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.

- Ethernet switches: - Microchip (kzZ88x3): add ETS scheduler support
- Ethernet PHYs: - RealTek (rtl8211): - add support for WoL magic packet - add support for PHY LEDs
- CAN: - Adds RZ/G3E CANFD support to the rcar_canfd driver. - Preparatory work for CAN-XL support. - Add self-tests framework with support for CAN physical interfaces.
- WiFi: - mac80211: - scan improvements with multi-link operation (MLO) - Qualcomm (ath12k): - enable AHB support for IPQ5332 - add monitor interface support to QCN9274 - add multi-link operation support to WCN7850 - add 802.11d scan offload support to WCN7850 - monitor mode for WCN7850, better 6 GHz regulatory - Qualcomm (ath11k): - restore hibernation support - MediaTek (mt76): - WiFi-7 improvements - implement support for mt7990 - Intel (iwlwifi): - enhanced multi-link single-radio (EMLSR) support on 5 GHz links - rework device configuration - RealTek (rtw88): - improve throughput for RTL8814AU - RealTek (rtw89): - add multi-link operation support - STA/P2P concurrency improvements - support different SAR configs by antenna
- Bluetooth: - introduce HCI Driver protocol - btintel_pcie: do not generate coredump for diagnostic events - btusb: add HCI Drv commands for configuring altsetting - btusb: add RTL8851BE device 0x0bda:0xb850 - btusb: add new VID/PID 13d3/3584 for MT7922 - btusb: add new VID/PID 13d3/3630 and 13d3/3613 for MT7925 - btnxpuart: implement host-wakeup feature"

Merge tag 'net-next-6.10' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next
Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski: "Core & protocols:
- Complete rework of garbage collection of AF_UNIX sockets.
AF_UNIX is prone to forming reference count cycles due to fd passing functionality. New method based on Tarjan's Strongly Connected Components algorithm should be both faster and remove a lot of workarounds we accumulated over the years.
- Add TCP fraglist GRO support, allowing chaining multiple TCP packets and forwarding them together. Useful for small switches / routers which lack basic checksum offload in some scenarios (e.g. PPPoE).
- Support using SMP threads for handling packet backlog i.e. packet processing from software interfaces and old drivers which don't use NAPI. This helps move the processing out of the softirq jumble.
- Continue work of converting from rtnl lock to RCU protection.
Don't require rtnl lock when reading: IPv6 routing FIB, IPv6 address labels, netdev threaded NAPI sysfs files, bonding driver's sysfs files, MPLS devconf, IPv4 FIB rules, netns IDs, tcp metrics, TC Qdiscs, neighbor entries, ARP entries via ioctl(SIOCGARP), a lot of the link information available via rtnetlink.
- Small optimizations from Eric to UDP wake up handling, memory accounting, RPS/RFS implementation, TCP packet sizing etc.
- Allow direct page recycling in the bulk API used by XDP, for +2% PPS.
- Support peek with an offset on TCP sockets.
- Add MPTCP APIs for querying last time packets were received/sent/acked and whether MPTCP "upgrade" succeeded on a TCP socket.
- Add intra-node communication shortcut to improve SMC performance.
- Add IPv6 (and IPv{4,6}-over-IPv{4,6}) support to the GTP protocol driver.
- Add HSR-SAN (RedBOX) mode of operation to the HSR protocol driver.
- Add reset reasons for tracing what caused a TCP reset to be sent.
- Introduce direction attribute for xfrm (IPSec) states. State can be used either for input or output packet processing.
Things we sprinkled into general kernel code:
- Add bitmap_{read,write}(), bitmap_size(), expose BYTES_TO_BITS().
This required touch-ups and renaming of a few existing users.
- Add Endian-dependent __counted_by_{le,be} annotations.
- Make building selftests "quieter" by printing summaries like "CC object.o" rather than full commands with all the arguments.
Netfilter:
- Use GFP_KERNEL to clone elements, to deal better with OOM situations and avoid failures in the .commit step.
BPF:
- Add eBPF JIT for ARCv2 CPUs.
- Support attaching kprobe BPF programs through kprobe_multi link in a session mode, meaning, a BPF program is attached to both function entry and return, the entry program can decide if the return program gets executed and the entry program can share u64 cookie value with return program. "Session mode" is a common use-case for tetragon and bpftrace.
- Add the ability to specify and retrieve BPF cookie for raw tracepoint programs in order to ease migration from classic to raw tracepoints.
- Add an internal-only BPF per-CPU instruction for resolving per-CPU memory addresses and implement support in x86, ARM64 and RISC-V JITs. This allows inlining functions which need to access per-CPU state.
- Optimize x86 BPF JIT's emit_mov_imm64, and add support for various atomics in bpf_arena which can be JITed as a single x86 instruction. Support BPF arena on ARM64.
- Add a new bpf_wq API for deferring events and refactor process-context bpf_timer code to keep common code where possible.
- Harden the BPF verifier's and/or/xor value tracking.
- Introduce crypto kfuncs to let BPF programs call kernel crypto APIs.
- Support bpf_tail_call_static() helper for BPF programs with GCC 13.
- Add bpf_preempt_{disable,enable}() kfuncs in order to allow a BPF program to have code sections where preemption is disabled.
Driver API:
- Skip software TC processing completely if all installed rules are marked as HW-only, instead of checking the HW-only flag rule by rule.
- Add support for configuring PoE (Power over Ethernet), similar to the already existing support for PoDL (Power over Data Line) config.
- Initial bits of a queue control API, for now allowing a single queue to be reset without disturbing packet flow to other queues.
- Common (ethtool) statistics for hardware timestamping.
Tests and tooling:
- Remove the need to create a config file to run the net forwarding tests so that a naive "make run_tests" can exercise them.
- Define a method of writing tests which require an external endpoint to communicate with (to send/receive data towards the test machine). Add a few such tests.
- Create a shared code library for writing Python tests. Expose the YAML Netlink library from tools/ to the tests for easy Netlink access.
- Move netfilter tests under net/, extend them, separate performance tests from correctness tests, and iron out issues found by running them "on every commit".
- Refactor BPF selftests to use common network helpers.
- Further work filling in YAML definitions of Netlink messages for: nftables, team driver, bonding interfaces, vlan interfaces, VF info, TC u32 mark, TC police action.
- Teach Python YAML Netlink to decode attribute policies.
- Extend the definition of the "indexed array" construct in the specs to cover arrays of scalars rather than just nests.
- Add hyperlinks between definitions in generated Netlink docs.
Drivers:
- Make sure unsupported flower control flags are rejected by drivers, and make more drivers report errors directly to the application rather than dmesg (large number of driver changes from Asbjørn Sloth Tønnesen).
- Ethernet high-speed NICs: - Broadcom (bnxt): - support multiple RSS contexts and steering traffic to them - support XDP metadata - make page pool allocations more NUMA aware - Intel (100G, ice, idpf): - extract datapath code common among Intel drivers into a library - use fewer resources in switchdev by sharing queues with the PF - add PFCP filter support - add Ethernet filter support - use a spinlock instead of HW lock in PTP clock ops - support 5 layer Tx scheduler topology - nVidia/Mellanox: - 800G link modes and 100G SerDes speeds - per-queue IRQ coalescing configuration - Marvell Octeon: - support offloading TC packet mark action
- Ethernet NICs consumer, embedded and virtual: - stop lying about skb->truesize in USB Ethernet drivers, it messes up TCP memory calculations - Google cloud vNIC: - support changing ring size via ethtool - support ring reset using the queue control API - VirtIO net: - expose flow hash from RSS to XDP - per-queue statistics - add selftests - Synopsys (stmmac): - support controllers which require an RX clock signal from the MII bus to perform their hardware initialization - TI: - icssg_prueth: support ICSSG-based Ethernet on AM65x SR1.0 devices - icssg_prueth: add SW TX / RX Coalescing based on hrtimers - cpsw: minimal XDP support - Renesas (ravb): - support describing the MDIO bus - Realtek (r8169): - add support for RTL8168M - Microchip Sparx5: - matchall and flower actions mirred and redirect

