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

Pablo Neira Ayuso says:

====================
Netfilter updates for net-next

The following batch contains Netfilter updates for net-next:

Patch #1 fix checksum calculation in nfnetlink_queue with SCTP,
segment GSO packet since skb_zerocopy() does not support
GSO_BY_FRAGS, from Antonio Ojea.

Patch #2 extend nfnetlink_queue coverage to handle SCTP packets,
from Antonio Ojea.

Patch #3 uses consume_skb() instead of kfree_skb() in nfnetlink,
from Donald Hunter.

Patch #4 adds a dedicate commit list for sets to speed up
intra-transaction lookups, from Florian Westphal.

Patch #5 skips removal of element from abort path for the pipapo
backend, ditching the shadow copy of this datastructure
is sufficient.

Patch #6 moves nf_ct_netns_get() out of nf_conncount_init() to
let users of conncoiunt decide when to enable conntrack,
this is needed by openvswitch, from Xin Long.

Patch #7 pass context to all nft_parse_register_load() in
preparation for the next patch.

Patches #8 and #9 reject loads from uninitialized registers from
control plane to remove register initialization from
datapath. From Florian Westphal.

ASoC: Improve coverage in default KUnit runs

Merge series from Mark Brown <broonie@kernel.org>:

We have some KUnit tests for ASoC but they're not being run as much as
they should be since ASoC isn't enabled in the configs used by default
with KUnit and in the case of the topology tests there is no way to
enable them without enabling drivers that use them. This series
provides a Kconfig option which KUnit can use directly rather than worry
about drivers.

Further, since KUnit is typically run in UML but ALSA prevents build
with UML we need to remove that Kconfig conflict. As far as I can tell
the motiviation for this is that many ALSA drivers use iomem APIs which
are not available under UML and it's more trouble than it's worth to go
through and add per driver dependencies. In order to avoid these issues
we also provide stubs for these APIs so there are no build time issues
if a driver relies on iomem but does not depend on it. With these stubs
I am able to build all the sound drivers available in a UML defconfig
(UML allmodconfig appears to have substantial other issues in a quick
test).

With this series I am able to run the topology KUnit tests as part of a
kunit --alltests run.

netfilter: nf_tables: report use refcount overflow

Overflow use refcount checks are not complete.

Add helper function to deal with object reference counter tracking.
Report -EMFILE in case UINT_MAX is reached.

nft_use_dec() splats in case that reference counter underflows,
which should not ever happen.

Add nft_use_inc_restore() and nft_use_dec_restore() which are used
to restore reference counter from error and abort paths.

Use u32 in nft_flowtable and nft_object since helper functions cannot
work on bitfields.

Remove the few early incomplete checks now that the helper functions
are in place and used to check for refcount overflow.
