Merge tag 'net-next-6.13' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next
Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni: "The most significant set of changes is the per netns RTNL. The new behavior is disabled by default, regression risk should be contained.
Notably the new config knob PTP_1588_CLOCK_VMCLOCK will inherit its default value from PTP_1588_CLOCK_KVM, as the first is intended to be a more reliable replacement for the latter.
Core:
- Started a very large, in-progress, effort to make the RTNL lock scope per network-namespace, thus reducing the lock contention significantly in the containerized use-case, comprising: - RCU-ified some relevant slices of the FIB control path - introduce basic per netns locking helpers - namespacified the IPv4 address hash table - remove rtnl_register{,_module}() in favour of rtnl_register_many() - refactor rtnl_{new,del,set}link() moving as much validation as possible out of RTNL lock - convert all phonet doit() and dumpit() handlers to RCU - convert IPv4 addresses manipulation to per-netns RTNL - convert virtual interface creation to per-netns RTNL the per-netns lock infrastructure is guarded by the CONFIG_DEBUG_NET_SMALL_RTNL knob, disabled by default ad interim.
- Introduce NAPI suspension, to efficiently switching between busy polling (NAPI processing suspended) and normal processing.
- Migrate the IPv4 routing input, output and control path from direct ToS usage to DSCP macros. This is a work in progress to make ECN handling consistent and reliable.
- Add drop reasons support to the IPv4 rotue input path, allowing better introspection in case of packets drop.
- Make FIB seqnum lockless, dropping RTNL protection for read access.
- Make inet{,v6} addresses hashing less predicable.
- Allow providing timestamp OPT_ID via cmsg, to correlate TX packets and timestamps
Things we sprinkled into general kernel code:
- Add small file operations for debugfs, to reduce the struct ops size.
- Refactoring and optimization for the implementation of page_frag API, This is a preparatory work to consolidate the page_frag implementation.
Netfilter:
- Optimize set element transactions to reduce memory consumption
- Extended netlink error reporting for attribute parser failure.
- Make legacy xtables configs user selectable, giving users the option to configure iptables without enabling any other config.
- Address a lot of false-positive RCU issues, pointed by recent CI improvements.
BPF:
- Put xsk sockets on a struct diet and add various cleanups. Overall, this helps to bump performance by 12% for some workloads.
- Extend BPF selftests to increase coverage of XDP features in combination with BPF cpumap.
- Optimize and homogenize bpf_csum_diff helper for all archs and also add a batch of new BPF selftests for it.
- Extend netkit with an option to delegate skb->{mark,priority} scrubbing to its BPF program.
- Make the bpf_get_netns_cookie() helper available also to tc(x) BPF programs.
Protocols:
- Introduces 4-tuple hash for connected udp sockets, speeding-up significantly connected sockets lookup.
- Add a fastpath for some TCP timers that usually expires after close, the socket lock contention.
- Add inbound and outbound xfrm state caches to speed up state lookups.
- Avoid sending MPTCP advertisements on stale subflows, reducing risks on loosing them.
- Make neighbours table flushing more scalable, maintaining per device neigh lists.
Driver API:
- Introduce a unified interface to configure transmission H/W shaping, and expose it to user-space via generic-netlink.
- Add support for per-NAPI config via netlink. This makes napi configuration persistent across queues removal and re-creation. Requires driver updates, currently supported drivers are: nVidia/Mellanox mlx4 and mlx5, Broadcom brcm and Intel ice.
- Add ethtool support for writing SFP / PHY firmware blocks.
- Track RSS context allocation from ethtool core.
- Implement support for mirroring to DSA CPU port, via TC mirror offload.
- Consolidate FDB updates notification, to avoid duplicates on device-specific entries.
- Expose DPLL clock quality level to the user-space.
- Support master-slave PHY config via device tree.
Tests and tooling:
- forwarding: introduce deferred commands, to simplify the cleanup phase
Drivers:
- Updated several drivers - Amazon vNic, Google vNic, Microsoft vNic, Intel e1000e and Broadcom Tigon3 - to use netdev-genl to link the IRQs and queues to NAPI IDs, allowing busy polling and better introspection.
- Ethernet high-speed NICs: - nVidia/Mellanox: - mlx5: - a large refactor to implement support for cross E-Switch scheduling - refactor H/W conter management to let it scale better - H/W GRO cleanups - Intel (100G, ice):: - add support for ethtool reset - implement support for per TX queue H/W shaping - AMD/Solarflare: - implement per device queue stats support - Broadcom (bnxt): - improve wildcard l4proto on IPv4/IPv6 ntuple rules - Marvell Octeon: - Add representor support for each Resource Virtualization Unit (RVU) device. - Hisilicon: - add support for the BMC Gigabit Ethernet - IBM (EMAC): - driver cleanup and modernization - Cisco (VIC): - raise the queues number limit to 256
- Ethernet virtual: - Google vNIC: - implement page pool support - macsec: - inherit lower device's features and TSO limits when offloading - virtio_net: - enable premapped mode by default - support for XDP socket(AF_XDP) zerocopy TX - wireguard: - set the TSO max size to be GSO_MAX_SIZE, to aggregate larger packets.
- Ethernet NICs embedded and virtual: - Broadcom ASP: - enable software timestamping - Freescale: - add enetc4 PF driver - MediaTek: Airoha SoC: - implement BQL support - RealTek r8169: - enable TSO by default on r8168/r8125 - implement extended ethtool stats - Renesas AVB: - enable TX checksum offload - Synopsys (stmmac): - support header splitting for vlan tagged packets - move common code for DWMAC4 and DWXGMAC into a separate FPE module. - add dwmac driver support for T-HEAD TH1520 SoC - Synopsys (xpcs): - driver refactor and cleanup - TI: - icssg_prueth: add VLAN offload support - Xilinx emaclite: - add clock support
- Ethernet switches: - Microchip: - implement support for the lan969x Ethernet switch family - add LAN9646 switch support to KSZ DSA driver

Merge branch 'add-the-dwmac-driver-support-for-t-head-th1520-soc'
Drew Fustini says:
==================== Add the dwmac driver support for T-HEAD TH1520 SoC
This series adds support for dwmac gigabit ethernet in the T-Head TH1520 RISC-V SoC used on boards like BeagleV Ahead and the LicheePi 4A.
The gigabit ethernet on these boards does need pinctrl support to mux the necessary pads. The pinctrl-th1520 driver, pinctrl binding, and related dts patches are in linux-next. However, they are not yet in net-next/main.
Therefore, I am dropping the dts patch for v5 as it will not build on net-next/main due to the lack of the padctrl0_apsys pin controller node in next-next/main version th1520.dtsi. It does exist in linux-next [1] and the two patches in this series allow the ethernet ports to work correctly on the LPi4A and Ahead when applied to linux-next.
The dwmac-thead driver in this series does not need the pinctrl-th1520 driver to build. Nor does the thead,th1520-gmac.yaml binding need the pinctrl binding to pass the schema check.
