      net: rps: fix the support for PPPOE · 5dd17e08
      Changli Gao 提交于
      The upper protocol numbers of PPPOE are different, and should be treated
      specially.

      af_unix: dont send SCM_CREDENTIALS by default · 16e57262
      Eric Dumazet 提交于
      Since commit 7361c36c (af_unix: Allow credentials to work across
      user and pid namespaces) af_unix performance dropped a lot.
      
      This is because we now take a reference on pid and cred in each write(),
      and release them in read(), usually done from another process,
      eventually from another cpu. This triggers false sharing.

      This patch includes SCM_CREDENTIALS information in a af_unix message/skb
      only if requested by the sender, [man 7 unix for details how to include
      ancillary data using sendmsg() system call]
      
      Note: This might break buggy applications that expected SCM_CREDENTIAL
      from an unaware write() system call, and receiver not using SO_PASSCRED
      socket option.
      
      If SOCK_PASSCRED is set on source or destination socket, we still
      include credentials for mere write() syscalls.
      
      Performance boost in hackbench : more than 50% gain on a 16 thread
      machine (2 quad-core cpus, 2 threads per core)
