From 9b50fd087a9f1454d6a8b613fff376dfb6d6ea93 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jon Paul Maloy Date: Fri, 22 Aug 2014 18:09:15 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] tipc: replace port pointer with socket pointer in registry In order to make tipc_sock the only entity referencable from other parts of the stack, we add a tipc_sock pointer instead of a tipc_port pointer to the registry. As a consequence, we also let the function tipc_port_lock() return a pointer to a tipc_sock instead of a tipc_port. We keep the function's name for now, since the lock still is owned by the port. This is another step in the direction of eliminating port_lock, replacing its usage with lock_sock() and bh_lock_sock().
