Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== Netfilter fixes for net The following patchset contains Netfilter fixes for net: 1) Restrict range element expansion in ipset to avoid soft lockup, from Jozsef Kadlecsik. 2) Memleak in error path for nf_conntrack_bridge for IPv4 packets, from Yajun Deng. 3) Simplify conntrack garbage collection strategy to avoid frequent wake-ups, from Florian Westphal. 4) Fix NFNLA_HOOK_FUNCTION_NAME string, do not include module name. 5) Missing chain family netlink attribute in chain description in nfnetlink_hook. 6) Incorrect sequence number on nfnetlink_hook dumps. 7) Use netlink request family in reply message for consistency. 8) Remove offload_pickup sysctl, use conntrack for established state instead, from Florian Westphal. 9) Translate NFPROTO_INET/ingress to NFPROTO_NETDEV/ingress, since NFPROTO_INET is not exposed through nfnetlink_hook. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pablo/nf: netfilter: nfnetlink_hook: translate inet ingress to netdev netfilter: conntrack: remove offload_pickup sysctl again netfilter: nfnetlink_hook: Use same family as request message netfilter: nfnetlink_hook: use the sequence number of the request message netfilter: nfnetlink_hook: missing chain family netfilter: nfnetlink_hook: strip off module name from hookfn netfilter: conntrack: collect all entries in one cycle netfilter: nf_conntrack_bridge: Fix memory leak when error netfilter: ipset: Limit the maximal range of consecutive elements to add/delete ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210806151149.6356-1-pablo@netfilter.org Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
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.
