ip_rcv_finish_core(), if it does not drop, sets skb->dst by either early demux or route lookup. The last step, calling dst_input(skb), is left to the caller; in the listified case, we split to form sublists with a common dst, but then ip_sublist_rcv_finish() just calls dst_input(skb) in a loop. The next step in listification would thus be to add a list_input() method to struct dst_entry. Early demux is an indirect call based on iph->protocol; this is another opportunity for listification which is not taken here (it would require slicing up ip_rcv_finish_core() to allow splitting on protocol changes).

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.
