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

     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.

+===============================================
+Mounting the root filesystem via NFS (nfsroot)
+===============================================
+
+:Authors:
+	Written 1996 by Gero Kuhlmann <gero@gkminix.han.de>
+
+	Updated 1997 by Martin Mares <mj@atrey.karlin.mff.cuni.cz>

+
+
+
+In order to use a diskless system, such as an X-terminal or printer server for
+example, it is necessary for the root filesystem to be present on a non-disk
+device. This may be an initramfs (see
+Documentation/filesystems/ramfs-rootfs-initramfs.rst), a ramdisk (see
+Documentation/admin-guide/initrd.rst) or a filesystem mounted via NFS. The
+following text describes on how to use NFS for the root filesystem. For the rest
+of this text 'client' means the diskless system, and 'server' means the NFS
+server.
+
+
+
+
+Enabling nfsroot capabilities
+=============================
+
+In order to use nfsroot, NFS client support needs to be selected as
+built-in during configuration. Once this has been selected, the nfsroot
+option will become available, which should also be selected.
+
+In the networking options, kernel level autoconfiguration can be selected,
+along with the types of autoconfiguration to support. Selecting all of
+DHCP, BOOTP and RARP is safe.
+
+
+
+
+Kernel command line
+===================
+
+When the kernel has been loaded by a boot loader (see below) it needs to be
+told what root fs device to use. And in the case of nfsroot, where to find
+both the server and the name of the directory on the server to mount as root.
+This can be established using the following kernel command line parameters:
+
+
+root=/dev/nfs
+  This is necessary to enable the pseudo-NFS-device. Note that it's not a
+  real device but just a synonym to tell the kernel to use NFS instead of
+  a real device.
+
+
+nfsroot=[<server-ip>:]<root-dir>[,<nfs-options>]
+  If the `nfsroot' parameter is NOT given on the command line,
+  the default ``"/tftpboot/%s"`` will be used.
+
+  <server-ip>	Specifies the IP address of the NFS server.
+		The default address is determined by the ip parameter
+		(see below). This parameter allows the use of different
+		servers for IP autoconfiguration and NFS.
+
+  <root-dir>	Name of the directory on the server to mount as root.
+		If there is a "%s" token in the string, it will be
+		replaced by the ASCII-representation of the client's
+		IP address.
+
+  <nfs-options>	Standard NFS options. All options are separated by commas.
+		The following defaults are used::
+
+			port		= as given by server portmap daemon
+			rsize		= 4096
+			wsize		= 4096
+			timeo		= 7
+			retrans		= 3
+			acregmin	= 3
+			acregmax	= 60
+			acdirmin	= 30
+			acdirmax	= 60
+			flags		= hard, nointr, noposix, cto, ac
+
+
+ip=<client-ip>:<server-ip>:<gw-ip>:<netmask>:<hostname>:<device>:<autoconf>:<dns0-ip>:<dns1-ip>:<ntp0-ip>
+  This parameter tells the kernel how to configure IP addresses of devices
+  and also how to set up the IP routing table. It was originally called
+  nfsaddrs, but now the boot-time IP configuration works independently of
+  NFS, so it was renamed to ip and the old name remained as an alias for
+  compatibility reasons.
+
+  If this parameter is missing from the kernel command line, all fields are
+  assumed to be empty, and the defaults mentioned below apply. In general
+  this means that the kernel tries to configure everything using
+  autoconfiguration.
+
+  The <autoconf> parameter can appear alone as the value to the ip
+  parameter (without all the ':' characters before).  If the value is
+  "ip=off" or "ip=none", no autoconfiguration will take place, otherwise
+  autoconfiguration will take place.  The most common way to use this
+  is "ip=dhcp".
+
+  <client-ip>	IP address of the client.
+  		Default:  Determined using autoconfiguration.
+
+  <server-ip>	IP address of the NFS server.
+		If RARP is used to determine
+		the client address and this parameter is NOT empty only
+		replies from the specified server are accepted.
+
+		Only required for NFS root. That is autoconfiguration
+		will not be triggered if it is missing and NFS root is not
+		in operation.
+
+		Value is exported to /proc/net/pnp with the prefix "bootserver "
+		(see below).
