Linus Torvalds 4de593fb96 Networking fixes for 5.15-rc4, including fixes from mac80211, netfilter
and bpf.
 
 Current release - regressions:
 
  - bpf, cgroup: assign cgroup in cgroup_sk_alloc when called from
    interrupt
 
  - mdio: revert mechanical patches which broke handling of optional
    resources
 
  - dev_addr_list: prevent address duplication
 
 Previous releases - regressions:
 
  - sctp: break out if skb_header_pointer returns NULL in sctp_rcv_ootb
    (NULL deref)
 
  - Revert "mac80211: do not use low data rates for data frames with no
    ack flag", fixing broadcast transmissions
 
  - mac80211: fix use-after-free in CCMP/GCMP RX
 
  - netfilter: include zone id in tuple hash again, minimize collisions
 
  - netfilter: nf_tables: unlink table before deleting it (race -> UAF)
 
  - netfilter: log: work around missing softdep backend module
 
  - mptcp: don't return sockets in foreign netns
 
  - sched: flower: protect fl_walk() with rcu (race -> UAF)
 
  - ixgbe: fix NULL pointer dereference in ixgbe_xdp_setup
 
  - smsc95xx: fix stalled rx after link change
 
  - enetc: fix the incorrect clearing of IF_MODE bits
 
  - ipv4: fix rtnexthop len when RTA_FLOW is present
 
  - dsa: mv88e6xxx: 6161: use correct MAX MTU config method for this SKU
 
  - e100: fix length calculation & buffer overrun in ethtool::get_regs
 
 Previous releases - always broken:
 
  - mac80211: fix using stale frag_tail skb pointer in A-MSDU tx
 
  - mac80211: drop frames from invalid MAC address in ad-hoc mode
 
  - af_unix: fix races in sk_peer_pid and sk_peer_cred accesses
    (race -> UAF)
 
  - bpf, x86: Fix bpf mapping of atomic fetch implementation
 
  - bpf: handle return value of BPF_PROG_TYPE_STRUCT_OPS prog
 
  - netfilter: ip6_tables: zero-initialize fragment offset
 
  - mhi: fix error path in mhi_net_newlink
 
  - af_unix: return errno instead of NULL in unix_create1() when
    over the fs.file-max limit
 
 Misc:
 
  - bpf: exempt CAP_BPF from checks against bpf_jit_limit
 
  - netfilter: conntrack: make max chain length random, prevent guessing
    buckets by attackers
 
  - netfilter: nf_nat_masquerade: make async masq_inet6_event handling
    generic, defer conntrack walk to work queue (prevent hogging RTNL lock)

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

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
