* [NET]: Make socket creation namespace safe.Eric W. Biederman2007-10-101-2/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch passes in the namespace a new socket should be created in and has the socket code do the appropriate reference counting. By virtue of this all socket create methods are touched. In addition the socket create methods are modified so that they will fail if you attempt to create a socket in a non-default network namespace. Failing if we attempt to create a socket outside of the default network namespace ensures that as we incrementally make the network stack network namespace aware we will not export functionality that someone has not audited and made certain is network namespace safe. Allowing us to partially enable network namespaces before all of the exotic protocols are supported. Any protocol layers I have missed will fail to compile because I now pass an extra parameter into the socket creation code.

* [PPPoX/E]: return ENOTTY on unknown ioctl requestsFlorian Zumbiehl2007-07-311-7/+4
| | | | | | | | | here another patch for the PPPoX/E code that makes sure that ENOTTY is returned for unknown ioctl requests rather than 0 (and removes another unneeded initializer which I didn't bother creating a separate patch for).

* [L2TP]: Add the ability to autoload a pppox protocol module.James Chapman2007-04-301-0/+8

* [PPPOE]: memory leak when socket is release()d before PPPIOCGCHAN has been ↵Florian Zumbiehl2007-04-251-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | called on it below you find a patch that fixes a memory leak when a PPPoE socket is release()d after it has been connect()ed, but before the PPPIOCGCHAN ioctl ever has been called on it. This is somewhat of a security problem, too, since PPPoE sockets can be created by any user, so any user can easily allocate all the machine's RAM to non-swappable address space and thus DoS the system. Is there any specific reason for PPPoE sockets being available to any unprivileged process, BTW? After all, you need a packet socket for the discovery stage anyway, so it's unlikely that any unprivileged process will ever need to create a PPPoE socket, no? Allocating all session IDs for a known AC is a kind of DoS, too, after all - with Juniper ERXes, this is really easy, actually, since they don't ever assign session ids above 8000 ...

* [PPPOX]: Fix assignment into const proto_ops.David S. Miller2006-01-031-7/+3
| | | | | | | | | And actually, with this, the whole pppox layer can basically be removed and subsumed into pppoe.c, no other pppox sub-protocol implementation exists and we've had this thing for at least 4 years. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

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!
