Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== Netfilter fixes for net The following patchset contains Netfilter fixes for net: 1) Use signed integer in ipv6_skip_exthdr() called from nf_confirm(). Reported by static analysis tooling, patch from Florian Westphal. 2) Missing set type checks in nf_tables: Validate that set declaration matches the an existing set type, otherwise bail out with EEXIST. Currently, nf_tables silently accepts the re-declaration with a different type but it bails out later with EINVAL when the user adds entries to the set. This fix is relatively large because it requires two preparation patches that are included in this batch. 3) Do not ignore updates of timeout and gc_interval parameters in existing sets. 4) Fix a hang when 0/0 subnets is added to a hash:net,port,net type of ipset. Except hash:net,port,net and hash:net,iface, the set types don't support 0/0 and the auxiliary functions rely on this fact. So 0/0 needs a special handling in hash:net,port,net which was missing (hash:net,iface was not affected by this bug), from Jozsef Kadlecsik. 5) When adding/deleting large number of elements in one step in ipset, it can take a reasonable amount of time and can result in soft lockup errors. This patch is a complete rework of the previous version in order to use a smaller internal batch limit and at the same time removing the external hard limit to add arbitrary number of elements in one step. Also from Jozsef Kadlecsik. Except for patch #1, which fixes a bug introduced in the previous net-next development cycle, anything else has been broken for several releases. ==================== 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.
