Arun Sharma 60063497a9 atomic: use <linux/atomic.h>
This allows us to move duplicated code in <asm/atomic.h>
(atomic_inc_not_zero() for now) to <linux/atomic.h>

Octavian Purdila 52d58aef5e llc: replace the socket list with a local address based hash
For the cases where a lot of interfaces are used in conjunction with a
lot of LLC sockets bound to the same SAP, the iteration of the socket
list becomes prohibitively expensive.

Replacing the list with a a local address based hash significantly
improves the bind and listener lookup operations as well as the
datagram delivery.

Connected sockets delivery is also improved, but this patch does not
address the case where we have lots of sockets with the same local
address connected to different remote addresses.

In order to keep the socket sanity checks alive and fast a socket
counter was added to the SAP structure.

Octavian Purdila 6d2e3ea284 llc: use a device based hash table to speed up multicast delivery
This patch adds a per SAP device based hash table to solve the
multicast delivery scalability issue when we have large number of
interfaces and a large number of sockets bound to the same SAP.

Octavian Purdila b76f5a8427 llc: convert the socket list to RCU locking
For the reclamation phase we use the SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU mechanism,
which require some extra checks in the lookup code:

a) If the current socket was released, reallocated & inserted in
another list it will short circuit the iteration for the current list,
thus we need to restart the lookup.

b) If the current socket was released, reallocated & inserted in the
same list we just need to recheck it matches the look-up criteria and
if not we can skip to the next element.

In this case there is no need to restart the lookup, since sockets are
inserted at the start of the list and the worst that will happen is
that we will iterate throught some of the list elements more then
once.

Note that the /proc and multicast delivery was not yet converted to
RCU, it still uses spinlocks for protection.

Cleanup of LLC.  llc_mac_hdr_init can take constant arguments,
and it is defined twice once in llc_output.h that is otherwise unused.

David S. Miller f2ccd8fa06 [NET]: Kill skb->real_dev
Bonding just wants the device before the skb_bond()
decapsulation occurs, so simply pass that original
device into packet_type->func() as an argument.

It remains to be seen whether we can use this same
exact thing to get rid of skb->input_dev as well.

Linus Torvalds 1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
