Merge branch 'net-tcp-make-txhash-use-consistent-for-ipv4'
Antoine Tenart says: ==================== net: tcp: make txhash use consistent for IPv4 Series is divided in two parts. First two commits make the txhash (used for the skb hash in TCP) to be consistent for all IPv4/TCP packets (IPv6 doesn't have the same issue). Last commit improve a hash-related doc. One example is when using OvS with dp_hash, which uses skb->hash, to select a path. We'd like packets from the same flow to be consistent, as well as the hash being stable over time when using net.core.txrehash=0. Same applies for kernel ECMP which also can use skb->hash. ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230523161453.196094-1-atenart@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com>
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.
