Eric Dumazet says: ==================== inet: socket lock and data-races avoidance In this series, I converted 20 bits in "struct inet_sock" and made them truly atomic. This allows to implement many IP_ socket options in a lockless fashion (no need to acquire socket lock), and fixes data-races that were showing up in various KCSAN reports. I also took care of IP_TTL/IP_MINTTL, but left few other options for another series. v4: Rebased after recent mptcp changes. Added Reviewed-by: tags from Simon (thanks !) v3: fixed patch 7, feedback from build bot about ipvs set_mcast_loop() v2: addressed a feedback from a build bot in patch 9 by removing unused issk variable in mptcp_setsockopt_sol_ip_set_transparent() Added Acked-by: tags from Soheil (thanks !) ==================== 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.
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.
