Merge tag 'net-next-6.11' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
"Not much excitement - a handful of large patchsets (devmem among them)
did not make it in time.

Core & protocols:

- Use local_lock in addition to local_bh_disable() to protect per-CPU
resources in networking, a step closer for local_bh_disable() not
to act as a big lock on PREEMPT_RT

- Use flex array for netdevice priv area, ensure its cache alignment

- Add a sysctl knob to allow user to specify a default rto_min at
socket init time. Bit of a big hammer but multiple companies were
independently carrying such patch downstream so clearly it's useful

- Support scheduling transmission of packets based on CLOCK_TAI

- Un-pin TCP TIMEWAIT timer to avoid it firing on CPUs later cordoned
off using cpusets

- Support multiple L2TPv3 UDP tunnels using the same 5-tuple address

- Allow configuration of multipath hash seed, to both allow
synchronizing hashing of two routers, and preventing partial
accidental sync

- Improve TCP compliance with RFC 9293 for simultaneous connect()

- Support sending NAT keepalives in IPsec ESP in UDP states.
Userspace IKE daemon had to do this before, but the kernel can
better keep track of it

- Support sending supervision HSR frames with MAC addresses stored in
ProxyNodeTable when RedBox (i.e. HSR-SAN) is enabled

- Introduce IPPROTO_SMC for selecting SMC when socket is created

- Allow UDP GSO transmit from devices with no checksum offload

- openvswitch: add packet sampling via psample, separating the
sampled traffic from "upcall" packets sent to user space for
forwarding

- nf_tables: shrink memory consumption for transaction objects

Things we sprinkled into general kernel code:

- Power Sequencing subsystem (used by Qualcomm Bluetooth driver for
QCA6390) [ Already merged separately - Linus ]

- Add IRQ information in sysfs for auxiliary bus

- Introduce guard definition for local_lock

- Add aligned flavor of __cacheline_group_{begin, end}() markings for
grouping fields in structures

BPF:

- Notify user space (via epoll) when a struct_ops object is getting
detached/unregistered

- Add new kfuncs for a generic, open-coded bits iterator

- Enable BPF programs to declare arrays of kptr, bpf_rb_root, and
bpf_list_head

- Support resilient split BTF which cuts down on duplication and
makes BTF as compact as possible WRT BTF from modules

- Add support for dumping kfunc prototypes from BTF which enables
both detecting as well as dumping compilable prototypes for kfuncs

- riscv64 BPF JIT improvements in particular to add 12-argument
support for BPF trampolines and to utilize bpf_prog_pack for the
latter

- Add the capability to offload the netfilter flowtable in XDP layer
through kfuncs

Driver API:

- Allow users to configure IRQ tresholds between which automatic IRQ
moderation can choose

- Expand Power Sourcing (PoE) status with power, class and failure
reason. Support setting power limits

- Track additional RSS contexts in the core, make sure configuration
changes don't break them

- Support IPsec crypto offload for IPv6 ESP and IPv4 UDP-encapsulated
ESP data paths

- Support updating firmware on SFP modules

Tests and tooling:

- mptcp: use net/lib.sh to manage netns

- TCP-AO and TCP-MD5: replace debug prints used by tests with
tracepoints

tools)

Merge branch 'net-openvswitch-add-sample-multicasting'

Adrian Moreno says:

====================
net: openvswitch: Add sample multicasting.

** Background **
Currently, OVS supports several packet sampling mechanisms (sFlow,
per-bridge IPFIX, per-flow IPFIX). These end up being translated into a
userspace action that needs to be handled by ovs-vswitchd's handler
threads only to be forwarded to some third party application that
will somehow process the sample and provide observability on the
datapath.

A particularly interesting use-case is controller-driven
per-flow IPFIX sampling where the OpenFlow controller can add metadata
to samples (via two 32bit integers) and this metadata is then available
to the sample-collecting system for correlation.

** Problem **
The fact that sampled traffic share netlink sockets and handler thread
time with upcalls, apart from being a performance bottleneck in the
sample extraction itself, can severely compromise the datapath,
yielding this solution unfit for highly loaded production systems.

Users are left with little options other than guessing what sampling
rate will be OK for their traffic pattern and system load and dealing
with the lost accuracy.

Looking at available infrastructure, an obvious candidated would be
to use psample. However, it's current state does not help with the
use-case at stake because sampled packets do not contain user-defined
metadata.

** Proposal **
This series is an attempt to fix this situation by extending the
existing psample infrastructure to carry a variable length
user-defined cookie.

The main existing user of psample is tc's act_sample. It is also
extended to forward the action's cookie to psample.

Finally, a new OVS action (OVS_SAMPLE_ATTR_PSAMPLE) is created.
It accepts a group and an optional cookie and uses psample to
multicast the packet and the metadata.

Add support for a new action: psample.

