From a1a5344ddbe8fd3e080013b317ac9a664490cfdf Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Sun, 4 Oct 2015 21:08:11 -0700 Subject: tcp: avoid two atomic ops for syncookies inet_reqsk_alloc() is used to allocate a temporary request in order to generate a SYNACK with a cookie. Then later, syncookie validation also uses a temporary request. These paths already took a reference on listener refcount, we can avoid a couple of atomic operations.
