Jason A. Donenfeld 8a29a50dbd wireguard: receive: use ring buffer for incoming handshakes
commit 886fcee939 upstream.

Apparently the spinlock on incoming_handshake's skb_queue is highly
contended, and a torrent of handshake or cookie packets can bring the
data plane to its knees, simply by virtue of enqueueing the handshake
packets to be processed asynchronously. So, we try switching this to a
ring buffer to hopefully have less lock contention. This alleviates the
problem somewhat, though it still isn't perfect, so future patches will
have to improve this further. However, it at least doesn't completely
diminish the data plane.

README

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 Restructured Text 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.
