Linux kernel source tree
a890761798
Christoph Hellwig says: ==================== add a new ->ndo_tunnel_ctl method to avoid a few set_fs calls v2 both the ipv4 and ipv6 code have an ioctl each that can be used to create a tunnel using code that doesn't live in the core kernel or ipv6 module. Currently they call ioctls on the tunnel devices to create these, for which the code needs to override the address limit, which is a "feature" I plan to get rid of. Instead this patchset adds a new ->ndo_tunnel_ctl that can be used for the tunnel configuration using struct ip_tunnel_parm. The method is either invoked from a helper that does the uaccess and can be wired up as ndo_do_ioctl method, or directly from the magic IPV4/6 ioctls that create tunnels with kernel space arguments. Changes since v2: - properly propagate errors in ipip6_tunnel_prl_ctl ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
