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

- Support HW queue leasing, allowing containers to be granted access
to HW queues for zero-copy operations and AF_XDP

- Number of code moves to help the compiler with inlining. Avoid
output arguments for returning drop reason where possible

- Rework drop handling within qdiscs to include more metadata about
the reason and dropping qdisc in the tracepoints

- Remove the rtnl_lock use from IP Multicast Routing

- Pack size information into the Rx Flow Steering table pointer
itself. This allows making the table itself a flat array of u32s,
thus making the table allocation size a power of two

- Report TCP delayed ack timer information via socket diag

- Add ip_local_port_step_width sysctl to allow distributing the
randomly selected ports more evenly throughout the allowed space

- Add support for per-route tunsrc in IPv6 segment routing

- Start work of switching sockopt handling to iov_iter

- Improve dynamic recvbuf sizing in MPTCP, limit burstiness and avoid
buffer size drifting up

- Support MSG_EOR in MPTCP

- Add stp_mode attribute to the bridge driver for STP mode selection.
This addresses concerns about call_usermodehelper() usage

- Remove UDP-Lite support (as announced in 2023)

- Remove support for building IPv6 as a module. Remove the now
unnecessary function calling indirection

Cross-tree stuff:

- Move Michael MIC code from generic crypto into wireless, it's
considered insecure but some WiFi networks still need it

Netfilter:

- Switch nft_fib_ipv6 module to no longer need temporary dst_entry
object allocations by using fib6_lookup() + RCU.

Florian W reports this gets us ~13% higher packet rate

- Convert IPVS's global __ip_vs_mutex to per-net service_mutex and
switch the service tables to be per-net. Convert some code that
walks the service lists to use RCU instead of the service_mutex

- Add more opinionated input validation to lower security exposure

- Make IPVS hash tables to be per-netns and resizable

Wireless:

- Finished assoc frame encryption/EPPKE/802.1X-over-auth

- Radar detection improvements

- Add 6 GHz incumbent signal detection APIs

- Multi-link support for FILS, probe response templates and client
probing

- New APIs and mac80211 support for NAN (Neighbor Aware Networking,
aka Wi-Fi Aware) so less work must be in firmware

Driver API:

- Add numerical ID for devlink instances (to avoid having to create
fake bus/device pairs just to have an ID). Support shared devlink
instances which span multiple PFs

- Add standard counters for reporting pause storm events (implement
in mlx5 and fbnic)

- Add configuration API for completion writeback buffering (implement
in mana)

- Support driver-initiated change of RSS context sizes

- Support DPLL monitoring input frequency (implement in zl3073x)

- Support per-port resources in devlink (implement in mlx5)

Misc:

- Expand the YAML spec for Netfilter

====================
macsec: Add support for VLAN filtering in offload mode

This short series adds support for VLANs in MACsec devices when offload
mode is enabled. This allows VLAN netdevs on top of MACsec netdevs to
function, which accidentally used to be the case in the past, but was
broken. This series adds back proper support.

As part of this, the existing nsim-only MACsec offload tests were
translated to Python so they can run against real HW and new
traffic-based tests were added for VLAN filter propagation, since
there's currently no uAPI to check VLAN filters.

Move MACsec offload API and ethtool feature tests from
tools/testing/selftests/drivers/net/netdevsim/macsec-offload.sh to
tools/testing/selftests/drivers/net/macsec.py using the NetDrvEnv
framework so tests can run against both netdevsim (default) and real
hardware (NETIF=ethX). As some real hardware requires MACsec to use
encryption, add that to the tests.

Netdevsim-specific limit checks (max SecY, max RX SC) were moved into
separate test cases to avoid failures on real hardware.

Merge tag 'net-next-7.0' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next

Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
"Core & protocols:

- A significant effort all around the stack to guide the compiler to
make the right choice when inlining code, to avoid unneeded calls
for small helper and stack canary overhead in the fast-path.

This generates better and faster code with very small or no text
size increases, as in many cases the call generated more code than
the actual inlined helper.

- Extend AccECN implementation so that is now functionally complete,
also allow the user-space enabling it on a per network namespace
basis.

