tipc: drop tx side permission checks

2014-12-09T18:30:13Z

Part of the old remote management feature is a piece of code that checked permissions on the local system to see if a certain operation was permitted, and if so pass the command to a remote node. This serves no purpose after the removal of remote management with commit 5902385a2440 ("tipc: obsolete the remote management feature") so we remove it.

tipc: add sock dump to new netlink api

2014-11-21T20:01:30Z

Add TIPC_NL_SOCK_GET command to the new tipc netlink API. This command supports dumping of all available sockets with their associated connection or publication(s). It could be extended to reply with a single socket if the NLM_F_DUMP isn't set. The information about a socket includes reference, address, connection information / publication information. Netlink logical layout of response message: -> socket -> reference -> address [ -> connection -> node -> socket [ -> connected flag -> type -> instance ] ] [ -> publication flag ] Signed-off-by: Richard Alpe Reviewed-by: Erik Hugne Reviewed-by: Jon Maloy Acked-by: Ying Xue Signed-off-by: David S.

net: Add and use skb_copy_datagram_msg() helper.

2014-11-05T21:46:40Z

This encapsulates all of the skb_copy_datagram_iovec() callers with call argument signature "skb, offset, msghdr->msg_iov, length". When we move to iov_iters in the networking, the iov_iter object will sit in the msghdr. Having a helper like this means there will be less places to touch during that transformation. Based upon descriptions and patch from Al Viro. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
