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.

+phylink
+=======
+
+Overview
+========
+
+phylink is a mechanism to support hot-pluggable networking modules
+directly connected to a MAC without needing to re-initialise the
+adapter on hot-plug events.
+
+phylink supports conventional phylib-based setups, fixed link setups
+and SFP (Small Formfactor Pluggable) modules at present.
+
+Modes of operation
+==================
+
+phylink has several modes of operation, which depend on the firmware
+settings.
+
+1. PHY mode
+
+   In PHY mode, we use phylib to read the current link settings from
+   the PHY, and pass them to the MAC driver.  We expect the MAC driver
+   to configure exactly the modes that are specified without any
+   negotiation being enabled on the link.
+
+2. Fixed mode
+
+   Fixed mode is the same as PHY mode as far as the MAC driver is
+   concerned.
+
+3. In-band mode
+
+   In-band mode is used with 802.3z, SGMII and similar interface modes,
+   and we are expecting to use and honor the in-band negotiation or
+   control word sent across the serdes channel.
+
+By example, what this means is that:
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+  &eth {
+    phy = <&phy>;
+    phy-mode = "sgmii";
+  };
+
+does not use in-band SGMII signalling.  The PHY is expected to follow
+exactly the settings given to it in its :c:func:`mac_config` function.
+The link should be forced up or down appropriately in the
+:c:func:`mac_link_up` and :c:func:`mac_link_down` functions.
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+  &eth {
+    managed = "in-band-status";
+    phy = <&phy>;
+    phy-mode = "sgmii";
+  };
+
+uses in-band mode, where results from the PHY's negotiation are passed
+to the MAC through the SGMII control word, and the MAC is expected to
+acknowledge the control word.  The :c:func:`mac_link_up` and
+:c:func:`mac_link_down` functions must not force the MAC side link
+up and down.
+
+Rough guide to converting a network driver to sfp/phylink
+=========================================================
+
+This guide briefly describes how to convert a network driver from
+phylib to the sfp/phylink support.  Please send patches to improve
+this documentation.
+
+1. Optionally split the network driver's phylib update function into
+   two parts dealing with link-down and link-up. This can be done as
+   a separate preparation commit.
+
+   An older example of this preparation can be found in git commit
+   fc548b991fb0, although this was splitting into three parts; the
+   link-up part now includes configuring the MAC for the link settings.
+   Please see :c:func:`mac_link_up` for more information on this.
+
+2. Replace::
+
+	select FIXED_PHY
+	select PHYLIB
+
+   with::
+
+	select PHYLINK
+
+   in the driver's Kconfig stanza.
+
+3. Add::
+
+	#include <linux/phylink.h>
+
+   to the driver's list of header files.
+
+4. Add::
+
+	struct phylink *phylink;
+	struct phylink_config phylink_config;
+
+   to the driver's private data structure.  We shall refer to the
+   driver's private data pointer as ``priv`` below, and the driver's
+   private data structure as ``struct foo_priv``.
+
+5. Replace the following functions:
+
+   .. flat-table::
+    :header-rows: 1
+    :widths: 1 1
+    :stub-columns: 0
+
+    * - Original function
+      - Replacement function
+    * - phy_start(phydev)
+      - phylink_start(priv->phylink)
+    * - phy_stop(phydev)
+      - phylink_stop(priv->phylink)
+    * - phy_mii_ioctl(phydev, ifr, cmd)
+      - phylink_mii_ioctl(priv->phylink, ifr, cmd)
+    * - phy_ethtool_get_wol(phydev, wol)
+      - phylink_ethtool_get_wol(priv->phylink, wol)
+    * - phy_ethtool_set_wol(phydev, wol)
+      - phylink_ethtool_set_wol(priv->phylink, wol)
+    * - phy_disconnect(phydev)
+      - phylink_disconnect_phy(priv->phylink)
+
+   Please note that some of these functions must be called under the
+   rtnl lock, and will warn if not. This will normally be the case,
+   except if these are called from the driver suspend/resume paths.
+
+6. Add/replace ksettings get/set methods with:
+
+   .. code-block:: c
+
+	static int foo_ethtool_set_link_ksettings(struct net_device *dev,
+						  const struct ethtool_link_ksettings *cmd)
+	{
+		struct foo_priv *priv = netdev_priv(dev);
+	
+		return phylink_ethtool_ksettings_set(priv->phylink, cmd);
+	}
+
+	static int foo_ethtool_get_link_ksettings(struct net_device *dev,
+						  struct ethtool_link_ksettings *cmd)
+	{
+		struct foo_priv *priv = netdev_priv(dev);
+	
+		return phylink_ethtool_ksettings_get(priv->phylink, cmd);
+	}
+
+7. Replace the call to::
+
+	phy_dev = of_phy_connect(dev, node, link_func, flags, phy_interface);
+
+   and associated code with a call to::
+
+	err = phylink_of_phy_connect(priv->phylink, node, flags);
+
+   For the most part, ``flags`` can be zero; these flags are passed to
+   the phy_attach_direct() inside this function call if a PHY is specified
+   in the DT node ``node``.
