Remove skb->sp and allocate secpath storage via extension infrastructure. This also reduces sk_buff by 8 bytes on x86_64. Total size of allyesconfig kernel is reduced slightly, as there is less inlined code (one conditional atomic op instead of two on skb_clone). No differences in throughput in following ipsec performance tests: - transport mode with aes on 10GB link - tunnel mode between two network namespaces with aes and null cipher Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de> Signed-off-by: David S.

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.
