Documentation: netdev-FAQ: suggest how to post co-dependent series

2020-11-25T04:45:22+00:00

Make an explicit suggestion how to post user space side of kernel
patches to avoid reposts when patchwork groups the wrong patches.

v2: mention the cases unlike iproute2 explicitly

net: switch to the kernel.org patchwork instance

2020-11-12T01:12:00+00:00

Move to the kernel.org patchwork instance, it has significantly
lower latency for accessing from Europe and the US. Other quirks
include the reply bot.

docs: networking: phy: s/2.5 times faster/2.5 times as fast/

2.5 times faster would be 3.5 Gbps (4.375 Gbaud after 8b/10b encoding).

Merge tag 'net-5.10-rc3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net

2020-11-06T19:50:28+00:00

Pull networking fixes from Jakub Kicinski:
 "Networking fixes for 5.10-rc3, including fixes from wireless, can, and
  netfilter subtrees.

  Current merge window - bugs in new features:

   - can: isotp: isotp_rcv_cf(): enable RX timeout handling in
     listen-only mode

  Previous releases - regressions:

   - mac80211:
      - don't require VHT elements for HE on 2.4 GHz
      - fix regression where EAPOL frames were sent in plaintext

   - netfilter:
      - ipset: Update byte and packet counters regardless of whether
        they match

   - ip_tunnel: fix over-mtu packet send by allowing fragmenting even if
     inner packet has IP_DF (don't fragment) set in its header (when
     TUNNEL_DONT_FRAGMENT flag is not set on the tunnel dev)

   - net: fec: fix MDIO probing for some FEC hardware blocks

   - ip6_tunnel: set inner ipproto before ip6_tnl_encap to un-break gso
     support

   - sctp: Fix COMM_LOST/CANT_STR_ASSOC err reporting on big-endian
     platforms, sparse-related fix used the wrong integer size

  Previous releases - always broken:

   - netfilter: use actual socket sk rather than skb sk when routing
     harder

   - r8169: work around short packet hw bug on RTL8125 by padding frames

   - net: ethernet: ti: cpsw: disable PTPv1 hw timestamping
     advertisement, the hardware does not support it

   - chelsio/chtls: fix always leaking ctrl_skb and another leak caused
     by a race condition

   - fix drivers incorrectly writing into skbs on TX:
      - cadence: force nonlinear buffers to be cloned
      - gianfar: Account for Tx PTP timestamp in the skb headroom
      - gianfar: Replace skb_realloc_headroom with skb_cow_head for PTP

   - can: flexcan:
      - remove FLEXCAN_QUIRK_DISABLE_MECR quirk for LS1021A
      - add ECC initialization for VF610 and LX2160A
      - flexcan_remove(): disable wakeup completely

   - can: fix packet echo functionality:
      - peak_canfd: fix echo management when loopback is on
      - make sure skbs are not freed in IRQ context in case they need to
        be dropped
      - always clone the skbs to make sure they have a reference on the
        socket, and prevent it from disappearing
      - fix real payload length return value for RTR frames

   - can: j1939: return failure on bind if netdev is down, rather than
     waiting indefinitely

  Misc:

   - IPv6: reply ICMP error if the first fragment don't include all
     headers to improve compliance with RFC 8200"

ice: docs fix a devlink info that broke a table

2020-10-28T17:41:15+00:00

Changeset 410d06879c01 ("ice: add the DDP Track ID to devlink info")
added description for a new devlink field, but forgot to add
one of its columns, causing it to break:

	.../Documentation/networking/devlink/ice.rst:15: WARNING: Error parsing content block for the "list-table" directive: uniform two-level bullet list expected, but row 11 does not contain the same number of items as row 1 (3 vs 4).

	.. list-table:: devlink info versions implemented

...
	    * - ``fw.app.bundle_id``
	      - 0xc0000001
	      - Unique identifier for the DDP package loaded in the device. Also
	        referred to as the DDP Track ID. Can be used to uniquely identify
	        the specific DDP package.

Add the type field to the ``fw.app.bundle_id`` row.

docs: net: statistics.rst: remove a duplicated kernel-doc

2020-10-28T17:26:10+00:00

include/linux/ethtool.h is included twice with kernel-doc,
both to document ethtool_pause_stats(). The first one is
at statistics.rst, and the second one at ethtool-netlink.rst.

Replace one of the references to use the name of the
function. The automarkup.py extension should create the
cross-references.

Solves this warning:

	../Documentation/networking/ethtool-netlink.rst: WARNING: Duplicate C declaration, also defined in 'networking/statistics'.
	Declaration is 'ethtool_pause_stats'.
