probes, which is significantly faster and saves extra fds

- Implement an fd-based tc BPF attach API (TCX) and BPF link support
on top of it

- Add SO_REUSEPORT support for TC bpf_sk_assign

- Support new instructions from cpu v4 to simplify the generated code
and feature completeness, for x86, arm64, riscv64

wifi: rtw89: phy: modify register setting of ENV_MNTR, PHYSTS and DIG

The ENV_MNTR(environment monitor) is the dynamic mechanism which based on
the HW of CCX(Cisco Compatible Extensions) which provide the channel
loading and noisy level indicator to debug or support the 802.11k. The
PHYSTS provide the detail PHY information per packet we received for
debugging. The DIG(dynamic initial gain) is the dynamic mechanism to
adjust the packet detect power level by received signal strength to avoid
false detection of the WiFi packet.

The address of registers used for ENV_MNTR, PHYSTS and DIG of WiFi 7 IC
are different with WiFi 6 series, so we modify the method to access the
register address in order to compatible with all WiFi 7 and 6 ICs.

wifi: rtw89: phy: add phy_gen_def::cr_base to support WiFi 7 chips

cr_base is base address of PHY control register. The base of WiFi 6 and 7
chips are 0x1_0000 and 0x2_0000 respectively, so define them accordingly.
For example, if PHY address is 0x1330, absolute address is 0x1_1330 for
WiFi 6 chips, and 0x2_1330 for WiFi 7 chips.

Meanwhile, there are two copies of PHY hardware named PHY0 and PHY1. The
offset between them is 0x2_0000, so the base address of PHY0 and PHY1 are
0x2_0000 and 0x4_0000 respectively.

wifi: rtw89: mac: add mac_gen_def::band1_offset to map MAC band1 register address

There are two copies of MAC hardware called band0 and band1. Basically,
the only difference between them is base address, so we can share functions
with a 'band' (or 'mac_idx') argument.

The offset of base address of WiFi 6 and 7 are 0x2000 and 0x4000
respectively, so add band1_offset field to new introduced struct
mac_gen_def to possibly reuse functions.

We use tables defined in firmware elements with higher priority than
original static const tables defined in driver, because WiFi 7 chips will
not define the tables in driver, and existing chips can possibly migrate to
the new design one by one.

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
