Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== flow_offload fixes The following patchset contains fixes for the flow_offload infrastructure: 1) Fix possible build breakage before patch 3/4. Both the flow_offload infrastructure and OVS define the flow_stats structure. Patch 3/4 in this batch indirectly pulls in the flow_stats definition from include/net/flow_offload.h into OVS, leading to structure redefinition compile-time errors. 2) Remove netns parameter from flow_block_cb_alloc(), this is not required as Jiri suggests. The flow_block_cb_is_busy() function uses the per-driver block list to check for used blocks which was the original intention for this parameter. 3) Rename tc_setup_cb_t to flow_setup_cb_t. This callback is not exclusive of tc anymore, this might confuse the reader as Jiri suggests, fix this semantic inconsistency. Add #include <linux/list.h> to include/net/netfilter/nf_tables_offload.h to avoid a compile break with CONFIG_HEADER_TEST=y. 4) Fix block sharing feature: Add flow_block structure and use it, update flow_block_cb_lookup() to use this flow_block object. ==================== 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.
