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.

SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 + +============================= +Overview of Amiga Filesystems +============================= + +Not all varieties of the Amiga filesystems are supported for reading and +writing. The Amiga currently knows six different filesystems: + +============== =============================================================== +DOS\0 The old or original filesystem, not really suited for + hard disks and normally not used on them, either. + Supported read/write. + +DOS\1 The original Fast File System. Supported read/write. + +DOS\2 The old "international" filesystem. International means that + a bug has been fixed so that accented ("international") letters + in file names are case-insensitive, as they ought to be. + Supported read/write. + +DOS\3 The "international" Fast File System. Supported read/write. + +DOS\4 The original filesystem with directory cache. The directory + cache speeds up directory accesses on floppies considerably, + but slows down file creation/deletion. Doesn't make much + sense on hard disks. Supported read only. + +DOS\5 The Fast File System with directory cache. Supported read only. +============== =============================================================== + +All of the above filesystems allow block sizes from 512 to 32K bytes. +Supported block sizes are: 512, 1024, 2048 and 4096 bytes. Larger blocks +speed up almost everything at the expense of wasted disk space. The speed +gain above 4K seems not really worth the price, so you don't lose too +much here, either. + +The muFS (multi user File System) equivalents of the above file systems +are supported, too. + +Mount options for the AFFS +========================== + +protect + If this option is set, the protection bits cannot be altered. + +setuid[=uid] + This sets the owner of all files and directories in the file + system to uid or the uid of the current user, respectively. + +setgid[=gid] + Same as above, but for gid. + +mode=mode + Sets the mode flags to the given (octal) value, regardless + of the original permissions. Directories will get an x + permission if the corresponding r bit is set. + This is useful since most of the plain AmigaOS files + will map to 600. + +nofilenametruncate + The file system will return an error when filename exceeds + standard maximum filename length (30 characters). + +reserved=num + Sets the number of reserved blocks at the start of the + partition to num. You should never need this option. + Default is 2. + +root=block + Sets the block number of the root block. This should never + be necessary. + +bs=blksize + Sets the blocksize to blksize. Valid block sizes are 512, + 1024, 2048 and 4096. Like the root option, this should + never be necessary, as the affs can figure it out itself. + +quiet + The file system will not return an error for disallowed + mode changes. + +verbose + The volume name, file system type and block size will + be written to the syslog when the filesystem is mounted. + +mufs + The filesystem is really a muFS, also it doesn't + identify itself as one. This option is necessary if + the filesystem wasn't formatted as muFS, but is used + as one. + +prefix=path + Path will be prefixed to every absolute path name of + symbolic links on an AFFS partition. Default = "/". + (See below.) + +volume=name + When symbolic links with an absolute path are created + on an AFFS partition, name will be prepended as the + volume name. Default = "" (empty string). + (See below.) + +Handling of the Users/Groups and protection flags +================================================= + +Amiga -> Linux: + +The Amiga protection flags RWEDRWEDHSPARWED are handled as follows: + + - R maps to r for user, group and others. On directories, R implies x. + + - W maps to w. + + - E maps to x. + + - D is ignored. + + - H, S and P are always retained and ignored under Linux. + + - A is cleared when a file is written to. + +User id and group id will be used unless set[gu]id are given as mount +options. Since most of the Amiga file systems are single user systems +they will be owned by root. The root directory (the mount point) of the +Amiga filesystem will be owned by the user who actually mounts the +filesystem (the root directory doesn't have uid/gid fields). + +Linux -> Amiga: + +The Linux rwxrwxrwx file mode is handled as follows: + + - r