Pull networking updates from David Millar: "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) 13) Netlink extended ACK support (Johannes Berg, Pablo Neira Ayuso, and several others) 14) IPSEC hw offload infrastructure (Steffen Klassert)" * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next: (2065 commits) tipc: refactor function tipc_sk_recv_stream() tipc: refactor function tipc_sk_recvmsg() net: thunderx: Optimize page recycling for XDP net: thunderx: Support for XDP header adjustment net: thunderx: Add support for XDP_TX net: thunderx: Add support for XDP_DROP net: thunderx: Add basic XDP support net: thunderx: Cleanup receive buffer allocation net: thunderx: Optimize CQE_TX handling net: thunderx: Optimize RBDR descriptor handling net: thunderx: Support for page recycling ipx: call ipxitf_put() in ioctl error path net: sched: add helpers to handle extended actions qed*: Fix issues in the ptp filter config implementation. qede: Fix concurrency issue in PTP Tx path processing. stmmac: Add support for SIMATIC IOT2000 platform net: hns: fix ethtool_get_strings overflow in hns driver tcp: fix wraparound issue in tcp_lp bpf, arm64: fix jit branch offset related to ldimm64 bpf, arm64: implement jiting of BPF_XADD ...
