Merge tag 'net-next-6.7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
"Core & protocols:

- Support usec resolution of TCP timestamps, enabled selectively by a
route attribute.

- Defer regular TCP ACK while processing socket backlog, try to send
a cumulative ACK at the end. Increase single TCP flow performance
on a 200Gbit NIC by 20% (100Gbit -> 120Gbit).

- The Fair Queuing (FQ) packet scheduler:
- add built-in 3 band prio / WRR scheduling
- support bypass if the qdisc is mostly idle (5% speed up for TCP RR)
- improve inactive flow reporting
- optimize the layout of structures for better cache locality

- Support TCP Authentication Option (RFC 5925, TCP-AO), a more modern
replacement for the old MD5 option.

- Add more retransmission timeout (RTO) related statistics to
TCP_INFO.

- Support sending fragmented skbs over vsock sockets.

- Make sure we send SIGPIPE for vsock sockets if socket was
shutdown().

- Add sysctl for ignoring lower limit on lifetime in Router
Advertisement PIO, based on an in-progress IETF draft.

- Add sysctl to control activation of TCP ping-pong mode.

- Add sysctl to make connection timeout in MPTCP configurable.

- Support rcvlowat and notsent_lowat on MPTCP sockets, to help apps
limit the number of wakeups.

- Support netlink GET for MDB (multicast forwarding), allowing user
space to request a single MDB entry instead of dumping the entire
table.

- Support selective FDB flushing in the VXLAN tunnel driver.

- Allow limiting learned FDB entries in bridges, prevent OOM attacks.

- Allow controlling via configfs netconsole targets which were
created via the kernel cmdline at boot, rather than via configfs at
runtime.

- Support multiple PTP timestamp event queue readers with different
filters.

- MCTP over I3C.

BPF:

- Add new veth-like netdevice where BPF program defines the logic of
the xmit routine. It can operate in L3 and L2 mode.

- Support exceptions - allow asserting conditions which should never
be true but are hard for the verifier to infer. With some extra
flexibility around handling of the exit / failure:

https://lwn.net/Articles/938435/

- Add support for local per-cpu kptr, allow allocating and storing
per-cpu objects in maps. Access to those objects operates on the
value for the current CPU.

This allows to deprecate local one-off implementations of per-CPU
storage like BPF_MAP_TYPE_PERCPU_CGROUP_STORAGE maps.

- Extend cgroup BPF sockaddr hooks for UNIX sockets. The use case is
for systemd to re-implement the LogNamespace feature which allows
running multiple instances of systemd-journald to process the logs
of different services.

- Enable open-coded task_vma iteration, after maple tree conversion
made it hard to directly walk VMAs in tracing programs.

- Add open-coded task, css_task and css iterator support. One of the
use cases is customizable OOM victim selection via BPF.

- Allow source address selection with bpf_*_fib_lookup().

- Add ability to pin BPF timer to the current CPU.

- Prevent creation of infinite loops by combining tail calls and
fentry/fexit programs.

- Add missed stats for kprobes to retrieve the number of missed
kprobe executions and subsequent executions of BPF programs.

- Inherit system settings for CPU security mitigations.

- Add BPF v4 CPU instruction support for arm32 and s390x.

Changes to common code:

- overflow: add DEFINE_FLEX() for on-stack definition of structs with
flexible array members.

- Process doc update with more guidance for reviewers.

Driver API:

- Simplify locking in WiFi (cfg80211 and mac80211 layers), use wiphy
mutex in most places and remove a lot of smaller locks.

- Create a common DPLL configuration API. Allow configuring and
querying state of PLL circuits used for clock syntonization, in
network time distribution.

- Unify fragmented and full page allocation APIs in page pool code.
Let drivers be ignorant of PAGE_SIZE.

- Rework PHY state machine to avoid races with calls to phy_stop().

- Notify DSA drivers of MAC address changes on user ports, improve
correctness of offloads which depend on matching port MAC
addresses.

- Allow antenna control on injected WiFi frames.

- Reduce the number of variants of napi_schedule().

- Simplify error handling when composing devlink health messages.

Misc:

- A lot of KCSAN data race "fixes", from Eric.

- A lot of __counted_by() annotations, from Kees.

- A lot of strncpy -> strscpy and printf format fixes.

- Replace master/slave terminology with conduit/user in DSA drivers.

- Handful of KUnit tests for netdev and WiFi core.

====================
wireless-next patches for v6.7

The first pull request for v6.7, with both stack and driver changes.
We have a big change how locking is handled in cfg80211 and mac80211
which removes several locks and hopefully simplifies the locking
overall. In drivers rtw89 got MCC support and smaller features to
other active drivers but nothing out of ordinary.

Major changes:

cfg80211
- remove wdev mutex, use the wiphy mutex instead
- annotate iftype_data pointer with sparse
- first kunit tests, for element defrag
- remove unused scan_width support

mac80211
- major locking rework, remove several locks like sta_mtx, key_mtx
etc. and use the wiphy mutex instead
- remove unused shifted rate support
- support antenna control in frame injection (requires driver support)
- convert RX_DROP_UNUSABLE to more detailed reason codes

rtw89
- TDMA-based multi-channel concurrency (MCC) support

iwlwifi
- support set_antenna() operation
- support frame injection antenna control

ath12k
- WCN7850: enable 320 MHz channels in 6 GHz band
- WCN7850: hardware rfkill support
- WCN7850: enable IEEE80211_HW_SINGLE_SCAN_ON_ALL_BANDS to make scan faster

ath11k
- add chip id board name while searching board-2.bin

wifi: wlcore: Convert to platform remove callback returning void

The .remove() callback for a platform driver returns an int which makes
many driver authors wrongly assume it's possible to do error handling by
returning an error code. However the value returned is (mostly) ignored
and this typically results in resource leaks. To improve here there is a
quest to make the remove callback return void. In the first step of this
quest all drivers are converted to .remove_new() which already returns
void.

wlcore_remove() returned zero unconditionally. With that converted to
return void instead, the wl12xx and wl18xx driver can be converted to
.remove_new trivially.

wlcore: Fix command execute failure 19 for wl12xx

We can currently get a "command execute failure 19" error on beacon loss
if the signal is weak:

wlcore: Beacon loss detected. roles:0xff
wlcore: Connection loss work (role_id: 0).

wlcore: ERROR command execute failure 19

(wl1271_op_bss_info_changed [wlcore])
(ieee80211_prep_connection [mac80211])

Error 19 is defined as CMD_STATUS_WRONG_NESTING from the wlcore firmware,
and seems to mean that the firmware no longer wants to see the quirk
handling for WLCORE_QUIRK_START_STA_FAILS done.

This quirk got added with commit 18eab430700d ("wlcore: workaround
start_sta problem in wl12xx fw"), and it seems that this already got fixed
in the firmware long time ago back in 2012 as wl18xx never had this quirk
in place to start with.

As we no longer even support firmware that early, to me it seems that it's
safe to just drop WLCORE_QUIRK_START_STA_FAILS to fix the error. Looks
like earlier firmware got disabled back in 2013 with commit 0e284c074ef9
("wl12xx: increase minimum singlerole firmware version required").

If it turns out we still need WLCORE_QUIRK_START_STA_FAILS with any
firmware that the driver works with, we can simply revert this patch and
add extra checks for firmware version used.

With this fix wlcore reconnects properly after a beacon loss.
