wifi: ath12k: correct the data_type from QMI_OPT_FLAG to QMI_UNSIGNED_1_BYTE for mlo_capable

Currently, the encoding rule for field mlo_capable in struct
qmi_wlanfw_host_cap_req_msg_v01 defined in array
qmi_wlanfw_host_cap_req_msg_v01_ei uses type QMI_OPT_FLAG.

Unfortunately, all ath12k firmware actually expects this field to be of
type NON QMI_OPT_FLAG such as QMI_UNSIGNED_1_BYTE/QMI_UNSIGNED_8_BYTE...
And as a result, firmware is unable to correctly decode the mlo_capable
field.

Change the ath12k definition as QMI_UNSIGNED_1_BYTE to match the firmware
definition so that firmware can correctly parse the mlo_capable info from
message QMI_WLANFW_HOST_CAP_REQ_V01 at wlan load time.

This is just an accidental typo and that both WCN7850 and QCN9274 firmwares
use QMI_UNSIGNED_1_BYTE.

Merge tag 'net-next-6.5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next

Pull networking changes from Jakub Kicinski:
"WiFi 7 and sendpage changes are the biggest pieces of work for this
release. The latter will definitely require fixes but I think that we
got it to a reasonable point.

Core:

- Rework the sendpage & splice implementations

Instead of feeding data into sockets page by page extend sendmsg
handlers to support taking a reference on the data, controlled by a
new flag called MSG_SPLICE_PAGES

Rework the handling of unexpected-end-of-file to invoke an
additional callback instead of trying to predict what the right
combination of MORE/NOTLAST flags is

Remove the MSG_SENDPAGE_NOTLAST flag completely

- Implement SCM_PIDFD, a new type of CMSG type analogous to
SCM_CREDENTIALS, but it contains pidfd instead of plain pid

- Enable socket busy polling with CONFIG_RT

- Improve reliability and efficiency of reporting for ref_tracker

- Auto-generate a user space C library for various Netlink families

Protocols:

- Allow TCP to shrink the advertised window when necessary, prevent
sk_rcvbuf auto-tuning from growing the window all the way up to
tcp_rmem[2]

- Use per-VMA locking for "page-flipping" TCP receive zerocopy

- Prepare TCP for device-to-device data transfers, by making sure
that payloads are always attached to skbs as page frags

- Make the backoff time for the first N TCP SYN retransmissions
linear. Exponential backoff is unnecessarily conservative

- Create a new MPTCP getsockopt to retrieve all info
(MPTCP_FULL_INFO)

- Avoid waking up applications using TLS sockets until we have a full
record

- Allow using kernel memory for protocol ioctl callbacks, paving the
way to issuing ioctls over io_uring

- Add nolocalbypass option to VxLAN, forcing packets to be fully
encapsulated even if they are destined for a local IP address

- Make TCPv4 use consistent hash in TIME_WAIT and SYN_RECV. Ensure
in-kernel ECMP implementation (e.g. Open vSwitch) select the same
link for all packets. Support L4 symmetric hashing in Open vSwitch

- PPPoE: make number of hash bits configurable

- Allow DNS to be overwritten by DHCPACK in the in-kernel DHCP client
(ipconfig)

- Add layer 2 miss indication and filtering, allowing higher layers
(e.g. ACL filters) to make forwarding decisions based on whether
packet matched forwarding state in lower devices (bridge)

- Support matching on Connectivity Fault Management (CFM) packets

- Hide the "link becomes ready" IPv6 messages by demoting their
printk level to debug

- HSR: don't enable promiscuous mode if device offloads the proto

- Support active scanning in IEEE 802.15.4

- Continue work on Multi-Link Operation for WiFi 7

BPF:

- Add precision propagation for subprogs and callbacks. This allows
maintaining verification efficiency when subprograms are used, or
in fact passing the verifier at all for complex programs,
especially those using open-coded iterators

- Improve BPF's {g,s}setsockopt() length handling. Previously BPF
assumed the length is always equal to the amount of written data.
But some protos allow passing a NULL buffer to discover what the
output buffer *should* be, without writing anything

- Accept dynptr memory as memory arguments passed to helpers

- Add routing table ID to bpf_fib_lookup BPF helper

- Support O_PATH FDs in BPF_OBJ_PIN and BPF_OBJ_GET commands

- Drop bpf_capable() check in BPF_MAP_FREEZE command (used to mark
maps as read-only)

- Show target_{obj,btf}_id in tracing link fdinfo

- Addition of several new kfuncs (most of the names are
self-explanatory):
- Add a set of new dynptr kfuncs: bpf_dynptr_adjust(),
bpf_dynptr_is_null(), bpf_dynptr_is_rdonly(), bpf_dynptr_size()
and bpf_dynptr_clone().
- bpf_task_under_cgroup()
- bpf_sock_destroy() - force closing sockets
- bpf_cpumask_first_and(), rework bpf_cpumask_any*() kfuncs

