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.

If no regions are defined no statistics are +collected so there isn't any performance impact. Only bio-based DM +devices are currently supported. + +Each user-defined region specifies a starting sector, length and step. +Individual statistics will be collected for each step-sized area within +the range specified. + +The I/O statistics counters for each step-sized area of a region are +in the same format as `/sys/block/*/stat` or `/proc/diskstats` (see: +Documentation/admin-guide/iostats.rst). But two extra counters (12 and 13) are +provided: total time spent reading and writing. When the histogram +argument is used, the 14th parameter is reported that represents the +histogram of latencies. All these counters may be accessed by sending +the @stats_print message to the appropriate DM device via dmsetup. + +The reported times are in milliseconds and the granularity depends on +the kernel ticks. When the option precise_timestamps is used, the +reported times are in nanoseconds. + +Each region has a corresponding unique identifier, which we call a +region_id, that is assigned when the region is created. The region_id +must be supplied when querying statistics about the region, deleting the +region, etc. Unique region_ids enable multiple userspace programs to +request and process statistics for the same DM device without stepping +on each other's data. + +The creation of DM statistics will allocate memory via kmalloc or +fallback to using vmalloc space. At most, 1/4 of the overall system +memory may be allocated by DM statistics. The admin can see how much +memory is used by reading: + + /sys/module/dm_mod/parameters/stats_current_allocated_bytes + +Messages +======== + + @stats_create <range> <step> [<number_of_optional_arguments> <optional_arguments>...] [<program_id> [<aux_data>]] + Create a new region and return the region_id. + + <range> + "-" + whole device + "<start_sector>+<length>" + a range of <length> 512-byte sectors + starting with <start_sector>. + + <step> + "<area_size>" + the range is subdivided into areas each containing + <area_size> sectors. + "/<number_of_areas>" + the range is subdivided into the specified + number of areas. + + <number_of_optional_arguments> + The number of optional arguments + + <optional_arguments> + The following optional arguments are supported: + + precise_timestamps + use precise timer with nanosecond resolution + instead of the "jiffies" variable.

Precise timestamps are a little bit slower + to obtain than jiffies-based timestamps. + histogram:n1,n2,n3,n4,... + collect histogram of latencies. The + numbers n1, n2, etc are times that represent the boundaries + of the histogram. If precise_timestamps is not used, the + times are in milliseconds, otherwise they are in + nanoseconds. For each range, the kernel will report the + number of requests that completed within this range. For + example, if we use "histogram:10,20,30", the kernel will + report four numbers a:b:c:d. a is the number of requests + that took 0-10 ms to complete, b is the number of requests + that took 10-20 ms to complete, c is the number of requests + that took 20-30 ms to complete and d is the number of + requests that took more than 30 ms to complete. + + <program_id> + An optional parameter. A name that uniquely identifies + the userspace owner of the range.
