      sock: avoid dirtying sk_stamp, if possible · 6c7c98ba
      Paolo Abeni authored
      sock_recv_ts_and_drops() unconditionally set sk->sk_stamp for
      every packet, even if the SOCK_TIMESTAMP flag is not set in the
      related socket.
      If selinux is enabled, this cause a cache miss for every packet
      since sk->sk_stamp and sk->sk_security share the same cacheline.
      With this change sk_stamp is set only if the SOCK_TIMESTAMP
      flag is set, and is cleared for the first packet, so that the user
      perceived behavior is unchanged.
      
      This gives up to 5% speed-up under udp-flood with small packets.
