Merge tag 'net-next-6.17' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next
Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski: "Core & protocols:
- Wrap datapath globals into net_aligned_data, to avoid false sharing
- Preserve MSG_ZEROCOPY in forwarding (e.g. out of a container)
- Add SO_INQ and SCM_INQ support to AF_UNIX
- Add SIOCINQ support to AF_VSOCK
- Add TCP_MAXSEG sockopt to MPTCP
- Add IPv6 force_forwarding sysctl to enable forwarding per interface
- Make TCP validation of whether packet fully fits in the receive window and the rcv_buf more strict. With increased use of HW aggregation a single "packet" can be multiple 100s of kB
- Add MSG_MORE flag to optimize large TCP transmissions via sockmap, improves latency up to 33% for sockmap users
- Convert TCP send queue handling from tasklet to BH workque
- Improve BPF iteration over TCP sockets to see each socket exactly once
- Remove obsolete and unused TCP RFC3517/RFC6675 loss recovery code
- Support enabling kernel threads for NAPI processing on per-NAPI instance basis rather than a whole device. Fully stop the kernel NAPI thread when threaded NAPI gets disabled. Previously thread would stick around until ifdown due to tricky synchronization
- Allow multicast routing to take effect on locally-generated packets
- Add output interface argument for End.X in segment routing
- MCTP: add support for gateway routing, improve bind() handling
- Don't require rtnl_lock when fetching an IPv6 neighbor over Netlink
- Add a new neighbor flag ("extern_valid"), which cedes refresh responsibilities to userspace. This is needed for EVPN multi-homing where a neighbor entry for a multi-homed host needs to be synced across all the VTEPs among which the host is multi-homed
- Support NUD_PERMANENT for proxy neighbor entries
- Add a new queuing discipline for IETF RFC9332 DualQ Coupled AQM
- Add sequence numbers to netconsole messages. Unregister netconsole's console when all net targets are removed. Code refactoring. Add a number of selftests
- Align IPSec inbound SA lookup to RFC 4301. Only SPI and protocol should be used for an inbound SA lookup
- Support inspecting ref_tracker state via DebugFS
- Don't force bonding advertisement frames tx to ~333 ms boundaries. Add broadcast_neighbor option to send ARP/ND on all bonded links
- Allow providing upcall pid for the 'execute' command in openvswitch
- Remove DCCP support from Netfilter's conntrack
- Disallow multiple packet duplications in the queuing layer
- Prevent use of deprecated iptables code on PREEMPT_RT
Driver API:
- Support RSS and hashing configuration over ethtool Netlink
- Add dedicated ethtool callbacks for getting and setting hashing fields
- Add support for power budget evaluation strategy in PSE / Power-over-Ethernet. Generate Netlink events for overcurrent etc
- Support DPLL phase offset monitoring across all device inputs. Support providing clock reference and SYNC over separate DPLL inputs
- Support traffic classes in devlink rate API for bandwidth management
- Remove rtnl_lock dependency from UDP tunnel port configuration

Tony Nguyen says:
==================== libeth: add libeth_xdp helper lib
Alexander Lobakin says:
Time to add XDP helpers infra to libeth to greatly simplify adding XDP to idpf and iavf, as well as improve and extend XDP in ice and i40e. Any vendor is free to reuse helpers. If this happens, I'm fine with moving the folder of out intel/.
The helpers greatly simplify building xdp_buff, running a prog, handling the verdict, implement XDP_TX, .ndo_xdp_xmit, XDP buffer completion. Same applies to XSk (with XSk xmit instead of .ndo_xdp_xmit, plus stuff like XSk wakeup). They are entirely generic with no HW definitions or assumptions. HW-specific stuff like parsing Rx desc / filling Tx desc is passed from the driver as inline callbacks.
For now, key assumptions that optimize performance / avoid code bloat, but might not fit every driver in driver/net/: * netmem holding the buffers are always order-0; * driver has separate XDP Tx queues, doesn't use stack queues for that. For best efficiency, you may want to have nr_cpu_ids XDP queues, but less (queue sharing) is also supported; * XDP Tx queues are interrupt-less and use "lazy" cleaning only when there are less than 1/4 free Tx descriptors of the queue size; * main target platforms are 64-bit, although 32-bit is also fully supported, but the code might be not as optimized for them.
Library code already supports multi-buffer for all kinds of Tx and both header split and no split for Rx and Tx. Frags can come from devmem/io_uring etc., direct `struct page *` is used only for header buffers for which it's always true. Drivers are free to pass their own Rx hints and XSK xmit hints ops.
XDP_TX and ndo_xdp_xmit use onstack bulk for the frames to be sent and send them by batches of 16 buffers. This eats ~280 bytes on the stack, but gives good boosts and allow to greatly optimize the main sending function leaving it without any error/exception paths.
XSk xmit fills Tx descriptors in the loop unrolled by 8. This was proven to improve perf on ice and i40e. XDP_TX and ndo_xdp_xmit doesn't use unrolling as I wasn't able to get any improvements in those scenenarios from this, while +1 Kb for their sending functions for nothing doesn't sound reasonable.
XSk wakeup, instead of traditionally used "SW interrupts" provided by NICs, uses IPI to schedule NAPI on the CPU corresponding to the given queue pair. It gives better control over CPU distribution and in general performs way better than "SW interrupts", plus allows us to not pass any HW-specific callbacks there.
The code is built the way that all callbacks passed from drivers get inlined; in general, most of hotpath gets inlined. Everything slow/exception lands to .c files in the libeth folder, doesn't create copies in the drivers themselves and doesn't overloat hotpath. Sure, inlining means that hotpath will be compiled into every driver that uses the lib, but the core code is written in one place, so no copying of bugs happens. Fixed once -- works everywhere.
The last commit might look like sorta hack, but it gives really good boosts and decreases object code size, plus there are checks that all those wider accesses are fully safe, so I don't feel anything bad about it.
An example of using libeth_xdp can be found either on my GitHub or on the mailing lists here ("XDP for idpf"). Macros for building driver XDP functions lead to that some implementations (XDP_TX, ndo_xdp_xmit etc.) consist of really only a few lines.

