Linux kernel source tree
Like ppp_generic.c, convert the PPPoE socket hash table to use RCU for lookups and a spinlock for updates. This removes rwlock usage and allows lockless readers on the fast path. - Mark hash table and list pointers as __rcu. - Use spin_lock() to protect writers. - Readers use rcu_dereference() under rcu_read_lock(). All known callers of get_item() already hold the RCU read lock, so no additional locking is needed. - get_item() now uses refcount_inc_not_zero() instead of sock_hold() to safely take a reference. This prevents crashes if a socket is already in the process of being freed (sk_refcnt == 0). - Set SOCK_RCU_FREE to defer socket freeing until after an RCU grace period. - Move skb_queue_purge() into sk_destruct callback to ensure purge happens after an RCU grace period.

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 reStructuredText 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.
