Andreas Schultz says: ==================== gtp: misc improvements This is a resent of last series that missed the merge window. There are no changes compared to v4. v4: Compared to v3 it contains mostly smallish naming and spelling fixes. It also drops the documentation patch, Harald did a better job with the documentation and the some things I described do not yet match the implementation. I'll readd the relevant parts with a follow up series. This series lays the groundwork for removing the socket references from the GTP netdevice by removing duplicate code and simplifying the logic on some code paths. It slighly changes the GTP genl API by making the socket parameters optional (though one of them is still required). The removal of the socket references will break the 1:1 releation between GTP netdevice and GTP socket that prevents us to support multiple VRFs with overlapping IP addresse spaces attached to the same GTP-U entity (needed for multi APN support, coming a follow up series). Pablo found a socket hold problem in v2. In order to solve that I had to switch the socket references from the struct socket to the internal struct sock. This should have no functionl impact, but we can now hang on to the reference without blocking user space from closing the GTP socket. v4->v5: * resent for new merge window v3->v4: * drop the documentation patch * spelling fixes * pass nlattr instead of genl_info into gtp_find_dev, makes the code slightly more compact and readable v2->v3: * add documentation to explain the goal of all these changes * incorporate review comments * switch from struct socket to struct sock ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. 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.
