Florian Westphal says: ==================== net: tcp: un-pin tw timer Changes since previous iteration: - Patch 1: update a comment, I copied Erics v7 RvB tag. - Patch 2: move bh off/on into hashdance_schedule and get rid of comment mentioning pinned tw timer. I did not copy Erics RvB tag over from v7 because of the change. - Patch 3 is unchanged, so I kept Erics RvB tag. This is v8 of the series where the tw_timer is un-pinned to get rid of interferences in isolated CPUs setups. First patch makes necessary preparations, existing code relies on TIMER_PINNED to avoid races. Second patch un-pins the TW timer. Could be folded into the first one, but it might help wrt. bisection. Third patch is a minor cleanup to move a helper from .h to the only remaining compilation unit. Tested with iperf3 and stress-ng socket mode. ==================== Reviewed-by: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de> 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 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.
