Merge tag 'net-next-7.2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next

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

- Work on removing rtnl_lock protection throughout the stack
continues. In this chapter:
- don't use rtnl_lock for IPv6 multicast routing configuration
- don't take rtnl_lock in ethtool for modern drivers
- prepare Qdisc dump callbacks for rtnl_lock removal

- Support dumping just ifindex + name of all interfaces, under RCU.
It's a common operation for Netlink CLI tools (when translating
names to ifindexes) and previously required full rtnl_lock.

- Support dumping qdiscs and page pools for a specific netdev. Even
tho user space wants a dump of all netdevs, most of the time, the
OOO programming model results in repeating the dump for each
netdev. Which, in absence of a cache, leads to a O(n^2) behavior.

- Flush nexthops once on multi-nexthop removal (e.g. when device goes
down), another O(n^2) -> O(n) improvement.

- Rehash locally generated traffic to a different nexthop on
retransmit timeout.

- Honor oif when choosing nexthop for locally generated IPv6 traffic.

- Convert TCP Auth Option to crypto library, and drop non-RFC algos.

- Increase subflow limits in MPTCP to 64 and endpoint limit to 256.

- Support MPTCP signaling of IPv6 address + port (ADD_ADDR). We need
to selectively skip reporting of the standard TCP Timestamp option,
because they won't fit into the header space together (12 + 30 >
40).

- Support using bridge neighbor suppression, Duplicate Address
Detection, Gratuitous ARP and unsolicited NA forwarding - in EVPN
deployments, e.g. VXLAN fabrics (IPv4 and IPv6).

- Improve link state reporting for upper netdevs (e.g. macvlan) over
tunnel devices (again, mostly for EVPN deployments).

- Support binding GENEVE tunnels to a local address.

- Speed up UDP tunnel destruction (remove one synchronize_rcu()).

- Support exponential field encoding in multicast (IGMPv3 and MLDv2).

- Support attaching PSP crypto offload to containers (veth, netkit).

- Add a new IPSec Netlink message XFRM_MSG_MIGRATE_STATE that allows
migrating individual IPsec SAs independently of their policies.

The existing XFRM_MSG_MIGRATE is tightly coupled to policy+SA
migration, lacks SPI for unique SA identification, and cannot
express reqid changes or migrate Transport mode selectors.

The new interface identifies the SA via SPI and mark, supports
reqid changes, address family changes, encap removal, and uses an
atomic create+install flow under x->lock to prevent SN/IV reuse
during AEAD SA migration.

- Implement GRO/GSO support for PPPoE.

- Convert sockopt callbacks in a number of protocols to iov_iter.

Cross-tree stuff:

- Remove support for Crypto TFM cloning (unblocked after the TCP Auth
Option rework). This feature regressed performance for all crypto
API users, since it changed crypto transformation objects into
reference-counted objects.

- Add FCrypt-PCBC implementation to rxrpc and remove it from the
global crypto API as obsolete and insecure.

Wireless:

- Major rework of station bandwidth handling, fixing issues with
lower capability than AP.

- Cleanups for EMLSR spec issues (drafts differed).

- More Neighbor Awareness Networking (Wi-Fi Aware) work (multicast,
schedule improvements, multi-station etc.)

- Some Ultra High Reliability (UHR) / IEEE 802.11bn (D1.4) work
(e.g. non-primary channel access, UHR DBE support).

- Fine Timing Measurement ranging (i.e. distance measurement) APIs.

Netfilter:

- Use per-rule hash initval in nf_conncount. This avoids unnecessary
lock contention with short keys (e.g. conntrack zones) in different
namespaces.

- Various safety improvements, both in packet parsing and object
lifetimes. Notably add refcounts to conntrack timeout policy.

Deletions:

- Remove TLS + sockmap integration. TLS wants to pin user pages to
avoid a copy, and sockmap wants to write to the input stream. More
work on this integration is clearly needed, and we can't find any
users (original author admitted that they never deployed it).

- Remove support for TLS offload with TCP Offload Engine (the far
more common opportunistic offload is retained). The locking looks
unfixable (driver sleeps under TCP spin locks) and people from the
vendor that added this are AWOL.

- Remove more ATM code, trying to leave behind only what PPPoATM
needs, AAL5 and br2684 with permanent circuits.

- Remove AppleTalk. Let it join hamradio in our out of tree protocol
graveyard, I mean, repository.

- Disable 32-bit x_tables compatibility (32bit binaries on 64bit
kernel) interface in user namespaces. To be deleted completely,
soon.

- Remove 5/10 MHz support from cfg80211/mac80211.

Drivers:

- Software:
- Support DEVMEM/DMABUF Tx over NETMEM_TX_NO_DMA devices (netkit)
- bonding: add knob to strictly follow 802.3ad for link state

- New drivers:
- Alibaba Elastic Ethernet Adaptor (cloud vNIC).
- NXP NETC switch within i.MX94.