==================== wireless-next patches for v6.10
The third, and most likely the last, "new features" pull request for v6.10 with changes both in stack and in drivers. In ath12k and rtw89 we disabled Wireless Extensions just like with iwlwifi earlier. Wi-Fi 7 devices will not support Wireless Extensions (WEXT) anymore so if someone is still using the legacy WEXT interface it's time to switch to nl80211 now!
We merged wireless into wireless-next as we decided not to send a wireless pull request to v6.9 this late in the cycle. Also an immutable branch with MHI subsystem was merged to get ath11k and ath12k hibernation working.
Major changes:
mac80211/cfg80211 * handle color change per link
mt76 * mt7921 LED control * mt7925 EHT radiotap support * mt7920e PCI support
ath12k * debugfs support * dfs_simulate_radar debugfs file * disable Wireless Extensions * suspend and hibernation support * ACPI support * refactoring in preparation of multi-link support
ath11k * support hibernation (required changes in qrtr and MHI subsystems) * ieee80211-freq-limit Device Tree property support
ath10k * firmware-name Device Tree property support
rtw89 * complete features of new WiFi 7 chip 8922AE including BT-coexistence and WoWLAN * use BIOS ACPI settings to set TX power and channels * disable Wireless Extensios on Wi-Fi 7 devices
iwlwifi * block_esr debugfs file * support again firmware API 90 (was reverted earlier) * provide channel survey information for Automatic Channel Selection (ACS)

wifi: iwlwifi: mvm: record and return channel survey information
While doing a passive scan, the firmware will report per-channel survey information. This information is primarily useful for hostapd when doing an ACS (Automatic Channel Selection). Collect this information and add it to the result set when getting the survey information.

==================== wireless-next patches for v6.10
The second "new features" pull request for v6.10 with changes both in stack and in drivers. This time the pull request is rather small and nothing special standing out except maybe that we have several kernel-doc fixes. Great to see that we are getting warning free wireless code (until new warnings are added).
Major changes:
rtl8xxxu: * enable Management Frame Protection (MFP) support
rtw88: * disable unsupported interface type of mesh point for all chips, and only support station mode for SDIO chips.

wifi: iwlwifi: mvm: implement link grading
For selecting what link(s) out of the usable ones to activate, calculate a grade for a given link.
Calculation of a link grade is done as follows: 1. get the estimated throughput according to the RSSI of the link, this will be the base grade 2. get the channel load from the BSS Load Element, subtracting the load caused by us. Apply the factor on the grade. 3. puncturing factor: calculate the percentage of the punctured subchannels (out of the total subchannels). Apply this on the grade.
The link grading will be used by the link selection mechanism in a later patch.
Also add KUnit tests for it.
