Merge tag 'net-next-7.1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next
Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski: "Core & protocols:
- Support HW queue leasing, allowing containers to be granted access to HW queues for zero-copy operations and AF_XDP
- Number of code moves to help the compiler with inlining. Avoid output arguments for returning drop reason where possible
- Rework drop handling within qdiscs to include more metadata about the reason and dropping qdisc in the tracepoints
- Remove the rtnl_lock use from IP Multicast Routing
- Pack size information into the Rx Flow Steering table pointer itself. This allows making the table itself a flat array of u32s, thus making the table allocation size a power of two
- Report TCP delayed ack timer information via socket diag
- Add ip_local_port_step_width sysctl to allow distributing the randomly selected ports more evenly throughout the allowed space
- Add support for per-route tunsrc in IPv6 segment routing
- Start work of switching sockopt handling to iov_iter
- Improve dynamic recvbuf sizing in MPTCP, limit burstiness and avoid buffer size drifting up
- Support MSG_EOR in MPTCP
- Add stp_mode attribute to the bridge driver for STP mode selection. This addresses concerns about call_usermodehelper() usage
- Remove UDP-Lite support (as announced in 2023)
- Remove support for building IPv6 as a module. Remove the now unnecessary function calling indirection
Cross-tree stuff:
- Move Michael MIC code from generic crypto into wireless, it's considered insecure but some WiFi networks still need it
Netfilter:
- Switch nft_fib_ipv6 module to no longer need temporary dst_entry object allocations by using fib6_lookup() + RCU.
Florian W reports this gets us ~13% higher packet rate
- Convert IPVS's global __ip_vs_mutex to per-net service_mutex and switch the service tables to be per-net. Convert some code that walks the service lists to use RCU instead of the service_mutex
- Add more opinionated input validation to lower security exposure
- Make IPVS hash tables to be per-netns and resizable
Wireless:
- Finished assoc frame encryption/EPPKE/802.1X-over-auth
- Radar detection improvements
- Add 6 GHz incumbent signal detection APIs
- Multi-link support for FILS, probe response templates and client probing
- New APIs and mac80211 support for NAN (Neighbor Aware Networking, aka Wi-Fi Aware) so less work must be in firmware
Driver API:
- Add numerical ID for devlink instances (to avoid having to create fake bus/device pairs just to have an ID). Support shared devlink instances which span multiple PFs
- Add standard counters for reporting pause storm events (implement in mlx5 and fbnic)
- Add configuration API for completion writeback buffering (implement in mana)
- Support driver-initiated change of RSS context sizes
- Support DPLL monitoring input frequency (implement in zl3073x)
- Support per-port resources in devlink (implement in mlx5)
Misc:
- Expand the YAML spec for Netfilter

Merge branch 'convert-config_ipv6-to-built-in-and-remove-stubs'
Fernando Fernandez Mancera says:
==================== Convert CONFIG_IPV6 to built-in and remove stubs
Historically, the Linux kernel has supported compiling the IPv6 stack as a loadable module. While this made sense in the early days of IPv6 adoption, modern deployments and distributions overwhelmingly either build IPv6 directly into the kernel (CONFIG_IPV6=y) or disable it entirely (CONFIG_IPV6=n). The modular IPv6 use-case offers image size and memory savings for specific setups, this benefit is outweighed by the architectural burden it imposes on the subsystems on implementation and maintenance.
In addition, most of the distributions are already using CONFIG_IPV6=y by default [1], including openWRT [2] and Android gki_defconfig [3]. So this won't have an impact on them. The most impacted architecture would probably be arm64 as their default config is still using CONFIG_IPV6=m.
To allow core networking, BPF, Netfilter, and various device drivers to safely interact with a potentially unloaded IPv6 module, the kernel relies on indirect call structures like ipv6_stub, ipv6_bpf_stub, and nf_ipv6_ops, along with dynamic RCU registrations for things like ICMPv6 senders.
This patch series addresses this by changing CONFIG_IPV6 from a tristate to a boolean, enforcing that IPv6 is either built-in or disabled. This allows us to completely rip out the stub infrastructures and safely replace them with direct function calls.
The bloat-o-meter report the following results for m68k, arm64, x86_64 defconfig.
m68k (keep on mind that CONFIG_IPV6 is disabled now): add/remove: 65/938 grow/shrink: 36/254 up/down: 3022/-49692 (-46670)
arm64: add/remove: 1251/265 grow/shrink: 81/46 up/down: 448740/-71519 (377221)
x86_64: add/remove: 62/98 grow/shrink: 10/39 up/down: 2497/-4357 (-1860)
Considering that each new kernel release increases sizes by 30-40KiB on average, this size increase isn't a huge jump for the distributions that are still using CONFIG_IPV6=m. For the ones that are already using CONFIG_IPV6=y, the size is reduced actually.
All the patches has been independently build tested. With allmodconfig and allmodconfig + CONFIG_IPV6=n. In addition, net selftest has been run against them on virtme-ng.
The series applied as a whole as been tested with allyesconfig and also allyesconfig + CONFIG_IPV6=n but not all patches has been independently tested this way.

