Merge branch 'af_unix-replace-unix_table_lock-with-per-hash-locks'
Kuniyuki Iwashima says: ==================== af_unix: Replace unix_table_lock with per-hash locks. The hash table of AF_UNIX sockets is protected by a single big lock, unix_table_lock. This series replaces it with small per-hash locks. 1st - 2nd : Misc refactoring 3rd - 8th : Separate BSD/abstract address logics 9th - 11th : Prep to save a hash in each socket 12th : Replace the big lock 13th : Speed up autobind() Note to maintainers: The 12th patch adds two kinds of Sparse warnings on patchwork: about unix_table_double_lock/unlock() We can avoid this by adding two apparent acquires/releases annotations, but there are the same kinds of warnings about unix_state_double_lock(). about unix_next_socket() and unix_seq_stop() (/proc/net/unix) This is because Sparse does not understand logic in unix_next_socket(), which leaves a spin lock held until it returns NULL. Also, tcp_seq_stop() causes a warning for the same reason. These warnings seem reasonable, but let me know if there is any better way. Please see [0] for details.
