2010-06-15netfilter: xtables: idletimer target implementationLuciano Coelho
This patch implements an idletimer Xtables target that can be used to identify when interfaces have been idle for a certain period of time. Timers are identified by labels and are created when a rule is set with a new label. The rules also take a timeout value (in seconds) as an option. If more than one rule uses the same timer label, the timer will be restarted whenever any of the rules get a hit. One entry for each timer is created in sysfs. This attribute contains the timer remaining for the timer to expire. The attributes are located under the xt_idletimer class: /sys/class/xt_idletimer/timers/<label> When the timer expires, the target module sends a sysfs notification to the userspace, which can then decide what to do (eg. disconnect to save power).

NOTRACK makes all cpus share a cache line on nf_conntrack_untracked twice per packet. This is bad for performance. __read_mostly annotation is also a bad choice. This patch introduces IPS_UNTRACKED bit so that we can use later a per_cpu untrack structure more easily. A new helper, nf_ct_untracked_get() returns a pointer to nf_conntrack_untracked. Another one, nf_ct_untracked_status_or() is used by nf_nat_init() to add IPS_NAT_DONE_MASK bits to untracked status. nf_ct_is_untracked() prototype is changed to work on a nf_conn pointer.

2010-05-31arp_notify: allow drivers to explicitly request a notification event.Ian Campbell
Currently such notifications are only generated when the device comes up or the address changes. However one use case for these notifications is to enable faster network recovery after a virtual machine migration (by causing switches to relearn their MAC tables). A migration appears to the network stack as a temporary loss of carrier and therefore does not trigger either of the current conditions. Rather than adding carrier up as a trigger (which can cause issues when interfaces a flapping) simply add an interface which the driver can use to explicitly trigger the notification.

2010-05-31caif: cleanup: remove duplicate checksDan Carpenter
"phyinfo" can never be null here because we assigned it an address, so I removed both the assert and the second check inside the if statement. I removed the "phyinfo->phy_layer != NULL" check as well because that was asserted earlier. Walter Harms suggested I move the "phyinfo->phy_ref_count++;" outside the if condition for readability, so I have done that.

We already dereferenced uaddr towards the start of the function when we checked that "uaddr->sa_family != AF_CAIF".

Before that patch, we assumed that we recieved a valid pointer for uaddr, and based on that, I have removed this check.