+
+		Default: Determined using autoconfiguration.
+		The address of the autoconfiguration server is used.
+
+  <gw-ip>	IP address of a gateway if the server is on a different subnet.
+		Default: Determined using autoconfiguration.
+
+  <netmask>	Netmask for local network interface.
+		If unspecified the netmask is derived from the client IP address
+		assuming classful addressing.
+
+		Default:  Determined using autoconfiguration.
+
+  <hostname>	Name of the client.
+		If a '.' character is present, anything
+		before the first '.' is used as the client's hostname, and anything
+		after it is used as its NIS domain name. May be supplied by
+		autoconfiguration, but its absence will not trigger autoconfiguration.
+		If specified and DHCP is used, the user-provided hostname (and NIS
+		domain name, if present) will be carried in the DHCP request; this
+		may cause a DNS record to be created or updated for the client.
+
+  		Default: Client IP address is used in ASCII notation.
+
+  <device>	Name of network device to use.
+		Default: If the host only has one device, it is used.
+		Otherwise the device is determined using
+		autoconfiguration. This is done by sending
+		autoconfiguration requests out of all devices,
+		and using the device that received the first reply.
+
+  <autoconf>	Method to use for autoconfiguration.
+		In the case of options
+		which specify multiple autoconfiguration protocols,
+		requests are sent using all protocols, and the first one
+		to reply is used.
+
+		Only autoconfiguration protocols that have been compiled
+		into the kernel will be used, regardless of the value of
+		this option::
+
+                  off or none: don't use autoconfiguration
+				(do static IP assignment instead)
+		  on or any:   use any protocol available in the kernel
+			       (default)
+		  dhcp:        use DHCP
+		  bootp:       use BOOTP
+		  rarp:        use RARP
+		  both:        use both BOOTP and RARP but not DHCP
+		               (old option kept for backwards compatibility)
+
+		if dhcp is used, the client identifier can be used by following
+		format "ip=dhcp,client-id-type,client-id-value"
+
+                Default: any
+
+  <dns0-ip>	IP address of primary nameserver.
+		Value is exported to /proc/net/pnp with the prefix "nameserver "
+		(see below).
+
+		Default: None if not using autoconfiguration; determined
+		automatically if using autoconfiguration.
+
+  <dns1-ip>	IP address of secondary nameserver.
+		See <dns0-ip>.
+
+  <ntp0-ip>	IP address of a Network Time Protocol (NTP) server.
+		Value is exported to /proc/net/ipconfig/ntp_servers, but is
+		otherwise unused (see below).
+
+		Default: None if not using autoconfiguration; determined
+		automatically if using autoconfiguration.
+
+  After configuration (whether manual or automatic) is complete, two files
+  are created in the following format; lines are omitted if their respective
+  value is empty following configuration:
+
+  - /proc/net/pnp:
+
+	#PROTO: <DHCP|BOOTP|RARP|MANUAL>	(depending on configuration method)
+	domain <dns-domain>			(if autoconfigured, the DNS domain)
+	nameserver <dns0-ip>			(primary name server IP)
+	nameserver <dns1-ip>			(secondary name server IP)
+	nameserver <dns2-ip>			(tertiary name server IP)
+	bootserver <server-ip>			(NFS server IP)
+
+  - /proc/net/ipconfig/ntp_servers:
+
+	<ntp0-ip>				(NTP server IP)
+	<ntp1-ip>				(NTP server IP)
+	<ntp2-ip>				(NTP server IP)
+
+  <dns-domain> and <dns2-ip> (in /proc/net/pnp) and <ntp1-ip> and <ntp2-ip>
+  (in /proc/net/ipconfig/ntp_servers) are requested during autoconfiguration;
+  they cannot be specified as part of the "ip=" kernel command line parameter.
+
+  Because the "domain" and "nameserver" options are recognised by DNS
+  resolvers, /etc/resolv.conf is often linked to /proc/net/pnp on systems
+  that use an NFS root filesystem.
+
+  Note that the kernel will not synchronise the system time with any NTP
+  servers it discovers; this is the responsibility of a user space process
+  (e.g. an initrd/initramfs script that passes the IP addresses listed in
+  /proc/net/ipconfig/ntp_servers to an NTP client before mounting the real
+  root filesystem if it is on NFS).
