In order to not slow down fast path, our goal is to use the normal socket spinlock instead of custom synchronization. All we need to ensure is that tcp_get_info() is not called with ehash lock, which might dead lock, since packet processing would acquire the spinlocks in reverse way. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
