Using the net-internal helper __sys_sendto() allows us to avoid the internal calls to the sys_sendto() syscall. This patch is part of a series which removes in-kernel calls to syscalls. On this basis, the syscall entry path can be streamlined. For details, see http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180325162527.GA17492@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: David S.
