Merge branch 'ipv4-less-uses-of-shared-ip-generator'
Eric Dumazet says: ==================== ipv4: less uses of shared IP generator From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> We keep receiving research reports based on linux IPID generation. Before breaking part of the Internet by switching to pure random generator, this series reduces the need for the shared IP generator for TCP sockets. ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220127011022.1274803-1-eric.dumazet@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
