Core: - support "prefer busy polling" NAPI operation mode, where we defer softirq for some time expecting applications to periodically busy poll - AF_XDP: improve efficiency by more batching and hindering the adjacency cache prefetcher - af_packet: make packet_fanout.arr size configurable up to 64K - tcp: optimize TCP zero copy receive in presence of partial or unaligned reads making zero copy a performance win for much smaller messages - XDP: add bulk APIs for returning / freeing frames - sched: support fragmenting IP packets as they come out of conntrack - net: allow virtual netdevs to forward UDP L4 and fraglist GSO skbs BPF: - BPF switch from crude rlimit-based to memcg-based memory accounting - BPF type format information for kernel modules and related tracing enhancements - BPF implement task local storage for BPF LSM - allow the FENTRY/FEXIT/RAW_TP tracing programs to use bpf_sk_storage Protocols: - mptcp: improve multiple xmit streams support, memory accounting and many smaller improvements - TLS: support CHACHA20-POLY1305 cipher - seg6: add support for SRv6 End.DT4/DT6 behavior - sctp: Implement RFC 6951: UDP Encapsulation of SCTP - ppp_generic: add ability to bridge channels directly - bridge: Connectivity Fault Management (CFM) support as is defined in IEEE 802.1Q section 12.14.
