Similar to TCP OOO RX queue, it makes sense to use rb trees to store
IP fragments, so that OOO fragments are inserted faster.
Tested:
- a follow-up patch contains a rather comprehensive ip defrag
self-test (functional)
- ran neper `udp_stream -c -H <host> -F 100 -l 300 -T 20`:
netstat --statistics
Ip:
282078937 total packets received
0 forwarded
0 incoming packets discarded
946760 incoming packets delivered
18743456 requests sent out
101 fragments dropped after timeout
282077129 reassemblies required
944952 packets reassembled ok
262734239 packet reassembles failed
(The numbers/stats above are somewhat better re:
reassemblies vs a kernel without this patchset. More
comprehensive performance testing TBD).

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.
