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.

+Arch Support
+============
+
+Currently, the Rust compiler (``rustc``) uses LLVM for code generation,
+which limits the supported architectures that can be targeted. In addition,
+support for building the kernel with LLVM/Clang varies (please see
+Documentation/kbuild/llvm.rst). This support is needed for ``bindgen``
+which uses ``libclang``.
+
+Below is a general summary of architectures that currently work. Level of
+support corresponds to ``S`` values in the ``MAINTAINERS`` file.
+
+============  ================  ==============================================
+Architecture  Level of support  Constraints

+
+Coding Guidelines
+=================
+
+This document describes how to write Rust code in the kernel.
+
+
+Style & formatting
+------------------
+
+The code should be formatted using ``rustfmt``. In this way, a person
+contributing from time to time to the kernel does not need to learn and
+remember one more style guide. More importantly, reviewers and maintainers
+do not need to spend time pointing out style issues anymore, and thus
+less patch roundtrips may be needed to land a change.
+
+.. note:: Conventions on comments and documentation are not checked by
+  ``rustfmt``. Thus those are still needed to be taken care of.
+
+The default settings of ``rustfmt`` are used. This means the idiomatic Rust
+style is followed. For instance, 4 spaces are used for indentation rather
+than tabs.
+
+It is convenient to instruct editors/IDEs to format while typing,
+when saving or at commit time. However, if for some reason reformatting
+the entire kernel Rust sources is needed at some point, the following can be
+run::
+
+	make LLVM=1 rustfmt
+
+It is also possible to check if everything is formatted (printing a diff
+otherwise), for instance for a CI, with::
+
+	make LLVM=1 rustfmtcheck
+
+Like ``clang-format`` for the rest of the kernel, ``rustfmt`` works on
+individual files, and does not require a kernel configuration. Sometimes it may
+even work with broken code.
+
+
+Comments
+--------
+
+"Normal" comments (i.e. ``//``, rather than code documentation which starts
+with ``///`` or ``//!``) are written in Markdown the same way as documentation
+comments are, even though they will not be rendered. This improves consistency,
+simplifies the rules and allows to move content between the two kinds of
+comments more easily. For instance:
+
+.. code-block:: rust
+
+	// `object` is ready to be handled now.
+	f(object);
+
+Furthermore, just like documentation, comments are capitalized at the beginning
+of a sentence and ended with a period (even if it is a single sentence). This
+includes ``// SAFETY:``, ``// TODO:`` and other "tagged" comments, e.g.:
+
+.. code-block:: rust
+
+	// FIXME: The error should be handled properly.
+
+Comments should not be used for documentation purposes: comments are intended
+for implementation details, not users. This distinction is useful even if the
+reader of the source file is both an implementor and a user of an API. In fact,
+sometimes it is useful to use both comments and documentation at the same time.
+For instance, for a ``TODO`` list or to comment on the documentation itself.
+For the latter case, comments can be inserted in the middle; that is, closer to
+the line of documentation to be commented. For any other case, comments are
+written after the documentation, e.g.:
+
+.. code-block:: rust
+
+	/// Returns a new [`Foo`].
+	///
+	/// # Examples
+	///
+	// TODO: Find a better example.
+	/// ```
+	/// let foo = f(42);
+	/// ```
+	// FIXME: Use fallible approach.
+	pub fn f(x: i32) -> Foo {
+	    // ...
+	}
+
+One special kind of comments are the ``// SAFETY:`` comments. These must appear
+before every ``unsafe`` block, and they explain why the code inside the block is
+correct/sound, i.e. why it cannot trigger undefined behavior in any case, e.g.:
+
+.. code-block:: rust
+
+	// SAFETY: `p` is valid by the safety requirements.
+	unsafe { *p = 0; }
+
+``// SAFETY:`` comments are not to be confused with the ``# Safety`` sections
+in code documentation. ``# Safety`` sections specify the contract that callers
+(for functions) or implementors (for traits) need to abide by. ``// SAFETY:``
+comments show why a call (for functions) or implementation (for traits) actually
+respects the preconditions stated in a ``# Safety`` section or the language
+reference.
+
+
+Code documentation
+------------------
+
+Rust kernel code is not documented like C kernel code (i.e. via kernel-doc).
+Instead, the usual system for documenting Rust code is used: the ``rustdoc``
+tool, which uses Markdown (a lightweight markup language).
