* [BRIDGE]: receive path optimizationStephen Hemminger2005-05-291-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | This improves the bridge local receive path by avoiding going through another softirq. The bridge receive path is already being called from a netif_receive_skb() there is no point in going through another receiveq round trip. Recursion is limited because bridge can never be a port of a bridge so handle_bridge() always returns. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* [BRIDGE]: prevent bad forwarding table updatesStephen Hemminger2005-05-292-2/+7
| | | | | | | | | | Avoid poisoning of the bridge forwarding table by frames that have been dropped by filtering. This prevents spoofed source addresses on hostile side of bridge from causing packet leakage, a small but possible security risk.

* [BRIDGE]: set features based on enslaved devicesStephen Hemminger2005-05-294-8/+40
| | | | | | | | | Make features of the bridge pseudo-device be a subset of the underlying devices. Motivated by Xen and others who use bridging to do failover.

* [PATCH] kobject/hotplug split - net bridgekay.sievers@vrfy.org2005-04-181-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | kobject_add() and kobject_del() don't emit hotplug events anymore. We need to do it ourselves now. Signed-off-by: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

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!
