[PATCH net-next 5/6] tcp: Simplify the allocation of slab caches
Posted by Kunwu Chan 2 years ago
Use the new KMEM_CACHE() macro instead of direct kmem_cache_create
to simplify the creation of SLAB caches.
And change cache name from 'tcp_bind_bucket' to 'inet_bind_bucket',
'tcp_bind2_bucket' to 'inet_bind2_bucket'.

I would prefer we do not do this.

dccp is also using a kmem_cache_create() of "struct inet_bind_bucket"

We want different caches for TCP and DCCP.

Same here.

When i do my work, i found this too, so i just change the cache name in tcp.

For distinguishment, I'll delete this patch in next patch series.
