====================
Netfilter/IPVS updates for net-next

The following patchset contains Netfilter/IPVS updates for your net-next
tree. This batch comes with more input sanitization for xtables to
address bug reports from fuzzers, preparation works to the flowtable
infrastructure and assorted updates. In no particular order, they are:

1) Make sure userspace provides a valid standard target verdict, from
   Florian Westphal.

2) Sanitize error target size, also from Florian.

3) Validate that last rule in basechain matches underflow/policy since
   userspace assumes this when decoding the ruleset blob that comes
   from the kernel, from Florian.

4) Consolidate hook entry checks through xt_check_table_hooks(),
   patch from Florian.

5) Cap ruleset allocations at 512 mbytes, 134217728 rules and reject
   very large compat offset arrays, so we have a reasonable upper limit
   and fuzzers don't exercise the oom-killer. Patches from Florian.

6) Several WARN_ON checks on xtables mutex helper, from Florian.

7) xt_rateest now has a hashtable per net, from Cong Wang.

8) Consolidate counter allocation in xt_counters_alloc(), from Florian.

9) Earlier xt_table_unlock() call in {ip,ip6,arp,eb}tables, patch
   from Xin Long.

10) Set FLOW_OFFLOAD_DIR_* to IP_CT_DIR_* definitions, patch from
    Felix Fietkau.

11) Consolidate code through flow_offload_fill_dir(), also from Felix.

12) Inline ip6_dst_mtu_forward() just like ip_dst_mtu_maybe_forward()
    to remove a dependency with flowtable and ipv6.ko, from Felix.

13) Cache mtu size in flow_offload_tuple object, this is safe for
    forwarding as f87c10a8aa describes, from Felix.

14) Rename nf_flow_table.c to nf_flow_table_core.o, to simplify too
    modular infrastructure, from Felix.

15) Add rt0, rt2 and rt4 IPv6 routing extension support, patch from
    Ahmed Abdelsalam.

16) Remove unused parameter in nf_conncount_count(), from Yi-Hung Wei.

17) Support for counting only to nf_conncount infrastructure, patch
    from Yi-Hung Wei.

18) Add strict NFT_CT_{SRC_IP,DST_IP,SRC_IP6,DST_IP6} key datatypes
    to nft_ct.

19) Use boolean as return value from ipt_ah and from IPVS too, patch
    from Gustavo A. R. Silva.

20) Remove useless parameters in nfnl_acct_overquota() and
    nf_conntrack_broadcast_help(), from Taehee Yoo.

21) Use ipv6_addr_is_multicast() from xt_cluster, also from Taehee Yoo.

22) Statify nf_tables_obj_lookup_byhandle, patch from Fengguang Wu.

23) Fix typo in xt_limit, from Geert Uytterhoeven.

24) Do no use VLAs in Netfilter code, again from Gustavo.

25) Use ADD_COUNTER from ebtables, from Taehee Yoo.

26) Bitshift support for CONNMARK and MARK targets, from Jack Ma.

27) Use pr_*() and add pr_fmt(), from Arushi Singhal.

28) Add synproxy support to ctnetlink.

29) ICMP type and IGMP matching support for ebtables, patches from
    Matthias Schiffer.

30) Support for the revision infrastructure to ebtables, from
    Bernie Harris.

31) String match support for ebtables, also from Bernie.

32) Documentation for the new flowtable infrastructure.

33) Use generic comparison functions in ebt_stp, from Joe Perches.

34) Demodularize filter chains in nftables.

35) Register conntrack hooks in case nftables NAT chain is added.

36) Merge assignments with return in a couple of spots in the
    Netfilter codebase, also from Arushi.

37) Document that xtables percpu counters are stored in the same
    memory area, from Ben Hutchings.

38) Revert mark_source_chains() sanity checks that break existing
    rulesets, from Florian Westphal.

39) Use is_zero_ether_addr() in the ipset codebase, from Joe Perches.

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.
