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.

+
+Arguments
+=========
+
+``fd``
+ File descriptor returned by :c:func:`open()`.
+
+``argp``
+ Pointer to struct :c:type:`v4l2_edid`.
+
+Description
+===========
+
+These ioctls can be used to get or set an EDID associated with an input
+from a receiver or an output of a transmitter device. They can be used
+with subdevice nodes (/dev/v4l-subdevX) or with video nodes
+(/dev/videoX).
+
+When used with video nodes the ``pad`` field represents the input (for
+video capture devices) or output (for video output devices) index as is
+returned by :ref:`VIDIOC_ENUMINPUT` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_ENUMOUTPUT` respectively. When used
+with subdevice nodes the ``pad`` field represents the input or output
+pad of the subdevice. If there is no EDID support for the given ``pad``
+value, then the ``EINVAL`` error code will be returned.
+
+To get the EDID data the application has to fill in the ``pad``,
+``start_block``, ``blocks`` and ``edid`` fields, zero the ``reserved``
+array and call :ref:`VIDIOC_G_EDID <VIDIOC_G_EDID>`. The current EDID from block
+``start_block`` and of size ``blocks`` will be placed in the memory
+``edid`` points to. The ``edid`` pointer must point to memory at least
+``blocks`` * 128 bytes large (the size of one block is 128 bytes).
+
+If there are fewer blocks than specified, then the driver will set
+``blocks`` to the actual number of blocks. If there are no EDID blocks
+available at all, then the error code ``ENODATA`` is set.
+
+If blocks have to be retrieved from the sink, then this call will block
+until they have been read.
+
+If ``start_block`` and ``blocks`` are both set to 0 when
+:ref:`VIDIOC_G_EDID <VIDIOC_G_EDID>` is called, then the driver will set ``blocks`` to the
+total number of available EDID blocks and it will return 0 without
+copying any data. This is an easy way to discover how many EDID blocks
+there are.
+
+.. note::
+
+ If there are no EDID blocks available at all, then
+ the driver will set ``blocks`` to 0 and it returns 0.
+
+To set the EDID blocks of a receiver the application has to fill in the
+``pad``, ``blocks`` and ``edid`` fields, set ``start_block`` to 0 and
+zero the ``reserved`` array. It is not possible to set part of an EDID,
+it is always all or nothing. Setting the EDID data is only valid for
+receivers as it makes no sense for a transmitter.
+
+The driver assumes that the full EDID is passed in. If there are more
+EDID blocks than the hardware can handle then the EDID is not written,
+but instead the error code ``E2BIG`` is set and ``blocks`` is set to the
+maximum that the hardware supports. If ``start_block`` is any value
+other than 0 then the error code ``EINVAL`` is set.
+
+To disable an EDID you set ``blocks`` to 0. Depending on the hardware
+this will drive the hotplug pin low and/or block the source from reading
+the EDID data in some way. In any case, the end result is the same: the
+EDID is no longer available.

+
+ * - __u32
+ - ``pad``
+ - Pad for which to get/set the EDID blocks. When used with a video
+ device node the pad represents the input or output index as
+ returned by :ref:`VIDIOC_ENUMINPUT` and
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_ENUMOUTPUT` respectively.
+ * - __u32
+ - ``start_block``
+ - Read the EDID from starting with this block. Must be 0 when
+ setting the EDID.
+ * - __u32
+ - ``blocks``
+ - The number of blocks to get or set. Must be less or equal to 256
+ (the maximum number of blocks as defined by the standard). When
+ you set the EDID and ``blocks`` is 0, then the EDID is disabled or
+ erased.
+ * - __u32
+ - ``reserved``\ [5]
+ - Reserved for future extensions. Applications and drivers must set
+ the array to zero.
+ * - __u8 *
+ - ``edid``
+ - Pointer to memory that contains the EDID. The minimum size is
+ ``blocks`` * 128.
+
+Return Value
+============
+
+On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set
+appropriately. The generic error codes are described at the
+:ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter.
+
+``ENODATA``
+ The EDID data is not available.
+
+``E2BIG``
+ The EDID data you provided is more than the hardware can handle.
