Subject: [PATCH net-2.6.26][SOCK]: Add some notes about per-bind-bucket sock lookup.
Date: Mon, 14 Apr 2008 13:39:46 +0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <48032662.30001@openvz.org> (raw)

I was asked about "why don't we perform a sk_net filtering in
bind_conflict calls, like we do in other sock lookup places"
for a couple of times.

Can we please add a comment about why we do not need one?
