Pull networking updates from David Miller: 1) Allow setting bluetooth L2CAP modes via socket option, from Luiz Augusto von Dentz. 2) Add GSO partial support to igc, from Sasha Neftin. 3) Several cleanups and improvements to r8169 from Heiner Kallweit. 4) Add IF_OPER_TESTING link state and use it when ethtool triggers a device self-test. From Andrew Lunn. 5) Start moving away from custom driver versions, use the globally defined kernel version instead, from Leon Romanovsky. 6) Support GRO vis gro_cells in DSA layer, from Alexander Lobakin. 7) Allow hard IRQ deferral during NAPI, from Eric Dumazet. 8) Add sriov and vf support to hinic, from Luo bin. 9) Support Media Redundancy Protocol (MRP) in the bridging code, from Horatiu Vultur. 10) Support netmap in the nft_nat code, from Pablo Neira Ayuso. 11) Allow UDPv6 encapsulation of ESP in the ipsec code, from Sabrina Dubroca. Also add ipv6 support for espintcp. 12) Lots of ReST conversions of the networking documentation, from Mauro Carvalho Chehab. 13) Support configuration of ethtool rxnfc flows in bcmgenet driver, from Doug Berger. 14) Allow to dump cgroup id and filter by it in inet_diag code, from Dmitry Yakunin. 15) Add infrastructure to export netlink attribute policies to userspace, from Johannes Berg. 16) Several optimizations to sch_fq scheduler, from Eric Dumazet. 17) Fallback to the default qdisc if qdisc init fails because otherwise a packet scheduler init failure will make a device inoperative. From Jesper Dangaard Brouer. 18) Several RISCV bpf jit optimizations, from Luke Nelson. 19) Correct the return type of the ->ndo_start_xmit() method in several drivers, it's netdev_tx_t but many drivers were using 'int'. From Yunjian Wang. 20) Add an ethtool interface for PHY master/slave config, from Oleksij Rempel. 21) Add BPF iterators, from Yonghang Song. 22) Add cable test infrastructure, including ethool interfaces, from Andrew Lunn. Marvell PHY driver is the first to support this facility. 23) Remove zero-length arrays all over, from Gustavo A. R. Silva. 24) Calculate and maintain an explicit frame size in XDP, from Jesper Dangaard Brouer. 25) Add CAP_BPF, from Alexei Starovoitov. 26) Support terse dumps in the packet scheduler, from Vlad Buslov. 27) Support XDP_TX bulking in dpaa2 driver, from Ioana Ciornei. 28) Add devm_register_netdev(), from Bartosz Golaszewski. 29) Minimize qdisc resets, from Cong Wang. 30) Get rid of kernel_getsockopt and kernel_setsockopt in order to eliminate set_fs/get_fs calls.

+bpftool-link
+================
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+tool for inspection and simple manipulation of eBPF links
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+:Manual section: 8
+
+SYNOPSIS
+========
+
+ **bpftool** [*OPTIONS*] **link** *COMMAND*
+
+ *OPTIONS* := { { **-j** | **--json** } [{ **-p** | **--pretty** }] | { **-f** | **--bpffs** } }
+
+ *COMMANDS* := { **show** | **list** | **pin** | **help** }
+
+LINK COMMANDS
+=============
+
+| **bpftool** **link { show | list }** [*LINK*]
+| **bpftool** **link pin** *LINK* *FILE*
+| **bpftool** **link help**
+|
+| *LINK* := { **id** *LINK_ID* | **pinned** *FILE* }
+
+
+DESCRIPTION
+===========
+ **bpftool link { show | list }** [*LINK*]
+ Show information about active links. If *LINK* is
+ specified show information only about given link,
+ otherwise list all links currently active on the system.
+
+ Output will start with link ID followed by link type and
+ zero or more named attributes, some of which depend on type
+ of link.
+
+ **bpftool link pin** *LINK* *FILE*
+ Pin link *LINK* as *FILE*.
+
+ Note: *FILE* must be located in *bpffs* mount. It must not
+ contain a dot character ('.'), which is reserved for future
+ extensions of *bpffs*.
+
+ **bpftool link help**
+ Print short help message.
+
+OPTIONS
+=======
+ -h, --help
+ Print short generic help message (similar to **bpftool help**).
+
+ -V, --version
+ Print version number (similar to **bpftool version**).
+
+ -j, --json
+ Generate JSON output. For commands that cannot produce JSON, this
+ option has no effect.
+
+ -p, --pretty
+ Generate human-readable JSON output. Implies **-j**.
+
+ -f, --bpffs
+ When showing BPF links, show file names of pinned
+ links.
+
+ -n, --nomount
+ Do not automatically attempt to mount any virtual file system
+ (such as tracefs or BPF virtual file system) when necessary.
+
+ -d, --debug
+ Print all logs available, even debug-level information. This
+ includes logs from libbpf.
+
+EXAMPLES