This action accepts a u32 group id and a variable-length cookie and uses
the psample multicast group to make the packet available for
observability.

The maximum length of the user-defined cookie is set to 16, same as
tc_cookie, to discourage using cookies that will not be offloadable.

Merge tag 'net-next-6.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
"Core:

- Add dedicated kmem_cache for typical/small skb->head, avoid having
to access struct page at kfree time, and improve memory use.

- Introduce sysctl to set default RPS configuration for new netdevs.

- Define Netlink protocol specification format which can be used to
describe messages used by each family and auto-generate parsers.
Add tools for generating kernel data structures and uAPI headers.

- Expose all net/core sysctls inside netns.

- Remove 4s sleep in netpoll if carrier is instantly detected on
boot.

- Add configurable limit of MDB entries per port, and port-vlan.

- Continue populating drop reasons throughout the stack.

- Retire a handful of legacy Qdiscs and classifiers.

Protocols:

- Support IPv4 big TCP (TSO frames larger than 64kB).

- Add IP_LOCAL_PORT_RANGE socket option, to control local port range
on socket by socket basis.

- Track and report in procfs number of MPTCP sockets used.

- Support mixing IPv4 and IPv6 flows in the in-kernel MPTCP path
manager.

- IPv6: don't check net.ipv6.route.max_size and rely on garbage
collection to free memory (similarly to IPv4).

- Support Penultimate Segment Pop (PSP) flavor in SRv6 (RFC8986).

- ICMP: add per-rate limit counters.

- Add support for user scanning requests in ieee802154.

- Remove static WEP support.

- Support minimal Wi-Fi 7 Extremely High Throughput (EHT) rate
reporting.

- WiFi 7 EHT channel puncturing support (client & AP).

BPF:

- Add a rbtree data structure following the "next-gen data structure"
precedent set by recently added linked list, that is, by using
kfunc + kptr instead of adding a new BPF map type.

- Expose XDP hints via kfuncs with initial support for RX hash and
timestamp metadata.

- Add BPF_F_NO_TUNNEL_KEY extension to bpf_skb_set_tunnel_key to
better support decap on GRE tunnel devices not operating in collect
metadata.

- Improve x86 JIT's codegen for PROBE_MEM runtime error checks.

- Remove the need for trace_printk_lock for bpf_trace_printk and
bpf_trace_vprintk helpers.

- Extend libbpf's bpf_tracing.h support for tracing arguments of
kprobes/uprobes and syscall as a special case.

- Significantly reduce the search time for module symbols by
livepatch and BPF.

- Enable cpumasks to be used as kptrs, which is useful for tracing
programs tracking which tasks end up running on which CPUs in
different time intervals.

- Add support for BPF trampoline on s390x and riscv64.

- Add capability to export the XDP features supported by the NIC.

- Add __bpf_kfunc tag for marking kernel functions as kfuncs.

- Add cgroup.memory=nobpf kernel parameter option to disable BPF
memory accounting for container environments.

Netfilter:

- Remove the CLUSTERIP target. It has been marked as obsolete for
years, and we still have WARN splats wrt races of the out-of-band
/proc interface installed by this target.

- Add 'destroy' commands to nf_tables. They are identical to the
existing 'delete' commands, but do not return an error if the
referenced object (set, chain, rule...) did not exist.

Driver API:

- Improve cpumask_local_spread() locality to help NICs set the right
IRQ affinity on AMD platforms.

- Separate C22 and C45 MDIO bus transactions more clearly.

- Introduce new DCB table to control DSCP rewrite on egress.

- Support configuration of Physical Layer Collision Avoidance (PLCA)
Reconciliation Sublayer (RS) (802.3cg-2019). Modern version of
shared medium Ethernet.

- Support for MAC Merge layer (IEEE 802.3-2018 clause 99). Allowing
preemption of low priority frames by high priority frames.

- Add support for controlling MACSec offload using netlink SET.

- Rework devlink instance refcounts to allow registration and
de-registration under the instance lock. Split the code into
multiple files, drop some of the unnecessarily granular locks and
factor out common parts of netlink operation handling.

- Add TX frame aggregation parameters (for USB drivers).

- Add a new attr TCA_EXT_WARN_MSG to report TC (offload) warning
messages with notifications for debug.

- Allow offloading of UDP NEW connections via act_ct.

- Add support for per action HW stats in TC.

- Support hardware miss to TC action (continue processing in SW from
a specific point in the action chain).

- Warn if old Wireless Extension user space interface is used with
modern cfg80211/mac80211 drivers. Do not support Wireless
Extensions for Wi-Fi 7 devices at all. Everyone should switch to
using nl80211 interface instead.

- Improve the CAN bit timing configuration. Use extack to return
error messages directly to user space, update the SJW handling,
including the definition of a new default value that will benefit
CAN-FD controllers, by increasing their oscillator tolerance.
