Jozsef Kadlecsik says: ==================== - Introduction of new commands and thus protocol version 7. The new commands makes possible to eliminate the getsockopt interface of ipset and use solely netlink to communicate with the kernel. Due to the strict attribute checking both in user/kernel space, a new protocol number was introduced. Both the kernel/userspace is fully backward compatible. - Make invalid MAC address checks consisten, from Stefano Brivio. The patch depends on the next one. - Allow matching on destination MAC address for mac and ipmac sets, also from Stefano Brivio. ==================== Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.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.
