c4d27ef957 bridge: convert br_features_recompute() to ndo_fix_features
Note: netdev_update_features() needs only rtnl_lock as br->port_list
is only changed while holding it.

28674b97cf bridge: fix accidental creation of sysfs directory
Commit bb900b27a2 ("bridge: allow
creating bridge devices with netlink") introduced a bug in net-next
because of a typo in notifier. Every device would have the sysfs
bridge directory (and files).

bb900b27a2 bridge: allow creating bridge devices with netlink
Add netlink device ops to allow creating bridge device via netlink.
This works in a manner similar to vlan, macvlan and bonding.

Example:
  # ip link add link dev br0 type bridge
  # ip link del dev br0

The change required rearranging initializtion code to deal with
being called by create link. Most of the initialization happens
in br_dev_setup, but allocation of stats is done in ndo_init callback
to deal with allocation failure. Sysfs setup has to wait until
after the network device kobject is registered.

b5ed54e94d bridge: fix RCU races with bridge port
The macro br_port_exists() is not enough protection when only
RCU is being used. There is a tiny race where other CPU has cleared port
handler hook, but is bridge port flag might still be set.

f350a0a873 bridge: use rx_handler_data pointer to store net_bridge_port pointer
Register net_bridge_port pointer as rx_handler data pointer. As br_port is
removed from struct net_device, another netdev priv_flag is added to indicate
the device serves as a bridge port. Also rcuized pointers are now correctly
dereferenced in br_fdb.c and in netfilter parts.

e0f43752a9 bridge: update sysfs link names if port device names have changed
Links for each port are created in sysfs using the device
name, but this could be changed after being added to the
bridge.

As well as being unable to remove interfaces after this
occurs (because userspace tools don't recognise the new
name, and the kernel won't recognise the old name), adding
another interface with the old name to the bridge will
cause an error trying to create the sysfs link.

This fixes the problem by listening for NETDEV_CHANGENAME
notifications and renaming the link.

1c01fe14a8 net: forbid underlaying devices to change its type
It's not desired for underlaying devices to change type. At the time,
there is for example possible to have bond with changed type from
Ethernet to Infiniband as a port of a bridge. This patch fixes this.

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.

11dc1f36a6 [BRIDGE]: netlink interface for link management
Add basic netlink support to the Ethernet bridge. Including:
 * dump interfaces in bridges
 * monitor link status changes
 * change state of bridge port

For some demo programs see:
	http://developer.osdl.org/shemminger/prototypes/brnl.tar.gz

These are to allow building a daemon that does alternative
implementations of Spanning Tree Protocol.

4433f420e5 [BRIDGE]: handle speed detection after carrier changes
Speed of a interface may not be available until carrier
is detected in the case of autonegotiation. To get the correct value
we need to recheck speed after carrier event.  But the check needs to
be done in a context that is similar to normal ethtool interface (can sleep).

Also, delay check for 1ms to try avoid any carrier bounce transitions.

1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
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!
