Merge tag 'net-next-6.18' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next

Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
"Core & protocols:

- Improve drop account scalability on NUMA hosts for RAW and UDP
sockets and the backlog, almost doubling the Pps capacity under DoS

- Optimize the UDP RX performance under stress, reducing contention,
revisiting the binary layout of the involved data structs and
implementing NUMA-aware locking. This improves UDP RX performance
by an additional 50%, even more under extreme conditions

- Add support for PSP encryption of TCP connections; this mechanism
has some similarities with IPsec and TLS, but offers superior HW
offloads capabilities

- Ongoing work to support Accurate ECN for TCP. AccECN allows more
than one congestion notification signal per RTT and is a building
block for Low Latency, Low Loss, and Scalable Throughput (L4S)

- Reorganize the TCP socket binary layout for data locality, reducing
the number of touched cachelines in the fastpath

- Refactor skb deferral free to better scale on large multi-NUMA
hosts, this improves TCP and UDP RX performances significantly on
such HW

- Increase the default socket memory buffer limits from 256K to 4M to
better fit modern link speeds

- Improve handling of setups with a large number of nexthop, making
dump operating scaling linearly and avoiding unneeded
synchronize_rcu() on delete

- Improve bridge handling of VLAN FDB, storing a single entry per
bridge instead of one entry per port; this makes the dump order of
magnitude faster on large switches

- Restore IP ID correctly for encapsulated packets at GSO
segmentation time, allowing GRO to merge packets in more scenarios

- Improve netfilter matching performance on large sets

- Improve MPTCP receive path performance by leveraging recently
introduced core infrastructure (skb deferral free) and adopting
recent TCP autotuning changes

- Allow bridges to redirect to a backup port when the bridge port is
administratively down

- Introduce MPTCP 'laminar' endpoint that con be used only once per
connection and simplify common MPTCP setups

- Add RCU safety to dst->dev, closing a lot of possible races

- A significant crypto library API for SCTP, MPTCP and IPv6 SR,
reducing code duplication

- Supports pulling data from an skb frag into the linear area of an
XDP buffer

Things we sprinkled into general kernel code:

- Generate netlink documentation from YAML using an integrated YAML
parser

Driver API:

- Support using IPv6 Flow Label in Rx hash computation and RSS queue
selection

- Introduce API for fetching the DMA device for a given queue,
allowing TCP zerocopy RX on more H/W setups

- Make XDP helpers compatible with unreadable memory, allowing more
easily building DevMem-enabled drivers with a unified XDP/skbs
datapath

- Add a new dedicated ethtool callback enabling drivers to provide
the number of RX rings directly, improving efficiency and clarity
in RX ring queries and RSS configuration

- Introduce a burst period for the health reporter, allowing better
handling of multiple errors due to the same root cause

- Support for DPLL phase offset exponential moving average,
controlling the average smoothing factor

Device drivers:

Merge branch 'dibs-direct-internal-buffer-sharing'

Alexandra Winter says:

====================
dibs - Direct Internal Buffer Sharing

This series introduces a generic abstraction of existing components like:
- the s390 specific ISM device (Internal Shared Memory),
- the SMC-D loopback mechanism (Shared Memory Communication - Direct)
- the client interface of the SMC-D module to the transport devices
This generic shim layer can be extended with more devices, more clients and
more features in the future.

This layer is called 'dibs' for Direct Internal Buffer Sharing based on the
common scheme that these mechanisms enable controlled sharing of memory
buffers within some containing entity such as a hypervisor or a Linux
instance.

Benefits:
- Cleaner separation of ISM and SMC-D functionality
- simpler and less module dependencies
- Clear interface definition.
- Extendable for future devices and clients.

An overview was given at the Netdev 0x19 conference, recordings and slides
are available [1].

Background / Status quo:
------------------------
Currently s390 hardware provides virtual PCI ISM devices (Internal Shared
Memory). Their driver is in drivers/s390/net/ism_drv.c. The main user is
SMC-D (net/smc). The ism driver offers a client interface so other
users/protocols can also use them, but it is still heavily intermingled
with the smc code. Namely, the ism module cannot be used without the smc
module, which feels artificial.

