Linux kernel source tree
If more than 16000 inflight AF_UNIX sockets exist and the garbage
collector is not running, unix_(dgram|stream)_sendmsg() call unix_gc().
Also, they wait for unix_gc() to complete.
In unix_gc(), all inflight AF_UNIX sockets are traversed at least once,
and more if they are the GC candidate. Thus, sendmsg() significantly
slows down with too many inflight AF_UNIX sockets.
However, if a process sends data with no AF_UNIX FD, the sendmsg() call
does not need to wait for GC. After this change, only the process that
meets the condition below will be blocked under such a situation.
1) cmsg contains AF_UNIX socket
2) more than 32 AF_UNIX sent by the same user are still inflight
Note that even a sendmsg() call that does not meet the condition but has
AF_UNIX FD will be blocked later in unix_scm_to_skb() by the spinlock,
but we allow that as a bonus for sane users.
The results below are the time spent in unix_dgram_sendmsg() sending 1
byte of data with no FD 4096 times on a host where 32K inflight AF_UNIX
sockets exist.
Without series: the sane sendmsg() needs to wait gc unreasonably.

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.
