Subject: [PATCH net-next 6/7] tcp: populate inet->cork.fl.u.ip6 in tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock()
Date: Fri,  6 Feb 2026 17:34:25 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260206173426.1638518-7-edumazet@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260206173426.1638518-1-edumazet@google.com>

As explained in commit 85d05e281712 ("ipv6: change inet6_sk_rebuild_header()
to use inet->cork.fl.u.ip6"):

TCP v6 spends a good amount of time rebuilding a fresh fl6 at each
transmit in inet6_csk_xmit()/inet6_csk_route_socket().

TCP v4 caches the information in inet->cork.fl.u.ip4 instead.

After this patch, passive TCP ipv6 flows have correctly initialized
inet->cork.fl.u.ip6 structure.
