We currently have one tcp bind table (bhash) which hashes by port number only. In the socket bind path, we check for bind conflicts by traversing the specified port's inet_bind2_bucket while holding the bucket's spinlock (see inet_csk_get_port() and inet_csk_bind_conflict()). In instances where there are tons of sockets hashed to the same port at different addresses, checking for a bind conflict is time-intensive and can cause softirq cpu lockups, as well as stops new tcp connections since __inet_inherit_port() also contests for the spinlock. This patch proposes adding a second bind table, bhash2, that hashes by port and ip address. Searching the bhash2 table leads to significantly faster conflict resolution and less time holding the spinlock.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
