bc3b2d7fb9 net: Add export.h for EXPORT_SYMBOL/THIS_MODULE to non-modules
These files are non modular, but need to export symbols using
the macros now living in export.h -- call out the include so
that things won't break when we remove the implicit presence
of module.h from everywhere.

3fb72f1e6e ipconfig wait for carrier
v3 -> v4: fix return boolean false instead of 0 for ic_is_init_dev

Currently the ip auto configuration has a hardcoded delay of 1 second.
When (ethernet) link takes longer to come up (e.g. more than 3 seconds),
nfs root may not be found.

Remove the hardcoded delay, and wait for carrier on at least one network
device.

130c0f47fd ipconfig: send host-name in DHCP requests
Normally dhclient can be configured to send the "host-name" option
in DHCP requests to update the client's DNS record. However for an
NFSROOT system, dhclient shall never be called (which may change the
IP addr and therefore lose your root NFS mount connection).

So enable updating the DNS record with kernel parameter

	ip=::::$HOST_NAME::dhcp

5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

964ad81cbd ipconfig: Handle devices which take some time to come up.
Some network devices, particularly USB ones, take several seconds to
fully init and appear in the device list.

If the user turned ipconfig on, they are using it for NFS root or some
other early booting purpose.  So it makes no sense to just flat out
fail immediately if the device isn't found.

It also doesn't make sense to just jack up the initial wait to
something crazy like 10 seconds.

Instead, poll immediately, and then periodically once a second,
waiting for a usable device to appear.  Fail after 12 seconds.

9643f45512 ipv4: teach ipconfig about the MTU option in DHCP
The DHCP spec allows the server to specify the MTU.  This can be useful
for netbooting with UDP-based NFS-root on a network using jumbo frames.
This patch allows the kernel IP autoconfiguration to handle this option
correctly.

It would be possible to use initramfs and add a script to set the MTU,
but that seems like a complicated solution if no initramfs is otherwise
necessary, and would bloat the kernel image more than this code would.

This patch was originally submitted to LKML in 2003 by Hans-Peter Jansen.

2513dfb83f ipconfig: handle case of delayed DHCP server
If a DHCP server is delayed, it's possible for the client to receive the 
DHCPOFFER after it has already sent out a new DHCPDISCOVER message from 
a second interface.  The client then sends out a DHCPREQUEST from the 
second interface, but the server doesn't recognize the device and 
rejects the request.

This patch simply tracks the current device being configured and throws 
away the OFFER if it is not intended for the current device.  A more 
sophisticated approach would be to put the OFFER information into the 
struct ic_device rather than storing it globally.

dea75bdfa5 [IPCONFIG]: The kernel gets no IP from some DHCP servers
From: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@linux-foundation.org>

Based upon a patch by Marcel Wappler:
 
   This patch fixes a DHCP issue of the kernel: some DHCP servers
   (i.e.  in the Linksys WRT54Gv5) are very strict about the contents
   of the DHCPDISCOVER packet they receive from clients.
 
   Table 5 in RFC2131 page 36 requests the fields 'ciaddr' and
   'siaddr' MUST be set to '0'.  These DHCP servers ignore Linux
   kernel's DHCP discovery packets with these two fields set to
   '255.255.255.255' (in contrast to popular DHCP clients, such as
   'dhclient' or 'udhcpc').  This leads to a not booting system.

9cecd07c3f [IPV4] Fix ip=dhcp regression
David Brownell pointed out a regression in my recent "Fix ip command
line processing" patch. It turns out to be a fairly blatant oversight on
my part whereby ic_enable is never set, and thus autoconfiguration is
never enabled. Clearly my testing was broken :-(

The solution that I have is to set ic_enable to 1 if we hit
ip_auto_config_setup(), which basically means that autoconfiguration is
activated unless told otherwise. I then flip ic_enable to 0 if ip=off,
ip=none, ip=::::::off or ip=::::::none using ic_proto_name();

The incremental patch is below, let me know if a non-incremental version
is prepared, as I did as for the original patch to be reverted pending a
fix.

de3cb747ff [NET]: Dynamically allocate the loopback device, part 1.
This patch replaces all occurences to the static variable
loopback_dev to a pointer loopback_dev. That provides the
mindless, trivial, uninteressting change part for the dynamic
allocation for the loopback.

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.

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.

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.

dcbdc93c6c [IPCONFIG]: ip_auto_config fix
The following commandline:

 root=/dev/mtdblock6 rw rootfstype=jffs2 ip=192.168.1.10:::255.255.255.0:localhost.localdomain:eth1:off console=ttyS0,115200

makes ip_auto_config fall back to DHCP and complain "IP-Config: Incomplete
network configuration information." depending on if CONFIG_IP_PNP_DHCP is
set or not.

The only way I can make ip_auto_config accept my IP config is to add an
entry for the server IP:

ip=192.168.1.10:192.168.1.15::255.255.255.0:localhost.localdomain:eth1:off

I think this is a bug since I am not using a NFS root FS.

The following patch fixes the above problem.

From: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>

Davem said (in February!):

  Well, first of all the change in question is not in 2.4.x either.  I just
  checked the current 2.4.x GIT tree and the test is exactly:

	if (ic_myaddr == INADDR_NONE ||
#ifdef CONFIG_ROOT_NFS
	    (MAJOR(ROOT_DEV) == UNNAMED_MAJOR
	     && root_server_addr == INADDR_NONE
	     && ic_servaddr == INADDR_NONE) ||
#endif
	    ic_first_dev->next) {

  which matches 2.6.x

  I even checked 2.4.x when it was branched for 2.5.x and the test was the
  same at the point in time too.

  Looking at the proposed change a bit it appears that it is probably
  correct, as it's trying to check that ROOT_DEV is nfs root.  But if it is
  correct then the UNNAMED_MAJOR comparison in the same code block should be
  removed as it becomes superfluous.

  I'm happy to apply this patch with that modification made.

7562f876cd [NET]: Rework dev_base via list_head (v3)
Cleanup of dev_base list use, with the aim to simplify making device
list per-namespace. In almost every occasion, use of dev_base variable
and dev->next pointer could be easily replaced by for_each_netdev
loop. A few most complicated places were converted to using
first_netdev()/next_netdev().

3ff50b7997 [NET]: cleanup extra semicolons
Spring cleaning time...

There seems to be a lot of places in the network code that have
extra bogus semicolons after conditionals.  Most commonly is a
bogus semicolon after: switch() { }
