Always prefer the avx2 implementation if its available.
This greatly improves insertion performance (each insertion
checks if the new element would overlap with an existing one):
time nft -f - <<EOF
table ip pipapo {
set s {
typeof ip saddr . tcp dport
flags interval
size 800000
elements = { 10.1.1.1 - 10.1.1.4 . 3996,
[.. 800k entries elided .. ]
before:
real 1m55.993s
user 0m2.505s
sys 1m53.296s
after:
real 0m42.586s
user 0m2.554s
sys 0m39.811s
Fold patch from Sebastian:
kernel_fpu_begin_mask()/ _end() remains in pipapo_get_avx2() where it is
required.
A followup patch will add local_lock_t to struct nft_pipapo_scratch in
order to protect the map pointer. The lock can not be acquired in
preemption disabled context which is what kernel_fpu_begin*() does.

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 reStructuredText 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.