- DPLL:
- Add operational state to pins (implement in zl3073x).
- Add generic DPLL type, for daisy-chaining DPLLs (implement in ice).

- Ethernet high-speed NICs:
- Huawei (hinic3):
- enhance tc flow offload support with queue selection,
tunnels
- nVidia/Mellanox:
- avoid over-copying payload to the skb's linear part (up to
60% win for LRO on slow CPUs like ARM64 V2)
- expose more per-queue stats over the standard API
- support additional, unprivileged PFs in the DPU
configuration
- support Socket Direct (multi-PF) with switchdev offloads
- add a pool / frag allocator for DMA mapped buffers for
control objects, save memory on systems with 64kB page size
- take advantage of the ability to dynamically change RSS
table size, even when table is configured by the user
- increase the max RSS table size for even traffic
distribution

Merge tag 'nf-next-26-05-25' of https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netfilter/nf-next

Florian Westphal says:

====================
netfilter: updates for net-next

The following patchset contains Netfilter fixes and small enhancements:

1) Disable 32-bit x_tables compatibility (32bit binaries on 64bit
kernel) interface in user namespaces. This is 'last warning'
before this is removed for good.

2) Add a configuration toggle for netfilter GCOV profiling. Provide
dedicated toggles for ipset and ipvs.

3) Remove modular support for nfnetlink and restrict it to built-in only.
From Pablo Neira Ayuso.

4) Use per-rule hash initval in nf_conncount. This avoids unecessary
lock contention with short keys (e.g. conntrack zones) in different
namespaces.

5) Use nf_ct_exp_net() in ctnetlink expectation dumps.
From Pratham Gupta.

6) Remove a dead conditional in nft_set_rbtree.

7) Fix conntrack helper policy updates to apply per-class values correctly.
From David Carlier.

8) Fix an off-by-one OOB read in nf_conntrack_irc:parse_dcc(). Use strict
less-than comparison in the newline search loop to respect the
exclusive-end pointer convention. From Muhammad Bilal.

9) Fix typos in nf_conntrack_proto_tcp comments. From Avinash Duduskar.

10) Restore performance optimization in nft_set_pipapo_avx2 by passing
the next map index. Refactor lookup logic for clarity and add a
DEBUG_NET check to document this.

11) Avoid (harmless) u16 overflow in nf_conntrack_ftp when parsing FTP PORT
and EPRT commands. Ignore commands where single octet exceeds 255.
From Giuseppe Caruso.

Patch 12, which removes incorrect (and obviously unused) code from
nft_byteorder was kept back to avoid a net -> net-next merge conflict.

Merge tag 'net-next-6.9' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next

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

- Large effort by Eric to lower rtnl_lock pressure and remove locks:

- Make commonly used parts of rtnetlink (address, route dumps
etc) lockless, protected by RCU instead of rtnl_lock.

- Add a netns exit callback which already holds rtnl_lock,
allowing netns exit to take rtnl_lock once in the core instead
of once for each driver / callback.

- Remove locks / serialization in the socket diag interface.

- Remove 6 calls to synchronize_rcu() while holding rtnl_lock.

- Remove the dev_base_lock, depend on RCU where necessary.

- Support busy polling on a per-epoll context basis. Poll length and
budget parameters can be set independently of system defaults.

- Introduce struct net_hotdata, to make sure read-mostly global
config variables fit in as few cache lines as possible.

- Add optional per-nexthop statistics to ease monitoring / debug of
ECMP imbalance problems.

- Support TCP_NOTSENT_LOWAT in MPTCP.

- Ensure that IPv6 temporary addresses' preferred lifetimes are long
enough, compared to other configured lifetimes, and at least 2 sec.

- Support forwarding of ICMP Error messages in IPSec, per RFC 4301.

- Add support for the independent control state machine for bonding
per IEEE 802.1AX-2008 5.4.15 in addition to the existing coupled
control state machine.

- Add "network ID" to MCTP socket APIs to support hosts with multiple
disjoint MCTP networks.

- Re-use the mono_delivery_time skbuff bit for packets which user
space wants to be sent at a specified time. Maintain the timing
information while traversing veth links, bridge etc.

- Take advantage of MSG_SPLICE_PAGES for RxRPC DATA and ACK packets.

- Simplify many places iterating over netdevs by using an xarray
instead of a hash table walk (hash table remains in place, for use
on fastpaths).

- Speed up scanning for expired routes by keeping a dedicated list.

- Speed up "generic" XDP by trying harder to avoid large allocations.

- Support attaching arbitrary metadata to netconsole messages.

Things we sprinkled into general kernel code:

- Enforce VM_IOREMAP flag and range in ioremap_page_range and
introduce VM_SPARSE kind and vm_area_[un]map_pages (used by
bpf_arena).

- Rework selftest harness to enable the use of the full range of ksft
exit code (pass, fail, skip, xfail, xpass).

