[RFC nf-next 0/3] Compact netfilter hooks list

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This series makes a simple change to shrink the netfilter hook list
from a double linked list, to a singly linked list.  Since the hooks
are always traversed in-order, there is no need to maintain a previous
pointer.

This series is being submitted for early feedback. This was jointly
developed by Florian Westphal.

Aaron Conole (1):
  netfilter: replace list_head with single linked list

Florian Westphal (2):
  netfilter: bridge: add and use br_nf_hook_thresh
  netfilter: call nf_hook_state_init with rcu_read_lock held
