2005-08-29[NETLINK]: Add set/getsockopt options to support more than 32 groupsPatrick McHardy1-0/+9
NETLINK_ADD_MEMBERSHIP/NETLINK_DROP_MEMBERSHIP are used to join/leave groups, NETLINK_PKTINFO is used to enable nl_pktinfo control messages for received packets to get the extended destination group number.

2005-08-29[NETLINK]: Use group numbers instead of bitmasks internallyPatrick McHardy1-1/+1
Using the group number allows increasing the number of groups without beeing limited by the size of the bitmask. It introduces one limitation for netlink users: messages can't be broadcasted to multiple groups anymore, however this feature was never used inside the kernel.

2005-08-29[TCPDIAG]: Just rename everything to inet_diagArnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-1/+1
Next changeset will rename tcp_diag.[ch] to inet_diag.[ch]. I'm taking this longer route so as to easy review, making clear the changes made all along the way. Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@mandriva.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2005-08-29[NETLINK]: Add properly module refcounting for kernel netlink sockets.Harald Welte1-1/+1
- Remove bogus code for compiling netlink as module - Add module refcounting support for modules implementing a netlink protocol - Add support for autoloading modules that implement a netlink protocol as soon as someone opens a socket for that protocol Signed-off-by: Harald Welte <laforge@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2005-08-08[NETLINK]: Allocate and kill some netlink numbers.David S. Miller1-3/+1
NETLINK_ARPD is unused, allocate it to the Open-iSCSI folks. NETLINK_ROUTE6 and NETLINK_TAPBASE are no longer used, delete them. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2005-07-24[W1]: Do not use NFLOG netlink number.David S. Miller1-1/+1
Use the reserved by never used NETLINK_SKIP value instead. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2005-06-21[NETLINK]: netlink_callback structure needs 5 args not 4Alexey Kuznetsov1-1/+1

2005-06-20[NETLINK]: fib_lookup() via netlinkRobert Olsson1-0/+1
Below is a more generic patch to do fib_lookup via netlink. For others we should say that we discussed this as a way to verify route selection. It's also possible there are others uses for this. In short the fist half of struct fib_result_nl is filled in by caller and netlink call fills in the other half and returns it. In case anyone is interested there is a corresponding user app to compare the full routing table this was used to test implementation of the LC-trie. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2005-06-18[NETLINK]: Introduce NLMSG_NEW macro to better handle netlink flagsThomas Graf1-7/+10
Introduces a new macro NLMSG_NEW which extends NLMSG_PUT but takes a flags argument. NLMSG_PUT stays there for compatibility but now calls NLMSG_NEW with flags == 0. NLMSG_PUT_ANSWER is renamed to NLMSG_NEW_ANSWER which now also takes a flags argument. Also converts the users of NLMSG_PUT_ANSWER to use NLMSG_NEW_ANSWER and fixes the two direct users of __nlmsg_put to either provide the flags or use NLMSG_NEW(_ANSWER).

2005-06-18[NETLINK]: New message building macrosThomas Graf1-2/+15
NLMSG_PUT_ANSWER(skb, nlcb, type, length) Start a new netlink message as answer to a request, returns the message header. NLMSG_END(skb, nlh) End a netlink message, fixes total message length, returns skb->len. NLMSG_CANCEL(skb, nlh) Cancel the building process and trim whole message from skb again, returns -1.

2005-04-29Add audit uid to netlink credentialsSerge Hallyn1-0/+1
Most audit control messages are sent over netlink.In order to properly log the identity of the sender of audit control messages, we would like to add the loginuid to the netlink_creds structure, as per the attached patch.

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds1-0/+188
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!
