The snmp_counter.rst explains the meanings of snmp counters. It also
provides a set of experiments (only 1 for this initial patch),
combines the experiments' resutls and the snmp counters'
meanings. This is an initial path, only explains a part of IP/ICMP
counters and provide a simple ping test.

Jakob Unterwurzacher 9f2d3eae88 can: ucan: add driver for Theobroma Systems UCAN devices
The UCAN driver supports the microcontroller-based USB/CAN
adapters from Theobroma Systems. There are two form-factors
that run essentially the same firmware:

* Seal: standalone USB stick ( https://www.theobroma-systems.com/seal )

* Mule: integrated on the PCB of various System-on-Modules from
  Theobroma Systems like the A31-µQ7 and the RK3399-Q7
  ( https://www.theobroma-systems.com/rk3399-q7 )

The USB wire protocol has been designed to be as generic and
hardware-indendent as possible in the hope of being useful for
implementation on other microcontrollers.

Magnus Karlsson b4b8faa1de samples/bpf: sample application and documentation for AF_XDP sockets
This is a sample application for AF_XDP sockets. The application
supports three different modes of operation: rxdrop, txonly and l2fwd.

To show-case a simple round-robin load-balancing between a set of
sockets in an xskmap, set the RR_LB compile time define option to 1 in
"xdpsock.h".

v2: The entries variable was calculated twice in {umem,xq}_nb_avail.
