Merge tag 'net-5.16-rc5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net
Pull networking fixes from Jakub Kicinski:
"Including fixes from bpf, can and netfilter.
Current release - regressions:
- bpf, sockmap: re-evaluate proto ops when psock is removed from
sockmap
Current release - new code bugs:
- bpf: fix bpf_check_mod_kfunc_call for built-in modules
- ice: fixes for TC classifier offloads
- vrf: don't run conntrack on vrf with !dflt qdisc
Previous releases - regressions:
- bpf: fix the off-by-two error in range markings
- seg6: fix the iif in the IPv6 socket control block
- devlink: fix netns refcount leak in devlink_nl_cmd_reload()
- dsa: mv88e6xxx: fix "don't use PHY_DETECT on internal PHY's"
- dsa: mv88e6xxx: allow use of PHYs on CPU and DSA ports
Previous releases - always broken:
- ethtool: do not perform operations on net devices being
unregistered
- udp: use datalen to cap max gso segments
- ice: fix races in stats collection
- fec: only clear interrupt of handling queue in fec_enet_rx_queue()
- m_can: pci: fix incorrect reference clock rate
- m_can: disable and ignore ELO interrupt
- mvpp2: fix XDP rx queues registering
Misc:
- treewide: add missing includes masked by cgroup -> bpf.h
dependency"
