[PATCH] INET : IPV4 UDP lookups converted to a 2 pass algo
Some people want to have many UDP sockets, binded to a single port but
many different addresses. We currently hash all those sockets into a
single chain. Processing of incoming packets is very expensive,
because the whole chain must be examined to find the best match.
I chose in this patch to hash UDP sockets with a hash function that
take into account both their port number and address : This has a
drawback because we need two lookups : one with a given address, one
with a wildcard (null) address.
