Merge tag 'net-next-6.15' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next

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

- Continue Netlink conversions to per-namespace RTNL lock
(IPv4 routing, routing rules, routing next hops, ARP ioctls)

- Continue extending the use of netdev instance locks. As a driver
opt-in protect queue operations and (in due course) ethtool
operations with the instance lock and not RTNL lock.

- Support collecting TCP timestamps (data submitted, sent, acked) in
BPF, allowing for transparent (to the application) and lower
overhead tracking of TCP RPC performance.

- Tweak existing networking Rx zero-copy infra to support zero-copy
Rx via io_uring.

- Optimize MPTCP performance in single subflow mode by 29%.

- Enable GRO on packets which went thru XDP CPU redirect (were queued
for processing on a different CPU). Improving TCP stream
performance up to 2x.

- Improve performance of contended connect() by 200% by searching for
an available 4-tuple under RCU rather than a spin lock. Bring an
additional 229% improvement by tweaking hash distribution.

- Avoid unconditionally touching sk_tsflags on RX, improving
performance under UDP flood by as much as 10%.

- Avoid skb_clone() dance in ping_rcv() to improve performance under
ping flood.

- Avoid FIB lookup in netfilter if socket is available, 20% perf win.

- Rework network device creation (in-kernel) API to more clearly
identify network namespaces and their roles. There are up to 4
namespace roles but we used to have just 2 netns pointer arguments,
interpreted differently based on context.

- Use sysfs_break_active_protection() instead of trylock to avoid
deadlocks between unregistering objects and sysfs access.

- Add a new sysctl and sockopt for capping max retransmit timeout in
TCP.

- Support masking port and DSCP in routing rule matches.

- Support dumping IPv4 multicast addresses with RTM_GETMULTICAST.

- Support specifying at what time packet should be sent on AF_XDP
sockets.

- Expose TCP ULP diagnostic info (for TLS and MPTCP) to non-admin
users.

- Add Netlink YAML spec for WiFi (nl80211) and conntrack.

- Introduce EXPORT_IPV6_MOD() and EXPORT_IPV6_MOD_GPL() for symbols
which only need to be exported when IPv6 support is built as a
module.

- Age FDB entries based on Rx not Tx traffic in VxLAN, similar to
normal bridging.

- Allow users to specify source port range for GENEVE tunnels.

- netconsole: allow attaching kernel release, CPU ID and task name to
messages as metadata

====================
netdev-genl: Add an xsk attribute to queues

This is an attempt to followup on something Jakub asked me about [1],
adding an xsk attribute to queues and more clearly documenting which
queues are linked to NAPIs...

After the RFC [2], Jakub suggested creating an empty nest for queues
which have a pool, so I've adjusted this version to work that way.

The nest can be extended in the future to express attributes about XSK
as needed. Queues which are not used for AF_XDP do not have the xsk
attribute present.

I've run the included test on:
- my mlx5 machine (via NETIF=)
- without setting NETIF

And the test seems to pass in both cases.

Merge branch 'netconsole-cpu-population'

Breno Leitao says:

====================
netconsole: Add support for CPU population

The current implementation of netconsole sends all log messages in
parallel, which can lead to an intermixed and interleaved output on the
receiving side. This makes it challenging to demultiplex the messages
and attribute them to their originating CPUs.

As a result, users and developers often struggle to effectively analyze
and debug the parallel log output received through netconsole.

Example of a message got from produciton hosts:

------------[ cut here ]------------
------------[ cut here ]------------
refcount_t: saturated; leaking memory.
WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 1613668 at lib/refcount.c:22 refcount_warn_saturate+0x5e/0xe0
refcount_t: addition on 0; use-after-free.
WARNING: CPU: 26 PID: 4139916 at lib/refcount.c:25 refcount_warn_saturate+0x7d/0xe0
Modules linked in: bpf_preload(E) vhost_net(E) tun(E) vhost(E)

This series of patches introduces a new feature to the netconsole
subsystem that allows the automatic population of the CPU number in the
userdata field for each log message. This enhancement provides several
benefits:

* Improved demultiplexing of parallel log output: When multiple CPUs are
sending messages concurrently, the added CPU number in the userdata
makes it easier to differentiate and attribute the messages to their
originating CPUs.

* Better visibility into message sources: The CPU number information
gives users and developers more insight into which specific CPU a
particular log message came from, which can be valuable for debugging
and analysis.

The changes in this series are as follows Patches::

Patch "consolidate send buffers into netconsole_target struct"
=================================================

Move the static buffers to netconsole target, from static declaration
in send_msg_no_fragmentation() and send_msg_fragmented().

