Merge tag 'net-next-6.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-nextgrafted
Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski: "Core: - Add dedicated kmem_cache for typical/small skb->head, avoid having to access struct page at kfree time, and improve memory use. - Introduce sysctl to set default RPS configuration for new netdevs. - Define Netlink protocol specification format which can be used to describe messages used by each family and auto-generate parsers. Add tools for generating kernel data structures and uAPI headers. - Expose all net/core sysctls inside netns. - Remove 4s sleep in netpoll if carrier is instantly detected on boot. - Add configurable limit of MDB entries per port, and port-vlan. - Continue populating drop reasons throughout the stack. - Retire a handful of legacy Qdiscs and classifiers. Protocols: - Support IPv4 big TCP (TSO frames larger than 64kB). - Add IP_LOCAL_PORT_RANGE socket option, to control local port range on socket by socket basis. - Track and report in procfs number of MPTCP sockets used. - Support mixing IPv4 and IPv6 flows in the in-kernel MPTCP path manager. - IPv6: don't check net.ipv6.route.max_size and rely on garbage collection to free memory (similarly to IPv4). - Support Penultimate Segment Pop (PSP) flavor in SRv6 (RFC8986). - ICMP: add per-rate limit counters. - Add support for user scanning requests in ieee802154. - Remove static WEP support. - Support minimal Wi-Fi 7 Extremely High Throughput (EHT) rate reporting. - WiFi 7 EHT channel puncturing support (client & AP). BPF: - Add a rbtree data structure following the "next-gen data structure" precedent set by recently added linked list, that is, by using kfunc + kptr instead of adding a new BPF map type. - Expose XDP hints via kfuncs with initial support for RX hash and timestamp metadata. - Add BPF_F_NO_TUNNEL_KEY extension to bpf_skb_set_tunnel_key to better support decap on GRE tunnel devices not operating in collect metadata. - Improve x86 JIT's codegen for PROBE_MEM runtime error checks. - Remove the need for trace_printk_lock for bpf_trace_printk and bpf_trace_vprintk helpers. - Extend libbpf's bpf_tracing.h support for tracing arguments of kprobes/uprobes and syscall as a special case. - Significantly reduce the search time for module symbols by livepatch and BPF. - Enable cpumasks to be used as kptrs, which is useful for tracing programs tracking which tasks end up running on which CPUs in different time intervals. - Add support for BPF trampoline on s390x and riscv64. - Add capability to export the XDP features supported by the NIC. - Add __bpf_kfunc tag for marking kernel functions as kfuncs. - Add cgroup.memory=nobpf kernel parameter option to disable BPF memory accounting for container environments. Netfilter: - Remove the CLUSTERIP target. It has been marked as obsolete for years, and we still have WARN splats wrt races of the out-of-band /proc interface installed by this target. - Add 'destroy' commands to nf_tables. They are identical to the existing 'delete' commands, but do not return an error if the referenced object (set, chain, rule...) did not exist. Driver API: - Improve cpumask_local_spread() locality to help NICs set the right IRQ affinity on AMD platforms. - Separate C22 and C45 MDIO bus transactions more clearly. - Introduce new DCB table to control DSCP rewrite on egress. - Support configuration of Physical Layer Collision Avoidance (PLCA) Reconciliation Sublayer (RS) (802.3cg-2019). Modern version of shared medium Ethernet. - Support for MAC Merge layer (IEEE 802.3-2018 clause 99). Allowing preemption of low priority frames by high priority frames. - Add support for controlling MACSec offload using netlink SET. - Rework devlink instance refcounts to allow registration and de-registration under the instance lock. Split the code into multiple files, drop some of the unnecessarily granular locks and factor out common parts of netlink operation handling. - Add TX frame aggregation parameters (for USB drivers). - Add a new attr TCA_EXT_WARN_MSG to report TC (offload) warning messages with notifications for debug. - Allow offloading of UDP NEW connections via act_ct. - Add support for per action HW stats in TC. - Support hardware miss to TC action (continue processing in SW from a specific point in the action chain). - Warn if old Wireless Extension user space interface is used with modern cfg80211/mac80211 drivers. Do not support Wireless Extensions for Wi-Fi 7 devices at all. Everyone should switch to using nl80211 interface instead. - Improve the CAN bit timing configuration. Use extack to return error messages directly to user space, update the SJW handling, including the definition of a new default value that will benefit CAN-FD controllers, by increasing their oscillator tolerance.