Netfilter:

- Relax set/map validation checks in nf_tables. Allow checking
presence of an entry in a map without using the value

- Increase ip_vs_conn_tab_bits range for 64BIT builds

- Allow updating size of a set

- Improve NAT tuple selection when connection is closing

Driver API:

- Integrate netdev with LED subsystem, to allow configuring HW
"offloaded" blinking of LEDs based on link state and activity
(i.e. packets coming in and out)

- Support configuring rate selection pins of SFP modules

- Factor Clause 73 auto-negotiation code out of the drivers, provide
common helper routines

- Add more fool-proof helpers for managing lifetime of MDIO devices
associated with the PCS layer

- Allow drivers to report advanced statistics related to Time Aware
scheduler offload (taprio)

- Allow opting out of VF statistics in link dump, to allow more VFs
to fit into the message

- Split devlink instance and devlink port operations

Merge tag 'wq-for-6.5-cleanup-ordered' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq

Pull ordered workqueue creation updates from Tejun Heo:
"For historical reasons, unbound workqueues with max concurrency limit
of 1 are considered ordered, even though the concurrency limit hasn't
been system-wide for a long time.

This creates ambiguity around whether ordered execution is actually
required for correctness, which was actually confusing for e.g. btrfs
(btrfs updates are being routed through the btrfs tree).

There aren't that many users in the tree which use the combination and
there are pending improvements to unbound workqueue affinity handling
which will make inadvertent use of ordered workqueue a bigger loss.

This clarifies the situation for most of them by updating the ones
which require ordered execution to use alloc_ordered_workqueue().

There are some conversions being routed through subsystem-specific
trees and likely a few stragglers. Once they're all converted,
workqueue can trigger a warning on unbound + @max_active==1 usages and
eventually drop the implicit ordered behavior"

wifi: ath10/11/12k: Use alloc_ordered_workqueue() to create ordered workqueues

BACKGROUND
==========

When multiple work items are queued to a workqueue, their execution order
doesn't match the queueing order. They may get executed in any order and
simultaneously. When fully serialized execution - one by one in the queueing
order - is needed, an ordered workqueue should be used which can be created
with alloc_ordered_workqueue().

However, alloc_ordered_workqueue() was a later addition. Before it, an
ordered workqueue could be obtained by creating an UNBOUND workqueue with
@max_active==1. This originally was an implementation side-effect which was
broken by 4c16bd327c74 ("workqueue: restore WQ_UNBOUND/max_active==1 to be
ordered"). Because there were users that depended on the ordered execution,
5c0338c68706 ("workqueue: restore WQ_UNBOUND/max_active==1 to be ordered")
made workqueue allocation path to implicitly promote UNBOUND workqueues w/
@max_active==1 to ordered workqueues.

While this has worked okay, overloading the UNBOUND allocation interface
this way creates other issues. It's difficult to tell whether a given
workqueue actually needs to be ordered and users that legitimately want a
min concurrency level wq unexpectedly gets an ordered one instead. With
planned UNBOUND workqueue updates to improve execution locality and more
prevalence of chiplet designs which can benefit from such improvements, this
isn't a state we wanna be in forever.

This patch series audits all callsites that create an UNBOUND workqueue w/
@max_active==1 and converts them to alloc_ordered_workqueue() as necessary.

WHAT TO LOOK FOR
================

The conversions are from

alloc_workqueue(WQ_UNBOUND | flags, 1, args..)

to

alloc_ordered_workqueue(flags, args...)

which don't cause any functional changes. If you know that fully ordered
execution is not ncessary, please let me know. I'll drop the conversion and
instead add a comment noting the fact to reduce confusion while conversion
is in progress.

If you aren't fully sure, it's completely fine to let the conversion
through. The behavior will stay exactly the same and we can always
reconsider later.

As there are follow-up workqueue core changes, I'd really appreciate if the
patch can be routed through the workqueue tree w/ your acks. Thanks.