Patch "netconsole: Rename userdata to extradata"
=================================================
Create the a concept of extradata, which encompasses the concept of
userdata and the upcoming sysdatao

Sysdata is a new concept being added, which is basically fields that are
populated by the kernel. At this time only the CPU#, but, there is a
desire to add current task name, kernel release version, etc.

Patch "netconsole: Helper to count number of used entries"
===========================================================
Create a simple helper to count number of entries in extradata. I am
separating this in a function since it will need to count userdata and
sysdata. For instance, when the user adds an extra userdata, we need to
check if there is space, counting the previous data entries (from
userdata and cpu data)

Patch "Introduce configfs helpers for sysdata features"
======================================================
Create the concept of sysdata feature in the netconsole target, and
create the configfs helpers to enable the bit in nt->sysdata

Patch "Include sysdata in extradata entry count"
================================================
Add the concept of sysdata when counting for available space in the
buffer. This will protect users from creating new userdata/sysdata if
there is no more space

Patch "netconsole: add support for sysdata and CPU population"
===============================================================
This is the core patch. Basically add a new option to enable automatic
CPU number population in the netconsole userdata Provides a new "cpu_nr"
sysfs attribute to control this feature

Patch "netconsole: selftest: test CPU number auto-population"
=============================================================
Expands the existing netconsole selftest to verify the CPU number
auto-population functionality Ensures the received netconsole messages
contain the expected "cpu=<CPU>" entry in the message. Test different
permutation with userdata

Patch "netconsole: docs: Add documentation for CPU number auto-population"
=============================================================================
Updates the netconsole documentation to explain the new CPU number
auto-population feature Provides instructions on how to enable and use
the feature

I believe these changes will be a valuable addition to the netconsole
subsystem, enhancing its usefulness for kernel developers and users.

netconsole: selftest: test for sysdata CPU

Add a new selftest to verify that the netconsole module correctly

1. Basic CPU sysdata functionality - verifies that cpu=X is appended to
messages
2. CPU sysdata with userdata - ensures CPU data works alongside userdata
3. Disabled CPU sysdata - confirms no CPU data is included when disabled

The test uses taskset to control which CPU sends messages and verifies
the reported CPU matches the one used. This helps ensure that netconsole
accurately tracks and reports the originating CPU of messages.

Merge tag 'net-next-6.14' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next

Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
"This is slightly smaller than usual, with the most interesting work
being still around RTNL scope reduction.

Core:

- More core refactoring to reduce the RTNL lock contention, including
preparatory work for the per-network namespace RTNL lock, replacing
RTNL lock with a per device-one to protect NAPI-related net device
data and moving synchronize_net() calls outside such lock.

- Extend drop reasons usage, adding net scheduler, AF_UNIX, bridge
and more specific TCP coverage.

- Reduce network namespace tear-down time by removing per-subsystems
synchronize_net() in tipc and sched.

- Add flow label selector support for fib rules, allowing traffic
redirection based on such header field.

Netfilter:

- Do not remove netdev basechain when last device is gone, allowing
netdev basechains without devices.

- Revisit the flowtable teardown strategy, dealing better with fin,
reset and re-open events.

- Scale-up IP-vs connection dumping by avoiding linear search on each
restart.

Protocols:

- A significant XDP socket refactor, consolidating and optimizing
several helpers into the core

- Better scaling of ICMP rate-limiting, by removing false-sharing in
inet peers handling.

- Introduces netlink notifications for multicast IPv4 and IPv6
address changes.

- Add ipsec support for IP-TFS/AggFrag encapsulation, allowing
aggregation and fragmentation of the inner IP.

- Add sysctl to configure TIME-WAIT reuse delay for TCP sockets, to
avoid local port exhaustion issues when the average connection
lifetime is very short.

- Support updating keys (re-keying) for connections using kernel TLS
(for TLS 1.3 only).

- Support ipv4-mapped ipv6 address clients in smc-r v2.

- Add support for jumbo data packet transmission in RxRPC sockets,
gluing multiple data packets in a single UDP packet.

- Support RxRPC RACK-TLP to manage packet loss and retransmission in
conjunction with the congestion control algorithm.

Driver API:

- Introduce a unified and structured interface for reporting PHY
statistics, exposing consistent data across different H/W via
ethtool.

- Make timestamping selectable, allow the user to select the desired
hwtstamp provider (PHY or MAC) administratively.

- Add support for configuring a header-data-split threshold (HDS)
value via ethtool, to deal with partial or buggy H/W
implementation.

- Consolidate DSA drivers Energy Efficiency Ethernet support.

- Add EEE management to phylink, making use of the phylib
implementation.

- Add phylib support for in-band capabilities negotiation.

- Simplify how phylib-enabled mac drivers expose the supported
interfaces.

Tests and tooling:

- Make the YNL tool package-friendly to make it easier to deploy it
separately from the kernel.

Merge branch 'bnxt_en-implement-tcp-data-split-and-thresh-option'

Taehee Yoo says:

====================
bnxt_en: implement tcp-data-split and thresh option

This series implements hds-thresh ethtool command.
This series also implements backend of tcp-data-split and
hds-thresh ethtool command for bnxt_en driver.
These ethtool commands are mandatory options for device memory TCP.

NICs that use the bnxt_en driver support tcp-data-split feature named
HDS(header-data-split).
But there is no implementation for the HDS to enable by ethtool.
Only getting the current HDS status is implemented and the HDS is just
automatically enabled only when either LRO, HW-GRO, or JUMBO is enabled.
The hds_threshold follows the rx-copybreak value but it wasn't
changeable.

Currently, bnxt_en driver enables tcp-data-split by default but not
always work.
There is hds_threshold value, which indicates that a packet size is
larger than this value, a packet will be split into header and data.
hds_threshold value has been 256, which is a default value of
rx-copybreak value too.
The rx-copybreak value hasn't been allowed to change so the
hds_threshold too.

This patchset decouples hds_threshold and rx-copybreak first.
and make tcp-data-split, rx-copybreak, and
hds-thresh configurable independently.

But the default configuration is the same.
The default value of rx-copybreak is 256 and default
hds-thresh is also 256.

The behavior of rx-copybreak will probably be changed in almost all
drivers. If HDS is not enabled, rx-copybreak copies both header and
payload from a page.
But if HDS is enabled, rx-copybreak copies only header from the first
page.
Due to this change, it may need to disable(set to 0) rx-copybreak when
the HDS is required.

There are several related options.
TPA(HW-GRO, LRO), JUMBO, jumbo_thresh(firmware command), and Aggregation
Ring.

The aggregation ring is fundamental to these all features.
When gro/lro/jumbo packets are received, NIC receives the first packet
from the normal ring.
follow packets come from the aggregation ring.

These features are working regardless of HDS.
If HDS is enabled, the first packet contains the header only, and the
following packets contain only payload.
So, HW-GRO/LRO is working regardless of HDS.

There is another threshold value, which is jumbo_thresh.
This is very similar to hds_thresh, but jumbo thresh doesn't split
header and data.
It just split the first and following data based on length.
When NIC receives 1500 sized packet, and jumbo_thresh is 256(default, but
follows rx-copybreak),
the first data is 256 and the following packet size is 1500-256.

Before this patch, at least if one of GRO, LRO, and JUMBO flags is
enabled, the Aggregation ring will be enabled.
If the Aggregation ring is enabled, both hds_threshold and
jumbo_thresh are set to the default value of rx-copybreak.

So, GRO, LRO, JUMBO frames, they larger than 256 bytes, they will
be split into header and data if the protocol is TCP or UDP.
for the other protocol, jumbo_thresh works instead of hds_thresh.

This means that tcp-data-split relies on the GRO, LRO, and JUMBO flags.
But by this patch, tcp-data-split no longer relies on these flags.
If the tcp-data-split is enabled, the Aggregation ring will be
enabled.
Also, hds_threshold no longer follows rx-copybreak value, it will
be set to the hds-thresh value by user-space, but the
default value is still 256.

If the protocol is TCP or UDP and the HDS is disabled and Aggregation
ring is enabled, a packet will be split into several pieces due to
jumbo_thresh.

When single buffer XDP is attached, tcp-data-split is automatically
disabled.

LRO, GRO, and JUMBO are tested with BCM57414, BCM57504 and the firmware
version is 230.0.157.0.
I couldn't find any specification about minimum and maximum value
of hds_threshold, but from my test result, it was about 0 ~ 1023.
It means, over 1023 sized packets will be split into header and data if
tcp-data-split is enabled regardless of hds_treshold value.
When hds_threshold is 1500 and received packet size is 1400, HDS should
not be activated, but it is activated.
The maximum value of hds-thresh value is 256 because it
has been working. It was decided very conservatively.

