Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next
Pull networking updates from David Miller:
"Another merge window, another set of networking changes. I've heard
rumblings that the lightweight tunnels infrastructure has been voted
networking change of the year. But what do I know?
1) Add conntrack support to openvswitch, from Joe Stringer.
2) Initial support for VRF (Virtual Routing and Forwarding), which
allows the segmentation of routing paths without using multiple
devices. There are some semantic kinks to work out still, but
this is a reasonably strong foundation. From David Ahern.
3) Remove spinlock fro act_bpf fast path, from Alexei Starovoitov.
4) Ignore route nexthops with a link down state in ipv6, just like
ipv4. From Andy Gospodarek.
5) Remove spinlock from fast path of act_gact and act_mirred, from
Eric Dumazet.
6) Document the DSA layer, from Florian Fainelli.
7) Add netconsole support to bcmgenet, systemport, and DSA. Also
from Florian Fainelli.
8) Add Mellanox Switch Driver and core infrastructure, from Jiri
Pirko.
9) Add support for "light weight tunnels", which allow for
encapsulation and decapsulation without bearing the overhead of a
full blown netdevice. From Thomas Graf, Jiri Benc, and a cast of
others.
10) Add Identifier Locator Addressing support for ipv6, from Tom
Herbert.
11) Support fragmented SKBs in iwlwifi, from Johannes Berg.
12) Allow perf PMUs to be accessed from eBPF programs, from Kaixu Xia.
13) Add BQL support to 3c59x driver, from Loganaden Velvindron.
14) Stop using a zero TX queue length to mean that a device shouldn't
have a qdisc attached, use an explicit flag instead. From Phil
Sutter.
15) Use generic geneve netdevice infrastructure in openvswitch, from
Pravin B Shelar.
16) Add infrastructure to avoid re-forwarding a packet in software
that was already forwarded by a hardware switch. From Scott
Feldman.
17) Allow AF_PACKET fanout function to be implemented in a bpf
program, from Willem de Bruijn"