permission will allow R for user, group and others. + + - w permission will allow W for user, group and others. + + - x permission of the user will allow E for plain files. + + - D will be allowed for user, group and others. + + - All other flags (suid, sgid, ...) are ignored and will + not be retained. + +Newly created files and directories will get the user and group ID +of the current user and a mode according to the umask. + +Symbolic links +============== + +Although the Amiga and Linux file systems resemble each other, there +are some, not always subtle, differences. One of them becomes apparent +with symbolic links. While Linux has a file system with exactly one +root directory, the Amiga has a separate root directory for each +file system (for example, partition, floppy disk, ...). With the Amiga, +these entities are called "volumes". They have symbolic names which +can be used to access them. Thus, symbolic links can point to a +different volume. AFFS turns the volume name into a directory name +and prepends the prefix path (see prefix option) to it. + +Example: +You mount all your Amiga partitions under /amiga/<volume> (where +<volume> is the name of the volume), and you give the option +"prefix=/amiga/" when mounting all your AFFS partitions. (They +might be "User", "WB" and "Graphics", the mount points /amiga/User, +/amiga/WB and /amiga/Graphics). A symbolic link referring to +"User:sc/include/dos/dos.h" will be followed to +"/amiga/User/sc/include/dos/dos.h". + +Examples +======== + +Command line:: + + mount Archive/Amiga/Workbench3.1.adf /mnt -t affs -o loop,verbose + mount /dev/sda3 /Amiga -t affs + +/etc/fstab entry:: + + /dev/sdb5 /amiga/Workbench affs noauto,user,exec,verbose 0 0 + +IMPORTANT NOTE +============== + +If you boot Windows 95 (don't know about 3.x, 98 and NT) while you +have an Amiga harddisk connected to your PC, it will overwrite +the bytes 0x00dc..0x00df of block 0 with garbage, thus invalidating +the Rigid Disk Block. Sheer luck has it that this is an unused +area of the RDB, so only the checksum doesn't match anymore. +Linux will ignore this garbage and recognize the RDB anyway, but +before you connect that drive to your Amiga again, you must +restore or repair your RDB. So please do make a backup copy of it +before booting Windows! + +If the damage is already done, the following should fix the RDB +(where <disk> is the device name). + +DO AT YOUR OWN RISK:: + + dd if=/dev/<disk> of=rdb.tmp count=1 + cp rdb.tmp rdb.fixed + dd if=/dev/zero of=rdb.fixed bs=1 seek=220 count=4 + dd if=rdb.fixed of=/dev/<disk> + +Bugs, Restrictions, Caveats +=========================== + +Quite a few things may not work as advertised. Not everything is +tested, though several hundred MB have been read and written using +this fs. For a most up-to-date list of bugs please consult +fs/affs/Changes. + +By default, filenames are truncated to 30 characters without warning. +'nofilenametruncate' mount option can change that behavior. + +Case is ignored by the affs in filename matching, but Linux shells +do care about the case. Example (with /wb being an affs mounted fs):: + + rm /wb/WRONGCASE + +will remove /mnt/wrongcase, but:: + + rm /wb/WR* + +will not since the names are matched by the shell. + +The block allocation is designed for hard disk partitions. If more +than 1 process writes to a (small) diskette, the blocks are allocated +in an ugly way (but the real AFFS doesn't do much better). This +is also true when space gets tight. + +You cannot execute programs on an OFS (Old File System), since the +program files cannot be memory mapped due to the 488 byte blocks. +For the same reason you cannot mount an image on such a filesystem +via the loopback device. + +The bitmap valid flag in the root block may not be accurate when the +system crashes while an affs partition is mounted. There's currently +no way to fix a garbled filesystem without an Amiga (disk validator) +or manually (who would do this?). Maybe later. + +If you mount affs partitions on system startup, you may want to tell +fsck that the fs should not be checked (place a '0' in the sixth field +of /etc/fstab). + +It's not possible to read floppy disks with a normal PC or workstation +due to an incompatibility with the Amiga floppy controller. + +If you are interested in an Amiga Emulator for Linux, look at + +http://web.archive.org/web/%2E/http://www.freiburg.linux.de/~uae/ |
