Subject: [Patch net-next] net: add doc for ip_early_demux sysctl
Date: Thu, 6 Jun 2013 13:10:23 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1370495423-13755-1-git-send-email-amwang@redhat.com> (raw)
From: Cong Wang <amwang@redhat.com>
commit 6648bd7e0e62c0c8c03b (ipv4: Add sysctl knob to control
early socket demux) introduced such sysctl, but forgot to add
doc into Documentation/networking/ip-sysctl.txt. This patch adds it.
Basically I grab the doc from the description of commit 41063e9dd11956f2d285
(ipv4: Early TCP socket demux.) and the above commit.
