Thu, 20 Aug 2026 17:16:04 +0200

Merge tag 'net-next-7.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-nextPull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski: "One of the 'small improvements all over the place' releases for us. It's hard to draw any direct comparisons because summer vacations disrupted our patch processing (and presumably - generation) quite a bit. Quick and dirty count suggests we (Paolo and I) merged a very similar number of net (632) and net-next (648) patches. This is not telling the full story either because 1/3 to 1/2 of the net-next patches also *seem* like AI-driven low priority fixes, cleanups and clarifications. We are completely overwhelmed, of course. The glimmer of hope is that we secured sufficient LLM budget and access (thank you Meta!) to run reviews with multiple frontier models on each patch. This eliminates some hallucinations. That said, in terms of review, the LLMs can only do so much. The sad truth is that our APIs (especially for rare events like PCIe errors, timeouts etc) have always been racy, and now LLMs don't let us ignore that. I expect our direction for the next release will be to tweak the reviews a little bit more, but start shifting focus to letting the LLMs take care of the busy work - managing patchwork, automating common process complaints, editing commit messages, and maybe applying patches which already got "reviewed-by" tags from people we trust... Core & protocols: - A few steps lowering rtnl_lock dependence: - per-netns netdev unregistration for select SW drivers (e.g. veth, ipvlan, tunnels) - rtnl_lock-less FIB rule changes (RTM_NEWRULE and RTM_DELRULE) - prepare software drivers and TC qdiscs for rtnl_lock-less GET - Support BIG TCP (>64kB TSO) in UDP tunnels (vxlan, geneve) - Support buffers larger than PAGE_SIZE in devmem zero-copy API - Improve MPTCP handling of extreme memory pressure handling, when out-of-order queue had to be pruned - Report the per-group user count via RTM_GETMULTICAST - Expose the route deletion reason in RTM_DELROUTE - Add a SO_RIGHTS_NOTRUNC option to UNIX sockets to enable more useful handling of LSM denials when receiving SCM_RIGHTS messages: instead of truncating the message at the first blocked fd, keep every fd slot and store the LSM errno in the blocked slot - IPv6 Segment Routing - support looking up the post-encap SID (address) in a different/specified routing table - Support PRP RedBox (interlink) creation - Support per-nexthop UDP dst port in VXLAN - Continue converting getsockopt callbacks in a number of protocols to iov_iter Ethernet: -

Sat, 08 Aug 2026 18:00:44 +0200

selftests: drv-net: so_txtime: only send test traffic to sch_etfThe ETF qdiscs drops traffic without a socket or txtime. Even withparameter skip_sock_check regular traffic is affected by ETF.This test ran fine when run manually in a pure software environment.But with drv-net across two hosts tests fail as early as when callingcfg.remote.deploy due to effectively losing connectivity.Isolate the intended test traffic:- mark that with SO_MARK 100- install a regular permissive root prio qdisc for background traffic- install the ETF qdisc as leaf- install a filter that only directs SO_MARK 100 traffic to this leafTechnically other high prio traffic will map onto this leaf based onToS band mapping too.

c98610c2eb7002436f6fca55b21c63200644549a - selftests: drv-net: Test queue stall upon reconfig

Fri, 31 Jul 2026 04:15:42 +0200

selftests: drv-net: Test queue stall upon reconfigAdd a reconfig_tx_stall test that detects the possibility of a TX stallafter ring reconfiguration. The key observation is that drivers usingnetif_tx_start_all_queues() are prone to experiencing a stall whenreconfiguration completes compared to drivers usingnetif_tx_wake_all_queues(). start_all_queues only clears DRV_XOFF, whilewake_all_queues also calls __netif_schedule() to kick the qdisc. Withoutthe kick, qdisc backlog present at reconfig time can stay stuck until anew trigger is issued.The test caps the TX ring at 64 entries so it fills quickly, theninstalls FQ on a target TX queue and sends UDP packets with SO_TXTIMEscheduled in the future. With napi_defer_hard_irqs slowing completions,the small ring can fill when FQ releases the burst, leaving requeuedqdisc backlog with no FQ timer to rescue it. A subsequent ring reconfigmust wake the queues to drain the backlog. Simply starting the queues canleave it stuck.Some drivers lack backpressure on the TX path and may not be able tobuild up the qdisc backlog the test relies on. In that case report anexpected failure (xfail) instead of a hard failure.Testing on some of the existing drivers: Driver-A does not have the bug,Driver-B has the bug, Driver-C had the bug but it is fixed now.Driver-A:./drivers/net/ring_reconfig.py -t reconfig_tx_stallTAP version 131..1 Sent 1024 SO_TXTIME packets (+100ms) Backlog before reconfig: 1176378 bytesok 1 ring_reconfig.reconfig_tx_stall Totals: pass:1 fail:0 xfail:0 xpass:0 skip:0 error:0Driver-B:TAP version 131..1 Sent 128 SO_TXTIME packets (+100ms) Sent 128 SO_TXTIME packets (+200ms) Backlog before reconfig: 148372 bytes Check| At ./drivers/net/ring_reconfig.py, line 397, in reconfig_tx_stall: Check| ksft_eq(0, backlog, Check failed 0 != 148372 qdisc backlog stuck on queue 1 after ring ....not ok 1 ring_reconfig.reconfig_tx_stall Totals: pass:0 fail:1 xfail:0 xpass:0 skip:0 error:0Driver-C:TAP version 131..1 Sent 128 SO_TXTIME packets (+100ms) Backlog before reconfig: 192278 bytesok 1 ring_reconfig.reconfig_tx_stall Totals: pass:1 fail:0 xfail:0 xpass:0 skip:0 error:0Signed-off-by: Mohsin Bashir Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260731021543.1058526-1-mohsin.bashr@gmail.comSigned-off-by: Jakub Kicinski List of files: /linux/tools/testing/selftests/drivers/net/config
