Pavel Begunkov says: ==================== UDP sock_wfree optimisations The series is not UDP specific but that the main beneficiary. 2/3 saves one atomic in sock_wfree() and on top 3/3 removes an extra barrier. Tested with UDP over dummy netdev, 2038491 -> 2099071 req/s (or around +3%). note: in regards to 1/3, there is a "Should agree with poll..." comment that I don't completely get, and there is no git history to explain it. Though I can't see how it could rely on having the second check without racing with tasks woken by wake_up*(). The series was split from a larger patchset, see https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/cover.1648981570.git.asml.silence@gmail.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 Restructured Text 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.
