  18) Allow installing TCP MD5 rules using prefixes, from Ivan
      Delalande.

  19) Add XDP support to Intel i40e driver, from Björn Töpel

  20) Add support for TC flower offload in nfp driver, from Simon
      Horman, Pieter Jansen van Vuuren, Benjamin LaHaise, Jakub
      Kicinski, and Bert van Leeuwen.

  21) IPSEC offloading support in mlx5, from Ilan Tayari.

  22) Add HW PTP support to macb driver, from Rafal Ozieblo.

  23) Networking refcount_t conversions, From Elena Reshetova.

  24) Add sock_ops support to BPF, from Lawrence Brako. This is useful
      for tuning the TCP sockopt settings of a group of applications,
      currently via CGROUPs"

staging: most: net: hold used net device

2017-06-23T16:32:46+00:00

This adds the dev_hold and dev_put calls to the functions
aim_resume_tx_channel, aim_rx_data and on_netinfo to postpone the
unregistration of the used net device.

staging: most: net: protect consistency of the state

2017-06-23T16:32:46+00:00

This introduces the mutex that protects the consistency between the
tx.linked, rx.linked and the presence of the net divice.

Additionally, this patch optimizes the setup of the ch->linked in the
function aim_probe_channel.

staging: most: net: make net device lifetime obvious

2017-06-23T16:32:46+00:00

The function aim_probe_channel calls only one of the functions
alloc_netdev and register_netdev per run.

Correspondingly, the function aim_disconnect_channel calls only one of
the functions unregister_netdev and free_netdev per run.

This patch makes it obvious by using the 'else' part of the 'if'
statement.

networking: introduce and use skb_put_data()

2017-06-16T15:48:37+00:00

A common pattern with skb_put() is to just want to memcpy()
some data into the new space, introduce skb_put_data() for
this.

An spatch similar to the one for skb_put_zero() converts many
of the places using it:

    @@
    identifier p, p2;
    expression len, skb, data;
    type t, t2;
    @@
    (
    -p = skb_put(skb, len);
    +p = skb_put_data(skb, data, len);
    |
    -p = (t)skb_put(skb, len);
    +p = skb_put_data(skb, data, len);
    )
    (
    p2 = (t2)p;
    -memcpy(p2, data, len);
    |
    -memcpy(p, data, len);
    )

    @@
    type t, t2;
    identifier p, p2;
    expression skb, data;
    @@
    t *p;
    ...
    (
    -p = skb_put(skb, sizeof(t));
    +p = skb_put_data(skb, data, sizeof(t));
    |
    -p = (t *)skb_put(skb, sizeof(t));
    +p = skb_put_data(skb, data, sizeof(t));
    )
    (
    p2 = (t2)p;
    -memcpy(p2, data, sizeof(*p));
    |
    -memcpy(p, data, sizeof(*p));
    )

    @@
    expression skb, len, data;
    @@
    -memcpy(skb_put(skb, len), data, len);

staging: most: allocate private net_dev_context with the alloc_netdev

2017-05-15T09:59:10+00:00

This moves the allocation of the net_dev to the aim_probe_channel() and
uses the parameter sizeof_priv of the function alloc_netdev to reserve
the space for the struct net_dev_context.

As a side effect, the nd->dev always points to the existing net_dev.
