From 25e290eed9c653cc90ac675d64b30b66cffce82f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dominik Brodowski Date: Tue, 13 Mar 2018 19:36:54 +0100 Subject: net: socket: add __sys_listen() helper; remove in-kernel call to syscall Using the net-internal helper __sys_listen() allows us to avoid the internal calls to the sys_listen() syscall. This patch is part of a series which removes in-kernel calls to syscalls. On this basis, the syscall entry path can be streamlined.