+
+To learn Markdown, there are many guides available out there. For instance,
+the one at:
+
+	https://commonmark.org/help/
+
+This is how a well-documented Rust function may look like:
+
+.. code-block:: rust
+
+	/// Returns the contained [`Some`] value, consuming the `self` value,
+	/// without checking that the value is not [`None`].
+	///
+	/// # Safety
+	///
+	/// Calling this method on [`None`] is *[undefined behavior]*.
+	///
+	/// [undefined behavior]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/reference/behavior-considered-undefined.html
+	///
+	/// # Examples
+	///
+	/// ```
+	/// let x = Some("air");
+	/// assert_eq!(unsafe { x.unwrap_unchecked() }, "air");
+	/// ```
+	pub unsafe fn unwrap_unchecked(self) -> T {
+	    match self {
+	        Some(val) => val,
+
+	        // SAFETY: The safety contract must be upheld by the caller.
+	        None => unsafe { hint::unreachable_unchecked() },
+	    }
+	}
+
+This example showcases a few ``rustdoc`` features and some conventions followed
+in the kernel:
+
+  - The first paragraph must be a single sentence briefly describing what
+    the documented item does. Further explanations must go in extra paragraphs.
+
+  - Unsafe functions must document their safety preconditions under
+    a ``# Safety`` section.
+
+  - While not shown here, if a function may panic, the conditions under which
+    that happens must be described under a ``# Panics`` section.
+
+    Please note that panicking should be very rare and used only with a good
+    reason. In almost all cases, a fallible approach should be used, typically
+    returning a ``Result``.
+
+  - If providing examples of usage would help readers, they must be written in
+    a section called ``# Examples``.
+
+  - Rust items (functions, types, constants...) must be linked appropriately
+    (``rustdoc`` will create a link automatically).
+
+  - Any ``unsafe`` block must be preceded by a ``// SAFETY:`` comment
+    describing why the code inside is sound.
+
+    While sometimes the reason might look trivial and therefore unneeded,
+    writing these comments is not just a good way of documenting what has been
+    taken into account, but most importantly, it provides a way to know that
+    there are no *extra* implicit constraints.
+
+To learn more about how to write documentation for Rust and extra features,
+please take a look at the ``rustdoc`` book at:
+
+	https://doc.rust-lang.org/rustdoc/how-to-write-documentation.html
+
+
+Naming
+------
+
+Rust kernel code follows the usual Rust naming conventions:
+
+	https://rust-lang.github.io/api-guidelines/naming.html
+
+When existing C concepts (e.g. macros, functions, objects...) are wrapped into
+a Rust abstraction, a name as close as reasonably possible to the C side should
+be used in order to avoid confusion and to improve readability when switching
+back and forth between the C and Rust sides. For instance, macros such as
+``pr_info`` from C are named the same in the Rust side.
+
+Having said that, casing should be adjusted to follow the Rust naming
+conventions, and namespacing introduced by modules and types should not be
+repeated in the item names. For instance, when wrapping constants like:
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+	#define GPIO_LINE_DIRECTION_IN	0
+	#define GPIO_LINE_DIRECTION_OUT	1
+
+The equivalent in Rust may look like (ignoring documentation):
+
+.. code-block:: rust
+
+	pub mod gpio {
+	    pub enum LineDirection {
+	        In = bindings::GPIO_LINE_DIRECTION_IN as _,
+	        Out = bindings::GPIO_LINE_DIRECTION_OUT as _,
+	    }
+	}
+
+That is, the equivalent of ``GPIO_LINE_DIRECTION_IN`` would be referred to as
+``gpio::LineDirection::In``. In particular, it should not be named
+``gpio::gpio_line_direction::GPIO_LINE_DIRECTION_IN``.

+General Information
+===================
+
+This document contains useful information to know when working with
+the Rust support in the kernel.
+
+
+Code documentation
+------------------
+
+Rust kernel code is documented using ``rustdoc``, its built-in documentation
+generator.
