Subject: [PATCH net-2.6.25 0/7] Make ipv4_devconf (all and default) live in net namespaces
Date: Tue, 11 Dec 2007 20:44:09 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <475ECC69.1040809@openvz.org> (raw)
The ipv4_devconf_(all) and ipv4_devconf_dflt are currently
global, but should be per-namespace.
This set moves them on the struct net. Or, more precisely,
on the struct netns_ipv4, which in turn is on the struct net.
There are two minor things that are to be done additionally
to this set:
1. The snmp_seq_show() needs the IPV4_DEVCONF_ALL(FORWARDING)
value, but since this entry is still global no valid struct
net can be get in it, so I use the init_net's one. After
snmp is made per-namespace, this will be fixed easily.
2. The rt_fill_info() needs the IPV4_DEVCONF_ALL(MC_FORWARDING),
but the routing code is not tuned to work inside namespaces
yet, so I use the init_net in it as well. Denis is currently
working on ipv4 routing, so this will be prepared shortly.
Happily, all the other places of devconf-s usage can provide a
struct net pointer.
