There's already a fc_vport_termintate() call exported by
the transport. This patch adds a symmetric call to the API to allow
an NPIV-capable LLD to instantiate vports sans user intervention.
Additional comments/updates:
Re: scsi_fc_transport.txt
Add a function prototype for fc_vport_terminate similar to what's
done for fc_vport_create
Re: fc_vport_create
I recommend we pass the channel number in fc_vport_create rather
than fixing it at zero.
Also, ids->vport_type should be set to FC_PORTTYPE_NPIV prior to
calling fc_vport_create. The comment is also meaningless.

Currently, rfkill would stand in the way of properly supporting wireless
devices that are capable of waking the system up from sleep or hibernation
when they receive a special wireless message. It would also get in the way
of mesh devices that need to remain operational even during platform
suspend.
To avoid that, stop trying to block the transmitters on the rfkill class
suspend handler.
Drivers that need rfkill's older behaviour will have to implement it by
themselves in their own suspend handling.
Do note that rfkill *will* attempt to restore the transmitter state on
resume in any situation. This happens after the driver's resume method is
called by the suspend core (class devices resume after the devices they are
attached to have been resumed).
The following drivers need to check if they need to explicitly block
their transmitters in their own suspend handlers (maintainers Cc'd):

This adds the new wireless regulatory infrastructure. The
main motiviation behind this was to centralize regulatory
code as each driver was implementing their own regulatory solution,
and to replace the initial centralized code we have where:
* only 3 regulatory domains are supported: US, JP and EU
* regulatory domains can only be changed through module parameter
* all rules were built statically in the kernel
We now have support for regulatory domains for many countries
and regulatory domains are now queried through a userspace agent
through udev allowing distributions to update regulatory rules
without updating the kernel.
Each driver can regulatory_hint() a regulatory domain
based on either their EEPROM mapped regulatory domain value to a
respective ISO/IEC 3166-1 country code or pass an internally built
regulatory domain. We also add support to let the user set the
regulatory domain through userspace in case of faulty EEPROMs to
further help compliance.
Support for world roaming will be added soon for cards capable of
this.
For more information see:
http://wireless.kernel.org/en/developers/Regulatory/CRDA
For now we leave an option to enable the old module parameter,
ieee80211_regdom, and to build the 3 old regdomains statically
(US, JP and EU). This option is CONFIG_WIRELESS_OLD_REGULATORY.
These old static definitions and the module parameter is being
scheduled for removal for 2.6.29. Note that if you use this
you won't make use of a world regulatory domain as its pointless.
If you leave this option enabled and if CRDA is present and you
use US or JP we will try to ask CRDA to update us a regulatory
domain for us.

This qdisc uses the skb->queue_mapping to select which band to place

This patch adds a generic infrastructure for policy-based dequeueing of
TX packets and provides two policies:
* a simple FIFO policy (which is the default) and
* a priority based policy (set via socket options).
Both policies honour the tx_qlen sysctl for the maximum size of the write
queue (can be overridden via socket options).
The priority policy uses skb->priority internally to assign an u32 priority
identifier, using the same ranking as SO_PRIORITY. The skb->priority field
is set to 0 when the packet leaves DCCP. The priority is supplied as ancillary
data using cmsg(3), the patch also provides the requisite parsing routines.

This adds full support for local/remote Sequence Window feature, from which the
* sequence-number-validity (W) and
* acknowledgment-number-validity (W') windows
derive as specified in RFC 4340, 7.5.3.
Specifically, the following changes are introduced:
* integrated new socket fields into dccp_sk;
* updated the update_gsr/gss routines with regard to these fields;
* updated handler code: the Sequence Window feature is located at the TX side,
so the local feature is meant if the handler-rx flag is false;
* the initialisation of `rcv_wnd' in reqsk is removed, since
- rcv_wnd is not used by the code anywhere;
- sequence number checks are not done in the LISTEN state (cf. 7.5.3);
- dccp_check_req checks the Ack number validity more rigorously;
* the `struct dccp_minisock' became empty and is now removed.
Until the handshake completes with activating negotiated values, the local/remote
Sequence-Window values are undefined and thus can not reliably be estimated.
This issue is addressed in a separate patch.

