A sorted flow list is only needed to drop packets in the biggest flow when hitting the overmemory condition. By scanning flows only when needed, we can avoid paying the cost of maintaining the list under normal conditions In order to avoid scanning lots of empty flows and touching too many cold cache lines, a bitmap of flows with backlog is maintained Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@nbd.name> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20201218184718.93650-3-nbd@nbd.name Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
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.
