Subject: [PATCH linux v3 0/1] Optimize network interfaces creation
Date: Tue,  7 Oct 2014 11:02:38 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1412672559-5256-1-git-send-email-nicolas.dichtel@6wind.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20141006.181448.1696747135961247651.davem@davemloft.net>

When a lot of netdevices are created, one of the bottleneck is the creation
of proc entries. This serie aims to accelerate this part.

I'm not sure against which tree this patch should be done. I've done it against
linux.git.

v2 -> v3
 - restore credit to Thierry Herbelot for the initial idea.

RFCv1 -> v2
 - use a red-black tree instead of a hash list

Comments are welcome.
