From a43912ab1925788765208da5cd664b6f8e011d08 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Wed, 23 Sep 2009 10:28:33 +0000 Subject: tunnel: eliminate recursion field It seems recursion field from "struct ip_tunnel" is not anymore needed. recursion prevention is done at the upper level (in dev_queue_xmit()), since we use HARD_TX_LOCK protection for tunnels. This avoids a cache line ping pong on "struct ip_tunnel" : This structure should be now mostly read on xmit and receive paths. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S.
