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.

+============================
+Subsystem drivers using GPIO
+============================
+
+Note that standard kernel drivers exist for common GPIO tasks and will provide
+the right in-kernel and userspace APIs/ABIs for the job, and that these
+drivers can quite easily interconnect with other kernel subsystems using
+hardware descriptions such as device tree or ACPI:
+
+- leds-gpio: drivers/leds/leds-gpio.c will handle LEDs connected to  GPIO
+  lines, giving you the LED sysfs interface
+
+- ledtrig-gpio: drivers/leds/trigger/ledtrig-gpio.c will provide a LED trigger,
+  i.e. a LED will turn on/off in response to a GPIO line going high or low
+  (and that LED may in turn use the leds-gpio as per above).
+
+- gpio-keys: drivers/input/keyboard/gpio_keys.c is used when your GPIO line
+  can generate interrupts in response to a key press. Also supports debounce.
+
+- gpio-keys-polled: drivers/input/keyboard/gpio_keys_polled.c is used when your
+  GPIO line cannot generate interrupts, so it needs to be periodically polled
+  by a timer.
+
+- gpio_mouse: drivers/input/mouse/gpio_mouse.c is used to provide a mouse with
+  up to three buttons by simply using GPIOs and no mouse port. You can cut the
+  mouse cable and connect the wires to GPIO lines or solder a mouse connector
+  to the lines for a more permanent solution of this type.
+
+- gpio-beeper: drivers/input/misc/gpio-beeper.c is used to provide a beep from
+  an external speaker connected to a GPIO line.
+
+- extcon-gpio: drivers/extcon/extcon-gpio.c is used when you need to read an
+  external connector status, such as a headset line for an audio driver or an
+  HDMI connector. It will provide a better userspace sysfs interface than GPIO.
+
+- restart-gpio: drivers/power/reset/gpio-restart.c is used to restart/reboot
+  the system by pulling a GPIO line and will register a restart handler so
+  userspace can issue the right system call to restart the system.
+
+- poweroff-gpio: drivers/power/reset/gpio-poweroff.c is used to power the
+  system down by pulling a GPIO line and will register a pm_power_off()
+  callback so that userspace can issue the right system call to power down the
+  system.
+
+- gpio-gate-clock: drivers/clk/clk-gpio.c is used to control a gated clock
+  (off/on) that uses a GPIO, and integrated with the clock subsystem.
+
+- i2c-gpio: drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-gpio.c is used to drive an I2C bus
+  (two wires, SDA and SCL lines) by hammering (bitbang) two GPIO lines. It will
+  appear as any other I2C bus to the system and makes it possible to connect
+  drivers for the I2C devices on the bus like any other I2C bus driver.
+
+- spi_gpio: drivers/spi/spi-gpio.c is used to drive an SPI bus (variable number
+  of wires, at least SCK and optionally MISO, MOSI and chip select lines) using
+  GPIO hammering (bitbang). It will appear as any other SPI bus on the system
+  and makes it possible to connect drivers for SPI devices on the bus like
+  any other SPI bus driver. For example any MMC/SD card can then be connected
+  to this SPI by using the mmc_spi host from the MMC/SD card subsystem.
+
+- w1-gpio: drivers/w1/masters/w1-gpio.c is used to drive a one-wire bus using
+  a GPIO line, integrating with the W1 subsystem and handling devices on
+  the bus like any other W1 device.
+
+- gpio-fan: drivers/hwmon/gpio-fan.c is used to control a fan for cooling the
+  system, connected to a GPIO line (and optionally a GPIO alarm line),
+  presenting all the right in-kernel and sysfs interfaces to make your system
+  not overheat.
+
+- gpio-regulator: drivers/regulator/gpio-regulator.c is used to control a
+  regulator providing a certain voltage by pulling a GPIO line, integrating
+  with the regulator subsystem and giving you all the right interfaces.
+
+- gpio-wdt: drivers/watchdog/gpio_wdt.c is used to provide a watchdog timer
+  that will periodically "ping" a hardware connected to a GPIO line by toggling
+  it from 1-to-0-to-1. If that hardware does not receive its "ping"
+  periodically, it will reset the system.
+
+- gpio-nand: drivers/mtd/nand/raw/gpio.c is used to connect a NAND flash chip
+  to a set of simple GPIO lines: RDY, NCE, ALE, CLE, NWP. It interacts with the
+  NAND flash MTD subsystem and provides chip access and partition parsing like
+  any other NAND driving hardware.
+
+- ps2-gpio: drivers/input/serio/ps2-gpio.c is used to drive a PS/2 (IBM) serio
+  bus, data and clock line, by bit banging two GPIO lines. It will appear as
+  any other serio bus to the system and makes it possible to connect drivers
+  for e.g. keyboards and other PS/2 protocol based devices.
+
+- cec-gpio: drivers/media/platform/cec-gpio/ is used to interact with a CEC
+  Consumer Electronics Control bus using only GPIO. It is used to communicate
+  with devices on the HDMI bus.
+
+- gpio-charger: drivers/power/supply/gpio-charger.c is used if you need to do
+  battery charging and all you have to go by to check the presence of the
+  AC charger or more complex tasks such as indicating charging status using
+  nothing but GPIO lines, this driver provides that and also a clearly defined
+  way to pass the charging parameters from hardware descriptions such as the
+  device tree.
+
+- gpio-mux: drivers/mux/gpio.c is used for controlling a multiplexer using
+  n GPIO lines such that you can mux in 2^n different devices by activating
+  different GPIO lines. Often the GPIOs are on a SoC and the devices are
+  some SoC-external entities, such as different components on a PCB that
+  can be selectively enabled.
+
+Apart from this there are special GPIO drivers in subsystems like MMC/SD to
+read card detect and write protect GPIO lines, and in the TTY serial subsystem
+to emulate MCTRL (modem control) signals CTS/RTS by using two GPIO lines. The
+MTD NOR flash has add-ons for extra GPIO lines too, though the address bus is
+usually connected directly to the flash.
+
+Use those instead of talking directly to the GPIOs from userspace; they
+integrate with kernel frameworks better than your userspace code could.
+Needless to say, just using the appropriate kernel drivers will simplify and
+speed up your embedded hacking in particular by providing ready-made components.
