Subject: [RFC PATCH net-next 6/8] net: core: propagate SKB lists through packet_type lookup
Date: Tue, 19 Apr 2016 14:36:30 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5716345E.3050206@solarflare.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <5716338E.4050003@solarflare.com>

This could maybe be made more efficient if we first split the list based on
 skb->protocol, and then did ptype lookup for each sublist.  Unfortunately,
 there are things liks sch_handle_ingress and the rx_handlers that can
 produce different results per packet.
