This patch tests how many kmallocs is needed to create and free a batch of UDP sockets and each socket has a 64bytes bpf storage. It also measures how fast the UDP sockets can be created. The result is from my qemu setup. Before bpf_mem_cache_alloc/free: ./bench -p 1 local-storage-create Setting up benchmark 'local-storage-create'... Benchmark 'local-storage-create' started.

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.
