2012-10-07infiniband: pass rdma_cm module to netlink_dump_startGao feng
set netlink_dump_control.module to avoid panic. Signed-off-by: Gao feng <gaofeng@cn.fujitsu.com> Cc: Roland Dreier <roland@kernel.org> Cc: Sean Hefty <sean.hefty@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2012-09-08netlink: hide struct module parameter in netlink_kernel_createPablo Neira Ayuso
This patch defines netlink_kernel_create as a wrapper function of __netlink_kernel_create to hide the struct module *me parameter (which seems to be THIS_MODULE in all existing netlink subsystems). Suggested by David S. Miller. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2012-06-29netlink: add netlink_kernel_cfg parameter to netlink_kernel_createPablo Neira Ayuso
This patch adds the following structure: struct netlink_kernel_cfg { unsigned int groups; void (*input)(struct sk_buff *skb); struct mutex *cb_mutex; }; That can be passed to netlink_kernel_create to set optional configurations for netlink kernel sockets. I've populated this structure by looking for NULL and zero parameters at the existing code. The remaining parameters that always need to be set are still left in the original interface. That includes optional parameters for the netlink socket creation. This allows easy extensibility of this interface in the future. This patch also adapts all callers to use this new interface.

2012-06-27infiniband: netlink: Move away from NLMSG_NEW().David S. Miller
And use nlmsg_data() while we're here too. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2012-04-02infiniband: Stop using NLA_PUT*().David S. Miller
These macros contain a hidden goto, and are thus extremely error prone and make code hard to audit. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2012-02-26netlink: add netlink_dump_control structure for netlink_dump_start()Pablo Neira Ayuso
Davem considers that the argument list of this interface is getting out of control. This patch tries to address this issue following his proposal: struct netlink_dump_control c = { .dump = dump, .done = done, ... }; netlink_dump_start(..., &c); Suggested by David S. Miller.

2011-10-31infiniband: add in export.h for files using EXPORT_SYMBOL/THIS_MODULEPaul Gortmaker
These were getting it implicitly via device.h --> module.h but we are going to stop that when we clean up the headers. Fix these in advance so the tree remains biscect-clean. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>
2011-06-10rtnetlink: Compute and store minimum ifinfo dump sizeGreg Rose
The message size allocated for rtnl ifinfo dumps was limited to a single page. This is not enough for additional interface info available with devices that support SR-IOV and caused a bug in which VF info would not be displayed if more than approximately 40 VFs were created per interface. Implement a new function pointer for the rtnl_register service that will calculate the amount of data required for the ifinfo dump and allocate enough data to satisfy the request.

2011-05-20RDMA: Add netlink infrastructureRoland Dreier
Add basic RDMA netlink infrastructure that allows for registration of RDMA clients for which data is to be exported and supplies message construction callbacks.
