Merge tag 'net-next-6.12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
"The zero-copy changes are relatively significant, but regression risk
should be contained. The feature needs to be used to cause trouble.

Also it feels like we got an order of magnitude more semi-automated
"refactoring" chaff than usual, I wonder if it's just us.

Core & protocols:

- Support Device Memory TCP, ability to zero-copy receive TCP
payloads to a DMABUF region of memory while packet headers land
separately in normal kernel buffers, and TCP processes then as
usual.

- The ability to read the PTP PHC (Physical Hardware Clock) alongside
MONOTONIC_RAW timestamps with PTP_SYS_OFFSET_EXTENDED. Previously
only CLOCK_REALTIME was supported.

- Allow matching on all bits of IP DSCP for routing decisions.
Previously we only supported on matching TOS bits in IPv4 which is
a narrower interpretation of the same header field.

- Increase the range of weights used for multi-path routing from
8 bits to 16 bits.

- Add support for IPv6 PIO p flag in the Prefix Information Option
per draft-ietf-6man-pio-pflag.

- IPv6 IOAM6 support for new tunsrc encap mode for better
performance.

- Detect destinations which blackhole MPTCP traffic and avoid
initiating MPTCP connections to them for a certain period of time,
1h by default.

- Improve IPsec control path performance by removing the inexact
policies list.

- AF_VSOCK: add support for SIOCOUTQ ioctl.

- Add enum for reasons TCP reset was sent for easier tracing.

- Add SMC ringbufs usage statistics.

Drivers:

- Handle netconsole setup failures more gracefully, don't fail
loading, retain the specified target as disabled.

- Extend bonding's IPsec offload pass thru capabilities (ESN, stats).

Filtering:

- Add TCP_BPF_SOCK_OPS_CB_FLAGS to bpf_*sockopt() to address the case
when long-lived sockets miss a chance to set additional callbacks
if a sockops program was not attached early in their lifetime.

- Support using BPF skb helpers in tracepoints.

- Conntrack Netlink: support CTA_FILTER for flush.

- Improve SCTP support in nfnetlink_queue.

- Improve performance of large nftables flush transactions.

Things we sprinkled into general kernel code:

- selftests: support setting an "interpreter" for script files; make
it easy to run as separate cases tests where one "interpreter" is
fed various test descriptions (in our case packet sequences).

Driver API:

- Extend core and ethtool APIs to support many PHYs connected to a
single interface (PHY topologies).

- Extend cable diagnostics to specify whether Time Domain
Reflectometry (TDR) or Active Link Cable Diagnostic (ALCD) was
used.

- Add library for implementing MAC-PHY Ethernet drivers for SPI
devices compatible with Open Alliance 10BASE-T1x MAC-PHY Serial
Interface (TC6) standard.

- Add helpers to the PHY framework, for PHYs following the Open
Alliance standards:
- 1000BaseT1 link settings
- cable test and diagnostics

- Support listing / dumping all allocated RSS contexts.

- Add configuration for frequency Embedded SYNC in DPLL, which
magically embeds sync pulses into Ethernet signaling.

tx bitrate: 866.7 MBit/s VHT-MCS 9 80MHz short GI VHT-NSS 2
rx bitrate: 86.7 MBit/s VHT-MCS 9 VHT-NSS 1

This is because the RX band width is calculated incorrectly. Fix the
calculation according to the phydm_rxsc_2_bw() function from the
official drivers.

After:

tx bitrate: 866.7 MBit/s VHT-MCS 9 80MHz short GI VHT-NSS 2
rx bitrate: 390.0 MBit/s VHT-MCS 9 80MHz VHT-NSS 1

It also works correctly with the AP configured for 20 MHz and 40 MHz.

wifi: rtw88: usb: Support USB 3 with RTL8822CU/RTL8822BU

The Realtek wifi 5 devices which support USB 3 are weird: when first
plugged in, they pretend to be USB 2. The driver needs to send some
commands to the device, which make it disappear and come back as a
USB 3 device.

Implement the required commands in rtw88.

When a USB 3 device is plugged into a USB 2 port, rtw88 will try to
switch it to USB 3 mode only once. The device will disappear and come
back still in USB 2 mode, of course.

Some people experience heavy interference in the 2.4 GHz band in
USB 3 mode, so add a module parameter switch_usb_mode with the
default value 1 to let people disable the switching.

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)

wifi: rtw88: usb: Further limit the TX aggregation

Currently the number of frames sent to the chip in a single USB Request
Block is limited only by the size of the TX buffer, which is 20 KiB.
Testing reveals that as many as 13 frames get aggregated. This is more
than what any of the chips would like to receive. RTL8822CU, RTL8822BU,
and RTL8821CU want at most 3 frames, and RTL8723DU wants only 1 frame
per URB.

RTL8723DU in particular reliably malfunctions during a speed test if it
receives more than 1 frame per URB. All traffic seems to stop. Pinging
the AP no longer works.

Fix this problem by limiting the number of frames sent to the chip in a
single URB according to what each chip likes.

Also configure RTL8822CU, RTL8822BU, and RTL8821CU to expect 3 frames
per URB.

RTL8703B may or may not be found in USB devices. Declare that it wants
only 1 frame per URB, just in case.

Tested with RTL8723DU and RTL8811CU.

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