+
+   ``node`` should be the DT node which contains the network phy property,
+   fixed link properties, and will also contain the sfp property.
+
+   The setup of fixed links should also be removed; these are handled
+   internally by phylink.
+
+   of_phy_connect() was also passed a function pointer for link updates.
+   This function is replaced by a different form of MAC updates
+   described below in (8).
+
+   Manipulation of the PHY's supported/advertised happens within phylink
+   based on the validate callback, see below in (8).
+
+   Note that the driver no longer needs to store the ``phy_interface``,
+   and also note that ``phy_interface`` becomes a dynamic property,
+   just like the speed, duplex etc. settings.
+
+   Finally, note that the MAC driver has no direct access to the PHY
+   anymore; that is because in the phylink model, the PHY can be
+   dynamic.
+
+8. Add a :c:type:`struct phylink_mac_ops <phylink_mac_ops>` instance to
+   the driver, which is a table of function pointers, and implement
+   these functions. The old link update function for
+   :c:func:`of_phy_connect` becomes three methods: :c:func:`mac_link_up`,
+   :c:func:`mac_link_down`, and :c:func:`mac_config`. If step 1 was
+   performed, then the functionality will have been split there.
+
+   It is important that if in-band negotiation is used,
+   :c:func:`mac_link_up` and :c:func:`mac_link_down` do not prevent the
+   in-band negotiation from completing, since these functions are called
+   when the in-band link state changes - otherwise the link will never
+   come up.
+
+   The :c:func:`validate` method should mask the supplied supported mask,
+   and ``state->advertising`` with the supported ethtool link modes.
+   These are the new ethtool link modes, so bitmask operations must be
+   used. For an example, see ``drivers/net/ethernet/marvell/mvneta.c``.
+
+   The :c:func:`mac_link_state` method is used to read the link state
+   from the MAC, and report back the settings that the MAC is currently
+   using. This is particularly important for in-band negotiation
+   methods such as 1000base-X and SGMII.
+
+   The :c:func:`mac_link_up` method is used to inform the MAC that the
+   link has come up. The call includes the negotiation mode and interface
+   for reference only. The finalised link parameters are also supplied
+   (speed, duplex and flow control/pause enablement settings) which
+   should be used to configure the MAC when the MAC and PCS are not
+   tightly integrated, or when the settings are not coming from in-band
+   negotiation.
+
+   The :c:func:`mac_config` method is used to update the MAC with the
+   requested state, and must avoid unnecessarily taking the link down
+   when making changes to the MAC configuration.  This means the
+   function should modify the state and only take the link down when
+   absolutely necessary to change the MAC configuration.  An example
+   of how to do this can be found in :c:func:`mvneta_mac_config` in
+   ``drivers/net/ethernet/marvell/mvneta.c``.
+
+   For further information on these methods, please see the inline
+   documentation in :c:type:`struct phylink_mac_ops <phylink_mac_ops>`.
+
+9. Remove calls to of_parse_phandle() for the PHY,
+   of_phy_register_fixed_link() for fixed links etc. from the probe
+   function, and replace with:
+
+   .. code-block:: c
+
+	struct phylink *phylink;
+	priv->phylink_config.dev = &dev.dev;
+	priv->phylink_config.type = PHYLINK_NETDEV;
+
+	phylink = phylink_create(&priv->phylink_config, node, phy_mode, &phylink_ops);
+	if (IS_ERR(phylink)) {
+		err = PTR_ERR(phylink);
+		fail probe;
+	}
+
+	priv->phylink = phylink;
+
+   and arrange to destroy the phylink in the probe failure path as
+   appropriate and the removal path too by calling:
+
+   .. code-block:: c
+
+	phylink_destroy(priv->phylink);
+
+10. Arrange for MAC link state interrupts to be forwarded into
+    phylink, via:
+
+    .. code-block:: c
+
+	phylink_mac_change(priv->phylink, link_is_up);
+
+    where ``link_is_up`` is true if the link is currently up or false
+    otherwise. If a MAC is unable to provide these interrupts, then
+    it should set ``priv->phylink_config.pcs_poll = true;`` in step 9.
+
+11. Verify that the driver does not call::
+
+	netif_carrier_on()
+	netif_carrier_off()
+
+   as these will interfere with phylink's tracking of the link state,
+   and cause phylink to omit calls via the :c:func:`mac_link_up` and
+   :c:func:`mac_link_down` methods.
+
+Network drivers should call phylink_stop() and phylink_start() via their
+suspend/resume paths, which ensures that the appropriate
+:c:type:`struct phylink_mac_ops <phylink_mac_ops>` methods are called
+as necessary.
