Changes since v2: - fixed panic if building with just up to patch 3 applied Marcelo Ricardo Leitner (8): sctp: add sctp_packet_singleton sctp: factor out sctp_outq_select_transport sctp: move the flush of ctrl chunks into its own function sctp: move outq data rtx code out of sctp_outq_flush sctp: move flushing of data chunks out of sctp_outq_flush sctp: move transport flush code out of sctp_outq_flush sctp: make use of gfp on retransmissions sctp: rework switch cases in sctp_outq_flush_data net/sctp/outqueue.c | 593 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++------------------------- 1 file changed, 311 insertions(+), 282 deletions(-) -- 2.14.3 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-sctp" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
