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. New hardware / drivers: - Ethernet: - nVidia BlueField-3 support (control traffic driver) - Ethernet support for imx93 SoCs - Motorcomm yt8531 gigabit Ethernet PHY - onsemi NCN26000 10BASE-T1S PHY (with support for PLCA) - Microchip LAN8841 PHY (incl. cable diagnostics and PTP) - Amlogic gxl MDIO mux - WiFi: - RealTek RTL8188EU (rtl8xxxu) - Qualcomm Wi-Fi 7 devices (ath12k) - CAN: - Renesas R-Car V4H Drivers: - Bluetooth: - Set Per Platform Antenna Gain (PPAG) for Intel controllers. - Ethernet NICs: - Intel (1G, igc): - support TSN / Qbv / packet scheduling features of i226 model - Intel (100G, ice): - use GNSS subsystem instead of TTY - multi-buffer XDP support - extend support for GPIO pins to E823 devices - nVidia/Mellanox: - update the shared buffer configuration on PFC commands - implement PTP adjphase function for HW offset control - TC support for Geneve and GRE with VF tunnel offload - more efficient crypto key management method - multi-port eswitch support - Netronome/Corigine: - add DCB IEEE support - support IPsec offloading for NFP3800 - Freescale/NXP (enetc): - support XDP_REDIRECT for XDP non-linear buffers - improve reconfig, avoid link flap and waiting for idle - support MAC Merge layer - Other NICs: - sfc/ef100: add basic devlink support for ef100 - ionic: rx_push mode operation (writing descriptors via MMIO) - bnxt: use the auxiliary bus abstraction for RDMA - r8169: disable ASPM and reset bus in case of tx timeout - cpsw: support QSGMII mode for J721e CPSW9G - cpts: support pulse-per-second output - ngbe: add an mdio bus driver - usbnet: optimize usbnet_bh() by avoiding unnecessary queuing - r8152: handle devices with FW with NCM support - amd-xgbe: support 10Mbps, 2.5GbE speeds and rx-adaptation - virtio-net: support multi buffer XDP - virtio/vsock: replace virtio_vsock_pkt with sk_buff - tsnep: XDP support - Ethernet high-speed switches: - nVidia/Mellanox (mlxsw): - add support for latency TLV (in FW control messages) - Microchip (sparx5): - separate explicit and implicit traffic forwarding rules, make the implicit rules always active - add support for egress DSCP rewrite - IS0 VCAP support (Ingress Classification) - IS2 VCAP filters (protos, L3 addrs, L4 ports, flags, ToS etc.) - ES2 VCAP support (Egress Access Control) - support for Per-Stream Filtering and Policing (802.1Q, 8.6.5.1) - Ethernet embedded switches: - Marvell (mv88e6xxx): - add MAB (port auth) offload support - enable PTP receive for mv88e6390 - NXP (ocelot): - support MAC Merge layer - support for the the vsc7512 internal copper phys - Microchip: - lan9303: convert to PHYLINK - lan966x: support TC flower filter statistics - lan937x: PTP support for KSZ9563/KSZ8563 and LAN937x - lan937x: support Credit Based Shaper configuration - ksz9477: support Energy Efficient Ethernet - other: - qca8k: convert to regmap read/write API, use bulk operations - rswitch: Improve TX timestamp accuracy - Intel WiFi (iwlwifi): - EHT (Wi-Fi 7) rate reporting - STEP equalizer support: transfer some STEP (connection to radio on platforms with integrated wifi) related parameters from the BIOS to the firmware. - Qualcomm 802.11ax WiFi (ath11k): - IPQ5018 support - Fine Timing Measurement (FTM) responder role support - channel 177 support - MediaTek WiFi (mt76): - per-PHY LED support - mt7996: EHT (Wi-Fi 7) support - Wireless Ethernet Dispatch (WED) reset support - switch to using page pool allocator - RealTek WiFi (rtw89): - support new version of Bluetooth co-existance - Mobile: - rmnet: support TX aggregation" * tag 'net-next-6.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next: (1872 commits) page_pool: add a comment explaining the fragment counter usage net: ethtool: fix __ethtool_dev_mm_supported() implementation ethtool: pse-pd: Fix double word in comments xsk: add linux/vmalloc.h to xsk.c sefltests: netdevsim: wait for devlink instance after netns removal selftest: fib_tests: Always cleanup before exit net/mlx5e: Align IPsec ASO result memory to be as required by hardware net/mlx5e: TC, Set CT miss to the specific ct action instance net/mlx5e: Rename CHAIN_TO_REG to MAPPED_OBJ_TO_REG net/mlx5: Refactor tc miss handling to a single function net/mlx5: Kconfig: Make tc offload depend on tc skb extension net/sched: flower: Support hardware miss to tc action net/sched: flower: Move filter handle initialization earlier net/sched: cls_api: Support hardware miss to tc action net/sched: Rename user cookie and act cookie sfc: fix builds without CONFIG_RTC_LIB sfc: clean up some inconsistent indentings net/mlx4_en: Introduce flexible array to silence overflow warning net: lan966x: Fix possible deadlock inside PTP net/ulp: Remove redundant ->clone() test in inet_clone_ulp(). ...

+*** NOTE ***
+This document is copied from OPAL firmware

+
+ibm,powerpc-cpu-features binding
+================================
+
+This device tree binding describes CPU features available to software, with
+enablement, privilege, and compatibility metadata.
+
+More general description of design and implementation of this binding is
+found in design.txt, which also points to documentation of specific features.
+
+
+/cpus/ibm,powerpc-cpu-features node binding
+-------------------------------------------
+
+Node: ibm,powerpc-cpu-features
+
+Description: Container of CPU feature nodes.
