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.

+
+A Partial List of Missing Features
+==================================
+
+Contributions are welcome.  There are plenty of opportunities
+for visible, important contributions to this module.  Here
+is a partial list of the known problems and missing features:
+
+a) SMB3 (and SMB3.1.1) missing optional features:
+
+   - multichannel (partially integrated), integration of multichannel with RDMA
+   - directory leases (improved metadata caching). Currently only implemented for root dir
+   - T10 copy offload ie "ODX" (copy chunk, and "Duplicate Extents" ioctl
+     currently the only two server side copy mechanisms supported)
+
+b) improved sparse file support (fiemap and SEEK_HOLE are implemented
+   but additional features would be supportable by the protocol such
+   as FALLOC_FL_COLLAPSE_RANGE and FALLOC_FL_INSERT_RANGE)
+
+c) Directory entry caching relies on a 1 second timer, rather than
+   using Directory Leases, currently only the root file handle is cached longer
+   by leveraging Directory Leases
+
+d) quota support (needs minor kernel change since quota calls otherwise
+    won't make it to network filesystems or deviceless filesystems).
+
+e) Additional use cases can be optimized to use "compounding" (e.g.
+   open/query/close and open/setinfo/close) to reduce the number of
+   roundtrips to the server and improve performance. Various cases
+   (stat, statfs, create, unlink, mkdir, xattrs) already have been improved by
+   using compounding but more can be done. In addition we could
+   significantly reduce redundant opens by using deferred close (with
+   handle caching leases) and better using reference counters on file
+   handles.
+
+f) Finish inotify support so kde and gnome file list windows
+   will autorefresh (partially complete by Asser). Needs minor kernel
+   vfs change to support removing D_NOTIFY on a file.
+
+g) Add GUI tool to configure /proc/fs/cifs settings and for display of
+   the CIFS statistics (started)
+
+h) implement support for security and trusted categories of xattrs
+   (requires minor protocol extension) to enable better support for SELINUX
+
+i) Add support for tree connect contexts (see MS-SMB2) a new SMB3.1.1 protocol
+   feature (may be especially useful for virtualization).
+
+j) Create UID mapping facility so server UIDs can be mapped on a per
+   mount or a per server basis to client UIDs or nobody if no mapping
+   exists. Also better integration with winbind for resolving SID owners
+
+k) Add tools to take advantage of more smb3 specific ioctls and features
+   (passthrough ioctl/fsctl is now implemented in cifs.ko to allow
+   sending various SMB3 fsctls and query info and set info calls
+   directly from user space) Add tools to make setting various non-POSIX
+   metadata attributes easier from tools (e.g. extending what was done
+   in smb-info tool).
+
+l) encrypted file support (currently the attribute showing the file is
+   encrypted on the server is reported, but changing the attribute is not
+   supported).
+
+m) improved stats gathering tools (perhaps integration with nfsometer?)
+   to extend and make easier to use what is currently in /proc/fs/cifs/Stats
+
+n) Add support for claims based ACLs ("DAC")
+
+o) mount helper GUI (to simplify the various configuration options on mount)
+
+p) Expand support for witness protocol to allow for notification of share
+   move, and server network adapter changes. Currently only notifications by
+   the witness protocol for server move is supported by the Linux client.
+
+q) Allow mount.cifs to be more verbose in reporting errors with dialect
+   or unsupported feature errors. This would now be easier due to the
+   implementation of the new mount API.
+
+r) updating cifs documentation, and user guide.
+
+s) Addressing bugs found by running a broader set of xfstests in standard
+   file system xfstest suite.
+
+t) split cifs and smb3 support into separate modules so legacy (and less
+   secure) CIFS dialect can be disabled in environments that don't need it
+   and simplify the code.
+
+v) Additional testing of POSIX Extensions for SMB3.1.1
+
+w) Add support for additional strong encryption types, and additional spnego
+   authentication mechanisms (see MS-SMB2).  GCM-256 is now partially implemented.
+
+x) Finish support for SMB3.1.1 compression
+
+Known Bugs
+==========
+
+See https://bugzilla.samba.org - search on product "CifsVFS" for
+current bug list.  Also check http://bugzilla.kernel.org (Product = File System, Component = CIFS)
+
+1) existing symbolic links (Windows reparse points) are recognized but
+   can not be created remotely. They are implemented for Samba and those that
+   support the CIFS Unix extensions, although earlier versions of Samba
+   overly restrict the pathnames.
+2) follow_link and readdir code does not follow dfs junctions
+   but recognizes them
+
+Misc testing to do
+==================
+1) check out max path names and max path name components against various server
+   types. Try nested symlinks (8 deep). Return max path name in stat -f information
+
+2) Improve xfstest's cifs/smb3 enablement and adapt xfstests where needed to test
+   cifs/smb3 better
+
+3) Additional performance testing and optimization using iozone and similar -
+   there are some easy changes that can be done to parallelize sequential writes,
+   and when signing is disabled to request larger read sizes (larger than
+   negotiated size) and send larger write sizes to modern servers.
+
+4) More exhaustively test against less common servers
+
+5) Continue to extend the smb3 "buildbot" which does automated xfstesting
+   against Windows, Samba and Azure currently - to add additional tests and
+   to allow the buildbot to execute the tests faster. The URL for the
+   buildbot is: http://smb3-test-rhel-75.southcentralus.cloudapp.azure.com
+
+6) Address various coverity warnings (most are not bugs per-se, but
+   the more warnings are addressed, the easier it is to spot real
+   problems that static analyzers will point out in the future).
