2008-02-05Generic HDLC - remove now unneeded hdlc_device_descKrzysztof Halasa
Removes now unneeded struct hdlc_device_desc Signed-off-by: Krzysztof Halasa <khc@pm.waw.pl> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
2007-10-10[NET]: Move hardware header operations out of netdevice.Stephen Hemminger
Since hardware header operations are part of the protocol class not the device instance, make them into a separate object and save memory. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2007-10-10[NET]: Make device event notification network namespace safeEric W. Biederman
Every user of the network device notifiers is either a protocol stack or a pseudo device. If a protocol stack that does not have support for multiple network namespaces receives an event for a device that is not in the initial network namespace it quite possibly can get confused and do the wrong thing. To avoid problems until all of the protocol stacks are converted this patch modifies all netdev event handlers to ignore events on devices that are not in the initial network namespace. As the rest of the code is made network namespace aware these checks can be removed. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2007-10-10[NET]: Make packet reception network namespace safeEric W. Biederman
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.

Switching HDLC devices from Ethernet-framing mode caused stale ethernet function assignments within net_device. Signed-off-by: Krzysztof Halasa <khc@pm.waw.pl> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2007-02-05make hdlc_setup() static againAdrian Bunk
hdlc_setup was exported, but this export was never used. If a driver using it actually shows up it can still be exported again. Signed-off-by: Adrian Bunk <bunk@stusta.de> Acked-by: Krzysztof Halasa <khc@pm.waw.pl> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
2006-09-26[PATCH] Modularize generic HDLCKrzysztof Halasa
This patch enables building of individual WAN protocol support routines (parts of generic HDLC) as separate modules. All protocol-private definitions are moved from hdlc.h file to protocol drivers. User-space interface and interface between generic HDLC and underlying low-level HDLC drivers are unchanged.
