. this allows us to kill the shorlived kmalloc/kfree for events in the fast path. . because of this there is no need for the skb member in the event structs . use more labeled elements in the transition tables . simplify llc_sock proc routine . more kernedoc style comments . . remove unused defines in llc_main.h . create llc_set_backlog_type and llc_backlog_type .

Forward port of LLC from 2.4 to 2.5. This is the forward port of the LLC stack released by Procom Inc. for Linux 2.0.30, I have heavily modified it to make it similar to other Linux network stacks, using of struct sk_buff to represent in-transit packets and doing massive code cleanups. Jay Schullist contributed support for BSD Sockets, as the original code had only a simple in kernel API for use by upper layer protocols, such as the NetBEUI stack also provided by Procom for 2.0.30. This code is basically what I had previously submitted to Alan Cox for his 2.4-ac series and that is even shipped in source form, in the Red Hat 7.3 kernel package, plus cleanups wrt standard syntax for labeled elements and further use of this C construct to make the code more resilient to editing mistakes, using the compiler to further check the source code. TODO: Make it completely SMP safe, as the reports of successful usage up to now and the testing is done on UP. Completely remove the old LLC code in the kernel, that is still there for things like Appletalk, IPX, etc to use, also check that all these protocols work correctly with this new LLC stack. This code is already being used in the linux-sna project and Jay Schullist has been developing support for things like DLSw and other protocols that works on top of 802.2. I'll be releasing patches with the NetBEUI stack and updated samba-2.0.6 patches for use with NetBEUI and this LLC stack in the future. But the NetBEUI code is available already in my kernel.org ftp area at: ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/acme. Please report problems to me or the linux-sna mailing list, instructions on how to subscribe are available at http://www.linux-sna.org website.
