Linus Torvalds 5bbcc0f595 Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next
Pull networking updates from David Miller:
 "Highlights:

   1) Maintain the TCP retransmit queue using an rbtree, with 1GB
      windows at 100Gb this really has become necessary. From Eric
      Dumazet.

   2) Multi-program support for cgroup+bpf, from Alexei Starovoitov.

   3) Perform broadcast flooding in hardware in mv88e6xxx, from Andrew
      Lunn.

   4) Add meter action support to openvswitch, from Andy Zhou.

   5) Add a data meta pointer for BPF accessible packets, from Daniel
      Borkmann.

   6) Namespace-ify almost all TCP sysctl knobs, from Eric Dumazet.

   7) Turn on Broadcom Tags in b53 driver, from Florian Fainelli.

   8) More work to move the RTNL mutex down, from Florian Westphal.

   9) Add 'bpftool' utility, to help with bpf program introspection.
      From Jakub Kicinski.

  10) Add new 'cpumap' type for XDP_REDIRECT action, from Jesper
      Dangaard Brouer.

  11) Support 'blocks' of transformations in the packet scheduler which
      can span multiple network devices, from Jiri Pirko.

  12) TC flower offload support in cxgb4, from Kumar Sanghvi.

  13) Priority based stream scheduler for SCTP, from Marcelo Ricardo
      Leitner.

  14) Thunderbolt networking driver, from Amir Levy and Mika Westerberg.

  15) Add RED qdisc offloadability, and use it in mlxsw driver. From
      Nogah Frankel.

  16) eBPF based device controller for cgroup v2, from Roman Gushchin.

  17) Add some fundamental tracepoints for TCP, from Song Liu.

  18) Remove garbage collection from ipv6 route layer, this is a
      significant accomplishment. From Wei Wang.

  19) Add multicast route offload support to mlxsw, from Yotam Gigi"

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

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.