+
+
+nfsrootdebug
+  This parameter enables debugging messages to appear in the kernel
+  log at boot time so that administrators can verify that the correct
+  NFS mount options, server address, and root path are passed to the
+  NFS client.
+
+
+rdinit=<executable file>
+  To specify which file contains the program that starts system
+  initialization, administrators can use this command line parameter.
+  The default value of this parameter is "/init".  If the specified
+  file exists and the kernel can execute it, root filesystem related
+  kernel command line parameters, including 'nfsroot=', are ignored.
+
+  A description of the process of mounting the root file system can be
+  found in Documentation/driver-api/early-userspace/early_userspace_support.rst
+
+
+Boot Loader
+===========
+
+To get the kernel into memory different approaches can be used.
+They depend on various facilities being available:
+
+
+- Booting from a floppy using syslinux
+
+	When building kernels, an easy way to create a boot floppy that uses
+	syslinux is to use the zdisk or bzdisk make targets which use zimage
+      	and bzimage images respectively. Both targets accept the
+     	FDARGS parameter which can be used to set the kernel command line.
+
+	e.g::
+
+	   make bzdisk FDARGS="root=/dev/nfs"
+
+   	Note that the user running this command will need to have
+     	access to the floppy drive device, /dev/fd0
+
+     	For more information on syslinux, including how to create bootdisks
+     	for prebuilt kernels, see https://syslinux.zytor.com/
+
+	.. note::
+		Previously it was possible to write a kernel directly to
+		a floppy using dd, configure the boot device using rdev, and
+		boot using the resulting floppy. Linux no longer supports this
+		method of booting.
+
+- Booting from a cdrom using isolinux
+
+     	When building kernels, an easy way to create a bootable cdrom that
+     	uses isolinux is to use the isoimage target which uses a bzimage
+     	image. Like zdisk and bzdisk, this target accepts the FDARGS
+     	parameter which can be used to set the kernel command line.
+
+	e.g::
+
+	  make isoimage FDARGS="root=/dev/nfs"
+
+     	The resulting iso image will be arch/<ARCH>/boot/image.iso
+     	This can be written to a cdrom using a variety of tools including
+     	cdrecord.
+
+	e.g::
+
+	  cdrecord dev=ATAPI:1,0,0 arch/x86/boot/image.iso
+
+     	For more information on isolinux, including how to create bootdisks
+     	for prebuilt kernels, see https://syslinux.zytor.com/
+
+- Using LILO
+
+	When using LILO all the necessary command line parameters may be
+	specified using the 'append=' directive in the LILO configuration
+	file.
+
+	However, to use the 'root=' directive you also need to create
+	a dummy root device, which may be removed after LILO is run.
+
+	e.g::
+
+	  mknod /dev/boot255 c 0 255
+
+	For information on configuring LILO, please refer to its documentation.
+
+- Using GRUB
+
+	When using GRUB, kernel parameter are simply appended after the kernel
+	specification: kernel <kernel> <parameters>
+
+- Using loadlin
+
+	loadlin may be used to boot Linux from a DOS command prompt without
+	requiring a local hard disk to mount as root. This has not been
+	thoroughly tested by the authors of this document, but in general
+	it should be possible configure the kernel command line similarly
+	to the configuration of LILO.
+
+	Please refer to the loadlin documentation for further information.
+
+- Using a boot ROM
+
+	This is probably the most elegant way of booting a diskless client.
+	With a boot ROM the kernel is loaded using the TFTP protocol. The
+	authors of this document are not aware of any no commercial boot
+	ROMs that support booting Linux over the network. However, there
+	are two free implementations of a boot ROM, netboot-nfs and
+	etherboot, both of which are available on sunsite.unc.edu, and both
+	of which contain everything you need to boot a diskless Linux client.
+
+- Using pxelinux
+
+	Pxelinux may be used to boot linux using the PXE boot loader
+	which is present on many modern network cards.
+
+	When using pxelinux, the kernel image is specified using
+	"kernel <relative-path-below /tftpboot>". The nfsroot parameters
