Hi,
This patch series fixes a panic reported by syzkaller in the team/bond/gre stacked non-Ethernet configuration: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=3d8bc31c45e11450f24c
The first patch fixes the header_ops type confusion / parse recursion context issue in team. The second patch adds a selftest to reproduce the reported scenario and prevent regressions in the future.

Add a team selftest that sets up: g0 (gre) -> b0 (bond) -> t0 (team)
and triggers IPv6 traffic on t0. This reproduces the non-Ethernet header_ops confusion scenario and protects against regressions in stacked team/bond/gre configurations.
Using this script, the panic reported by syzkaller can be reproduced [1].
After the fix:

Merge branch 'team-fix-reference-count-leak-when-changing-port-netns'
Ido Schimmel says:
==================== team: Fix reference count leak when changing port netns
Patch #1 fixes a reference count leak that was reported by syzkaller. The leak happens when a net device that is member in a team is changing netns. The fix is to align the team driver with the bond driver and have it suppress NETDEV_CHANGEMTU events for a net device that is being unregistered.
Without this change, the NETDEV_CHANGEMTU event causes inetdev_event() to recreate an inet device for this net device in its original netns, after it was previously destroyed upon NETDEV_UNREGISTER. Later on, when inetdev_event() receives a NETDEV_REGISTER event for this net device in the new nents, it simply leaks the reference:
case NETDEV_REGISTER: pr_debug("%s: bug\n", __func__); RCU_INIT_POINTER(dev->ip_ptr, NULL); break;
addrconf_notify() handles this differently and reuses the existing inet6 device if one exists when a NETDEV_REGISTER event is received. This creates a different problem where it is possible for a net device to reference an inet6 device that was created in a previous netns.
A more generic fix that we can try in net-next is to revert the changes in the bond and team drivers and instead have IPv4 and IPv6 destroy and recreate an inet device if one already exists upon NETDEV_REGISTER.
Patch #2 adds a selftest that passes with the fix and hangs without it. ====================

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 virtual: - Macsec: - replace custom netlink attribute checks with policy-level checks - Bonding: - support aggregator selection based on port priority - Microsoft vNIC: - use page pool fragments for RX buffers instead of full pages to improve memory efficiency
- Ethernet NICs consumer, and embedded: - Qualcomm: support Ethernet function for IPQ9574 SoC - Airoha: implement wlan offloading via NPU - Freescale - enetc: add NETC timer PTP driver and add PTP support - fec: enable the Jumbo frame support for i.MX8QM - Renesas (R-Car S4): - support HW offloading for layer 2 switching - support for RZ/{T2H, N2H} SoCs - Cadence (macb): support TAPRIO traffic scheduling - TI: - support for Gigabit ICSS ethernet SoC (icssm-prueth) - Synopsys (stmmac): a lot of cleanups
- Ethernet PHYs: - Support 10g-qxgmi phy-mode for AQR412C, Felix DSA and Lynx PCS driver - Support bcm63268 GPHY power control - Support for Micrel lan8842 PHY and PTP - Support for Aquantia AQR412 and AQR115
- CAN: - a large CAN-XL preparation work - reorganize raw_sock and uniqframe struct to minimize memory usage - rcar_canfd: update the CAN-FD handling
- WiFi: - extended Neighbor Awareness Networking (NAN) support - S1G channel representation cleanup - improve S1G support
- WiFi drivers: - Intel (iwlwifi): - major refactor and cleanup - Broadcom (brcm80211): - support for AP isolation - RealTek (rtw88/89) rtw88/89: - preparation work for RTL8922DE support - MediaTek (mt76): - HW restart improvements - MLO support - Qualcomm/Atheros (ath10k): - GTK rekey fixes
- Bluetooth drivers: - btusb: support for several new IDs for MT7925 - btintel: support for BlazarIW core - btintel_pcie: support for _suspend() / _resume() - btintel_pcie: support for Scorpious, Panther Lake-H484 IDs"

selftests: net: Add tests to verify team driver option set and get.
There are currently no kernel tests that verify setting and getting options of the team driver.
In the future, options may be added that implicitly change other options, which will make it useful to have tests like these that show nothing breaks. There will be a follow up patch to this that adds new "rx_enabled" and "tx_enabled" options, which will implicitly affect the "enabled" option value and vice versa.
The tests use teamnl to first set options to specific values and then gets them to compare to the set values.