This removes the use of the sysctl and the minisock variable for the Send Ack
Vector feature, which is now handled fully dynamically via feature negotiation;
i.e. when CCID2 is enabled, Ack Vectors are automatically enabled (as per
RFC 4341, 4.).
Using a sysctl in parallel to this implementation would open the door to
crashes, since much of the code relies on tests of the boolean minisock /
sysctl variable. Thus, this patch replaces all tests of type
if (dccp_msk(sk)->dccpms_send_ack_vector)
/* ... */
with
if (dp->dccps_hc_rx_ackvec != NULL)
/* ... */
The dccps_hc_rx_ackvec is allocated by the dccp_hdlr_ackvec() when feature
negotiation concluded that Ack Vectors are to be used on the half-connection.
Otherwise, it is NULL (due to dccp_init_sock/dccp_create_openreq_child),
so that the test is a valid one.
The activation handler for Ack Vectors is called as soon as the feature
negotiation has concluded at the
* server when the Ack marking the transition RESPOND => OPEN arrives;
* client after it has sent its ACK, marking the transition REQUEST => PARTOPEN.
Adding the sequence number of the Response packet to the Ack Vector has been
removed, since
(a) connection establishment implies that the Response has been received;
(b) the CCIDs only look at packets received in the (PART)OPEN state, i.e.
this entry will always be ignored;
(c) it can not be used for anything useful - to detect loss for instance, only
packets received after the loss can serve as pseudo-dupacks.

Updating the NDP count feature is handled automatically now:
* for CCID-2 it is disabled, since the code does not use NDP counts;
* for CCID-3 it is enabled, as NDP counts are used to determine loss lengths.
Allowing the user to change NDP values leads to unpredictable and failing
behaviour, since it is then possible to disable NDP counts even when they
are needed (e.g. in CCID-3).
This means that only those user settings are sensible that agree with the
values for Send NDP Count implied by the choice of CCID. But those settings
are already activated by the feature negotiation (CCID dependency tracking),
hence this form of support is redundant.
At startup the initialisation of the NDP count feature is with the default
value of 0, which is done implicitly by the zeroing-out of the socket when
it is allocated. If the choice of CCID or feature negotiation enables NDP
count, this will then be updated via the NDP activation handler.

The TX/RX CCIDs of the minisock are now redundant: similar to the Ack Vector
case, their value equals initially that of the sysctl, but at the end of
feature negotiation may be something different.
The old interface removed by this patch thus has been replaced by the newer
interface to dynamically query the currently loaded CCIDs earlier in this
patch set.
Also removed the constructors for the TX CCID and the RX CCID, since the
switch rx/non-rx is done by the handler in minisocks.c (and the handler is
the only place in the code where CCIDs are loaded).

With this patch, TX/RX CCIDs can now be changed on a per-connection basis, which
overrides the defaults set by the global sysctl variables for TX/RX CCIDs.
To make full use of this facility, the remaining patches of this patch set are
needed, which track dependencies and activate negotiated feature values.
Note on the maximum number of CCIDs that can be registered:
-----------------------------------------------------------
The maximum number of CCIDs that can be registered on the socket is constrained
by the space in a Confirm/Change feature negotiation option.
The space in these in turn depends on the size of header options as defined
in RFC 4340, 5.8. Since this is a recurring constant, it has been moved from
ackvec.h into linux/dccp.h, clarifying its purpose.
Relative to this size, the maximum number of CCID identifiers that can be
present in a Confirm option (which always consumes 1 byte more than a Change
option, cf. 6.1) is 2 bytes less than the maximum TLV size: one for the
CCID-feature-type and one for the selected value.

