Petar Penkov 90e33d4594 tun: enable napi_gro_frags() for TUN/TAP driver
Add a TUN/TAP receive mode that exercises the napi_gro_frags()
interface. This mode is available only in TAP mode, as the interface
expects packets with Ethernet headers.

Furthermore, packets follow the layout of the iovec_iter that was
received. The first iovec is the linear data, and every one after the
first is a fragment. If there are more fragments than the max number,
drop the packet. Additionally, invoke eth_get_headlen() to exercise flow
dissector code and to verify that the header resides in the linear data.

The napi_gro_frags() mode requires setting the IFF_NAPI_FRAGS option.
This is imposed because this mode is intended for testing via tools like
syzkaller and packetdrill, and the increased flexibility it provides can
introduce security vulnerabilities. This flag is accepted only if the
device is in TAP mode and has the IFF_NAPI flag set as well. This is
done because both of these are explicit requirements for correct
operation in this mode.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

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.
