2017-06-16networking: make skb_put & friends return void pointersJohannes Berg1-6/+5
It seems like a historic accident that these return unsigned char *, and in many places that means casts are required, more often than not. Make these functions (skb_put, __skb_put and pskb_put) return void * and remove all the casts across the tree, adding a (u8 *) cast only where the unsigned char pointer was used directly, all done with the following spatch: @@ expression SKB, LEN; typedef u8; identifier fn = { skb_put, __skb_put }; @@ - *(fn(SKB, LEN)) + *(u8 *)fn(SKB, LEN) @@ expression E, SKB, LEN; identifier fn = { skb_put, __skb_put }; type T; @@ - E = ((T *)(fn(SKB, LEN))) + E = fn(SKB, LEN) which actually doesn't cover pskb_put since there are only three users overall. A handful of stragglers were converted manually, notably a macro in drivers/isdn/i4l/isdn_bsdcomp.c and, oddly enough, one of the many instances in net/bluetooth/hci_sock.c. In the former file, I also had to fix one whitespace problem spatch introduced. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2014-01-14net: replace macros net_random and net_srandom with direct calls to prandomAruna-Hewapathirane1-1/+1
This patch removes the net_random and net_srandom macros and replaces them with direct calls to the prandom ones. As new commits only seem to use prandom_u32 there is no use to keep them around. This change makes it easier to grep for users of prandom_u32.

2013-09-23mrp: add periodictimer to allow retries when packets get lostNoel Burton-Krahn1-0/+27
MRP doesn't implement the periodictimer in 802.1Q, so it never retries if packets get lost. I ran into this problem when MRP sent a MVRP JoinIn before the interface was fully up. The JoinIn was lost, MRP didn't retry, and MVRP registration failed.

2013-04-12net/802/mrp: fix possible race condition when calling mrp_pdu_queue()David Ward1-0/+4
(Adapted from a very similar change to net/802/garp.c by Cong Wang.) mrp_pdu_queue() should ways be called with the applicant spin lock. mrp_uninit_applicant() only holds the rtnl lock which is not enough; a race is possible because mrp_rcv() is called in BH context: mrp_rcv() |->mrp_pdu_parse_msg() |->mrp_pdu_parse_vecattr() |->mrp_pdu_parse_vecattr_event() |-> mrp_attr_event() |-> mrp_pdu_append_vecattr_event() |-> mrp_pdu_queue() Cc: Cong Wang <amwang@redhat.com> Cc: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David Ward <david.ward@ll.mit.edu> Acked-by: Cong Wang <amwang@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
