  • Many struct file_operations in the kernel can be "const". Marking them const
    moves these to the .rodata section, which avoids false sharing with potential
    dirty data. In addition it'll catch accidental writes at compile time to
    these shared resources.

  • This is part of the grand scheme to eliminate the qlen
    member of skb_queue_head, and subsequently remove the
    'list' member of sk_buff.

    Most users of skb_queue_len() want to know if the queue is
    empty or not, and that's trivially done with skb_queue_empty()
    which doesn't use the skb_queue_head->qlen member and instead
    uses the queue list emptyness as the test.

  • 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!
