As presented last month in our "BIG TCP" talk at netdev 0x15, we plan using IPv6 jumbograms. One of the minor problem we talked about is the fact that ip6_parse_tlv() is currently using tables to list known tlvs, thus using potentially expensive indirect calls. While we could mitigate this cost using macros from indirect_call_wrapper.h, we also can get rid of the tables and let the compiler emit optimized code.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
