Pull networking updates from David Miller: "Highlights: - Gustavo A. R. Silva keeps working on the implicit switch fallthru changes. - Support 802.11ax High-Efficiency wireless in cfg80211 et al, From Luca Coelho. - Re-enable ASPM in r8169, from Kai-Heng Feng. - Add virtual XFRM interfaces, which avoids all of the limitations of existing IPSEC tunnels. From Steffen Klassert. - Convert GRO over to use a hash table, so that when we have many flows active we don't traverse a long list during accumluation. - Many new self tests for routing, TC, tunnels, etc. Too many contributors to mention them all, but I'm really happy to keep seeing this stuff. - Hardware timestamping support for dpaa_eth/fsl-fman from Yangbo Lu. - Lots of cleanups and fixes in L2TP code from Guillaume Nault. - Add IPSEC offload support to netdevsim, from Shannon Nelson. - Add support for slotting with non-uniform distribution to netem packet scheduler, from Yousuk Seung. - Add UDP GSO support to mlx5e, from Boris Pismenny. - Support offloading of Team LAG in NFP, from John Hurley. - Allow to configure TX queue selection based upon RX queue, from Amritha Nambiar. - Support ethtool ring size configuration in aquantia, from Anton Mikaev. - Support DSCP and flowlabel per-transport in SCTP, from Xin Long. - Support list based batching and stack traversal of SKBs, this is very exciting work. From Edward Cree. - Busyloop optimizations in vhost_net, from Toshiaki Makita. - Introduce the ETF qdisc, which allows time based transmissions. IGB can offload this in hardware. From Vinicius Costa Gomes. - Add parameter support to devlink, from Moshe Shemesh. - Several multiplication and division optimizations for BPF JIT in nfp driver, from Jiong Wang. - Lots of prepatory work to make more of the packet scheduler layer lockless, when possible, from Vlad Buslov. - Add ACK filter and NAT awareness to sch_cake packet scheduler, from Toke Høiland-Jørgensen. - Support regions and region snapshots in devlink, from Alex Vesker. - Allow to attach XDP programs to both HW and SW at the same time on a given device, with initial support in nfp. From Jakub Kicinski. - Add TLS RX offload and support in mlx5, from Ilya Lesokhin. - Use PHYLIB in r8169 driver, from Heiner Kallweit. - All sorts of changes to support Spectrum 2 in mlxsw driver, from Ido Schimmel. - PTP support in mv88e6xxx DSA driver, from Andrew Lunn. - Make TCP_USER_TIMEOUT socket option more accurate, from Jon Maxwell. - Support for templates in packet scheduler classifier, from Jiri Pirko. - IPV6 support in RDS, from Ka-Cheong Poon. - Native tproxy support in nf_tables, from Máté Eckl. - Maintain IP fragment queue in an rbtree, but optimize properly for in-order frags. From Peter Oskolkov. - Improvde handling of ACKs on hole repairs, from Yuchung Cheng" * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next: (1996 commits) bpf: test: fix spelling mistake "REUSEEPORT" -> "REUSEPORT" hv/netvsc: Fix NULL dereference at single queue mode fallback net: filter: mark expected switch fall-through xen-netfront: fix warn message as irq device name has '/' cxgb4: Add new T5 PCI device ids 0x50af and 0x50b0 net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: missing unlock on error path rds: fix building with IPV6=m inet/connection_sock: prefer _THIS_IP_ to current_text_addr net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: bitwise vs logical bug net: sock_diag: Fix spectre v1 gadget in __sock_diag_cmd() ieee802154: hwsim: using right kind of iteration net: hns3: Add vlan filter setting by ethtool command -K net: hns3: Set tx ring' tc info when netdev is up net: hns3: Remove tx ring BD len register in hns3_enet net: hns3: Fix desc num set to default when setting channel net: hns3: Fix for phy link issue when using marvell phy driver net: hns3: Fix for information of phydev lost problem when down/up net: hns3: Fix for command format parsing error in hclge_is_all_function_id_zero net: hns3: Add support for serdes loopback selftest bnxt_en: take coredump_record structure off stack ...

+ * exception case could be easily handled before calling "reciprocal_value_adv".

+ *
+ * It makes no sense to use this advanced version for host divide emulation,
+ * those extra complexities for calculating multiplier etc could completely

+ *
+ * However, it makes sense to use it for JIT divide code generation for which
+ * we are willing to trade performance of JITed code with that of host. As shown
+ * by the following pseudo code, the required emulation operations could go down
+ * from 6 (the basic version) to 3 or 4.
+ *
+ * To use the result of "reciprocal_value_adv", suppose we want to calculate
+ * n/d, the pseudo C code will be:
+ *
+ * struct reciprocal_value_adv rvalue;
+ * u8 pre_shift, exp;
+ *
+ * // handle exception case.

+ * // floor(log2(d & (2^32 -d)))
+ * pre_shift = fls(d & -d) - 1;
+ * rvalue = reciprocal_value_adv(d >> pre_shift, 32 - pre_shift);
