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".

Merge tag 'net-next-6.8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next

Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
"The most interesting thing is probably the networking structs
reorganization and a significant amount of changes is around
self-tests.

Core & protocols:

- Analyze and reorganize core networking structs (socks, netdev,
netns, mibs) to optimize cacheline consumption and set up build
time warnings to safeguard against future header changes

This improves TCP performances with many concurrent connections up
to 40%

- Add page-pool netlink-based introspection, exposing the memory
usage and recycling stats. This helps indentify bad PP users and
possible leaks

- Refine TCP/DCCP source port selection to no longer favor even
source port at connect() time when IP_LOCAL_PORT_RANGE is set. This
lowers the time taken by connect() for hosts having many active
connections to the same destination

- Refactor the TCP bind conflict code, shrinking related socket
structs

- Refactor TCP SYN-Cookie handling, as a preparation step to allow
arbitrary SYN-Cookie processing via eBPF

- Tune optmem_max for 0-copy usage, increasing the default value to
128KB and namespecifying it

- Allow coalescing for cloned skbs coming from page pools, improving
RX performances with some common configurations

- Reduce extension header parsing overhead at GRO time

- Add bridge MDB bulk deletion support, allowing user-space to
request the deletion of matching entries

- Reorder nftables struct members, to keep data accessed by the
datapath first

- Introduce TC block ports tracking and use. This allows supporting
multicast-like behavior at the TC layer

- Remove UAPI support for retired TC qdiscs (dsmark, CBQ and ATM) and
classifiers (RSVP and tcindex)

- More data-race annotations

- Extend the diag interface to dump TCP bound-only sockets

- Conditional notification of events for TC qdisc class and actions

- Support for WPAN dynamic associations with nearby devices, to form
a sub-network using a specific PAN ID

- Implement SMCv2.1 virtual ISM device support

- Add support for Batman-avd mulicast packet type

BPF:

- Tons of verifier improvements:
- BPF register bounds logic and range support along with a large
test suite
- log improvements
- complete precision tracking support for register spills
- track aligned STACK_ZERO cases as imprecise spilled registers.
This improves the verifier "instructions processed" metric from
single digit to 50-60% for some programs
- support for user's global BPF subprogram arguments with few
commonly requested annotations for a better developer
experience
- support tracking of BPF_JNE which helps cases when the compiler
transforms (unsigned) "a > 0" into "if a == 0 goto xxx" and the
like
- several fixes

- Add initial TX metadata implementation for AF_XDP with support in
mlx5 and stmmac drivers. Two types of offloads are supported right
now, that is, TX timestamp and TX checksum offload

- Fix kCFI bugs in BPF all forms of indirect calls from BPF into
kernel and from kernel into BPF work with CFI enabled. This allows
BPF to work with CONFIG_FINEIBT=y

- Change BPF verifier logic to validate global subprograms lazily
instead of unconditionally before the main program, so they can be
guarded using BPF CO-RE techniques

- Support uid/gid options when mounting bpffs

- Add a new kfunc which acquires the associated cgroup of a task
within a specific cgroup v1 hierarchy where the latter is
identified by its id

- Extend verifier to allow bpf_refcount_acquire() of a map value
field obtained via direct load which is a use-case needed in
sched_ext

- Add BPF link_info support for uprobe multi link along with bpftool
integration for the latter

- Support for VLAN tag in XDP hints

- Remove deprecated bpfilter kernel leftovers given the project is
developed in user-space (https://github.com/facebook/bpfilter)

Misc:

- Support for parellel TC self-tests execution

- Increase MPTCP self-tests coverage

- Updated the bridge documentation, including several so-far
undocumented features

- Convert all the net self-tests to run in unique netns, to avoid
random failures due to conflict and allow concurrent runs

- Add TCP-AO self-tests

- Add kunit tests for both cfg80211 and mac80211

- Autogenerate Netlink families documentation from YAML spec

- Add yml-gen support for fixed headers and recursive nests, the tool
can now generate user-space code for all genetlink families for
which we have specs

- A bunch of additional module descriptions fixes

- Catch incorrect freeing of pages belonging to a page pool

Driver API:

- Rust abstractions for network PHY drivers; do not cover yet the
full C API, but already allow implementing functional PHY drivers
in rust

- Introduce queue and NAPI support in the netdev Netlink interface,
allowing complete access to the device <> NAPIs <> queues
relationship

- Introduce notifications filtering for devlink to allow control
application scale to thousands of instances

- Improve PHY validation, requesting rate matching information for
each ethtool link mode supported by both the PHY and host

- Add support for ethtool symmetric-xor RSS hash

- ACPI based Wifi band RFI (WBRF) mitigation feature for the AMD
platform

- Expose pin fractional frequency offset value over new DPLL generic
netlink attribute

- Convert older drivers to platform remove callback returning void

- Add support for PHY package MMD read/write

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.

In 4way handshake offload, cfg80211_port_authorized enables driver
to indicate successful 4way handshake to cfg80211 layer. Currently
this path of port authorization is restricted to interface type
NL80211_IFTYPE_STATION and NL80211_IFTYPE_P2P_CLIENT. This patch
extends the support for NL80211_IFTYPE_AP and NL80211_IFTYPE_P2P_GO
interfaces to authorize peer STA/P2P_CLIENT, whenever authentication
is offloaded on the AP/P2P_GO interface.

Kalle Valo says:

====================
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