- Add support for memory providers with large (above 4K) rx buffer.
Paired with hw-gro, larger rx buffer sizes reduce the number of
buffers traversing the stack, dincreasing single stream CPU usage
by up to ~30%.

- Do not add HBH header to Big TCP GSO packets. This simplifies the
RX path, the TX path and the NIC drivers, and is possible because
user-space taps can now interpret correctly such packets without
the HBH hint.

- Allow IPv6 routes to be configured with a gateway address that is
resolved out of a different interface than the one specified,
aligning IPv6 to IPv4 behavior.

- Multi-queue aware sch_cake. This makes it possible to scale the
rate shaper of sch_cake across multiple CPUs, while still enforcing
a single global rate on the interface.

- Add support for the nbcon (new buffer console) infrastructure to
netconsole, enabling lock-free, priority-based console operations
that are safer in crash scenarios.

- Improve the TCP ipv6 output path to cache the flow information,
saving cpu cycles, reducing cache line misses and stack use.

- Improve netfilter packet tracker to resolve clashes for most
protocols, avoiding unneeded drops on rare occasions.

- Add IP6IP6 tunneling acceleration to the flowtable infrastructure.

- Reduce tcp socket size by one cache line.

- Notify neighbour changes atomically, avoiding inconsistencies
between the notification sequence and the actual states sequence.

- Add vsock namespace support, allowing complete isolation of vsocks
across different network namespaces.

- Improve xsk generic performances with cache-alignment-oriented
optimizations.

- Support netconsole automatic target recovery, allowing netconsole
to reestablish targets when underlying low-level interface comes
back online.

Driver API:

- Support for switching the working mode (automatic vs manual) of a
DPLL device via netlink.

- Introduce PHY ports representation to expose multiple front-facing
media ports over a single MAC.

- Introduce "rx-polarity" and "tx-polarity" device tree properties,
to generalize polarity inversion requirements for differential
signaling.

- Add helper to create, prepare and enable managed clocks.

Device drivers:

- Add Huawei hinic3 PF etherner driver.

- Add DWMAC glue driver for Motorcomm YT6801 PCIe ethernet
controller.

- Add ethernet driver for MaxLinear MxL862xx switches

- Remove parallel-port Ethernet driver.

- Convert existing driver timestamp configuration reporting to
hwtstamp_get and remove legacy ioctl().

- Convert existing drivers to .get_rx_ring_count(), simplifing the RX
ring count retrieval. Also remove the legacy fallback path.

netconsole: selftests: Move netconsole selftests to separate target

This patch moves netconsole selftests from drivers/net to its own target
in drivers/net/netconsole.

This change helps saving some resources from CI since tests in
drivers/net automatically run against real hardware which are not used
by netconsole tests as they rely solely on netdevsim.

lib_netcons.sh is kept under drivers/net/lib since it is also used by
bonding selftests. Finally, drivers/net config remains unchanged as
netpoll_basic.py requires netconsole (and does leverage real HW testing).

Merge branch 'netconsole-support-automatic-target-recovery'

Andre Carvalho says:

====================
netconsole: support automatic target recovery

This patchset introduces target resume capability to netconsole allowing
it to recover targets when underlying low-level interface comes back
online.

The patchset starts by refactoring netconsole state representation in
order to allow representing deactivated targets (targets that are
disabled due to interfaces unregister).

It then modifies netconsole to handle NETDEV_REGISTER events for such
targets, setups netpoll and forces the device UP. Targets are matched with
incoming interfaces depending on how they were bound in netconsole
(by mac or interface name). For these reasons, we also attempt resuming
on NETDEV_CHANGENAME.

The patchset includes a selftest that validates netconsole target state
transitions and that target is functional after resumed.

selftests: netconsole: validate target resume

Introduce a new netconsole selftest to validate that netconsole is able
to resume a deactivated target when the low level interface comes back.

The test setups the network using netdevsim, creates a netconsole target
and then remove/add netdevsim in order to bring the same interfaces
back. Afterwards, the test validates that the target works as expected.

Targets are created via cmdline parameters to the module to ensure that
we are able to resume targets that were bound by mac and interface name.
