From 9d6a15c3f23bcf0b0e6c6efd7d19f52d960a8697 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dominik Brodowski Date: Tue, 13 Mar 2018 19:29:43 +0100 Subject: net: socket: add __sys_socket() helper; remove in-kernel call to syscall Using the net-internal helper __sys_socket() allows us to avoid the internal calls to the sys_socket() 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.
