2013-10-10	inet: includes a sock_common in request_sock	Eric Dumazet	1	-1/+0
	TCP listener refactoring, part 5 : We want to be able to insert request sockets (SYN_RECV) into main ehash table instead of the per listener hash table to allow RCU lookups and remove listener lock contention. This patch includes the needed struct sock_common in front of struct request_sock This means there is no more inet6_request_sock IPv6 specific structure. Following inet_request_sock fields were renamed as they became macros to reference fields from struct sock_common. Prefix ir_ was chosen to avoid name collisions. loc_port -> ir_loc_port loc_addr -> ir_loc_addr rmt_addr -> ir_rmt_addr rmt_port -> ir_rmt_port iif -> ir_iif Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2013-10-09	ipv6: make lookups simpler and faster	Eric Dumazet	1	-1/+0
	TCP listener refactoring, part 4 : To speed up inet lookups, we moved IPv4 addresses from inet to struct sock_common Now is time to do the same for IPv6, because it permits us to have fast lookups for all kind of sockets, including upcoming SYN_RECV. Getting IPv6 addresses in TCP lookups currently requires two extra cache lines, plus a dereference (and memory stall). inet6_sk(sk) does the dereference of inet_sk(__sk)->pinet6 This patch is way bigger than its IPv4 counter part, because for IPv4, we could add aliases (inet_daddr, inet_rcv_saddr), while on IPv6, it's not doable easily. inet6_sk(sk)->daddr becomes sk->sk_v6_daddr inet6_sk(sk)->rcv_saddr becomes sk->sk_v6_rcv_saddr And timewait socket also have tw->tw_v6_daddr & tw->tw_v6_rcv_saddr at the same offset. We get rid of INET6_TW_MATCH() as INET6_MATCH() is now the generic macro. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