libeth: xsk: add XSk XDP_TX sending helpers
Add Xsk counterparts for XDP_TX buffer sending and completion. The same base structures and functions used from the libeth_xdp core, with adjustments to that XSk Rx always operates on &xdp_buff_xsk for both head and frags. And unlike regular Rx, here unlikely() are used for frags, as the header split gives no benefits for XSk Rx, at least for now.

libeth: xdp: add XDP_TX buffers sending
Start adding XDP-specific code to libeth, namely handling XDP_TX buffers (only sending). The idea is that we accumulate up to 16 buffers on the stack, then, if either the limit is reached or the polling is finished, flush them at once with only one XDPSQ cleaning (if needed). The main sending function will be aware of the sending budget and already have all the info to send the buffers, so it can't fail. Drivers need to provide 2 inline callbacks to the main sending function: for cleaning an XDPSQ and for filling descriptors; the library code takes care of the rest. Note that unlike the generic code, multi-buffer support is not wrapped here with unlikely() to not hurt header split setups.
&libeth_xdp_buff is a simple extension over &xdp_buff which has a direct pointer to the corresponding Rx descriptor (and, luckily, precisely 1 CL size and 16-byte alignment on x86_64).

Merge tag 'net-next-6.11' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next
Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski: "Not much excitement - a handful of large patchsets (devmem among them) did not make it in time.
Core & protocols:
- Use local_lock in addition to local_bh_disable() to protect per-CPU resources in networking, a step closer for local_bh_disable() not to act as a big lock on PREEMPT_RT
- Use flex array for netdevice priv area, ensure its cache alignment
- Add a sysctl knob to allow user to specify a default rto_min at socket init time. Bit of a big hammer but multiple companies were independently carrying such patch downstream so clearly it's useful
- Support scheduling transmission of packets based on CLOCK_TAI
- Un-pin TCP TIMEWAIT timer to avoid it firing on CPUs later cordoned off using cpusets
- Support multiple L2TPv3 UDP tunnels using the same 5-tuple address
- Allow configuration of multipath hash seed, to both allow synchronizing hashing of two routers, and preventing partial accidental sync
- Improve TCP compliance with RFC 9293 for simultaneous connect()
- Support sending NAT keepalives in IPsec ESP in UDP states. Userspace IKE daemon had to do this before, but the kernel can better keep track of it
- Support sending supervision HSR frames with MAC addresses stored in ProxyNodeTable when RedBox (i.e. HSR-SAN) is enabled
- Introduce IPPROTO_SMC for selecting SMC when socket is created
- Allow UDP GSO transmit from devices with no checksum offload
- openvswitch: add packet sampling via psample, separating the sampled traffic from "upcall" packets sent to user space for forwarding
- nf_tables: shrink memory consumption for transaction objects
Things we sprinkled into general kernel code:
- Power Sequencing subsystem (used by Qualcomm Bluetooth driver for QCA6390) [ Already merged separately - Linus ]
- Add IRQ information in sysfs for auxiliary bus
- Introduce guard definition for local_lock
- Add aligned flavor of __cacheline_group_{begin, end}() markings for grouping fields in structures
BPF:
- Notify user space (via epoll) when a struct_ops object is getting detached/unregistered
- Add new kfuncs for a generic, open-coded bits iterator
- Enable BPF programs to declare arrays of kptr, bpf_rb_root, and bpf_list_head
- Support resilient split BTF which cuts down on duplication and makes BTF as compact as possible WRT BTF from modules
- Add support for dumping kfunc prototypes from BTF which enables both detecting as well as dumping compilable prototypes for kfuncs
- riscv64 BPF JIT improvements in particular to add 12-argument support for BPF trampolines and to utilize bpf_prog_pack for the latter
- Add the capability to offload the netfilter flowtable in XDP layer through kfuncs
Driver API:
- Allow users to configure IRQ tresholds between which automatic IRQ moderation can choose
- Expand Power Sourcing (PoE) status with power, class and failure reason. Support setting power limits
- Track additional RSS contexts in the core, make sure configuration changes don't break them
- Support IPsec crypto offload for IPv6 ESP and IPv4 UDP-encapsulated ESP data paths
- Support updating firmware on SFP modules
Tests and tooling:

Merge branch 'intel-wired-lan-driver-updates-2024-06-03'
Jacob Keller says:
==================== Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2024-06-03
This series includes miscellaneous improvements for the ice as well as a cleanup to the Makefiles for all Intel net drivers.
Andy fixes all of the Intel net driver Makefiles to use the documented '*-y' syntax for specifying object files to link into kernel driver modules, rather than the '*-objs' syntax which works but is documented as reserved for user-space host programs.
Jacob has a cleanup to refactor rounding logic in the ice driver into a common roundup_u64 helper function.
Michal Schmidt replaces irq_set_affinity_hint() to use irq_update_affinity_hint() which behaves better with user-applied affinity settings.

net: intel: Use *-y instead of *-objs in Makefile
*-objs suffix is reserved rather for (user-space) host programs while usually *-y suffix is used for kernel drivers (although *-objs works for that purpose for now).
Let's correct the old usages of *-objs in Makefiles.
