Merge tag 'net-next-6.12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next
Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski: "The zero-copy changes are relatively significant, but regression risk should be contained. The feature needs to be used to cause trouble.
Also it feels like we got an order of magnitude more semi-automated "refactoring" chaff than usual, I wonder if it's just us.
Core & protocols:
- Support Device Memory TCP, ability to zero-copy receive TCP payloads to a DMABUF region of memory while packet headers land separately in normal kernel buffers, and TCP processes then as usual.
- The ability to read the PTP PHC (Physical Hardware Clock) alongside MONOTONIC_RAW timestamps with PTP_SYS_OFFSET_EXTENDED. Previously only CLOCK_REALTIME was supported.
- Allow matching on all bits of IP DSCP for routing decisions. Previously we only supported on matching TOS bits in IPv4 which is a narrower interpretation of the same header field.
- Increase the range of weights used for multi-path routing from 8 bits to 16 bits.
- Add support for IPv6 PIO p flag in the Prefix Information Option per draft-ietf-6man-pio-pflag.
- IPv6 IOAM6 support for new tunsrc encap mode for better performance.
- Detect destinations which blackhole MPTCP traffic and avoid initiating MPTCP connections to them for a certain period of time, 1h by default.
- Improve IPsec control path performance by removing the inexact policies list.
- AF_VSOCK: add support for SIOCOUTQ ioctl.
- Add enum for reasons TCP reset was sent for easier tracing.
- Add SMC ringbufs usage statistics.
Drivers:
- Handle netconsole setup failures more gracefully, don't fail loading, retain the specified target as disabled.
- Extend bonding's IPsec offload pass thru capabilities (ESN, stats).
Filtering:
- Add TCP_BPF_SOCK_OPS_CB_FLAGS to bpf_*sockopt() to address the case when long-lived sockets miss a chance to set additional callbacks if a sockops program was not attached early in their lifetime.
- Support using BPF skb helpers in tracepoints.
- Conntrack Netlink: support CTA_FILTER for flush.
- Improve SCTP support in nfnetlink_queue.
- Improve performance of large nftables flush transactions.
Things we sprinkled into general kernel code:
- selftests: support setting an "interpreter" for script files; make it easy to run as separate cases tests where one "interpreter" is fed various test descriptions (in our case packet sequences).
Driver API:
- Extend core and ethtool APIs to support many PHYs connected to a single interface (PHY topologies).
- Extend cable diagnostics to specify whether Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR) or Active Link Cable Diagnostic (ALCD) was used.
- Add library for implementing MAC-PHY Ethernet drivers for SPI devices compatible with Open Alliance 10BASE-T1x MAC-PHY Serial Interface (TC6) standard.
- Add helpers to the PHY framework, for PHYs following the Open Alliance standards: - 1000BaseT1 link settings - cable test and diagnostics
- Support listing / dumping all allocated RSS contexts.
- Add configuration for frequency Embedded SYNC in DPLL, which magically embeds sync pulses into Ethernet signaling.

Merge tag 'mlx5-updates-2024-09-02' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/saeed/linux
Saeed Mahameed says:
==================== mlx5-updates-2024-08-29
HW-Managed Flow Steering in mlx5 driver
Yevgeny Kliteynik says: =======================
1. Overview -----------
ConnectX devices support packet matching, modification, and redirection. This functionality is referred as Flow Steering. To configure a steering rule, the rule is written to the device-owned memory. This memory is accessed and cached by the device when processing a packet.
The first implementation of Flow Steering was done in FW, and it is referred in the mlx5 driver as Device-Managed Flow Steering (DMFS). Later we introduced SW-managed Flow Steering (SWS or SMFS), where the driver is writing directly to the device's configuration memory (ICM) through RC QP using RDMA operations (RDMA-read and RDAM-write), thus achieving higher rates of rule insertion/deletion.
Now we introduce a new flow steering implementation: HW-Managed Flow Steering (HWS or HMFS).
In this new approach, the driver is configuring steering rules directly to the HW using the WQs with a special new type of WQE. This way we can reach higher rule insertion/deletion rate with much lower CPU utilization compared to SWS.
The key benefits of HWS as opposed to SWS: + HW manages the steering decision tree - HW calculates CRC for each entry - HW handles tree hash collisions - HW & FW manage objects refcount + HW keeps cache coherency: - HW provides tree access locking and synchronization - HW provides notification on completion + Insertion rate isn’t affected by background traffic - Dedicated HW components that handle insertion
2. Performance --------------
Measuring Connection Tracking with simple IPv4 flows w/o NAT, we are able to get ~5 times more flows offloaded per second using HWS.
3. Configuration ----------------
The enablement of HWS mode in eswitch manager is done using the same devlink param that is already used for switching between FW-managed steering and SW-managed steering modes:
# devlink dev param set pci/<PCI_ID> name flow_steering_mode cmod runtime value hmfs
4. Upstream Submission ----------------------
HWS support consists of 3 main components: + Steering: - The lower layer that exposes HWS API to upper layers and implements all the management of flow steering building blocks + FS-Core - Implementation of fs_hws layer to enable fs_core to use HWS instead of FW or SW steering - Create HW steering action pools to utilize the ability of HWS to share steering actions among different rules - Add support for configuring HWS mode through devlink command, similar to configuring SWS mode + Connection Tracking - Implementation of CT support for HW steering - Hooks up the CT ops for the new steering mode and uses the HWS API to implement connection tracking.