Merge tag 'net-next-6.4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next

Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
"Core:

- Introduce a config option to tweak MAX_SKB_FRAGS. Increasing the
default value allows for better BIG TCP performances

- Reduce compound page head access for zero-copy data transfers

- RPS/RFS improvements, avoiding unneeded NET_RX_SOFTIRQ when
possible

- Threaded NAPI improvements, adding defer skb free support and
unneeded softirq avoidance

- Address dst_entry reference count scalability issues, via false
sharing avoidance and optimize refcount tracking

- Add lockless accesses annotation to sk_err[_soft]

- Optimize again the skb struct layout

- Extends the skb drop reasons to make it usable by multiple
subsystems

- Better const qualifier awareness for socket casts

BPF:

- Add skb and XDP typed dynptrs which allow BPF programs for more
ergonomic and less brittle iteration through data and
variable-sized accesses

- Add a new BPF netfilter program type and minimal support to hook
BPF programs to netfilter hooks such as prerouting or forward

- Add more precise memory usage reporting for all BPF map types

- Adds support for using {FOU,GUE} encap with an ipip device
operating in collect_md mode and add a set of BPF kfuncs for
controlling encap params

- Allow BPF programs to detect at load time whether a particular
kfunc exists or not, and also add support for this in light
skeleton

- Bigger batch of BPF verifier improvements to prepare for upcoming
BPF open-coded iterators allowing for less restrictive looping
capabilities

- Rework RCU enforcement in the verifier, add kptr_rcu and enforce
BPF programs to NULL-check before passing such pointers into kfunc

- Add support for kptrs in percpu hashmaps, percpu LRU hashmaps and
in local storage maps

- Enable RCU semantics for task BPF kptrs and allow referenced kptr
tasks to be stored in BPF maps

- Add support for refcounted local kptrs to the verifier for allowing
shared ownership, useful for adding a node to both the BPF list and
rbtree

- Add BPF verifier support for ST instructions in
convert_ctx_access() which will help new -mcpu=v4 clang flag to
start emitting them

- Add ARM32 USDT support to libbpf

- Improve bpftool's visual program dump which produces the control
flow graph in a DOT format by adding C source inline annotations

Protocols:

- IPv4: Allow adding to IPv4 address a 'protocol' tag. Such value
indicates the provenance of the IP address

- IPv6: optimize route lookup, dropping unneeded R/W lock acquisition

- Add the handshake upcall mechanism, allowing the user-space to
implement generic TLS handshake on kernel's behalf

- Bridge: support per-{Port, VLAN} neighbor suppression, increasing
resilience to nodes failures

- SCTP: add support for Fair Capacity and Weighted Fair Queueing
schedulers

- MPTCP: delay first subflow allocation up to its first usage. This
will allow for later better LSM interaction

- xfrm: Remove inner/outer modes from input/output path. These are
not needed anymore

- WiFi:
- reduced neighbor report (RNR) handling for AP mode
- HW timestamping support
- support for randomized auth/deauth TA for PASN privacy
- per-link debugfs for multi-link
- TC offload support for mac80211 drivers
- mac80211 mesh fast-xmit and fast-rx support
- enable Wi-Fi 7 (EHT) mesh support

Netfilter:

- Add nf_tables 'brouting' support, to force a packet to be routed
instead of being bridged

- Update bridge netfilter and ovs conntrack helpers to handle IPv6
Jumbo packets properly, i.e. fetch the packet length from
hop-by-hop extension header. This is needed for BIT TCP support

- The iptables 32bit compat interface isn't compiled in by default
anymore

- Move ip(6)tables builtin icmp matches to the udptcp one. This has
the advantage that icmp/icmpv6 match doesn't load the
iptables/ip6tables modules anymore when iptables-nft is used

- Extended netlink error report for netdevice in flowtables and
netdev/chains. Allow for incrementally add/delete devices to netdev
basechain. Allow to create netdev chain without device

Driver API:

- Remove redundant Device Control Error Reporting Enable, as PCI core
has already error reporting enabled at enumeration time

- Move Multicast DB netlink handlers to core, allowing devices other
then bridge to use them

- Allow the page_pool to directly recycle the pages from safely
localized NAPI

- Implement lockless TX queue stop/wake combo macros, allowing for
further code de-duplication and sanitization

- Add YNL support for user headers and struct attrs

- Add partial YNL specification for devlink

- Add partial YNL specification for ethtool

- Add tc-mqprio and tc-taprio support for preemptible traffic classes

- Add tx push buf len param to ethtool, specifies the maximum number
of bytes of a transmitted packet a driver can push directly to the
underlying device

- Add basic LED support for switch/phy

- Add NAPI documentation, stop relaying on external links

- Convert dsa_master_ioctl() to netdev notifier. This is a
preparatory work to make the hardware timestamping layer selectable
by user space

- Add transceiver support and improve the error messages for CAN-FD
controllers

wifi: ath12k: add qmi_cnss_feature_bitmap field to hardware parameters

Currently the CNSS (Connectivity Subsystem) QMI feature is assigned to
qmi_wlanfw_host_cap_req_msg_v01 request directly, this prevents chip-specific
CNSS features from being added easily.

Solve this by adding a new field qmi_cnss_feature_bitmap to hw_params so
chip-specific CNSS features can be assigned to this field and later assigned to
qmi_wlanfw_host_cap_req_msg_v01 request.
