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:
- mptcp: use net/lib.sh to manage netns
- TCP-AO and TCP-MD5: replace debug prints used by tests with tracepoints
- openvswitch: make test self-contained (don't depend on OvS CLI tools)
Drivers:
- Ethernet high-speed NICs: - Broadcom (bnxt): - increase the max total outstanding PTP TX packets to 4 - add timestamping statistics support - implement netdev_queue_mgmt_ops - support new RSS context API - Intel (100G, ice, idpf): - implement FEC statistics and dumping signal quality indicators - support E825C products (with 56Gbps PHYs) - nVidia/Mellanox: - support HW-GRO - mlx4/mlx5: support per-queue statistics via netlink - obey the max number of EQs setting in sub-functions - AMD/Solarflare: - support new RSS context API - AMD/Pensando: - ionic: rework fix for doorbell miss to lower overhead and skip it on new HW - Wangxun: - txgbe: support Flow Director perfect filters

Merge tag 'net-next-6.8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next
Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni: "The most interesting thing is probably the networking structs reorganization and a significant amount of changes is around self-tests.
Core & protocols:
- Analyze and reorganize core networking structs (socks, netdev, netns, mibs) to optimize cacheline consumption and set up build time warnings to safeguard against future header changes
This improves TCP performances with many concurrent connections up to 40%
- Add page-pool netlink-based introspection, exposing the memory usage and recycling stats. This helps indentify bad PP users and possible leaks
- Refine TCP/DCCP source port selection to no longer favor even source port at connect() time when IP_LOCAL_PORT_RANGE is set. This lowers the time taken by connect() for hosts having many active connections to the same destination
- Refactor the TCP bind conflict code, shrinking related socket structs
- Refactor TCP SYN-Cookie handling, as a preparation step to allow arbitrary SYN-Cookie processing via eBPF
- Tune optmem_max for 0-copy usage, increasing the default value to 128KB and namespecifying it
- Allow coalescing for cloned skbs coming from page pools, improving RX performances with some common configurations
- Reduce extension header parsing overhead at GRO time
- Add bridge MDB bulk deletion support, allowing user-space to request the deletion of matching entries
- Reorder nftables struct members, to keep data accessed by the datapath first
- Introduce TC block ports tracking and use. This allows supporting multicast-like behavior at the TC layer
- Remove UAPI support for retired TC qdiscs (dsmark, CBQ and ATM) and classifiers (RSVP and tcindex)
- More data-race annotations
- Extend the diag interface to dump TCP bound-only sockets
- Conditional notification of events for TC qdisc class and actions
- Support for WPAN dynamic associations with nearby devices, to form a sub-network using a specific PAN ID
- Implement SMCv2.1 virtual ISM device support
- Add support for Batman-avd mulicast packet type
BPF:
- Tons of verifier improvements: - BPF register bounds logic and range support along with a large test suite - log improvements - complete precision tracking support for register spills - track aligned STACK_ZERO cases as imprecise spilled registers. This improves the verifier "instructions processed" metric from single digit to 50-60% for some programs - support for user's global BPF subprogram arguments with few commonly requested annotations for a better developer experience - support tracking of BPF_JNE which helps cases when the compiler transforms (unsigned) "a > 0" into "if a == 0 goto xxx" and the like - several fixes
- Add initial TX metadata implementation for AF_XDP with support in mlx5 and stmmac drivers. Two types of offloads are supported right now, that is, TX timestamp and TX checksum offload
- Fix kCFI bugs in BPF all forms of indirect calls from BPF into kernel and from kernel into BPF work with CFI enabled. This allows BPF to work with CONFIG_FINEIBT=y
- Change BPF verifier logic to validate global subprograms lazily instead of unconditionally before the main program, so they can be guarded using BPF CO-RE techniques
- Support uid/gid options when mounting bpffs
- Add a new kfunc which acquires the associated cgroup of a task within a specific cgroup v1 hierarchy where the latter is identified by its id
- Extend verifier to allow bpf_refcount_acquire() of a map value field obtained via direct load which is a use-case needed in sched_ext
- Add BPF link_info support for uprobe multi link along with bpftool integration for the latter
- Support for VLAN tag in XDP hints
- Remove deprecated bpfilter kernel leftovers given the project is developed in user-space (https://github.com/facebook/bpfilter)
Misc:
- Support for parellel TC self-tests execution
- Increase MPTCP self-tests coverage
- Updated the bridge documentation, including several so-far undocumented features
- Convert all the net self-tests to run in unique netns, to avoid random failures due to conflict and allow concurrent runs
- Add TCP-AO self-tests
- Add kunit tests for both cfg80211 and mac80211
- Autogenerate Netlink families documentation from YAML spec
- Add yml-gen support for fixed headers and recursive nests, the tool can now generate user-space code for all genetlink families for which we have specs
- A bunch of additional module descriptions fixes
- Catch incorrect freeing of pages belonging to a page pool
Driver API:
- Rust abstractions for network PHY drivers; do not cover yet the full C API, but already allow implementing functional PHY drivers in rust
- Introduce queue and NAPI support in the netdev Netlink interface, allowing complete access to the device <> NAPIs <> queues relationship
- Introduce notifications filtering for devlink to allow control application scale to thousands of instances
- Improve PHY validation, requesting rate matching information for each ethtool link mode supported by both the PHY and host
- Add support for ethtool symmetric-xor RSS hash
- ACPI based Wifi band RFI (WBRF) mitigation feature for the AMD platform
- Expose pin fractional frequency offset value over new DPLL generic netlink attribute
- Convert older drivers to platform remove callback returning void
- Add support for PHY package MMD read/write
New hardware / drivers:
- Ethernet: - Octeon CN10K devices - Broadcom 5760X P7 - Qualcomm SM8550 SoC - Texas Instrument DP83TG720S PHY
- Bluetooth: - IMC Networks Bluetooth radio
Removed:
