Merge tag 'net-next-6.19' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next

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

- Replace busylock at the Tx queuing layer with a lockless list.

Resulting in a 300% (4x) improvement on heavy TX workloads, sending
twice the number of packets per second, for half the cpu cycles.

- Allow constantly busy flows to migrate to a more suitable CPU/NIC
queue.

Normally we perform queue re-selection when flow comes out of idle,
but under extreme circumstances the flows may be constantly busy.

Add sysctl to allow periodic rehashing even if it'd risk packet
reordering.

- Optimize the NAPI skb cache, make it larger, use it in more paths.

- Attempt returning Tx skbs to the originating CPU (like we already
did for Rx skbs).

- Various data structure layout and prefetch optimizations from Eric.

- Remove ktime_get() from the recvmsg() fast path, ktime_get() is
sadly quite expensive on recent AMD machines.

- Extend threaded NAPI polling to allow the kthread busy poll for
packets.

- Make MPTCP use Rx backlog processing. This lowers the lock
pressure, improving the Rx performance.

- Support memcg accounting of MPTCP socket memory.

- Allow admin to opt sockets out of global protocol memory accounting
(using a sysctl or BPF-based policy). The global limits are a poor
fit for modern container workloads, where limits are imposed using
cgroups.

- Improve heuristics for when to kick off AF_UNIX garbage collection.

- Allow users to control TCP SACK compression, and default to 33% of
RTT.

- Add tcp_rcvbuf_low_rtt sysctl to let datacenter users avoid
unnecessarily aggressive rcvbuf growth and overshot when the
connection RTT is low.

- Preserve skb metadata space across skb_push / skb_pull operations.

- Support for IPIP encapsulation in the nftables flowtable offload.

- Support appending IP interface information to ICMP messages (RFC
5837).

- Support setting max record size in TLS (RFC 8449).

- Remove taking rtnl_lock from RTM_GETNEIGHTBL and RTM_SETNEIGHTBL.

- Use a dedicated lock (and RCU) in MPLS, instead of rtnl_lock.

- Let users configure the number of write buffers in SMC.

- Add new struct sockaddr_unsized for sockaddr of unknown length,
from Kees.

- Some conversions away from the crypto_ahash API, from Eric Biggers.

- Some preparations for slimming down struct page.

- YAML Netlink protocol spec for WireGuard.

- Add a tool on top of YAML Netlink specs/lib for reporting commonly
computed derived statistics and summarized system state.

Driver API:

- Add CAN XL support to the CAN Netlink interface.

- Add uAPI for reporting PHY Mean Square Error (MSE) diagnostics, as
defined by the OPEN Alliance's "Advanced diagnostic features for
100BASE-T1 automotive Ethernet PHYs" specification.

- Add DPLL phase-adjust-gran pin attribute (and implement it in
zl3073x).

- Refactor xfrm_input lock to reduce contention when NIC offloads
IPsec and performs RSS.

- Add info to devlink params whether the current setting is the
default or a user override. Allow resetting back to default.

- Add standard device stats for PSP crypto offload.

- Leverage DSA frame broadcast to implement simple HSR frame
duplication for a lot of switches without dedicated HSR offload.

- Add uAPI defines for 1.6Tbps link modes.

Device drivers:

- Add Motorcomm YT921x gigabit Ethernet switch support.

- Add MUCSE driver for N500/N210 1GbE NIC series.

- Convert drivers to support dedicated ops for timestamping control,
and away from the direct IOCTL handling. While at it support GET
operations for PHY timestamping.

- Add (and convert most drivers to) a dedicated ethtool callback for
reading the Rx ring count.

- Significant refactoring efforts in the STMMAC driver, which
supports Synopsys turn-key MAC IP integrated into a ton of SoCs.
