Merge tag 'net-7.1-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/netPull networking fixes from Jakub Kicinski: "Including fixes from Netfilter. Steady stream of fixes. Last two weeks feel comparable to the two weeks before the merge window. Lots of AI-aided bug discovery. A newer big source is Sashiko/Gemini (Roman Gushchin's system), which points out issues in existing code during patch review (maybe 25% of fixes here likely originating from Sashiko). Nice thing is these are often fixed by the respective maintainers, not drive-bys. Current release - new code bugs: - kconfig: MDIO_PIC64HPSC should depend on ARCH_MICROCHIP Previous releases - regressions: - add async ndo_set_rx_mode and switch drivers which we promised to be called under the per-netdev mutex to it - dsa: remove duplicate netdev_lock_ops() for conduit ethtool ops - hv_sock: report EOF instead of -EIO for FIN - vsock/virtio: fix MSG_PEEK calculation on bytes to copy Previous releases - always broken: - ipv6: fix possible UAF in icmpv6_rcv() - icmp: validate reply type before using icmp_pointers - af_unix: drop all SCM attributes for SOCKMAP - netfilter: fix a number of bugs in the osf (OS fingerprinting) - eth: intel: fix timestamp interrupt configuration for E825C Misc: - bunch of data-race annotations"* tag 'net-7.1-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net: (148 commits) rxrpc: Fix error handling in rxgk_extract_token() rxrpc: Fix re-decryption of RESPONSE packets rxrpc: Fix rxrpc_input_call_event() to only unshare DATA packets rxrpc: Fix missing validation of ticket length in non-XDR key preparsing rxgk: Fix potential integer overflow in length check rxrpc: Fix conn-level packet handling to unshare RESPONSE packets rxrpc: Fix potential UAF after skb_unshare() failure rxrpc: Fix rxkad crypto unalignment handling rxrpc: Fix memory leaks in rxkad_verify_response() net: rds: fix MR cleanup on copy error m68k: mvme147: Make me the maintainer net: txgbe: fix firmware version check selftests/bpf: check epoll readiness during reuseport migration tcp: call sk_data_ready() after listener migration vhost_net: fix sleeping with preempt-disabled in vhost_net_busy_poll() ipv6: Cap TLV scan in ip6_tnl_parse_tlv_enc_lim tipc: fix double-free in tipc_buf_append() llc: Return -EINPROGRESS from llc_ui_connect() ipv4: icmp: validate reply type before using icmp_pointers selftests/net: packetdrill: cover RFC 5961 5.2 challenge ACK on both edges ...

Tue, 14 Apr 2026 12:30:47 +0200

net: mdio: MDIO_PIC64HPSC should depend on ARCH_MICROCHIPThe PIC64-HPSC/HX MDIO interface is only present on MicrochipPIC64-HPSC/HX SoCs. Hence add a dependency on ARCH_MICROCHIP, toprevent asking the user about this driver when configuring a kernelwithout Microchip SoC support.Fixes: f76aef980206e7c6 ("net: mdio: add a driver for PIC64-HPSC/HX MDIO controller")Signed-off-by: Geert Uytterhoeven Reviewed-by: Charles Perry Reviewed-by: Simon Horman Link: https://patch.msgid.link/980c57efa5843733ef95459c3283aebade56f142.1776162544.git.geert+renesas@glider.beSigned-off-by: Jakub Kicinski List of files: /linux/drivers/net/mdio/Kconfig

