David S. Miller 8ca712c373 Merge branch 'net-speedup-netns-create-delete-time'
Eric Dumazet says:

====================
net: speedup netns create/delete time

When rate of netns creation/deletion is high enough,
we observe softlockups in cleanup_net() caused by huge list
of netns and way too many rcu_barrier() calls.

This patch series does some optimizations in kobject,
and add batching to tunnels so that netns dismantles are
less costly.

IPv6 addrlabels also get a per netns list, and tcp_metrics
also benefit from batch flushing.

This gives me one order of magnitude gain.
(~50 ms -> ~5 ms for one netns create/delete pair)

Tested:

for i in `seq 1 40`
do
 (for j in `seq 1 100` ; do  unshare -n /bin/true >/dev/null ; done) &
done
wait ; grep net_namespace /proc/slabinfo

Before patch series :

$ time ./add_del_unshare.sh
net_namespace        116    258   5504    1    2 : tunables    8    4    0 : slabdata    116    258      0

real	3m24.910s
user	0m0.747s
sys	0m43.162s

After :
$ time ./add_del_unshare.sh
net_namespace        135    291   5504    1    2 : tunables    8    4    0 : slabdata    135    291      0

real	0m22.117s
user	0m0.728s
sys	0m35.328s

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