+
+The generated HTML docs include integrated search, linked items (e.g. types,
+functions, constants), source code, etc. They may be read at (TODO: link when
+in mainline and generated alongside the rest of the documentation):
+
+	http://kernel.org/
+
+The docs can also be easily generated and read locally. This is quite fast
+(same order as compiling the code itself) and no special tools or environment
+are needed. This has the added advantage that they will be tailored to
+the particular kernel configuration used. To generate them, use the ``rustdoc``
+target with the same invocation used for compilation, e.g.::
+
+	make LLVM=1 rustdoc
+
+To read the docs locally in your web browser, run e.g.::
+
+	xdg-open rust/doc/kernel/index.html
+
+To learn about how to write the documentation, please see coding-guidelines.rst.
+
+
+Extra lints
+-----------
+
+While ``rustc`` is a very helpful compiler, some extra lints and analyses are
+available via ``clippy``, a Rust linter. To enable it, pass ``CLIPPY=1`` to
+the same invocation used for compilation, e.g.::
+
+	make LLVM=1 CLIPPY=1
+
+Please note that Clippy may change code generation, thus it should not be
+enabled while building a production kernel.
+
+
+Abstractions vs. bindings
+-------------------------
+
+Abstractions are Rust code wrapping kernel functionality from the C side.
+
+In order to use functions and types from the C side, bindings are created.
+Bindings are the declarations for Rust of those functions and types from
+the C side.
+
+For instance, one may write a ``Mutex`` abstraction in Rust which wraps
+a ``struct mutex`` from the C side and calls its functions through the bindings.
+
+Abstractions are not available for all the kernel internal APIs and concepts,
+but it is intended that coverage is expanded as time goes on. "Leaf" modules
+(e.g. drivers) should not use the C bindings directly. Instead, subsystems
+should provide as-safe-as-possible abstractions as needed.
+
+
+Conditional compilation
+-----------------------
+
+Rust code has access to conditional compilation based on the kernel
+configuration:
+
+.. code-block:: rust
+
+	#[cfg(CONFIG_X)]       // Enabled               (`y` or `m`)
+	#[cfg(CONFIG_X="y")]   // Enabled as a built-in (`y`)
+	#[cfg(CONFIG_X="m")]   // Enabled as a module   (`m`)
+	#[cfg(not(CONFIG_X))]  // Disabled

+Quick Start
+===========
+
+This document describes how to get started with kernel development in Rust.
+
+
+Requirements: Building
+----------------------
+
+This section explains how to fetch the tools needed for building.
+
+Some of these requirements might be available from Linux distributions
+under names like ``rustc``, ``rust-src``, ``rust-bindgen``, etc. However,
+at the time of writing, they are likely not to be recent enough unless
+the distribution tracks the latest releases.
+
+To easily check whether the requirements are met, the following target
+can be used::
+
+	make LLVM=1 rustavailable
+
+This triggers the same logic used by Kconfig to determine whether
+``RUST_IS_AVAILABLE`` should be enabled; but it also explains why not
+if that is the case.
+
+
+rustc
+*****
+
+A particular version of the Rust compiler is required. Newer versions may or
+may not work because, for the moment, the kernel depends on some unstable
+Rust features.
+
+If ``rustup`` is being used, enter the checked out source code directory
+and run::
+
+	rustup override set $(scripts/min-tool-version.sh rustc)
+
+Otherwise, fetch a standalone installer or install ``rustup`` from:
+
+	https://www.rust-lang.org
+
+
+Rust standard library source
+****************************
+
+The Rust standard library source is required because the build system will
+cross-compile ``core`` and ``alloc``.
+
+If ``rustup`` is being used, run::
+
+	rustup component add rust-src
+
+The components are installed per toolchain, thus upgrading the Rust compiler
+version later on requires re-adding the component.
+
+Otherwise, if a standalone installer is used, the Rust repository may be cloned
+into the installation folder of the toolchain::
+
+	git clone --recurse-submodules \
+		--branch $(scripts/min-tool-version.sh rustc) \
+		https://github.com/rust-lang/rust \
+		$(rustc --print sysroot)/lib/rustlib/src/rust
+
+In this case, upgrading the Rust compiler version later on requires manually
+updating this clone.
+
+
+libclang
+********
+
+``libclang`` (part of LLVM) is used by ``bindgen`` to understand the C code
+in the kernel, which means LLVM needs to be installed; like when the kernel
+is compiled with ``CC=clang`` or ``LLVM=1``.
+
+Linux distributions are likely to have a suitable one available, so it is
+best to check that first.