Merge tag 'net-next-7.1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-nextPull 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 Drivers - Software: - macvlan: support multicast rx for bridge ports with shared source MAC address - team: decouple receive and transmit enablement for IEEE 802.3ad LACP "independent control" - Ethernet high-speed NICs: - nVidia/Mellanox: - support high order pages in zero-copy mode (for payload coalescing) - support multiple packets in a page (for systems with 64kB pages) - Broadcom 25-400GE (bnxt): - implement XDP RSS hash metadata extraction - add software fallback for UDP GSO, lowering the IOMMU cost - Broadcom 800GE (bnge): - add link status and configuration handling - add various HW and SW statistics - Marvell/Cavium: - NPC HW block support for cn20k - Huawei (hinic3): - add mailbox / control queue - add rx VLAN offload - add driver info and link management - Ethernet NICs: - Marvell/Aquantia: - support reading SFP module info on some AQC100 cards - Realtek PCI (r8169): - add support for RTL8125cp - Realtek USB (r8152): - support for the RTL8157 5Gbit chip - add 2500baseT EEE status/configuration support - Ethernet NICs embedded and off-the-shelf IP: - Synopsys (stmmac): - cleanup and reorganize SerDes handling and PCS support - cleanup descriptor handling and per-platform data - cleanup and consolidate MDIO defines and handling - shrink driver memory use for internal structures - improve Tx IRQ coalescing - improve TCP segmentation handling - add support for Spacemit K3 - Cadence (macb): - support PHYs that have inband autoneg disabled with GEM - support IEEE 802.3az EEE - rework usrio capabilities and handling - AMD (xgbe): - improve power management for S0i3 - improve TX resilience for link-down handling - Virtual: - Google cloud vNIC: - support larger ring sizes in DQO-QPL mode - improve HW-GRO handling - support UDP GSO for DQO format - PCIe NTB: - support queue count configuration - Ethernet PHYs: - automatically disable PHY autonomous EEE if MAC is in charge - Broadcom: - add BCM84891/BCM84892 support - Micrel: - support for LAN9645X internal PHY - Realtek: - add RTL8224 pair order support - support PHY LEDs on RTL8211F-VD - support spread spectrum clocking (SSC) - Maxlinear: - add PHY-level statistics via ethtool - Ethernet switches: - Maxlinear (mxl862xx): - support for bridge offloading - support for VLANs - support driver statistics - Bluetooth: - large number of fixes and new device IDs - Mediatek: - support MT6639 (MT7927) - support MT7902 SDIO - WiFi: - Intel (iwlwifi): - UNII-9 and continuing UHR work - MediaTek (mt76): - mt7996/mt7925 MLO fixes/improvements - mt7996 NPU support (HW eth/wifi traffic offload) - Qualcomm (ath12k): - monitor mode support on IPQ5332 - basic hwmon temperature reporting - support IPQ5424 - Realtek: - add USB RX aggregation to improve performance - add USB TX flow control by tracking in-flight URBs - Cellular: - IPA v5.2 support"* tag 'net-next-7.1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next: (1561 commits) net: pse-pd: fix kernel-doc function name for pse_control_find_by_id() wireguard: device: use exit_rtnl callback instead of manual rtnl_lock in pre_exit wireguard: allowedips: remove redundant space tools: ynl: add sample for wireguard wireguard: allowedips: Use kfree_rcu() instead of call_rcu() MAINTAINERS: Add netkit selftest files selftests/net: Add additional test coverage in nk_qlease selftests/net: Split netdevsim tests from HW tests in nk_qlease tools/ynl: Make YnlFamily closeable as a context manager net: airoha: Add missing PPE configurations in airoha_ppe_hw_init() net: airoha: Fix VIP configuration for AN7583 SoC net: caif: clear client service pointer on teardown net: strparser: fix skb_head leak in strp_abort_strp() net: usb: cdc-phonet: fix skb frags[] overflow in rx_complete() selftests/bpf: add test for xdp_master_redirect with bond not up net, bpf: fix null-ptr-deref in xdp_master_redirect() for down master net: airoha: Remove PCE_MC_EN_MASK bit in REG_FE_PCE_CFG configuration sctp: disable BH before calling udp_tunnel_xmit_skb() sctp: fix missing encap_port propagation for GSO fragments net: airoha: Rely on net_device pointer in ETS callbacks ...

Merge branch 'add-support-for-pic64-hpsc-hx-mdio-controller'Charles Perry says:====================Add support for PIC64-HPSC/HX MDIO controllerThis series adds a driver for the two MDIO controllers of PIC64-HPSC/HX.The hardware supports C22 and C45 but only C22 is implemented for now.This MDIO hardware is based on a Microsemi design supported in Linux bymdio-mscc-miim.c. However, The register interface is completely differentwith pic64hpsc, hence the need for a separate driver.The documentation recommends an input clock of 156.25MHz and a prescaler of39, which yields an MDIO clock of 1.95MHz.This was tested on Microchip HB1301 evalkit which has a VSC8574 and aVSC8541. I've tested with bus frequencies of 0.6, 1.95 and 2.5 MHz.This series also adds a PHY write barrier when disabling PHY interrupts asdiscussed in: https://lore.kernel.org/acvUqDgepCIScs8M@shell.armlinux.org.uk====================Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260408131821.1145334-1-charles.perry@microchip.comSigned-off-by: Jakub Kicinski List of files: /linux/drivers/net/mdio/Kconfig
