Linus Torvalds 1722389b0d A lot of networking people were at a conference last week, busy
catching COVID, so relatively short PR. Including fixes from bpf
 and netfilter.
 
 Current release - regressions:
 
  - tcp: process the 3rd ACK with sk_socket for TFO and MPTCP
 
 Current release - new code bugs:
 
  - l2tp: protect session IDR and tunnel session list with one lock,
    make sure the state is coherent to avoid a warning
 
  - eth: bnxt_en: update xdp_rxq_info in queue restart logic
 
  - eth: airoha: fix location of the MBI_RX_AGE_SEL_MASK field
 
 Previous releases - regressions:
 
  - xsk: require XDP_UMEM_TX_METADATA_LEN to actuate tx_metadata_len,
    the field reuses previously un-validated pad
 
 Previous releases - always broken:
 
  - tap/tun: drop short frames to prevent crashes later in the stack
 
  - eth: ice: add a per-VF limit on number of FDIR filters
 
  - af_unix: disable MSG_OOB handling for sockets in sockmap/sockhash

README

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 reStructuredText markup notation.

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.
