Merge tag 'net-next-7.2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
"Core & protocols:

- Work on removing rtnl_lock protection throughout the stack
continues. In this chapter:
- don't use rtnl_lock for IPv6 multicast routing configuration
- don't take rtnl_lock in ethtool for modern drivers
- prepare Qdisc dump callbacks for rtnl_lock removal

- Support dumping just ifindex + name of all interfaces, under RCU.
It's a common operation for Netlink CLI tools (when translating
names to ifindexes) and previously required full rtnl_lock.

- Support dumping qdiscs and page pools for a specific netdev. Even
tho user space wants a dump of all netdevs, most of the time, the
OOO programming model results in repeating the dump for each
netdev. Which, in absence of a cache, leads to a O(n^2) behavior.

- Flush nexthops once on multi-nexthop removal (e.g. when device goes
down), another O(n^2) -> O(n) improvement.

- Rehash locally generated traffic to a different nexthop on
retransmit timeout.

- Honor oif when choosing nexthop for locally generated IPv6 traffic.

- Convert TCP Auth Option to crypto library, and drop non-RFC algos.

- Increase subflow limits in MPTCP to 64 and endpoint limit to 256.

- Support MPTCP signaling of IPv6 address + port (ADD_ADDR). We need
to selectively skip reporting of the standard TCP Timestamp option,
because they won't fit into the header space together (12 + 30 >
40).

- Support using bridge neighbor suppression, Duplicate Address
Detection, Gratuitous ARP and unsolicited NA forwarding - in EVPN
deployments, e.g. VXLAN fabrics (IPv4 and IPv6).

- Improve link state reporting for upper netdevs (e.g. macvlan) over
tunnel devices (again, mostly for EVPN deployments).

- Support binding GENEVE tunnels to a local address.

- Speed up UDP tunnel destruction (remove one synchronize_rcu()).

- Support exponential field encoding in multicast (IGMPv3 and MLDv2).

- Support attaching PSP crypto offload to containers (veth, netkit).

- Add a new IPSec Netlink message XFRM_MSG_MIGRATE_STATE that allows
migrating individual IPsec SAs independently of their policies.

The existing XFRM_MSG_MIGRATE is tightly coupled to policy+SA
migration, lacks SPI for unique SA identification, and cannot
express reqid changes or migrate Transport mode selectors.

The new interface identifies the SA via SPI and mark, supports
reqid changes, address family changes, encap removal, and uses an
atomic create+install flow under x->lock to prevent SN/IV reuse
during AEAD SA migration.

- Implement GRO/GSO support for PPPoE.

- Convert sockopt callbacks in a number of protocols to iov_iter.

Cross-tree stuff:

- Remove support for Crypto TFM cloning (unblocked after the TCP Auth
Option rework). This feature regressed performance for all crypto
API users, since it changed crypto transformation objects into
reference-counted objects.

- Add FCrypt-PCBC implementation to rxrpc and remove it from the
global crypto API as obsolete and insecure.

Wireless:

- Major rework of station bandwidth handling, fixing issues with
lower capability than AP.

- Cleanups for EMLSR spec issues (drafts differed).

- More Neighbor Awareness Networking (Wi-Fi Aware) work (multicast,
schedule improvements, multi-station etc.)

- Some Ultra High Reliability (UHR) / IEEE 802.11bn (D1.4) work
(e.g. non-primary channel access, UHR DBE support).

- Fine Timing Measurement ranging (i.e. distance measurement) APIs.

Netfilter:

- Use per-rule hash initval in nf_conncount. This avoids unnecessary
lock contention with short keys (e.g. conntrack zones) in different
namespaces.

- Various safety improvements, both in packet parsing and object
lifetimes. Notably add refcounts to conntrack timeout policy.

Deletions:

- Remove TLS + sockmap integration. TLS wants to pin user pages to
avoid a copy, and sockmap wants to write to the input stream. More
work on this integration is clearly needed, and we can't find any
users (original author admitted that they never deployed it).

- Remove support for TLS offload with TCP Offload Engine (the far
more common opportunistic offload is retained). The locking looks
unfixable (driver sleeps under TCP spin locks) and people from the
vendor that added this are AWOL.

