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

wifi: iwlwifi: pcie: integrate TX queue code
The TX queue code was mostly moved out to support an internal transport that we were never going to publish, but we're no longer using that. Since we're also going to be dissolving the virtual transport layer entirely, integrate the TX queue code into the PCIe layer.
This also has a small kernel of already removing the virtual transport function layer, since iwl_trans_send_cmd() calls iwl_trans_pcie_send_hcmd() directly now, even if that still calls the transport send_cmd method for now, we'll clean it up later.
Also, not everything is renamed yet.

Merge tag 'net-next-6.9' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next
Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski: "Core & protocols:
- Large effort by Eric to lower rtnl_lock pressure and remove locks:
- Make commonly used parts of rtnetlink (address, route dumps etc) lockless, protected by RCU instead of rtnl_lock.
- Add a netns exit callback which already holds rtnl_lock, allowing netns exit to take rtnl_lock once in the core instead of once for each driver / callback.
- Remove locks / serialization in the socket diag interface.
- Remove 6 calls to synchronize_rcu() while holding rtnl_lock.
- Remove the dev_base_lock, depend on RCU where necessary.
- Support busy polling on a per-epoll context basis. Poll length and budget parameters can be set independently of system defaults.
- Introduce struct net_hotdata, to make sure read-mostly global config variables fit in as few cache lines as possible.
- Add optional per-nexthop statistics to ease monitoring / debug of ECMP imbalance problems.
- Support TCP_NOTSENT_LOWAT in MPTCP.
- Ensure that IPv6 temporary addresses' preferred lifetimes are long enough, compared to other configured lifetimes, and at least 2 sec.
- Support forwarding of ICMP Error messages in IPSec, per RFC 4301.
- Add support for the independent control state machine for bonding per IEEE 802.1AX-2008 5.4.15 in addition to the existing coupled control state machine.
- Add "network ID" to MCTP socket APIs to support hosts with multiple disjoint MCTP networks.
- Re-use the mono_delivery_time skbuff bit for packets which user space wants to be sent at a specified time. Maintain the timing information while traversing veth links, bridge etc.
- Take advantage of MSG_SPLICE_PAGES for RxRPC DATA and ACK packets.
- Simplify many places iterating over netdevs by using an xarray instead of a hash table walk (hash table remains in place, for use on fastpaths).
- Speed up scanning for expired routes by keeping a dedicated list.
- Speed up "generic" XDP by trying harder to avoid large allocations.
- Support attaching arbitrary metadata to netconsole messages.
Things we sprinkled into general kernel code:
- Enforce VM_IOREMAP flag and range in ioremap_page_range and introduce VM_SPARSE kind and vm_area_[un]map_pages (used by bpf_arena).
- Rework selftest harness to enable the use of the full range of ksft exit code (pass, fail, skip, xfail, xpass).
Netfilter:
- Allow userspace to define a table that is exclusively owned by a daemon (via netlink socket aliveness) without auto-removing this table when the userspace program exits. Such table gets marked as orphaned and a restarting management daemon can re-attach/regain ownership.
- Speed up element insertions to nftables' concatenated-ranges set type. Compact a few related data structures.
BPF:
- Add BPF token support for delegating a subset of BPF subsystem functionality from privileged system-wide daemons such as systemd through special mount options for userns-bound BPF fs to a trusted & unprivileged application.
- Introduce bpf_arena which is sparse shared memory region between BPF program and user space where structures inside the arena can have pointers to other areas of the arena, and pointers work seamlessly for both user-space programs and BPF programs.
- Introduce may_goto instruction that is a contract between the verifier and the program. The verifier allows the program to loop assuming it's behaving well, but reserves the right to terminate it.
- Extend the BPF verifier to enable static subprog calls in spin lock critical sections.
- Support registration of struct_ops types from modules which helps projects like fuse-bpf that seeks to implement a new struct_ops type.
- Add support for retrieval of cookies for perf/kprobe multi links.
- Support arbitrary TCP SYN cookie generation / validation in the TC layer with BPF to allow creating SYN flood handling in BPF firewalls.
- Add code generation to inline the bpf_kptr_xchg() helper which improves performance when stashing/popping the allocated BPF objects.
Wireless:
- Add SPP (signaling and payload protected) AMSDU support.
- Support wider bandwidth OFDMA, as required for EHT operation.
Driver API:
- Major overhaul of the Energy Efficient Ethernet internals to support new link modes (2.5GE, 5GE), share more code between drivers (especially those using phylib), and encourage more uniform behavior. Convert and clean up drivers.
- Define an API for querying per netdev queue statistics from drivers.
- IPSec: account in global stats for fully offloaded sessions.
- Create a concept of Ethernet PHY Packages at the Device Tree level, to allow parameterizing the existing PHY package code.
- Enable Rx hashing (RSS) on GTP protocol fields.
Misc:
- Improvements and refactoring all over networking selftests.
- Create uniform module aliases for TC classifiers, actions, and packet schedulers to simplify creating modprobe policies.
- Address all missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() warnings in networking.
- Extend the Netlink descriptions in YAML to cover message encapsulation or "Netlink polymorphism", where interpretation of nested attributes depends on link type, classifier type or some other "class type".
Drivers:
- Ethernet high-speed NICs: - Add a new driver for Marvell's Octeon PCI Endpoint NIC VF. - Intel (100G, ice, idpf): - support E825-C devices - nVidia/Mellanox: - support devices with one port and multiple PCIe links - Broadcom (bnxt): - support n-tuple filters - support configuring the RSS key - Wangxun (ngbe/txgbe): - implement irq_domain for TXGBE's sub-interrupts - Pensando/AMD: - support XDP - optimize queue submission and wakeup handling (+17% bps) - optimize struct layout, saving 28% of memory on queues
- Ethernet NICs embedded and virtual: - Google cloud vNIC: - refactor driver to perform memory allocations for new queue config before stopping and freeing the old queue memory - Synopsys (stmmac): - obey queueMaxSDU and implement counters required by 802.1Qbv - Renesas (ravb): - support packet checksum offload - suspend to RAM and runtime PM support
- Ethernet switches: - nVidia/Mellanox: - support for nexthop group statistics - Microchip: - ksz8: implement PHY loopback - add support for KSZ8567, a 7-port 10/100Mbps switch
- PTP: - New driver for RENESAS FemtoClock3 Wireless clock generator. - Support OCP PTP cards designed and built by Adva.
- CAN: - Support recvmsg() flags for own, local and remote traffic on CAN BCM sockets. - Support for esd GmbH PCIe/402 CAN device family. - m_can: - Rx/Tx submission coalescing - wake on frame Rx
- WiFi: - Intel (iwlwifi): - enable signaling and payload protected A-MSDUs - support wider-bandwidth OFDMA - support for new devices - bump FW API to 89 for AX devices; 90 for BZ/SC devices - MediaTek (mt76): - mt7915: newer ADIE version support - mt7925: radio temperature sensor support - Qualcomm (ath11k): - support 6 GHz station power modes: Low Power Indoor (LPI), Standard Power) SP and Very Low Power (VLP) - QCA6390 & WCN6855: support 2 concurrent station interfaces - QCA2066 support - Qualcomm (ath12k): - refactoring in preparation for Multi-Link Operation (MLO) support - 1024 Block Ack window size support - firmware-2.bin support - support having multiple identical PCI devices (firmware needs to have ATH12K_FW_FEATURE_MULTI_QRTR_ID) - QCN9274: support split-PHY devices - WCN7850: enable Power Save Mode in station mode - WCN7850: P2P support - RealTek: - rtw88: support for more rtw8811cu and rtw8821cu devices - rtw89: support SCAN_RANDOM_SN and SET_SCAN_DWELL - rtlwifi: speed up USB firmware initialization - rtwl8xxxu: - RTL8188F: concurrent interface support - Channel Switch Announcement (CSA) support in AP mode - Broadcom (brcmfmac): - per-vendor feature support - per-vendor SAE password setup - DMI nvram filename quirk for ACEPC W5 Pro"