I checked out the tcp-data-split(HDS) works independently of GRO, LRO,
JUMBO.
Also, I checked out tcp-data-split should be disabled automatically
when XDP is attached and disallowed to enable it again while XDP is
attached. I tested ranged values from min to max for
hds-thresh and rx-copybreak, and it works.
hds-thresh from 0 to 256, and rx-copybreak 0 to 256.
When testing this patchset, I checked skb->data, skb->data_len, and
nr_frags values.

By this patchset, bnxt_en driver supports a force enable tcp-data-split,
but it doesn't support for disable tcp-data-split.
When tcp-data-split is explicitly enabled, HDS works always.
When tcp-data-split is unknown, it depends on the current
configuration of LRO/GRO/JUMBO.

1/10 patch adds a new hds_config member in the ethtool_netdev_state.
It indicates that what tcp-data-split value is really updated from
userspace.
So the driver can distinguish a passed tcp-data-split value is
came from user or driver itself.

2/10 patch adds hds-thresh command in the ethtool.
This threshold value indicates if a received packet size is larger
than this threshold, the packet's header and payload will be split.
Example:
# ethtool -G <interface name> hds-thresh <value>
This option can not be used when tcp-data-split is disabled or not
supported.
# ethtool -G enp14s0f0np0 tcp-data-split on hds-thresh 256
# ethtool -g enp14s0f0np0
Ring parameters for enp14s0f0np0:
Pre-set maximums:
...
Current hardware settings:
...
TCP data split: on
HDS thresh: 256

3/10, 4/10 add condition checks for devmem and ethtool.
If tcp-data-split is disabled or threshold value is not zero, setup of
devmem will be failed.
Also, tcp-data-split and hds-thresh will not be changed
while devmem is running.

5/10 add condition checks for netdev core.
It disallows setup single buffer XDP program when tcp-data-split is
enabled.

6/10 patch implements .{set, get}_tunable() in the bnxt_en.
The bnxt_en driver has been supporting the rx-copybreak feature but is
not configurable, Only the default rx-copybreak value has been working.
So, it changes the bnxt_en driver to be able to configure
the rx-copybreak value.

7/10 patch adds an implementation of tcp-data-split ethtool
command.
The HDS relies on the Aggregation ring, which is automatically enabled
when either LRO, GRO, or large mtu is configured.
So, if the Aggregation ring is enabled, HDS is automatically enabled by
it.

8/10 patch adds the implementation of hds-thresh logic
in the bnxt_en driver.
The default value is 256, which used to be the default rx-copybreak
value.

9/10 add HDS feature implementation for netdevsim.
HDS feature is not common so far. Only a few NICs support this feature.
There is no way to test HDS core-API unless we have proper hw NIC.
In order to test HDS core-API without hw NIC, netdevsim can be used.
It implements HDS control and data plane for netdevsim.

10/10 add selftest for HDS(tcp-data-split and HDS-thresh).
The tcp-data-split tests are the same with
`ethtool -G tcp-data-split <on | auto>`
HDS-thresh tests are same with `ethtool -G eth0 hds-thresh <0 - MAX>`

This series is tested with BCM57504 and netdevsim.

HDS/HDS-thresh features were updated/implemented. so add some tests for
these features.

HDS tests are the same with `ethtool -G eth0 tcp-data-split <on | off |
auto >` but `auto` depends on driver specification.
So, it doesn't include `auto` case.

HDS-thresh tests are same with `ethtool -G eth0 hds-thresh <0 - MAX>`
It includes both 0 and MAX cases. It also includes exceed case, MAX + 1.

====================
netconsole: selftest for userdata overflow

Implement comprehensive testing for netconsole userdata entry handling,
demonstrating correct behavior when creating maximum entries and
preventing unauthorized overflow.

Refactor existing test infrastructure to support modular, reusable
helper functions that validate strict entry limit enforcement.

Also, add a warning if update_userdata() sees more than
MAX_USERDATA_ITEMS entries. This shouldn't happen and it is a bug that
shouldn't be silently ignored.

Add a new selftest for netconsole that tests the userdata entry limit
functionality. The test performs two key verifications:

1. Create MAX_USERDATA_ITEMS (16) userdata entries successfully
2. Confirm that attempting to create an additional userdata entry fails

The selftest script uses the netcons library and checks the behavior
by attempting to create entries beyond the maximum allowed limit.

Split helper functions from the netconsole basic test into a separate

change only moves the existing helper functions to lib/sh/lib_netcons.sh
while preserving the same test functionality.

The helpers provide common functions for:
- Setting up network namespaces and interfaces
- Managing netconsole dynamic targets
- Setting user data
- Handling test dependencies
- Cleanup operations
