[IPV6]: Track device renames in snmp6.

2007-05-22T22:39:52+00:00

When network device's are renamed, the IPV6 snmp6 code gets confused. It doesn't track name changes so it will OOPS when network device's are removed. The fix is trivial, just unregister/re-register in notify handler. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger Signed-off-by: David S. Miller Signed-off-by: Adrian Bunk

[PATCH] percpu data: only iterate over possible CPUs

2006-02-05T19:06:51+00:00

percpu_data blindly allocates bootmem memory to store NR_CPUS instances of cpudata, instead of allocating memory only for possible cpus. As a preparation for changing that, we need to convert various 0 -> NR_CPUS loops to use for_each_cpu(). (The above only applies to users of asm-generic/percpu.h. powerpc has gone it alone and is presently only allocating memory for present CPUs, so it's currently corrupting memory).

[NET]: Wider use of for_each_*cpu()

2005-10-26T01:54:01+00:00

In 'net' change the explicit use of for-loops and NR_CPUS into the general for_each_cpu() or for_each_online_cpu() constructs, as appropriate. This widens the scope of potential future optimizations of the general constructs, as well as takes advantage of the existing optimizations of first_cpu() and next_cpu(), which is advantageous when the true CPU count is much smaller than NR_CPUS.

Linux-2.6.12-rc2

2005-04-16T22:20:36+00:00

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!
