This patch changes the runtime behavior of IP defrag queue: incoming in-order fragments are added to the end of the current list/"run" of in-order fragments at the tail. On some workloads, UDP stream performance is substantially improved: RX: ./udp_stream -F 10 -T 2 -l 60 TX: ./udp_stream -c -H <host> -F 10 -T 5 -l 60 with this patchset applied on a 10Gbps receiver: throughput=9524.18 throughput_units=Mbit/s upstream (net-next): throughput=4608.93 throughput_units=Mbit/s Reported-by: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@google.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Oskolkov <posk@google.com> Cc: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: 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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