Because of the large number of patches, we need to perform the submission in several separate patch series. This series is the first submission that lays the ground work for the next submissions, where an actual user of HWS will be added.
5. Patches in this series -------------------------
This patch series contains implementation of the first bullet from above.

Merge tag 'net-next-6.7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next
Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski: "Core & protocols:
- Support usec resolution of TCP timestamps, enabled selectively by a route attribute.
- Defer regular TCP ACK while processing socket backlog, try to send a cumulative ACK at the end. Increase single TCP flow performance on a 200Gbit NIC by 20% (100Gbit -> 120Gbit).
- The Fair Queuing (FQ) packet scheduler: - add built-in 3 band prio / WRR scheduling - support bypass if the qdisc is mostly idle (5% speed up for TCP RR) - improve inactive flow reporting - optimize the layout of structures for better cache locality
- Support TCP Authentication Option (RFC 5925, TCP-AO), a more modern replacement for the old MD5 option.
- Add more retransmission timeout (RTO) related statistics to TCP_INFO.
- Support sending fragmented skbs over vsock sockets.
- Make sure we send SIGPIPE for vsock sockets if socket was shutdown().
- Add sysctl for ignoring lower limit on lifetime in Router Advertisement PIO, based on an in-progress IETF draft.
- Add sysctl to control activation of TCP ping-pong mode.
- Add sysctl to make connection timeout in MPTCP configurable.
- Support rcvlowat and notsent_lowat on MPTCP sockets, to help apps limit the number of wakeups.
- Support netlink GET for MDB (multicast forwarding), allowing user space to request a single MDB entry instead of dumping the entire table.
- Support selective FDB flushing in the VXLAN tunnel driver.
- Allow limiting learned FDB entries in bridges, prevent OOM attacks.
- Allow controlling via configfs netconsole targets which were created via the kernel cmdline at boot, rather than via configfs at runtime.
- Support multiple PTP timestamp event queue readers with different filters.
- MCTP over I3C.
BPF:
- Add new veth-like netdevice where BPF program defines the logic of the xmit routine. It can operate in L3 and L2 mode.
- Support exceptions - allow asserting conditions which should never be true but are hard for the verifier to infer. With some extra flexibility around handling of the exit / failure:
https://lwn.net/Articles/938435/
- Add support for local per-cpu kptr, allow allocating and storing per-cpu objects in maps. Access to those objects operates on the value for the current CPU.
This allows to deprecate local one-off implementations of per-CPU storage like BPF_MAP_TYPE_PERCPU_CGROUP_STORAGE maps.
- Extend cgroup BPF sockaddr hooks for UNIX sockets. The use case is for systemd to re-implement the LogNamespace feature which allows running multiple instances of systemd-journald to process the logs of different services.
- Enable open-coded task_vma iteration, after maple tree conversion made it hard to directly walk VMAs in tracing programs.
- Add open-coded task, css_task and css iterator support. One of the use cases is customizable OOM victim selection via BPF.
- Allow source address selection with bpf_*_fib_lookup().
- Add ability to pin BPF timer to the current CPU.
- Prevent creation of infinite loops by combining tail calls and fentry/fexit programs.
- Add missed stats for kprobes to retrieve the number of missed kprobe executions and subsequent executions of BPF programs.
- Inherit system settings for CPU security mitigations.
- Add BPF v4 CPU instruction support for arm32 and s390x.
Changes to common code:
- overflow: add DEFINE_FLEX() for on-stack definition of structs with flexible array members.
- Process doc update with more guidance for reviewers.
Driver API:
- Simplify locking in WiFi (cfg80211 and mac80211 layers), use wiphy mutex in most places and remove a lot of smaller locks.
- Create a common DPLL configuration API. Allow configuring and querying state of PLL circuits used for clock syntonization, in network time distribution.
- Unify fragmented and full page allocation APIs in page pool code. Let drivers be ignorant of PAGE_SIZE.
- Rework PHY state machine to avoid races with calls to phy_stop().
- Notify DSA drivers of MAC address changes on user ports, improve correctness of offloads which depend on matching port MAC addresses.
- Allow antenna control on injected WiFi frames.
- Reduce the number of variants of napi_schedule().
- Simplify error handling when composing devlink health messages.
Misc:
- A lot of KCSAN data race "fixes", from Eric.
- A lot of __counted_by() annotations, from Kees.
- A lot of strncpy -> strscpy and printf format fixes.
- Replace master/slave terminology with conduit/user in DSA drivers.
- Handful of KUnit tests for netdev and WiFi core.
Removed:
- AppleTalk COPS.
- AppleTalk ipddp.
- TI AR7 CPMAC Ethernet driver.
