From 1cbb3380ef683f742876f48e3739b3df4ea9e168 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Graf Date: Tue, 5 Jul 2005 14:13:41 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] [NET]: Reduce size of sk_buff by 4 bytes Reduce local_df to a bit field and ip_summed to a 2 bits field thus saving 13 bits. Move bit fields, packet type, and protocol into the spare area between the priority and the destructor. Saves 4 bytes on both, 32bit and 64bit architectures.