- Remove more ATM code, trying to leave behind only what PPPoATM
needs, AAL5 and br2684 with permanent circuits.

- Remove AppleTalk. Let it join hamradio in our out of tree protocol
graveyard, I mean, repository.

- Disable 32-bit x_tables compatibility (32bit binaries on 64bit
kernel) interface in user namespaces. To be deleted completely,
soon.

- Remove 5/10 MHz support from cfg80211/mac80211.

Drivers:

- Software:
- Support DEVMEM/DMABUF Tx over NETMEM_TX_NO_DMA devices (netkit)
- bonding: add knob to strictly follow 802.3ad for link state

- New drivers:
- Alibaba Elastic Ethernet Adaptor (cloud vNIC).
- NXP NETC switch within i.MX94.

- DPLL:
- Add operational state to pins (implement in zl3073x).
- Add generic DPLL type, for daisy-chaining DPLLs (implement in ice).

- Ethernet high-speed NICs:
- Huawei (hinic3):
- enhance tc flow offload support with queue selection,
tunnels
- nVidia/Mellanox:
- avoid over-copying payload to the skb's linear part (up to
60% win for LRO on slow CPUs like ARM64 V2)
- expose more per-queue stats over the standard API
- support additional, unprivileged PFs in the DPU
configuration
- support Socket Direct (multi-PF) with switchdev offloads
- add a pool / frag allocator for DMA mapped buffers for
control objects, save memory on systems with 64kB page size
- take advantage of the ability to dynamically change RSS
table size, even when table is configured by the user
- increase the max RSS table size for even traffic
distribution

Merge branch 'eea-add-basic-driver-framework-for-alibaba-elastic-ethernet-adaptor'

Xuan Zhuo says:

====================
eea: Add basic driver framework for Alibaba Elastic Ethernet Adaptor

Add a driver framework for EEA that will be available in the future.

This driver is currently quite minimal, implementing only fundamental
core functionalities. Key features include: I/O queue management via
adminq, basic PCI-layer operations, and essential RX/TX data
communication capabilities. It also supports the creation,
initialization, and management of network devices (netdev). Furthermore,
the ring structures for both I/O queues and adminq have been abstracted
into a simple, unified, and reusable library implementation,
facilitating future extension and maintenance.

Pull networking deletions from Jakub Kicinski:
"Delete some obsolete networking code

Old code like amateur radio and NFC have long been a burden to core
networking developers. syzbot loves to find bugs in BKL-era code, and
noobs try to fix them.

If we want to have a fighting chance of surviving the LLM-pocalypse
this code needs to find a dedicated owner or get deleted. We've talked
about these deletions multiple times in the past and every time
someone wanted the code to stay. It is never very clear to me how many
of those people actually use the code vs are just nostalgic to see it
go. Amateur radio did have occasional users (or so I think) but most
users switched to user space implementations since its all super slow
stuff. Nobody stepped up to maintain the kernel code.

We were lucky enough to find someone who wants to help with NFC so
we're giving that a chance. Let's try to put the rest of this code
behind us"

====================
Remove a number of ISA and PCMCIA Ethernet drivers

These old drivers have not been much of a Maintenance burden until
recently. Now there are more newbies using AI and fuzzers finding
issues, resulting in more work for Maintainers. Fixing these old
drivers make little sense, if it is not clear they have users.

These mostly ISA and PCMCIA Ethernet devices, mostly from the last
century, a couple from 2001 or 2002. It seems unlikely they are still
used. However, remove them one patch at a time so they can be brought
back if somebody still has the hardware, runs modern kernels and wants
to take up the roll of driver Maintainer.

net: packetengines: remove obsolete yellowfin driver and vendor dir

Similar to the hamachi driver, the yellowfin driver supports hardware
that is over two decades old and no longer in active use.

Since yellowfin was the last remaining driver in the packetengines
vendor directory, we can now safely remove the entire directory and
drop its associated references from the parent Kconfig and Makefile.

This eliminates dead code and reduces the overall maintenance burden
on the netdev subsystem.
