  - fanotify10: increase test coverage to support FAN_OPEN_EXEC mask
  - fanotify03: add FAN_OPEN_EXEC_PERM

* New test variants API
  - The LTP test library gained support for test variants, with that we can
    test family of similar syscalls (i.e. different select syscalls) in a
    single test.

  - stime: Test 3 variants
  - sigpending: Test 3 variants
  - select04: Test 4 variants

* Various fixes for Android Bionic libc (both build and runtime) and musl libc
  are included in this release

* Additional 22 tests were converted to the new test library


NOTABLE CHANGES IN NETWORK TESTS
================================
brought to you by Peter Vorel

* New testcases
  - ipsec: test also randomized message length
  - features: new checksum testcases
  - virt: add mode l3s in ipvlan test
  - netstress: support SO_REUSEPORT, MSG_ZEROCOPY

* Various tests converted into new API
  - (arping01, broken_ip, clockdiff01, ip_tests.sh, ping0{1|0}, tracepath, traceroute)

* Various small fixes and enhancements, most notable ones:
  - dhcp: correct prefix for expected IPv6 address)
  - lower down packet size to minimum, which still be high enough to require
    fragmentation. This is critical for performance tests, which compare
    virtual devices with the real ones.
  - netstress: various fixes to avoid false-positives
  - dhcp: AppArmor and SELinux fixes, fix paths for non-RHEL distros
