We can allocate per-netns memory for struct pernet_operations by specifying id and size. register_pernet_operations() assigns an id to pernet_operations and later ops_init() allocates the specified size of memory as net->gen->ptr[id]. If id is missing, no memory is allocated. If size is not specified, pernet_operations just wastes an entry of net->gen->ptr[] for every netns. net_generic is available only when both id and size are specified, so let's ensure that. While we are at it, we add const to both fields. Signed-off-by: Kuniyuki Iwashima <kuniyu@amazon.com> 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 reStructuredText 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.