+
+The node name must be "ibm,powerpc-cpu-features".
+
+It is implemented as a child of the node "/cpus", but this must not be
+assumed by parsers.
+
+The node is optional but should be provided by new OPAL firmware.
+
+Properties:
+
+- compatible
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: string
+ Definition: "ibm,powerpc-cpu-features"
+
+ This compatibility refers to backwards compatibility of the overall
+ design with parsers that behave according to these guidelines. This can
+ be extended in a backward compatible manner which would not warrant a
+ revision of the compatible property.
+
+- isa
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <u32>
+ Definition:
+
+ isa that the CPU is currently running in. This provides instruction set
+ compatibility, less the individual feature nodes. For example, an ISA v3.0
+ implementation that lacks the "transactional-memory" cpufeature node
+ should not use transactional memory facilities.
+
+ Value corresponds to the "Power ISA Version" multiplied by 1000.
+ For example, <3000> corresponds to Version 3.0, <2070> to Version 2.07.
+ The minor digit is available for revisions.
+
+- display-name
+ Usage: optional
+ Value type: string
+ Definition:
+
+ A human readable name for the CPU.
+
+/cpus/ibm,powerpc-cpu-features/example-feature node bindings
+----------------------------------------------------------------
+
+Each child node of cpu-features represents a CPU feature / capability.
+
+Node: A string describing an architected CPU feature, e.g., "floating-point".
+
+Description: A feature or capability supported by the CPUs.
+
+The name of the node is a human readable string that forms the interface
+used to describe features to software. Features are currently documented
+in the code where they are implemented in skiboot/core/cpufeatures.c
+
+Presence of the node indicates the feature is available.
+
+Properties:
+
+- isa
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <u32>
+ Definition:
+
+ First level of the Power ISA that the feature appears in.
+ Software should filter out features when constraining the
+ environment to a particular ISA version.
+
+ Value is defined similarly to /cpus/features/isa
+
+- usable-privilege
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <u32> bit mask
+ Definition:
+ Bit numbers are LSB0
+ bit 0 - PR (problem state / user mode)
+ bit 1 - OS (privileged state)
+ bit 2 - HV (hypervisor state)
+ All other bits reserved and should be zero.
+
+ This property describes the privilege levels and/or software components
+ that can use the feature.
+
+ If bit 0 is set, then the hwcap-bit-nr property will exist.
+
+
+- hv-support
+ Usage: optional
+ Value type: <u32> bit mask
+ Definition:
+ Bit numbers are LSB0
+ bit 0 - HFSCR
+ All other bits reserved and should be zero.
+
+ This property describes the HV privilege support required to enable the
+ feature to lesser privilege levels. If the property does not exist then no
+ support is required.
+
+ If no bits are set, the hypervisor must have explicit/custom support for
+ this feature.
+
+ If the HFSCR bit is set, then the hfscr-bit-nr property will exist and
+ the feature may be enabled by setting this bit in the HFSCR register.
+
+
+- os-support
+ Usage: optional
+ Value type: <u32> bit mask
+ Definition:
+ Bit numbers are LSB0
+ bit 0 - FSCR
+ All other bits reserved and should be zero.
+
+ This property describes the OS privilege support required to enable the
+ feature to lesser privilege levels. If the property does not exist then no
+ support is required.
+
+ If no bits are set, the operating system must have explicit/custom support
+ for this feature.
+
+ If the FSCR bit is set, then the fscr-bit-nr property will exist and
+ the feature may be enabled by setting this bit in the FSCR register.
+
+
+- hfscr-bit-nr
+ Usage: optional
+ Value type: <u32>
+ Definition: HFSCR bit position (LSB0)
+
+ This property exists when the hv-support property HFSCR bit is set. This
+ property describes the bit number in the HFSCR register that the
+ hypervisor must set in order to enable this feature.
+
+ This property also exists if an HFSCR bit corresponds with this feature.
+ This makes CPU feature parsing slightly simpler.
+
+
+- fscr-bit-nr
+ Usage: optional
+ Value type: <u32>
+ Definition: FSCR bit position (LSB0)
+
+ This property exists when the os-support property FSCR bit is set. This
+ property describes the bit number in the FSCR register that the
+ operating system must set in order to enable this feature.
+
+ This property also exists if an FSCR bit corresponds with this feature.
+ This makes CPU feature parsing slightly simpler.
+
+
+- hwcap-bit-nr
+ Usage: optional
+ Value type: <u32>
+ Definition: Linux ELF AUX vector bit position (LSB0)
+
+ This property may exist when the usable-privilege property value has PR bit set.
+ This property describes the bit number that should be set in the ELF AUX
+ hardware capability vectors in order to advertise this feature to userspace.
+ Bits 0-31 correspond to bits 0-31 in AT_HWCAP vector. Bits 32-63 correspond
+ to 0-31 in AT_HWCAP2 vector, and so on. Missing AT_HWCAPx vectors implies
+ that the feature is not enabled or can not be advertised. Operating systems
+ may provide a number of unassigned hardware capability bits to allow for new
+ features to be advertised.
+
+ Some properties representing features created before this binding are
+ advertised to userspace without a one-to-one hwcap bit number may not specify
+ this bit. Operating system will handle those bits specifically. All new
+ features usable by userspace will have a hwcap-bit-nr property.
+
+
+- dependencies
+ Usage: optional
+ Value type: <prop-encoded-array>
+ Definition:
+
+ If this property exists then it is a list of phandles to cpu feature
+ nodes that must be enabled for this feature to be enabled.
+
