 2) Add netdevsim driver for testing various offloads, from Jakub
    Kicinski.

 3) Support cross-chip FDB operations in DSA, from Vivien Didelot.

 4) Add a 2nd listener hash table for TCP, similar to what was done for
    UDP. From Martin KaFai Lau.

 5) Add eBPF based queue selection to tun, from Jason Wang.

 6) Lockless qdisc support, from John Fastabend.

 7) SCTP stream interleave support, from Xin Long.

 8) Smoother TCP receive autotuning, from Eric Dumazet.

 9) Lots of erspan tunneling enhancements, from William Tu.

10) Add true function call support to BPF, from Alexei Starovoitov.

11) Add explicit support for GRO HW offloading, from Michael Chan.

12) Support extack generation in more netlink subsystems. From Alexander
    Aring, Quentin Monnet, and Jakub Kicinski.

13) Add 1000BaseX, flow control, and EEE support to mvneta driver. From
    Russell King.

14) Add flow table abstraction to netfilter, from Pablo Neira Ayuso.

15) Many improvements and simplifications to the NFP driver bpf JIT,
    from Jakub Kicinski.

16) Support for ipv6 non-equal cost multipath routing, from Ido
    Schimmel.

17) Add resource abstration to devlink, from Arkadi Sharshevsky.

18) Packet scheduler classifier shared filter block support, from Jiri
    Pirko.

19) Avoid locking in act_csum, from Davide Caratti.

20) devinet_ioctl() simplifications from Al viro.

21) More TCP bpf improvements from Lawrence Brakmo.

22) Add support for onlink ipv6 route flag, similar to ipv4, from David
    Ahern.

+Description:	The main database in the Spectrum device is a centralized
+		KVD database used for many of the tables used to configure
+		the chip including L2 FDB, L3 LPM, ECMP and more. The KVD
+		is divided into two sections, the first is hash-based table
+		and the second is a linear access table. The division
+		between the linear and hash-based sections is static and
+		require reload before the changes take effect.
