From 16b304f3404f8e0243d5ee2b70b68767b7b59b2b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Pravin B Shelar Date: Thu, 15 Aug 2013 15:31:06 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] netlink: Eliminate kmalloc in netlink dump operation. Following patch stores struct netlink_callback in netlink_sock to avoid allocating and freeing it on every netlink dump msg. Only one dump operation is allowed for a given socket at a time therefore we can safely convert cb pointer to cb struct inside netlink_sock. Signed-off-by: Pravin B Shelar Signed-off-by: David S.
