It hasn't "summed" anything in over 7 years, and it's
just a straight mempcy ala skb_copy_to_linear_data()
so just get rid of it.

Currently the code for /proc/net/tcp disable BH while iterating
over the entire established hash table. Even though we call
cond_resched_softirq for each entry, we still won't process
softirq's as regularly as we would otherwise do which results
in poor performance when the system is loaded near capacity.
This anomaly comes from the 2.4 code where this was all in a
single function and the local_bh_disable might have made sense
as a small optimisation.
The cost of each local_bh_disable is so small when compared
against the increased latency in keeping it disabled over a
large but mostly empty TCP established hash table that we
should just move it to the individual read_lock/read_unlock
calls as we do in inet_diag.

Over the years this code has gotten hairier. Resulting in many long
discussions over long summer days and patches that get it wrong.
This patch helps tame that code so normal people will understand it.
Thanks to Thomas Graf, Peter J. waskiewicz Jr, and Patrick McHardy
for their valuable reviews.

This patch enhances TIPC's stream socket send routine so that
it avoids transmitting data in chunks that require fragmentation
and reassembly, thereby improving performance at both the
sending and receiving ends of the connection.
The "maximum packet size" hint that records MTU info allows
the socket to decide how big a chunk it should send; in the
event that the hint has become stale, fragmentation may still
occur, but the data will be passed correctly and the hint will
be updated in time for the following send. Note: The 66060 byte
pseudo-MTU used for intra-node connections requires the send
routine to perform an additional check to ensure it does not
exceed TIPC"s limit of 66000 bytes of user data per chunk.

This patch simplifies TIPC's Ethernet receive routine to take
advantage of information already present in each incoming sk_buff
indicating whether the packet was explicitly sent to the interface,
has been broadcast to all interfaces, or was picked up because the
interface is in promiscous mode.
This new approach also fixes the problem of TIPC accepting unwanted
traffic through UML's multicast-based Ethernet interfaces (which
deliver traffic in a promiscuous manner even if the interface is
not configured to be promiscuous).

Add the termios2 structure ready for enabling on most platforms. One or
two like Sparc are plain weird so have been left alone. Most can use the
same structure as ktermios for termios2 (ie the newer ioctl uses the
structure matching the current kernel structure)

Many places in kernel use seq_file API to iterate over a regular list_head.
The code for such iteration is identical in all the places, so it's worth
introducing a common helpers.
This makes code about 300 lines smaller:
The first version of this patch made the helper functions static inline
in the seq_file.h header. This patch moves them to the fs/seq_file.c as
Andrew proposed. The vmlinux .text section sizes are as follows:
2.6.22-rc1-mm1: 0x001794d5
with the previous version: 0x00179505
with this patch: 0x00179135
The config file used was make allnoconfig with the "y" inclusion of all
the possible options to make the files modified by the patch compile plus
drivers I have on the test node.

This is a hybrid version of the patch to add the LZO1X compression
algorithm to the kernel. Nitin and myself have merged the best parts of
the various patches to form this version which we're both happy with (and
are jointly signing off).
The performance of this version is equivalent to the original minilzo code
it was based on. Bytecode comparisons have also been made on ARM, i386 and
x86_64 with favourable results.
There are several users of LZO lined up including jffs2, crypto and reiser4
since its much faster than zlib.

Hi,
This is the third submission of the network driver for PS3.
The differences from the previous one are:
- renamed source file names so that their prefix can match
with the module name
- added cbe-oss-dev@ozlabs.org line for MAINTAINER file
- changed some in copyright comments
If there are no more comments, please apply for 2.6.23.
Thank you
--
Subject: PS3: Ethernet driver
From: Masakazu Mokuno <mokuno@sm.sony.co.jp>
Add Gigabit Ethernet support for the PS3 game console. The module will
be called ps3_gelic.

At present, when a device is enslaved to bonding, if ipv6 is
active then addrconf will be initated on the slave (because it is closed
then opened during the enslavement processing). This causes DAD and RS
packets to be sent from the slave. These packets in turn can confuse
switches that perform ipv6 snooping, causing them to incorrectly update
their forwarding tables (if, e.g., the slave being added is an inactve
backup that won't be used right away) and direct traffic away from the
active slave to a backup slave (where the incoming packets will be
dropped).
This patch alters the behavior so that addrconf will only run on
the master device itself. I believe this is logically correct, as it
prevents slaves from having an IPv6 identity independent from the
master. This is consistent with the IPv4 behavior for bonding.
This is accomplished by (a) having bonding set IFF_SLAVE sooner
in the enslavement processing than currently occurs (before open, not
after), and (b) having ipv6 addrconf ignore UP and CHANGE events on
slave devices.
The eql driver also uses the IFF_SLAVE flag. I inspected eql,
and I believe this change is reasonable for its usage of IFF_SLAVE, but
I did not test it.

Here's a slightly cleaner way of creating the /proc structure for the

one you're creating is mode 444, which is somewhat unusual for a directory