There is ongoing work to extend the ISM concept of shared buffers that can
be accessed directly by another instance on the same hardware: [2] proposed
a loopback interface (ism_lo), that can be used on non-s390 architectures
(e.g. between containers or to test SMC-D). A minimal implementation went
upstream with [3]: ism_lo currently is a part of the smc protocol and
rather hidden.

[4] proposed a virtio definition of ism (ism_virtio) that can be used
between kvm guests.

We will shortly send an RFC for an dibs client that uses dibs as transport
for TTY.

Concept:
--------
Create a shim layer in net/dibs that contains common definitions and code
for all dibs devices and all dibs clients. Any device or client module only
needs to depend on this dibs layer module and any device or client code
only needs to include the definitions in include/linux/dibs.h.

The name dibs was chosen to clearly distinguish it from the existing s390
ism devices. And to emphasize that it is not about sharing whole memory
regions with anybody, but dedicating single buffers for another system.

Implementation:
---------------
The end result of this series is: A dibs shim layer with
- One dibs client: smc-d
- Two dibs device drivers: ism and dibs-loopback
- Everything prepared to add more clients and more device drivers.

Patches 1-2 contain some issues that were found along the way. They make
sense on their own, but also enable a better structured dibs series.

There are three components that exist today:
a) smc module (especially SMC-D functionality, which is an ism client today)
b) ism device driver (supports multiple ism clients today)
c) smc-loopback (integrated with smc today)
In order to preserve existing functionality at each step, these are not
moved to dibs layer by component, instead:
- the dibs layer is established in parallel to existing code [patches 3-6]
- then some service functions are moved to the dibs layer [patches 7-12]
- the actual data movement is moved to the dibs layer [patch 13]
- and last event handling is moved to the dibs layer [patch 14]

Future:
-------
Items that are not part of this patchset but can be added later:
- dynamically add or remove dibs_loopback. That will be allow for simple
testing of add_dev()/del_dev()
- handle_irq(): Call clients without interrupt context. e.g using
threaded interrupts. I left this for a follow-on, because it includes
conceptual changes for the smcd receive code.
- Any improvements of locking scopes. I mainly moved some of the the
existing locks to dibs layer. I have the feeling there is room for
improvements.
- The device drivers should not loop through the client array
- dibs_dev_op.*_dmb() functions reveal unnecessary details of the
internal dmb struct to the clients
- Check whether client calls to dibs_dev_ops should be replaced by
interface functions that provide additional value
- Check whether device driver calls to dibs_client_ops should be replaced
by interface functions that provide additional value.

dibs: Move event handling to dibs layer

Add defines for all event types and subtypes an ism device is known to
produce as it can be helpful for debugging purposes.

Introduces a generic 'struct dibs_event' and adopt ism device driver
and smc-d client accordingly. Tolerate and ignore other type and subtype
values to enable future device extensions.

SMC-D and ISM are now independent.
struct ism_dev can be moved to drivers/s390/net/ism.h.

Note that in smc, the term 'ism' is still used. Future patches could
replace that with 'dibs' or 'smc-d' as appropriate.

dibs: Register ism as dibs device

Register ism devices with the dibs layer. Follow-on patches will move
functionality to the dibs layer.

As DIBS is only a shim layer without any dependencies, we can depend ISM
on DIBS without adding indirect dependencies. A follow-on patch will
remove implication of SMC by ISM.

Define struct dibs_dev. Follow-on patches will move more content into
dibs_dev. The goal of follow-on patches is that ism_dev will only
contain fields that are special for this device driver. The same concept
will apply to other dibs device drivers.

Define dibs_dev_alloc(), dibs_dev_add() and dibs_dev_del() to be called
by dibs device drivers and call them from ism_drv.c
Use ism_dev.dibs for a pointer to dibs_dev.
