Matthieu Baerts says: ==================== mptcp: annotate lockless access This is a series of 5 patches from Paolo to annotate lockless access. The MPTCP locking schema is already quite complex. We need to clarify it and make the lockless access already there consistent, or later changes will be even harder to follow and understand. This series goes through all the msk fields accessed in the RX and TX path and makes the lockless annotation consistent with the in-use locking schema. As a bonus, this should fix data races eventually found by fuzzers -- even if we haven't seen many such reports so far. Patch 1/5 hints we could remove "local_key" and "remote_key" from the subflow context, and always use the ones from the msk socket, possibly reducing the context memory usage. That change is left over as a possible follow-up. ==================== Signed-off-by: Matthieu Baerts (NGI0) <matttbe@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
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.
