Linux kernel source tree
This commit adds a per netns hash table for AF_UNIX, which size is fixed
as UNIX_HASH_SIZE for now.
The first implementation defines a per-netns hash table as a single array
of lock and list:
struct unix_hashbucket {
spinlock_t lock;
struct hlist_head head;
};
struct netns_unix {
struct unix_hashbucket *hash;
...
};
But, Eric pointed out memory cost that the structure has holes because of
sizeof(spinlock_t), which is 4 (or more if LOCKDEP is enabled). [0] It
could be expensive on a host with thousands of netns and few AF_UNIX
sockets. For this reason, a per-netns hash table uses two dense arrays.
struct unix_table {
spinlock_t *locks;
struct hlist_head *buckets;
};
struct netns_unix {
struct unix_table table;
...
};
Note the length of the list has a significant impact rather than lock
contention, so having shared locks can be an option. But, per-netns
locks and lists still perform better than the global locks and per-netns
lists. [1]
Also, this patch adds a change so that struct netns_unix disappears from
struct net if CONFIG_UNIX is disabled.

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.
