David Miller says: ==================== SKB list handling cleanups This is a preparatory patch series which cleans up various forms of sloppy SKB list handling, and makes certain semantics explicit. We are trying to eliminate code that directly accesses the SKB list and SKB queue head next/prev members in any way. It is impossible to convert SKB queue head over the struct list_head while such code exists. This patch series does not eliminate all such code, only the simplest cases. A latter series will tackle the complicated ones. A helper is added to make the "skb->next == NULL means not on a list" rule explicit, and another is added to combine this with list_del(). ==================== 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. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
