    Linus Torvalds authored
    Pull networking updates from David Miller:
    
     1) BPF debugger and asm tool by Daniel Borkmann.
    
     2) Speed up create/bind in AF_PACKET, also from Daniel Borkmann.
    
     3) Correct reciprocal_divide and update users, from Hannes Frederic
        Sowa and Daniel Borkmann.
    
     4) Currently we only have a "set" operation for the hw timestamp socket
        ioctl, add a "get" operation to match.  From Ben Hutchings.
    
     5) Add better trace events for debugging driver datapath problems, also
        from Ben Hutchings.
    
     6) Implement auto corking in TCP, from Eric Dumazet.  Basically, if we
        have a small send and a previous packet is already in the qdisc or
        device queue, defer until TX completion or we get more data.
    
     7) Allow userspace to manage ipv6 temporary addresses, from Jiri Pirko.
    
     8) Add a qdisc bypass option for AF_PACKET sockets, from Daniel
        Borkmann.
    
     9) Share IP header compression code between Bluetooth and IEEE802154
        layers, from Jukka Rissanen.
    
    10) Fix ipv6 router reachability probing, from Jiri Benc.
    
    11) Allow packets to be captured on macvtap devices, from Vlad Yasevich.
    
    12) Support tunneling in GRO layer, from Jerry Chu.
    
    13) Allow bonding to be configured fully using netlink, from Scott
        Feldman.
    
    14) Allow AF_PACKET users to obtain the VLAN TPID, just like they can
        already get the TCI.  From Atzm Watanabe.
    
    15) New "Heavy Hitter" qdisc, from Terry Lam.
    
    16) Significantly improve the IPSEC support in pktgen, from Fan Du.
    
    17) Allow ipv4 tunnels to cache routes, just like sockets.  From Tom
        Herbert.
    
    18) Add Proportional Integral Enhanced packet scheduler, from Vijay
        Subramanian.
    
    19) Allow openvswitch to mmap'd netlink, from Thomas Graf.
    
    20) Key TCP metrics blobs also by source address, not just destination
        address.  From Christoph Paasch.
    
    21) Support 10G in generic phylib.  From Andy Fleming.
    
    22) Try to short-circuit GRO flow compares using device provided RX
        hash, if provided.  From Tom Herbert.
    
    The wireless and netfilter folks have been busy little bees too.