This patch deprecates the Ack Ratio sysctl, since
* Ack Ratio is entirely ignored by CCID-3 and CCID-4,
* Ack Ratio currently doesn't work in CCID-2 (i.e. is always set to 1);
* even if it would work in CCID-2, there is no point for a user to change it:
- Ack Ratio is constrained by cwnd (RFC 4341, 6.1.2),
- if Ack Ratio > cwnd, the system resorts to spurious RTO timeouts
(since waiting for Acks which will never arrive in this window),
- cwnd is not a user-configurable value.
The only reasonable place for Ack Ratio is to print it for debugging. It is
planned to do this later on, as part of e.g. dccp_probe.
With this patch Ack Ratio is now under full control of feature negotiation:
* Ack Ratio is resolved as a dependency of the selected CCID;
* if the chosen CCID supports it (i.e. CCID == CCID-2), Ack Ratio is set to
the default of 2, following RFC 4340, 11.3 - "New connections start with Ack
Ratio 2 for both endpoints";
* what happens then is part of another patch set, since it concerns the
dynamic update of Ack Ratio while the connection is in full flight.

This provides a data structure to record which CCIDs are locally supported
and three accessor functions:
- a test function for internal use which is used to validate CCID requests
made by the user;
- a copy function so that the list can be used for feature-negotiation;
- documented getsockopt() support so that the user can query capabilities.
The data structure is a table which is filled in at compile-time with the
list of available CCIDs (which in turn depends on the Kconfig choices).
Using the copy function for cloning the list of supported CCIDs is useful for
feature negotiation, since the negotiation is now with the full list of available
CCIDs (e.g. {2, 3}) instead of the default value {2}. This means negotiation
will not fail if the peer requests to use CCID3 instead of CCID2.

In August 2006 I posted a patch generating a minimal SELinux policy. This
week, David P. Quigley posted an updated version of that as a patch against
the kernel. It also had nice logic for auto-installing the policy.
Following is David's original patch intro (preserved especially
bc it has stats on the generated policies):
se interested in the changes there were only two significant
changes. The first is that the iteration through the list of classes
used NULL as a sentinel value. The problem with this is that the
class_to_string array actually has NULL entries in its table as place
holders for the user space object classes.
The second change was that it would seem at some point the initial sids
table was NULL terminated. This is no longer the case so that iteration
has to be done on array length instead of looking for NULL.
Some statistics on the policy that it generates:
The policy consists of 523 lines which contain no blank lines. Of those
523 lines 453 of them are class, permission, and initial sid
definitions. These lines are usually little to no concern to the policy
developer since they will not be adding object classes or permissions.
Of the remaining 70 lines there is one type, one role, and one user
statement. The remaining lines are broken into three portions. The first
group are TE allow rules which make up 29 of the remaining lines, the
second is assignment of labels to the initial sids which consist of 27
lines, and file system labeling statements which are the remaining 11.
In addition to the policy.conf generated there is a single file_contexts
file containing two lines which labels the entire system with base_t.
This policy generates a policy.23 binary that is 7920 bytes.
(then a few versions later...):
The new policy is 587 lines (stripped of blank lines) with 476 of those
lines being the boilerplate that I mentioned last time. The remaining
111 lines have the 3 lines for type, user, and role, 70 lines for the
allow rules (one for each object class including user space object
classes), 27 lines to assign types to the initial sids, and 11 lines for
file system labeling. The policy binary is 9194 bytes.

cleans up the mdp directory.
Removed a check for file_contexts which is now
created in the same file as the check, making it
superfluous.

This patch removes the auerswald USB driver from the linux kernel
2.6.26.
This driver was included into the kernel mainly to connect to the ISDN
framework. This was done in linux 2.4.x. For 2.6.x, due to the fragile
and moving ISDN support, this connection was never realized, and the
only use of this driver was for device configuration. In the age of DSL,
the demand of ISDN support is getting very low.
Meanwhile, with the advent of libusb, an userspace driver was done for
the device configuration which works fine for linux and mac. (Thanks to
the libusb developers!). The userspace driver is downloadable from the
auerswald web site.
So this driver is obsolete now and has to be removed. Many thanks to all
developers which helped me to bring this driver up and working.