+
+There are also some binaries for several systems and architectures uploaded at:
+
+	https://releases.llvm.org/download.html
+
+Otherwise, building LLVM takes quite a while, but it is not a complex process:
+
+	https://llvm.org/docs/GettingStarted.html#getting-the-source-code-and-building-llvm
+
+Please see Documentation/kbuild/llvm.rst for more information and further ways
+to fetch pre-built releases and distribution packages.
+
+
+bindgen
+*******
+
+The bindings to the C side of the kernel are generated at build time using
+the ``bindgen`` tool. A particular version is required.
+
+Install it via (note that this will download and build the tool from source)::
+
+	cargo install --locked --version $(scripts/min-tool-version.sh bindgen) bindgen
+
+
+Requirements: Developing
+------------------------
+
+This section explains how to fetch the tools needed for developing. That is,
+they are not needed when just building the kernel.
+
+
+rustfmt
+*******
+
+The ``rustfmt`` tool is used to automatically format all the Rust kernel code,
+including the generated C bindings (for details, please see
+coding-guidelines.rst).
+
+If ``rustup`` is being used, its ``default`` profile already installs the tool,
+thus nothing needs to be done. If another profile is being used, the component
+can be installed manually::
+
+	rustup component add rustfmt
+
+The standalone installers also come with ``rustfmt``.
+
+
+clippy
+******
+
+``clippy`` is a Rust linter. Running it provides extra warnings for Rust code.
+It can be run by passing ``CLIPPY=1`` to ``make`` (for details, please see
+general-information.rst).
+
+If ``rustup`` is being used, its ``default`` profile already installs the tool,
+thus nothing needs to be done. If another profile is being used, the component
+can be installed manually::
+
+	rustup component add clippy
+
+The standalone installers also come with ``clippy``.
+
+
+cargo
+*****
+
+``cargo`` is the Rust native build system. It is currently required to run
+the tests since it is used to build a custom standard library that contains
+the facilities provided by the custom ``alloc`` in the kernel. The tests can
+be run using the ``rusttest`` Make target.
+
+If ``rustup`` is being used, all the profiles already install the tool,
+thus nothing needs to be done.
+
+The standalone installers also come with ``cargo``.
+
+
+rustdoc
+*******
+
+``rustdoc`` is the documentation tool for Rust. It generates pretty HTML
+documentation for Rust code (for details, please see
+general-information.rst).
+
+``rustdoc`` is also used to test the examples provided in documented Rust code
+(called doctests or documentation tests). The ``rusttest`` Make target uses
+this feature.
+
+If ``rustup`` is being used, all the profiles already install the tool,
+thus nothing needs to be done.
+
+The standalone installers also come with ``rustdoc``.
+
+
+rust-analyzer
+*************
+
+The `rust-analyzer <https://rust-analyzer.github.io/>`_ language server can
+be used with many editors to enable syntax highlighting, completion, go to
+definition, and other features.
+
+``rust-analyzer`` needs a configuration file, ``rust-project.json``, which
+can be generated by the ``rust-analyzer`` Make target.
+
+
+Configuration
+-------------
+
+``Rust support`` (``CONFIG_RUST``) needs to be enabled in the ``General setup``
+menu. The option is only shown if a suitable Rust toolchain is found (see
+above), as long as the other requirements are met. In turn, this will make
+visible the rest of options that depend on Rust.
+
+Afterwards, go to::
+
+	Kernel hacking
+	    -> Sample kernel code
+	        -> Rust samples
+
+And enable some sample modules either as built-in or as loadable.
+
+
+Building
+--------
+
+Building a kernel with a complete LLVM toolchain is the best supported setup
+at the moment. That is::
+
+	make LLVM=1
+
+For architectures that do not support a full LLVM toolchain, use::
+
+	make CC=clang
+
+Using GCC also works for some configurations, but it is very experimental at
+the moment.
+
+
+Hacking
+-------
+
+To dive deeper, take a look at the source code of the samples
+at ``samples/rust/``, the Rust support code under ``rust/`` and
+the ``Rust hacking`` menu under ``Kernel hacking``.
+
+If GDB/Binutils is used and Rust symbols are not getting demangled, the reason
+is the toolchain does not support Rust's new v0 mangling scheme yet.
+There are a few ways out:
+
+  - Install a newer release (GDB >= 10.2, Binutils >= 2.36).
+
+  - Some versions of GDB (e.g. vanilla GDB 10.1) are able to use
+    the pre-demangled names embedded in the debug info (``CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO``).
