Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== Netfilter updates for net-next The following batch contains netfilter updates for your net-next tree: 1) Expose NFT_OSF_MAXGENRELEN maximum OS name length from the new OS passive fingerprint matching extension, from Fernando Fernandez. 2) Add extension to support for fine grain conntrack timeout policies from nf_tables. As preparation works, this patchset moves nf_ct_untimeout() to nf_conntrack_timeout and it also decouples the timeout policy from the ctnl_timeout object, most work done by Harsha Sharma. 3) Enable connection tracking when conntrack helper is in place. 4) Missing enumeration in uapi header when splitting original xt_osf to nfnetlink_osf, also from Fernando. 5) Fix a sparse warning due to incorrect typing in the nf_osf_find(), from Wei Yongjun. ==================== 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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
