Mat Martineau says: ==================== mptcp: Path manager mode selection MPTCP already has an in-kernel path manager (PM) to add and remove TCP subflows associated with a given MPTCP connection. This in-kernel PM has been designed to handle typical server-side use cases, but is not very flexible or configurable for client devices that may have more complicated policies to implement. This patch series from the MPTCP tree is the first step toward adding a generic-netlink-based API for MPTCP path management, which a privileged userspace daemon will be able to use to control subflow establishment. These patches add a per-namespace sysctl to select the default PM type (in-kernel or userspace) for new MPTCP sockets. New self-tests confirm expected behavior when userspace PM is selected but there is no daemon available to handle existing MPTCP PM events. Subsequent patch series (already staged in the MPTCP tree) will add the generic netlink path management API. ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220427225002.231996-1-mathew.j.martineau@linux.intel.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.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.
