* [AFS]: Replace rtnetlink client by direct dev_base walkingPatrick McHardy2007-05-03
| | | | | | | | | | Replace the large and complicated rtnetlink client by two simple functions for getting the MAC address for the first ethernet device and building a list of IPv4 addresses.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fixes for various arch compilation problems: (*) Missing module exports. (*) Variable name collision when rxkad and af_rxrpc both built in (rxrpc_debug). (*) Large constant representation problem (AFS_UUID_TO_UNIX_TIME). (*) Configuration dependencies. (*) printk() format warnings.

* [AFS]: Add support for the CB.GetCapabilities operation.David Howells2007-04-26
Add support for the CB.GetCapabilities operation with which the fileserver can ask the client for the following information: (1) The list of network interfaces it has available as IPv4 address + netmask plus the MTUs. (2) The client's UUID. (3) The extended capabilities of the client, for which the only current one is unified error mapping (abort code interpretation). To support this, the patch adds the following routines to AFS: (1) A function to iterate through all the network interfaces using RTNETLINK to extract IPv4 addresses and MTUs. (2) A function to iterate through all the network interfaces using RTNETLINK to pull out the MAC address of the lowest index interface to use in UUID construction.
