Matthieu Baerts says: ==================== mptcp: add CurrEstab MIB counter This MIB counter is similar to the one of TCP -- CurrEstab -- available in /proc/net/snmp. This is useful to quickly list the number of MPTCP connections without having to iterate over all of them. Patch 1 prepares its support by adding new helper functions: - MPTCP_DEC_STATS(): similar to MPTCP_INC_STATS(), but this time to decrement a counter. - mptcp_set_state(): similar to tcp_set_state(), to change the state of an MPTCP socket, and to inc/decrement the new counter when needed. Patch 2 uses mptcp_set_state() instead of directly calling inet_sk_state_store() to change the state of MPTCP sockets. Patch 3 and 4 validate the new feature in MPTCP "join" and "diag" selftests. ==================== Signed-off-by: Matthieu Baerts <matttbe@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

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.
