Merge tag 'mm-nonmm-stable-2025-12-06-11-14' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Pull non-MM updates from Andrew Morton:

- "panic: sys_info: Refactor and fix a potential issue" (Andy Shevchenko)
fixes a build issue and does some cleanup in ib/sys_info.c

- "Implement mul_u64_u64_div_u64_roundup()" (David Laight)
enhances the 64-bit math code on behalf of a PWM driver and beefs up
the test module for these library functions

- "scripts/gdb/symbols: make BPF debug info available to GDB" (Ilya Leoshkevich)
makes BPF symbol names, sizes, and line numbers available to the GDB
debugger

- "Enable hung_task and lockup cases to dump system info on demand" (Feng Tang)
adds a sysctl which can be used to cause additional info dumping when
the hung-task and lockup detectors fire

- "lib/base64: add generic encoder/decoder, migrate users" (Kuan-Wei Chiu)
adds a general base64 encoder/decoder to lib/ and migrates several
users away from their private implementations

- "rbree: inline rb_first() and rb_last()" (Eric Dumazet)
makes TCP a little faster

- "liveupdate: Rework KHO for in-kernel users" (Pasha Tatashin)
reworks the KEXEC Handover interfaces in preparation for Live Update
Orchestrator (LUO), and possibly for other future clients

- "kho: simplify state machine and enable dynamic updates" (Pasha Tatashin)
increases the flexibility of KEXEC Handover. Also preparation for LUO

- "Live Update Orchestrator" (Pasha Tatashin)
is a major new feature targeted at cloud environments. Quoting the
cover letter:

This series introduces the Live Update Orchestrator, a kernel
subsystem designed to facilitate live kernel updates using a
kexec-based reboot. This capability is critical for cloud
environments, allowing hypervisors to be updated with minimal
downtime for running virtual machines. LUO achieves this by
preserving the state of selected resources, such as memory,
devices and their dependencies, across the kernel transition.

As a key feature, this series includes support for preserving
memfd file descriptors, which allows critical in-memory data, such
as guest RAM or any other large memory region, to be maintained in
RAM across the kexec reboot.

Mike Rappaport merits a mention here, for his extensive review and
testing work.

- "kexec: reorganize kexec and kdump sysfs" (Sourabh Jain)
moves the kexec and kdump sysfs entries from /sys/kernel/ to
/sys/kernel/kexec/ and adds back-compatibility symlinks which can
hopefully be removed one day

- "kho: fixes for vmalloc restoration" (Mike Rapoport)
fixes a BUG which was being hit during KHO restoration of vmalloc()
regions

selftests/liveupdate: add userspace API selftests

Introduce a selftest suite for LUO. These tests validate the core
userspace-facing API provided by the /dev/liveupdate device and its
associated ioctls.

The suite covers fundamental device behavior, session management, and the
file preservation mechanism using memfd as a test case. This provides
regression testing for the LUO uAPI.

The following functionality is verified:

Device Access:
Basic open and close operations on /dev/liveupdate.
Enforcement of exclusive device access (verifying EBUSY on a
second open).

Session Management:
Successful creation of sessions with unique names.
Failure to create sessions with duplicate names.

File Preservation:
Preserving a single memfd and verifying its content remains
intact post-preservation.
Preserving multiple memfds within a single session, each with
unique data.
A complex scenario involving multiple sessions, each containing
a mix of empty and data-filled memfds.

Note: This test suite is limited to verifying the pre-kexec functionality
of LUO (e.g., session creation, file preservation). The post-kexec
restoration of resources is not covered, as the kselftest framework does
not currently support orchestrating a reboot and continuing execution in
the new kernel.

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:

- Add a new Huawei driver for 3rd gen NIC (hinic3)

- Add a new SpacemiT driver for K1 ethernet MAC

- Add a generic abstraction for shared memory communication
devices (dibps)

- Ethernet high-speed NICs:
- nVidia/Mellanox:
- Use multiple per-queue doorbell, to avoid MMIO contention
issues
- support adjacent functions, allowing them to delegate their
SR-IOV VFs to sibling PFs
- support RSS for IPSec offload
- support exposing raw cycle counters in PTP and mlx5
- support for disabling host PFs.
- Intel (100G, ice, idpf):
- ice: support for SRIOV VFs over an Active-Active link
aggregate
- ice: support for firmware logging via debugfs
- ice: support for Earliest TxTime First (ETF) hardware offload
- idpf: support basic XDP functionalities and XSk
- Broadcom (bnxt):
- support Hyper-V VF ID
- dynamic SRIOV resource allocations for RoCE
- Meta (fbnic):
- support queue API, zero-copy Rx and Tx

selftests/Makefile: include $(INSTALL_DEP_TARGETS) in clean target to clean net/lib dependency

The selftests 'make clean' does not clean the net/lib because it only
processes $(TARGETS) and ignores $(INSTALL_DEP_TARGETS). This leaves
compiled objects in net/lib after cleaning, requiring manual cleanup.

Include $(INSTALL_DEP_TARGETS) in clean target to ensure net/lib
dependency is properly cleaned.