Netfilter:

- Allow userspace to define a table that is exclusively owned by a
daemon (via netlink socket aliveness) without auto-removing this
table when the userspace program exits. Such table gets marked as
orphaned and a restarting management daemon can re-attach/regain
ownership.

- Speed up element insertions to nftables' concatenated-ranges set
type. Compact a few related data structures.

BPF:

- Add BPF token support for delegating a subset of BPF subsystem
functionality from privileged system-wide daemons such as systemd
through special mount options for userns-bound BPF fs to a trusted
& unprivileged application.

- Introduce bpf_arena which is sparse shared memory region between
BPF program and user space where structures inside the arena can
have pointers to other areas of the arena, and pointers work
seamlessly for both user-space programs and BPF programs.

- Introduce may_goto instruction that is a contract between the
verifier and the program. The verifier allows the program to loop
assuming it's behaving well, but reserves the right to terminate
it.

- Extend the BPF verifier to enable static subprog calls in spin lock
critical sections.

- Support registration of struct_ops types from modules which helps
projects like fuse-bpf that seeks to implement a new struct_ops
type.

- Add support for retrieval of cookies for perf/kprobe multi links.

- Support arbitrary TCP SYN cookie generation / validation in the TC
layer with BPF to allow creating SYN flood handling in BPF
firewalls.

- Add code generation to inline the bpf_kptr_xchg() helper which
improves performance when stashing/popping the allocated BPF
objects.

Wireless:

- Add SPP (signaling and payload protected) AMSDU support.

- Support wider bandwidth OFDMA, as required for EHT operation.

Driver API:

- Major overhaul of the Energy Efficient Ethernet internals to
support new link modes (2.5GE, 5GE), share more code between
drivers (especially those using phylib), and encourage more
uniform behavior. Convert and clean up drivers.

- Define an API for querying per netdev queue statistics from
drivers.

- IPSec: account in global stats for fully offloaded sessions.

- Create a concept of Ethernet PHY Packages at the Device Tree level,
to allow parameterizing the existing PHY package code.

- Enable Rx hashing (RSS) on GTP protocol fields.

Misc:

- Improvements and refactoring all over networking selftests.

- Create uniform module aliases for TC classifiers, actions, and
packet schedulers to simplify creating modprobe policies.

- Address all missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() warnings in networking.

- Extend the Netlink descriptions in YAML to cover message
encapsulation or "Netlink polymorphism", where interpretation of
nested attributes depends on link type, classifier type or some
other "class type".

Drivers:

- Ethernet high-speed NICs:
- Add a new driver for Marvell's Octeon PCI Endpoint NIC VF.
- Intel (100G, ice, idpf):
- support E825-C devices
- nVidia/Mellanox:
- support devices with one port and multiple PCIe links
- Broadcom (bnxt):
- support n-tuple filters
- support configuring the RSS key
- Wangxun (ngbe/txgbe):
- implement irq_domain for TXGBE's sub-interrupts
- Pensando/AMD:

Florian Westphal says:

====================
nf-next pr 2024-01-29

This batch contains updates for your *next* tree.

First three changes, from Phil Sutter, allow userspace to define
a table that is exclusively owned by a daemon (via netlink socket
aliveness) without auto-removing this table when the userspace program
exits. Such table gets marked as orphaned and a restarting management
daemon may re-attach/reassume ownership.

Next patch, from Pablo, passes already-validated flags variable around
rather than having called code re-fetch it from netlnik message.

Patches 5 and 6 update ipvs and nf_conncount to use the recently
introduced KMEM_CACHE() macro.

Last three patches, from myself, tweak kconfig logic a little to
permit a kernel configuration that can run iptables-over-nftables
but not classic (setsockopt) iptables.

Such builds lack the builtin-filter/mangle/raw/nat/security tables,
the set/getsockopt interface and the "old blob format"
interpreter/traverser. For now, this is 'oldconfig friendly', users
need to manually deselect existing config options for this.

netfilter: xtables: allow xtables-nft only builds

Add hidden IP(6)_NF_IPTABLES_LEGACY symbol.

When any of the "old" builtin tables are enabled the "old" iptables
interface will be supported.

To disable the old set/getsockopt interface the existing options
for the builtin tables need to be turned off:

CONFIG_IP_NF_IPTABLES=m
CONFIG_IP_NF_FILTER is not set
CONFIG_IP_NF_NAT is not set
CONFIG_IP_NF_MANGLE is not set
CONFIG_IP_NF_RAW is not set
CONFIG_IP_NF_SECURITY is not set

Same for CONFIG_IP6_NF_ variants.

This allows to build a kernel that only supports ip(6)tables-nft
(iptables-over-nftables api).

In the future the _LEGACY symbol will become visible and the select
statements will be turned into 'depends on', but for now be on safe side
so "make oldconfig" won't break things.

A collection of fixes that came in since the merge window, plus one new
device ID for an x86 laptop. Nothing that really stands out with
particularly big impact outside of the affected device.
