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.

+==========
+batman-adv
+==========
+
+Batman advanced is a new approach to wireless networking which does no longer
+operate on the IP basis. Unlike the batman daemon, which exchanges information
+using UDP packets and sets routing tables, batman-advanced operates on ISO/OSI
+Layer 2 only and uses and routes (or better: bridges) Ethernet Frames. It
+emulates a virtual network switch of all nodes participating. Therefore all
+nodes appear to be link local, thus all higher operating protocols won't be
+affected by any changes within the network. You can run almost any protocol
+above batman advanced, prominent examples are: IPv4, IPv6, DHCP, IPX.
+
+Batman advanced was implemented as a Linux kernel driver to reduce the overhead
+to a minimum. It does not depend on any (other) network driver, and can be used
+on wifi as well as ethernet lan, vpn, etc ... (anything with ethernet-style
+layer 2).
+
+
+Configuration
+=============
+
+Load the batman-adv module into your kernel::
+
+  $ insmod batman-adv.ko
+
+The module is now waiting for activation. You must add some interfaces on which
+batman-adv can operate. The batman-adv soft-interface can be created using the
+iproute2 tool ``ip``::
+
+  $ ip link add name bat0 type batadv
+
+To activate a given interface simply attach it to the ``bat0`` interface::
+
+  $ ip link set dev eth0 master bat0
+
+Repeat this step for all interfaces you wish to add. Now batman-adv starts
+using/broadcasting on this/these interface(s).
+
+To deactivate an interface you have to detach it from the "bat0" interface::
+
+  $ ip link set dev eth0 nomaster
+
+The same can also be done using the batctl interface subcommand::
+
+  batctl -m bat0 interface create
+  batctl -m bat0 interface add -M eth0
+
+To detach eth0 and destroy bat0::
+
+  batctl -m bat0 interface del -M eth0
+  batctl -m bat0 interface destroy
+
+There are additional settings for each batadv mesh interface, vlan and hardif
+which can be modified using batctl. Detailed information about this can be found
+in its manual.
+
+For instance, you can check the current originator interval (value
+in milliseconds which determines how often batman-adv sends its broadcast
+packets)::
+
+  $ batctl -M bat0 orig_interval
+  1000
+
+and also change its value::
+
+  $ batctl -M bat0 orig_interval 3000
+
+In very mobile scenarios, you might want to adjust the originator interval to a
+lower value. This will make the mesh more responsive to topology changes, but
+will also increase the overhead.
+
+Information about the current state can be accessed via the batadv generic
+netlink family. batctl provides a human readable version via its debug tables
+subcommands.
+
+
+Usage
+=====
+
+To make use of your newly created mesh, batman advanced provides a new
+interface "bat0" which you should use from this point on. All interfaces added
+to batman advanced are not relevant any longer because batman handles them for
+you. Basically, one "hands over" the data by using the batman interface and
+batman will make sure it reaches its destination.
+
+The "bat0" interface can be used like any other regular interface. It needs an
+IP address which can be either statically configured or dynamically (by using
+DHCP or similar services)::
+
+  NodeA: ip link set up dev bat0
+  NodeA: ip addr add 192.168.0.1/24 dev bat0
+
+  NodeB: ip link set up dev bat0
+  NodeB: ip addr add 192.168.0.2/24 dev bat0
+  NodeB: ping 192.168.0.1
+
+Note: In order to avoid problems remove all IP addresses previously assigned to
+interfaces now used by batman advanced, e.g.::
+
+  $ ip addr flush dev eth0
+
+
+Logging/Debugging
+=================
+
+All error messages, warnings and information messages are sent to the kernel
+log. Depending on your operating system distribution this can be read in one of
+a number of ways. Try using the commands: ``dmesg``, ``logread``, or looking in
+the files ``/var/log/kern.log`` or ``/var/log/syslog``. All batman-adv messages
+are prefixed with "batman-adv:" So to see just these messages try::
+
+  $ dmesg | grep batman-adv
+
+When investigating problems with your mesh network, it is sometimes necessary to
+see more detailed debug messages. This must be enabled when compiling the
+batman-adv module. When building batman-adv as part of the kernel, use "make
+menuconfig" and enable the option ``B.A.T.M.A.N. debugging``
+(``CONFIG_BATMAN_ADV_DEBUG=y``).
+
+Those additional debug messages can be accessed using the perf infrastructure::
+
+  $ trace-cmd stream -e batadv:batadv_dbg
+
+The additional debug output is by default disabled. It can be enabled during
+run time::
+
+  $ batctl -m bat0 loglevel routes tt
+
+will enable debug messages for when routes and translation table entries change.
+
+Counters for different types of packets entering and leaving the batman-adv
+module are available through ethtool::
+
+  $ ethtool --statistics bat0
+
+
+batctl
+======
+
+As batman advanced operates on layer 2, all hosts participating in the virtual
+switch are completely transparent for all protocols above layer 2. Therefore
+the common diagnosis tools do not work as expected. To overcome these problems,
+batctl was created. At the moment the batctl contains ping, traceroute, tcpdump
+and interfaces to the kernel module settings.
+
+For more information, please see the manpage (``man batctl``).
+
+batctl is available on https://www.open-mesh.org/
