L2TPv2 sessions are currently kept in a per-tunnel hashlist, keyed by 16-bit session_id. When handling received L2TPv2 packets, we need to first derive the tunnel using the 16-bit tunnel_id or sock, then lookup the session in a per-tunnel hlist using the 16-bit session_id. We want to avoid using sk_user_data in the datapath and double lookups on every packet. So instead, use a per-net IDR to hold L2TPv2 sessions, keyed by a 32-bit value derived from the 16-bit tunnel_id and session_id. This will allow the L2TPv2 UDP receive datapath to lookup a session with a single lookup without deriving the tunnel first. L2TPv2 sessions are held in their own IDR to avoid potential key collisions with L2TPv3 sessions.

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.
