2011-12-09Revert "net: netprio_cgroup: make net_prio_subsys static"John Fastabend
This reverts commit 865d9f9f748fdc1943679ea65d9ee1dc55e4a6ae. This commit breaks the build with CONFIG_NETPRIO_CGROUP=y so revert it. It does build as a module though. The SUBSYS macro in the cgroup core code automatically defines a subsys structure as extern. Long term we should fix the macro. And I need to fully build test things. Tested with CONFIG_NETPRIO_CGROUP={y|m|n} with and without CONFIG_CGROUPS defined.

2011-12-08net: netprio_cgroup: make net_prio_subsys staticJohn Fastabend
net_prio_subsys can be made static this removes the sparse warning it was throwing. Signed-off-by: John Fastabend <john.r.fastabend@intel.com> Acked-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2011-11-23net: treewide use of RCU_INIT_POINTEREric Dumazet
rcu_assign_pointer(ptr, NULL) can be safely replaced by RCU_INIT_POINTER(ptr, NULL) (old rcu_assign_pointer() macro was testing the NULL value and could omit the smp_wmb(), but this had to be removed because of compiler warnings) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2011-11-22net: add network priority cgroup infrastructure (v4)Neil Horman
This patch adds in the infrastructure code to create the network priority cgroup. The cgroup, in addition to the standard processes file creates two control files: 1) prioidx - This is a read-only file that exports the index of this cgroup. This is a value that is both arbitrary and unique to a cgroup in this subsystem, and is used to index the per-device priority map 2) priomap - This is a writeable file. On read it reports a table of 2-tuples <name:priority> where name is the name of a network interface and priority is indicates the priority assigned to frames egresessing on the named interface and originating from a pid in this cgroup This cgroup allows for skb priority to be set prior to a root qdisc getting selected. This is benenficial for DCB enabled systems, in that it allows for any application to use dcb configured priorities so without application modification Signed-off-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> Signed-off-by: John Fastabend <john.r.fastabend@intel.com> CC: Robert Love <robert.w.love@intel.com> CC: "David S.