Kalle Valo says:
==================== wireless-next patches for v6.9
The second "new features" pull request for v6.9. Lots of iwlwifi and stack changes this time. And naturally smaller changes to other drivers.
We also twice merged wireless into wireless-next to avoid conflicts between the trees.
Major changes:
stack
* mac80211: negotiated TTLM request support
* SPP A-MSDU support
* mac80211: wider bandwidth OFDMA config support
iwlwifi
* kunit tests
* bump FW API to 89 for AX/BZ/SC devices
* enable SPP A-MSDUs
* support for new devices
ath12k
* refactoring in preparation for Multi-Link Operation (MLO) support
* 1024 Block Ack window size support
* provide firmware wmi logs via a trace event
ath11k
* 36 bit DMA mask support
* support 6 GHz station power modes: Low Power Indoor (LPI), Standard Power) SP and Very Low Power (VLP)
rtl8xxxu
* TP-Link TL-WN823N V2 support ====================

wifi: iwlwifi: prepare for reading SAR tables from UEFI
The driver will support reading BIOS tables from UEFI too. Refactor the SAR tables (WRDS, EWRD, WGDS) flows:
1. Move all the SAR logic/definitions that is common to both UEFI and ACPI to a new file - regulatory.h/c. 2. Rename the relevant functions/definitions so it will be clear which is ACPI specific and which is for both ACPI and UEFI 3. Rename the function that copies the stored tables into the different commands structures, so will be clear what these functions do.
