* [SK_BUFF]: Introduce ip_hdr(), remove skb->nh.iphArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2007-04-251-3/+3

* [SK_BUFF]: Introduce skb_network_header()Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo2007-04-251-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | 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.

* [SK_BUFF]: Introduce skb_reset_network_header(skb)Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo2007-04-251-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | For the common, open coded 'skb->nh.raw = skb->data' operation, so that we can later turn skb->nh.raw into a offset, reducing the size of struct sk_buff in 64bit land while possibly keeping it as a pointer on 32bit. This one touches just the most simple case, next will handle the slightly more "complex" cases. Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* [SK_BUFF]: Introduce skb_set_mac_header()Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo2007-04-251-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | For the cases where we want to set skb->mac.raw to an offset from skb->data. Simple cases first, the memmove ones and specially pktgen will be left for later. Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

* [NET]: Can use __get_cpu_var() instead of per_cpu() in loopback driver.Eric Dumazet2006-10-201-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | As BHs are off in loopback_xmit(), preemption cannot occurs, so we can use __get_cpu_var() instead of per_cpu() (and avoid a preempt_enable()/preempt_disable() pair) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* [NET]: reduce per cpu ram used for loopback statsEric Dumazet2006-10-181-16/+19
| | | | | | | | | | We dont need a full struct net_device_stats (currently 23 long : 184 bytes on x86_64) per possible CPU, but only two counters : bytes and packets We save few CPU cycles too in loopback_xmit() not updating 4 fields, but 2.

* [NET] loopback: minor statistics optimizationStephen Hemminger2006-09-281-17/+14
| | | | | | | | | The loopback device status structure is a singleton and doesn't need to be allocated. Add ethtool_ops hooks to show checksum always on, and make ethtool_ops const. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

* [NET] gso: Add skb_is_gsoHerbert Xu2006-07-081-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | This patch adds the wrapper function skb_is_gso which can be used instead of directly testing skb_shinfo(skb)->gso_size. This makes things a little nicer and allows us to change the primary key for indicating whether an skb is GSO (if we ever want to do that).

* [NET]: Merge TSO/UFO fields in sk_buffHerbert Xu2006-06-231-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Having separate fields in sk_buff for TSO/UFO (tso_size/ufo_size) is not going to scale if we add any more segmentation methods (e.g., DCCP). So let's merge them. They were used to tell the protocol of a packet. This function has been subsumed by the new gso_type field. This is essentially a set of netdev feature bits (shifted by 16 bits) that are required to process a specific skb. As such it's easy to tell whether a given device can process a GSO skb: you just have to and the gso_type field and the netdev's features field. I've made gso_type a conjunction. The idea is that you have a base type (e.g., SKB_GSO_TCPV4) that can be modified further to support new features. For example, if we add a hardware TSO type that supports ECN, they would declare NETIF_F_TSO | NETIF_F_TSO_ECN. All TSO packets with CWR set would have a gso_type of SKB_GSO_TCPV4 | SKB_GSO_TCPV4_ECN while all other TSO packets would be SKB_GSO_TCPV4. This means that only the CWR packets need to be emulated in software. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

* [PATCH] more for_each_cpu() conversionsAndrew Morton2006-03-231-3/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we stop allocating percpu memory for not-possible CPUs we must not touch the percpu data for not-possible CPUs at all. The correct way of doing this is to test cpu_possible() or to use for_each_cpu(). This patch is a kernel-wide sweep of all instances of NR_CPUS. I found very few instances of this bug, if any. But the patch converts lots of open-coded test to use the preferred helper macros.

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!
