b24b8a247f [NET]: Convert init_timer into setup_timer
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(-)).

lockdep is worried about the different order here:

#1 (rose_neigh_list_lock){-+..}:
#3 (ax25_list_lock){-+..}:

#0 (linkfail_lock){-+..}:
#1 (rose_neigh_list_lock){-+..}:

#3 (ax25_list_lock){-+..}:
#0 (linkfail_lock){-+..}:

So, ax25_list_lock could be taken before and after linkfail_lock. 
I don't know if this three-thread clutch is very probable (or
possible at all), but it seems another bug reported by Bernard
("[...] system impossible to reboot with linux-2.6.24-rc5")
could have similar source - namely ax25_list_lock held by
ax25_kill_by_device() during ax25_disconnect(). It looks like the
only place which calls ax25_disconnect() this way, so I guess, it
isn't necessary.

This patch is breaking the lock for ax25_disconnect().

215f7b08f2 [AX25]: Locking dependencies fix in ax25_disconnect().
Bernard Pidoux reported these lockdep warnings:

[ INFO: possible irq lock inversion dependency detected ]
2.6.23.1 #1
---------------------------------------------------------
fpac/4933 just changed the state of lock:
 (slock-AF_AX25){--..}, at: [<d8be3312>] ax25_disconnect+0x46/0xaf
 [ax25]
 but this lock was taken by another, soft-irq-safe lock in the past:
  (ax25_list_lock){-+..}

  and interrupts could create inverse lock ordering between them.
  [...]

[ INFO: inconsistent lock state ]
2.6.23.1 #1
---------------------------------
inconsistent {in-softirq-W} -> {softirq-on-W} usage.
ax25_call/4005 [HC0[0]:SC0[0]:HE1:SE1] takes:
 (slock-AF_AX25){-+..}, at: [<d8b79312>] ax25_disconnect+0x46/0xaf [ax25]
 [...]

This means slock-AF_AX25 could be taken both from softirq and process
context with softirqs enabled, so it's endangered itself, but also makes
ax25_list_lock vulnerable. It was not 100% verified if the real lockup
can happen, but this fix isn't very costly and looks safe anyway.
(It was tested by Bernard with 2.6.23.9 and 2.6.24-rc5 kernels.)

881d966b48 [NET]: Make the device list and device lookups per namespace.
This patch makes most of the generic device layer network
namespace safe.  This patch makes dev_base_head a
network namespace variable, and then it picks up
a few associated variables.  The functions:
dev_getbyhwaddr
dev_getfirsthwbytype
dev_get_by_flags
dev_get_by_name
__dev_get_by_name
dev_get_by_index
__dev_get_by_index
dev_ioctl
dev_ethtool
dev_load
wireless_process_ioctl

were modified to take a network namespace argument, and
deal with it.

vlan_ioctl_set and brioctl_set were modified so their
hooks will receive a network namespace argument.

So basically anthing in the core of the network stack that was
affected to by the change of dev_base was modified to handle
multiple network namespaces.  The rest of the network stack was
simply modified to explicitly use &init_net the initial network
namespace.  This can be fixed when those components of the network
stack are modified to handle multiple network namespaces.

For now the ifindex generator is left global.

Fundametally ifindex numbers are per namespace, or else
we will have corner case problems with migration when
we get that far.

At the same time there are assumptions in the network stack
that the ifindex of a network device won't change.  Making
the ifindex number global seems a good compromise until
the network stack can cope with ifindex changes when
you change namespaces, and the like.

e9dc865340 [NET]: Make device event notification network namespace safe
Every user of the network device notifiers is either a protocol
stack or a pseudo device.  If a protocol stack that does not have
support for multiple network namespaces receives an event for a
device that is not in the initial network namespace it quite possibly
can get confused and do the wrong thing.

To avoid problems until all of the protocol stacks are converted
this patch modifies all netdev event handlers to ignore events on
devices that are not in the initial network namespace.

As the rest of the code is made network namespace aware these
checks can be removed.

e730c15519 [NET]: Make packet reception network namespace safe
This patch modifies every packet receive function
registered with dev_add_pack() to drop packets if they
are not from the initial network namespace.

This should ensure that the various network stacks do
not receive packets in a anything but the initial network
namespace until the code has been converted and is ready
for them.

1b8d7ae42d [NET]: Make socket creation namespace safe.
This patch passes in the namespace a new socket should be created in
and has the socket code do the appropriate reference counting.  By
virtue of this all socket create methods are touched.  In addition
the socket create methods are modified so that they will fail if
you attempt to create a socket in a non-default network namespace.

Failing if we attempt to create a socket outside of the default
network namespace ensures that as we incrementally make the network stack
network namespace aware we will not export functionality that someone
has not audited and made certain is network namespace safe.
Allowing us to partially enable network namespaces before all of the
exotic protocols are supported.

Any protocol layers I have missed will fail to compile because I now
pass an extra parameter into the socket creation code.

457c4cbc5a [NET]: Make /proc/net per network namespace
This patch makes /proc/net per network namespace.  It modifies the global
variables proc_net and proc_net_stat to be per network namespace.
The proc_net file helpers are modified to take a network namespace argument,
and all of their callers are fixed to pass &init_net for that argument.
This ensures that all of the /proc/net files are only visible and
usable in the initial network namespace until the code behind them
has been updated to be handle multiple network namespaces.

Making /proc/net per namespace is necessary as at least some files
in /proc/net depend upon the set of network devices which is per
network namespace, and even more files in /proc/net have contents
that are relevant to a single network namespace.

ae40eb1ef3 [NET]: Introduce SIOCGSTAMPNS ioctl to get timestamps with nanosec resolution
Now network timestamps use ktime_t infrastructure, we can add a new
ioctl() SIOCGSTAMPNS command to get timestamps in 'struct timespec'.
User programs can thus access to nanosecond resolution.

954b2e7f4c [NET] AX.25 Kconfig and docs updates and fixes
o The AX.25 Howto is unmaintained since several years.  I've replaced it
   with a wiki at http://www.linux-ax25.org which provides more uptodate
   information.
 o Change default for AX25_DAMA_SLAVE to Y.  AX25_DAMA_SLAVE only compiles
   in support for DAMA but doesn't activate it.  I hope this gets Linux
   distributions to ship their AX.25 kernels with AX25_DAMA_SLAVE enabled.
   The price for this would be very small.
 o Delete historic changelog from comments, that's what SCM systems are
   meant to do.
 o ---help--- in Kconfig looks so yellingly eye insulting.  Use just help.
 o Rewrite the commented out piece of old Linux 2.4 configuration language
   to Kconfig for consistency.
 o Fixup dependencies.

0b4d414714 [PATCH] sysctl: remove insert_at_head from register_sysctl
The semantic effect of insert_at_head is that it would allow new registered
sysctl entries to override existing sysctl entries of the same name.  Which is
pain for caching and the proc interface never implemented.

I have done an audit and discovered that none of the current users of
register_sysctl care as (excpet for directories) they do not register
duplicate sysctl entries.

So this patch simply removes the support for overriding existing entries in
the sys_sysctl interface since no one uses it or cares and it makes future
enhancments harder.

cd354f1ae7 [PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.h
After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
anything defined in there.  Presumably these includes were once needed for
macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
course of cleaning it up.

To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.

Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all
configs in arch/arm/configs on arm.  I also checked that no new warnings were
introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
by unnecessarily included header files).

9a32144e9d [PATCH] mark struct file_operations const 7
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.
