Merge tag 'net-next-6.16' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next
Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni: "Core:
- Implement the Device Memory TCP transmit path, allowing zero-copy data transmission on top of TCP from e.g. GPU memory to the wire.
- Move all the IPv6 routing tables management outside the RTNL scope, under its own lock and RCU. The route control path is now 3x times faster.
- Convert queue related netlink ops to instance lock, reducing again the scope of the RTNL lock. This improves the control plane scalability.
- Refactor the software crc32c implementation, removing unneeded abstraction layers and improving significantly the related micro-benchmarks.
- Optimize the GRO engine for UDP-tunneled traffic, for a 10% performance improvement in related stream tests.
- Cover more per-CPU storage with local nested BH locking; this is a prep work to remove the current per-CPU lock in local_bh_disable() on PREMPT_RT.
- Introduce and use nlmsg_payload helper, combining buffer bounds verification with accessing payload carried by netlink messages.
Netfilter:
- Rewrite the procfs conntrack table implementation, improving considerably the dump performance. A lot of user-space tools still use this interface.
- Implement support for wildcard netdevice in netdev basechain and flowtables.
- Integrate conntrack information into nft trace infrastructure.
- Export set count and backend name to userspace, for better introspection.
BPF:
- BPF qdisc support: BPF-qdisc can be implemented with BPF struct_ops programs and can be controlled in similar way to traditional qdiscs using the "tc qdisc" command.
- Refactor the UDP socket iterator, addressing long standing issues WRT duplicate hits or missed sockets.
Protocols:
- Improve TCP receive buffer auto-tuning and increase the default upper bound for the receive buffer; overall this improves the single flow maximum thoughput on 200Gbs link by over 60%.
- Add AFS GSSAPI security class to AF_RXRPC; it provides transport security for connections to the AFS fileserver and VL server.
- Improve TCP multipath routing, so that the sources address always matches the nexthop device.
- Introduce SO_PASSRIGHTS for AF_UNIX, to allow disabling SCM_RIGHTS, and thus preventing DoS caused by passing around problematic FDs.
- Retire DCCP socket. DCCP only receives updates for bugs, and major distros disable it by default. Its removal allows for better organisation of TCP fields to reduce the number of cache lines hit in the fast path.
- Extend TCP drop-reason support to cover PAWS checks.
Driver API:
- Reorganize PTP ioctl flag support to require an explicit opt-in for the drivers, avoiding the problem of drivers not rejecting new unsupported flags.
- Converted several device drivers to timestamping APIs.
- Introduce per-PHY ethtool dump helpers, improving the support for dump operations targeting PHYs.
Tests and tooling:
- Add support for classic netlink in user space C codegen, so that ynl-c can now read, create and modify links, routes addresses and qdisc layer configuration.
- Add ynl sub-types for binary attributes, allowing ynl-c to output known struct instead of raw binary data, clarifying the classic netlink output.
- Extend MPTCP selftests to improve the code-coverage.
- Add tests for XDP tail adjustment in AF_XDP.
New hardware / drivers:
- OpenVPN virtual driver: offload OpenVPN data channels processing to the kernel-space, increasing the data transfer throughput WRT the user-space implementation.
- Renesas glue driver for the gigabit ethernet RZ/V2H(P) SoC.
- Broadcom asp-v3.0 ethernet driver.
- AMD Renoir ethernet device.
- ReakTek MT9888 2.5G ethernet PHY driver.
- Aeonsemi 10G C45 PHYs driver.

ovpn: implement TCP transport
With this change ovpn is allowed to communicate to peers also via TCP. Parsing of incoming messages is implemented through the strparser API.
Note that ovpn redefines sk_prot and sk_socket->ops for the TCP socket used to communicate with the peer. For this reason it needs to access inet6_stream_ops, which is declared as extern in the IPv6 module, but it is not fully exported.
Therefore this patch is also adding EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(inet6_stream_ops) to net/ipv6/af_inet6.c.

net: introduce OpenVPN Data Channel Offload (ovpn)
OpenVPN is a userspace software existing since around 2005 that allows users to create secure tunnels.
So far OpenVPN has implemented all operations in userspace, which implies several back and forth between kernel and user land in order to process packets (encapsulate/decapsulate, encrypt/decrypt, rerouting..).
With `ovpn` we intend to move the fast path (data channel) entirely in kernel space and thus improve user measured throughput over the tunnel.
`ovpn` is implemented as a simple virtual network device driver, that can be manipulated by means of the standard RTNL APIs. A device of kind `ovpn` allows only IPv4/6 traffic and can be of type: * P2P (peer-to-peer): any packet sent over the interface will be encapsulated and transmitted to the other side (typical OpenVPN client or peer-to-peer behaviour); * P2MP (point-to-multipoint): packets sent over the interface are transmitted to peers based on existing routes (typical OpenVPN server behaviour).
After the interface has been created, OpenVPN in userspace can configure it using a new Netlink API. Specifically it is possible to manage peers and their keys.
The OpenVPN control channel is multiplexed over the same transport socket by means of OP codes. Anything that is not DATA_V2 (OpenVPN OP code for data traffic) is sent to userspace and handled there. This way the `ovpn` codebase is kept as compact as possible while focusing on handling data traffic only (fast path).
Any OpenVPN control feature (like cipher negotiation, TLS handshake, rekeying, etc.) is still fully handled by the userspace process.
When userspace establishes a new connection with a peer, it first performs the handshake and then passes the socket to the `ovpn` kernel module, which takes ownership. From this moment on `ovpn` will handle data traffic for the new peer. When control packets are received on the link, they are forwarded to userspace through the same transport socket they were received on, as userspace is still listening to them.
Some events (like peer deletion) are sent to a Netlink multicast group.
Although it wasn't easy to convince the community, `ovpn` implements only a limited number of the data-channel features supported by the userspace program.
Each feature that made it to `ovpn` was attentively vetted to avoid carrying too much legacy along with us (and to give a clear cut to old and probalby-not-so-useful features).
Notably, only encryption using AEAD ciphers (specifically ChaCha20Poly1305 and AES-GCM) was implemented. Supporting any other cipher out there was not deemed useful.
Both UDP and TCP sockets are supported.
As explained above, in case of P2MP mode, OpenVPN will use the main system routing table to decide which packet goes to which peer. This implies that no routing table was re-implemented in the `ovpn` kernel module.
This kernel module can be enabled by selecting the CONFIG_OVPN entry in the networking drivers section.
NOTE: this first patch introduces the very basic framework only. Features are then added patch by patch, however, although each patch will compile and possibly not break at runtime, only after having applied the full set it is expected to see the ovpn module fully working.
