Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next
Pull networking updates from David Miller:
1) New offloading infrastructure and example 'rocker' driver for
offloading of switching and routing to hardware.
This work was done by a large group of dedicated individuals, not
limited to: Scott Feldman, Jiri Pirko, Thomas Graf, John Fastabend,
Jamal Hadi Salim, Andy Gospodarek, Florian Fainelli, Roopa Prabhu
2) Start making the networking operate on IOV iterators instead of
modifying iov objects in-situ during transfers. Thanks to Al Viro
and Herbert Xu.
3) A set of new netlink interfaces for the TIPC stack, from Richard
Alpe.
4) Remove unnecessary looping during ipv6 routing lookups, from Martin
KaFai Lau.
5) Add PAUSE frame generation support to gianfar driver, from Matei
Pavaluca.
6) Allow for larger reordering levels in TCP, which are easily
achievable in the real world right now, from Eric Dumazet.
7) Add a variable of napi_schedule that doesn't need to disable cpu
interrupts, from Eric Dumazet.
8) Use a doubly linked list to optimize neigh_parms_release(), from
Nicolas Dichtel.
9) Various enhancements to the kernel BPF verifier, and allow eBPF
programs to actually be attached to sockets. From Alexei
Starovoitov.
10) Support TSO/LSO in sunvnet driver, from David L Stevens.
11) Allow controlling ECN usage via routing metrics, from Florian
Westphal.
12) Remote checksum offload, from Tom Herbert.
13) Add split-header receive, BQL, and xmit_more support to amd-xgbe
driver, from Thomas Lendacky.
14) Add MPLS support to openvswitch, from Simon Horman.
15) Support wildcard tunnel endpoints in ipv6 tunnels, from Steffen
Klassert.
16) Do gro flushes on a per-device basis using a timer, from Eric
Dumazet. This tries to resolve the conflicting goals between the
desired handling of bulk vs. RPC-like traffic.
17) Allow userspace to ask for the CPU upon what a packet was
received/steered, via SO_INCOMING_CPU. From Eric Dumazet.
18) Limit GSO packets to half the current congestion window, from Eric
Dumazet.
19) Add a generic helper so that all drivers set their RSS keys in a
consistent way, from Eric Dumazet.
20) Add xmit_more support to enic driver, from Govindarajulu
Varadarajan.
21) Add VLAN packet scheduler action, from Jiri Pirko.
22) Support configurable RSS hash functions via ethtool, from Eyal
Perry.

Merge branch 'rocker-next'
Jiri Pirko says:
====================
introduce rocker switch driver with hardware accelerated datapath api - phase 1: bridge fdb offload
This patchset is just the first phase of switch and switch-ish device
support api in kernel. Note that the api will extend.
So what this patchset includes:
- introduce switchdev api skeleton for implementing switch drivers
- introduce rocker switch driver which implements switchdev api fdb and
bridge set/get link ndos
As to the discussion if there is need to have specific class of device
representing the switch itself, so far we found no need to introduce that.
But we are generally ok with the idea and when the time comes and it will
be needed, it can be easily introduced without any disturbance.
This patchset introduces switch id export through rtnetlink and sysfs,
which is similar to what we have for port id in SR-IOV. I will send iproute2
patchset for showing the switch id for port netdevs once this is applied.
This applies also for the PF_BRIDGE and fdb iproute2 patches.
iproute2 patches are now available here:
https://github.com/jpirko/iproute2-rocker
For detailed description and version history, please see individual patches.
In v4 I reordered the patches leaving rocker patches on the end of the patchset.
In v5 I only fixed whitespace issues of patch #13
We have a TODO for related items we want to work on in near future:
