When an UDP application switches from AF_INET to AF_INET6 sockets, we have a small performance degradation for IPv4 communications because of extra cache line misses to access ipv6only information. This can also be noticed for TCP listeners, as ipv6_only_sock() is also used from __inet_lookup_listener()->compute_score() This is magnified when SO_REUSEPORT is used. Move ipv6only into struct sock_common so that it is available at no extra cost in lookups. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
