Octavian Purdila Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

llc: convert the socket list to RCU locking

2009-12-27T04:41:43Z

For the reclamation phase we use the SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU mechanism, which require some extra checks in the lookup code: a) If the current socket was released, reallocated & inserted in another list it will short circuit the iteration for the current list, thus we need to restart the lookup. b) If the current socket was released, reallocated & inserted in the same list we just need to recheck it matches the look-up criteria and if not we can skip to the next element. In this case there is no need to restart the lookup, since sockets are inserted at the start of the list and the worst that will happen is that we will iterate throught some of the list elements more then once. Note that the /proc and multicast delivery was not yet converted to RCU, it still uses spinlocks for protection. Signed-off-by: Octavian Purdila Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
