Biederman says: ==================== Introduce possible_net_t The current usage of write_pnet and read_pnet is a little laborious and error prone as you only notice if you failed to include them if are compiling with network namespaces enabled. possible_net_t remedies that by using a type that is 0 bytes when network namespaces are disabled and can only be read and written to with read_pnet and write_pnet. Aka less work and safer for the same effect. I kill hold_net and release_net first as are they are haven't been used since 2008 and are noise at the points where write_pnet and read_pnet are used. I have folded in Eric Dumazets suggestions to improve the killing of hold_net and release net. And respon. I had to respin anyway as there was enough changes elsewhere in the tree the previous version of these patches did not quite apply cleanly. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
