  • a new boolean flag no_autobind is added to structure proto to avoid the autobind
    calls when the protocol is TCP. Then sock_rps_record_flow() is called int the
    TCP's sendmsg() and sendpage() pathes.

  • I noticed that some of 'struct proto_ops' used in the kernel may share
    a cache line used by locks or other heavily modified data. (default
    linker alignement is 32 bytes, and L1_CACHE_LINE is 64 or 128 at
    least)

    This patch makes sure a 'struct proto_ops' can be declared as const,
    so that all cpus can share all parts of it without false sharing.

    This is not mandatory : a driver can still use a read/write structure
    if it needs to (and eventually a __read_mostly)

    I made a global stubstitute to change all existing occurences to make
    them const.

    This should reduce the possibility of false sharing on SMP, and
    speedup some socket system calls.

  • Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
    even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
    archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
    3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
    git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
    infrastructure for it.

    Let it rip!