+PCI Test User Guide
+===================
+
+:Author: Kishon Vijay Abraham I <kishon@ti.com>
+
+This document is a guide to help users use pci-epf-test function driver
+and pci_endpoint_test host driver for testing PCI. The list of steps to
+be followed in the host side and EP side is given below.
+
+Endpoint Device
+===============
+
+Endpoint Controller Devices
+---------------------------
+
+To find the list of endpoint controller devices in the system::
+
+ # ls /sys/class/pci_epc/
+ 51000000.pcie_ep
+
+If PCI_ENDPOINT_CONFIGFS is enabled::
+
+ # ls /sys/kernel/config/pci_ep/controllers
+ 51000000.pcie_ep
+
+
+Endpoint Function Drivers
+-------------------------
+
+To find the list of endpoint function drivers in the system::
+
+ # ls /sys/bus/pci-epf/drivers
+ pci_epf_test
+
+If PCI_ENDPOINT_CONFIGFS is enabled::
+
+ # ls /sys/kernel/config/pci_ep/functions
+ pci_epf_test
+
+
+Creating pci-epf-test Device
+----------------------------
+
+PCI endpoint function device can be created using the configfs. To create
+pci-epf-test device, the following commands can be used::
+
+ # mount -t configfs none /sys/kernel/config
+ # cd /sys/kernel/config/pci_ep/
+ # mkdir functions/pci_epf_test/func1
+
+The "mkdir func1" above creates the pci-epf-test function device that will
+be probed by pci_epf_test driver.
+
+The PCI endpoint framework populates the directory with the following
+configurable fields::
+
+ # ls functions/pci_epf_test/func1
+ baseclass_code interrupt_pin progif_code subsys_id
+ cache_line_size msi_interrupts revid subsys_vendorid
+ deviceid msix_interrupts subclass_code vendorid
+
+The PCI endpoint function driver populates these entries with default values
+when the device is bound to the driver. The pci-epf-test driver populates
+vendorid with 0xffff and interrupt_pin with 0x0001::
+
+ # cat functions/pci_epf_test/func1/vendorid
+ 0xffff
+ # cat functions/pci_epf_test/func1/interrupt_pin
+ 0x0001
+
+
+Configuring pci-epf-test Device
+-------------------------------
+
+The user can configure the pci-epf-test device using configfs entry. In order
+to change the vendorid and the number of MSI interrupts used by the function
+device, the following commands can be used::
+
+ # echo 0x104c > functions/pci_epf_test/func1/vendorid
+ # echo 0xb500 > functions/pci_epf_test/func1/deviceid
+ # echo 16 > functions/pci_epf_test/func1/msi_interrupts
+ # echo 8 > functions/pci_epf_test/func1/msix_interrupts
+
+
+Binding pci-epf-test Device to EP Controller
+--------------------------------------------
+
+In order for the endpoint function device to be useful, it has to be bound to
+a PCI endpoint controller driver. Use the configfs to bind the function
+device to one of the controller driver present in the system::
+
+ # ln -s functions/pci_epf_test/func1 controllers/51000000.pcie_ep/
+
+Once the above step is completed, the PCI endpoint is ready to establish a link
+with the host.
+
+
+Start the Link
+--------------
+
+In order for the endpoint device to establish a link with the host, the _start_
+field should be populated with '1'::
+
+ # echo 1 > controllers/51000000.pcie_ep/start
+
+
+RootComplex Device
+==================
+
+lspci Output
+------------
+
+Note that the devices listed here correspond to the value populated in 1.4
+above::
+
+ 00:00.0 PCI bridge: Texas Instruments Device 8888 (rev 01)
+ 01:00.0 Unassigned class [ff00]: Texas Instruments Device b500
+
+
+Using Endpoint Test function Device
+-----------------------------------
+
+pcitest.sh added in tools/pci/ can be used to run all the default PCI endpoint
+tests. To compile this tool the following commands should be used::
+
+ # cd <kernel-dir>
+ # make -C tools/pci
+
+or if you desire to compile and install in your system::
+
+ # cd <kernel-dir>
+ # make -C tools/pci install
+
+The tool and script will be located in <rootfs>/usr/bin/
