sys/netinet6 : nd6.c
Log message:
Run the ND6 expiry timer without kernel lock
Added in 2017 to
Reduce contention on the NET_LOCK() by moving the nd6 address expiration
task to the `softnettq`.
This should no longer be needed thanks to sys/net/if.c r1.652 in 2022:
Activate parallel IP forwarding. Start 4 softnet tasks. Limit the
usage to the number of CPUs.
Nothing in nd6_expire() or nd6_expire_timer_update() requires protection by
the kernel lock.
The interface list and per-interface address lists remain protected by the
net lock.
