[PATCH v2] sctp: avoid refreshing heartbeat timer too often

Currently on high rate SCTP streams the heartbeat timer refresh can consume quite a lot of resources as timer updates are costly and it contains a random factor, which a) is also costly and b) invalidates mod_timer() optimization for not editing a timer to the same value. It may even cause the

[RFC PATCH 1/2] security: add hook for netlabel status change notification

This patch adds a new LSM hook called every time the netlbl usage count is changed. This allows an LSM to register a set of hooks on demand according to the netlabel status. Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni --- include/linux/lsm_hooks.h | 6 ++ include/linux/security.h

split allows to move expensive update of 'struct trace_entry' to later phase. Repurpose unused 1st argument of perf_tp_event() to indicate event type. While splitting use temp variable 'rctx' instead of '*rctx' to avoid unnecessary loads done by the compiler due to -fno-strict-aliasing

Boot failure when using NFS on OMAP based evms

Hi All, Currently linux-next is failing to boot via NFS on my AM335x GP evm, AM437x GP evm and Beagle X15. I bisected the problem down to the commit "udp: remove headers from UDP packets before queueing". I had to revert the following three commits to get things working again:
