From 4aea39c11c610e411768649fdc04777903ebfe07 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Sun, 3 Jun 2012 20:33:21 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] tcp: tcp_make_synack() consumes dst parameter tcp_make_synack() clones the dst, and callers release it. We can avoid two atomic operations per SYNACK if tcp_make_synack() consumes dst instead of cloning it. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S.
