2008-12-23	rpc: add an rpc_pipe_open method	\"J. Bruce Fields\	1	-0/+1
	We want to transition to a new gssd upcall which is text-based and more easily extensible. To simplify upgrades, as well as testing and debugging, it will help if we can upgrade gssd (to a version which understands the new upcall) without having to choose at boot (or module-load) time whether we want the new or the old upcall. We will do this by providing two different pipes: one named, as currently, after the mechanism (normally "krb5"), and supporting the old upcall. One named "gssd" and supporting the new upcall version. We allow gssd to indicate which version it supports by its choice of which pipe to open. As we have no interest in supporting simultaneous use of both versions, we'll forbid opening both pipes at the same time. So, add a new pipe_open callback to the rpc_pipefs api, which the gss code can use to track which pipes have been open, and to refuse opens of incompatible pipes. We only need this to be called on the first open of a given pipe. Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@citi.umich.edu> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

	This allows us to correctly deduce when we need to remove the pipe. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2007-07-10	SUNRPC: Add a downcall queue to struct rpc_inode	Trond Myklebust	1	-0/+1
	Currently, the downcall queue is tied to the struct gss_auth, which means that different RPCSEC_GSS pseudoflavours must use different upcall pipes. Add a list to struct rpc_inode that can be used instead. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

2006-11-22	WorkStruct: Separate delayable and non-delayable events.	David Howells	1	-1/+1
	Separate delayable work items from non-delayable work items be splitting them into a separate structure (delayed_work), which incorporates a work_struct and the timer_list removed from work_struct. The work_struct struct is huge, and this limits it's usefulness. On a 64-bit architecture it's nearly 100 bytes in size. This reduces that by half for the non-delayable type of event.

2005-04-16	Linux-2.6.12-rc2	Linus Torvalds	1	-0/+50
	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!
