"Here are some highlights from the 2065 networking commits that
happened this development cycle:

1) XDP support for IXGBE (John Fastabend) and thunderx (Sunil Kowuri)

2) Add a generic XDP driver, so that anyone can test XDP even if they
lack a networking device whose driver has explicit XDP support
(me).

3) Sparc64 now has an eBPF JIT too (me)

4) Add a BPF program testing framework via BPF_PROG_TEST_RUN (Alexei
Starovoitov)

5) Make netfitler network namespace teardown less expensive (Florian
Westphal)

6) Add symmetric hashing support to nft_hash (Laura Garcia Liebana)

7) Implement NAPI and GRO in netvsc driver (Stephen Hemminger)

8) Support TC flower offload statistics in mlxsw (Arkadi Sharshevsky)

9) Multiqueue support in stmmac driver (Joao Pinto)

10) Remove TCP timewait recycling, it never really could possibly work
well in the real world and timestamp randomization really zaps any
hint of usability this feature had (Soheil Hassas Yeganeh)

11) Support level3 vs level4 ECMP route hashing in ipv4 (Nikolay
Aleksandrov)

12) Add socket busy poll support to epoll (Sridhar Samudrala)

Merge branch 'qmap-mux'

Daniele Palmas says:

====================
net: usb: qmi_wwan: add qmap mux protocol support

This patch adds support for qmap mux protocol available in recent
Qualcomm based modems.

The qmap mux protocol can be used for multiplexing data packets in
order to have multiple ip streams through the same physical device.

Two new sysfs files are added for adding/removing the qmap mux based
interfaces (named qmimux):

/sys/class/net/<iface>/qmi/add_mux
/sys/class/net/<iface>/qmi/del_mux

Main patch author is Bjørn Mork <bjorn@mork.no>

An userspace implementation of the qmi requests needed to support
multiple ip streams is already available (namely libqmi since
version 1.18.0).

The qmap mux feature has been recently implemented in Codeaurora
gobinet out-of-kernel driver that was the inspiration for this
development.

Tests have been performed with Telit LE922A6 (PID 0x1040)

Merge branch 'qmi_wwan_MDM9x30'

Bjørn Mork says:

====================
net: qmi_wwan: MDM9x30 support

We add new device IDs all the time, often without any testing on
actual hardware. This is usually OK as long as the device is similar
to already supported devices, using the same chipset and firmware
basis. But the Sierra Wireless MC7455 is an example of a new chipset
generation. Adding it based on assumed similarity with its ancestors
proved too optimistic.

This series adds the missing bits and pieces necessary to support LTE
Advanced modems based on the Qualcomm MDM9x30 chipset. A big thanks to
Sierra Wireless for providing MC7455 samples for testing

The most important change is the "raw-ip" support. The series also
adds a necessary control request, removes an unsupported device ID,
and adds a driver specific entry in MAINTAINERS.

A few random notes about "raw-ip":

"I rather have these all running in raw IP mode. The 802.3 framing is
utterly stupid." - Marcel Holtmann in Jan 2012 [1]

Marcel was right. I should have listened to him. What more can I say?

The 802.3 framing has provided a steady supply of firmware bugs for
many years. We've added driver workarounds for many of these, but
there are still known bugs where the workaround is so yucky that we
have refused to apply it. But all that is over now. The latest
generation Qualcomm chips no longer supports 802.3 framing at all.

I had two open questions regarding the "raw-ip" userspace API:

1) Should we continue faking an ethernet device, even if we don't use
the L2 headers on the USB link anymore?

There was a vote in favour of the "headerless" device. This is the
honest representation of the hardware/firmware interface.

2) What input should the driver base its framing on?

Snooping or directly manipulating QMI is considered out of the
question. We delegated all QMI handling to userspace from the
beginning.

We have so far required userspace to configure the firmware for
"802.3" framing, or fail if that proved impossible. This
requirement is now changed. Userspace must now inform the driver
if it negotiates "raw-ip" framing. Two alternative interfaces were
proposed:
- ethtool private driver flag, or
- sysfs file

The NetworkManager/ModemManager developers were in favour of the
sysfs alternative.

These questions (or any other you migh have :) are of course still
open. This patch set presents the solutions I currently prefer,
considering the above.

All comments are appreciated, even simple '+1' ones.
