docsrc: build Documentation/ sources

2008-08-12T23:07:30+00:00

Currently source files in the Documentation/ sub-dir can easily bit-rot since they are not generally buildable, either because they are hidden in text files or because there are no Makefile rules for them. This needs to be fixed so that the source files remain usable and good examples of code instead of bad examples. Add the ability to build source files that are in the Documentation/ dir. Add to Kconfig as "BUILD_DOCSRC" config symbol. Use "CONFIG_BUILD_DOCSRC=1 make ..." to build objects from the Documentation/ sources. Or enable BUILD_DOCSRC in the *config system. However, this symbol depends on HEADERS_CHECK since the header files need to be installed (for userspace builds). Built (using cross-tools) for x86-64, i386, alpha, ia64, sparc32, sparc64, powerpc, sh, m68k, & mips.

Documentation cleanup: trivial misspelling, punctuation, and grammar corrections.

udplite: Protection against coverage value wrap-around

2008-07-21T20:35:08+00:00

This patch clamps the cscov setsockopt values to a maximum of 0xFFFF. Setsockopt values greater than 0xffff can cause an unwanted wrap-around. Further, IPv6 jumbograms are not supported (RFC 3838, 3.5), so that values greater than 0xffff are not even useful. Further changes: fixed a typo in the documentation.

netdev: Kill NETIF_F_MULTI_QUEUE.

2008-07-18T02:21:03+00:00

There is no need for a feature bit for something that can be tested by simply checking the TX queue count. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
