strp_unpause queues strp_work in order to parse any messages that arrived while the strparser was paused. However, the process invoking strp_unpause could eagerly parse a buffered message itself if it held the sock lock. __strp_unpause is an alternative to strp_pause that avoids the scheduling overhead that results when a receiving thread unpauses the strparser and waits for the next message to be delivered by the workqueue thread. This patch more than doubled the IOPS achieved in a benchmark of NBD traffic encrypted using ktls. Signed-off-by: Doron Roberts-Kedes <doronrk@fb.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
