Stefano Garzarella says: ==================== vsock/virtio: make the credit mechanism more robust This series makes the credit mechanism implemented in the virtio-vsock devices more robust. Patch 1 sends an update to the remote peer when the buf_alloc change. Patch 2 prevents a malicious peer (especially the guest) can consume all the memory of the other peer, discarding packets when the credit available is not respected. ==================== 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.
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.