ipv6: convert CONFIG_IPV6 to built-in only and clean up Kconfigs
Maintaining a modular IPv6 stack offers image size savings for specific setups, this benefit is outweighed by the architectural burden it imposes on the subsystems on implementation and maintenance. Therefore, drop it.
Change CONFIG_IPV6 from tristate to bool. Remove all Kconfig dependencies across the tree that explicitly checked for IPV6=m. In addition, remove MODULE_DESCRIPTION(), MODULE_ALIAS(), MODULE_AUTHOR() and MODULE_LICENSE().
This is also replacing module_init() by device_initcall(). It is not possible to use fs_initcall() as IPv4 does because that creates a race condition on IPv6 addrconf.
Finally, modify the default configs from CONFIG_IPV6=m to CONFIG_IPV6=y except for m68k as according to the bloat-o-meter the image is increasing by 330KB~ and that isn't acceptable. Instead, disable IPv6 on this architecture by default. This is aligned with m68k RAM requirements and recommendations [1].

ethernet: fix PTP_1588_CLOCK dependencies
The 'imply' keyword does not do what most people think it does, it only politely asks Kconfig to turn on another symbol, but does not prevent it from being disabled manually or built as a loadable module when the user is built-in. In the ICE driver, the latter now causes a link failure:
aarch64-linux-ld: drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_main.o: in function `ice_eth_ioctl': ice_main.c:(.text+0x13b0): undefined reference to `ice_ptp_get_ts_config' ice_main.c:(.text+0x13b0): relocation truncated to fit: R_AARCH64_CALL26 against undefined symbol `ice_ptp_get_ts_config' aarch64-linux-ld: ice_main.c:(.text+0x13bc): undefined reference to `ice_ptp_set_ts_config' ice_main.c:(.text+0x13bc): relocation truncated to fit: R_AARCH64_CALL26 against undefined symbol `ice_ptp_set_ts_config' aarch64-linux-ld: drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_main.o: in function `ice_prepare_for_reset': ice_main.c:(.text+0x31fc): undefined reference to `ice_ptp_release' ice_main.c:(.text+0x31fc): relocation truncated to fit: R_AARCH64_CALL26 against undefined symbol `ice_ptp_release' aarch64-linux-ld: drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_main.o: in function `ice_rebuild':
This is a recurring problem in many drivers, and we have discussed it several times befores, without reaching a consensus. I'm providing a link to the previous email thread for reference, which discusses some related problems.
To solve the dependency issue better than the 'imply' keyword, introduce a separate Kconfig symbol "CONFIG_PTP_1588_CLOCK_OPTIONAL" that any driver can depend on if it is able to use PTP support when available, but works fine without it. Whenever CONFIG_PTP_1588_CLOCK=m, those drivers are then prevented from being built-in, the same way as with a 'depends on PTP_1588_CLOCK || !PTP_1588_CLOCK' dependency that does the same trick, but that can be rather confusing when you first see it.
Since this should cover the dependencies correctly, the IS_REACHABLE() hack in the header is no longer needed now, and can be turned back into a normal IS_ENABLED() check. Any driver that gets the dependency wrong will now cause a link time failure rather than being unable to use PTP support when that is in a loadable module.
However, the two recently added ptp_get_vclocks_index() and ptp_convert_timestamp() interfaces are only called from builtin code with ethtool and socket timestamps, so keep the current behavior by stubbing those out completely when PTP is in a loadable module. This should be addressed properly in a follow-up.
As Richard suggested, we may want to actually turn PTP support into a 'bool' option later on, preventing it from being a loadable module altogether, which would be one way to solve the problem with the ethtool interface.
