From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Johannes Berg Subject: [PATCH 0/4] generic netlink namespace awareness Date: Fri, 10 Jul 2009 21:51:31 +0200 Message-ID: <20090710195131.504091075@sipsolutions.net> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Cc: linux-wireless-u79uwXL29TY76Z2rM5mHXA@public.gmane.org, tgraf-G/eBtMaohhA@public.gmane.org, "Eric W. Biederman" To: netdev-u79uwXL29TY76Z2rM5mHXA@public.gmane.org Return-path: Sender: linux-wireless-owner-u79uwXL29TY76Z2rM5mHXA@public.gmane.org List-Id: netdev.vger.kernel.org This patch series makes generic netlink network namespace aware, in some way, paving the way for making wireless completely netns aware (which I will submit to John's tree). The required changes are basically some preparations in core netlink, a change to make it possible to iterate net namespaces under just RCU (which may be useful elsewhere in the future), the actual genetlink patch and finally also exporting get_net_ns_by_pid() which wireless will need. The last patch (for get_net_ns_by_pid) could go through the wireless tree as well, but I've put it in here since it touches core code. The others probably shouldn't go through the wireless tree since they touch more than that. The first patch in this series fixes the last remaining problem I had with the generic netlink one, the patches are actually unchanged from the previous submission other than adding patch 1 in front. johannes -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo-u79uwXL29TY76Z2rM5mHXA@public.gmane.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
