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.

Governed +files are licensed under the GPL.

If you add your code to governed files, and don't +want it to be owned by Hans Reiser, put your copyright label on that +code so the poor blight and his customers can keep things straight. +All portions of governed files not labeled otherwise are owned by Hans +Reiser, and by adding your code to it, widely distributing it to +others or sending us a patch, and leaving the sentence in stating that +licensing is governed by the statement in this file, you accept this. +It will be a kindness if you identify whether Hans Reiser is allowed +to license code labeled as owned by you on your behalf other than +under the GPL, because he wants to know if it is okay to do so and put +a check in the mail to you (for non-trivial improvements) when he +makes his next sale. He makes no guarantees as to the amount if any, +though he feels motivated to motivate contributors, and you can surely +discuss this with him before or after contributing. You have the +right to decline to allow him to license your code contribution other +than under the GPL. + +Further licensing options are available for commercial and/or other +interests directly from Hans Reiser: hans@reiser.to. If you interpret +the GPL as not allowing those additional licensing options, you read +it wrongly, and Richard Stallman agrees with me, when carefully read +you can see that those restrictions on additional terms do not apply +to the owner of the copyright, and my interpretation of this shall +govern for this license. + +Finally, nothing in this license shall be interpreted to allow you to +fail to fairly credit me, or to remove my credits, without my +permission, unless you are an end user not redistributing to others. +If you have doubts about how to properly do that, or about what is +fair, ask. (Last I spoke with him Richard was contemplating how best +to address the fair crediting issue in the next GPL version.) + +[END LICENSING] + +Reiserfs is a file system based on balanced tree algorithms, which is +described at https://reiser4.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Main_Page + +Stop reading here. Go there, then return. + +Send bug reports to yura@namesys.botik.ru. + +mkreiserfs and other utilities are in reiserfs/utils, or wherever your +Linux provider put them. There is some disagreement about how useful +it is for users to get their fsck and mkreiserfs out of sync with the +version of reiserfs that is in their kernel, with many important +distributors wanting them out of sync.:-) Please try to remember to +recompile and reinstall fsck and mkreiserfs with every update of +reiserfs, this is a common source of confusion. Note that some of the +utilities cannot be compiled without accessing the balancing code +which is in the kernel code, and relocating the utilities may require +you to specify where that code can be found. + +Yes, if you update your reiserfs kernel module you do have to +recompile your kernel, most of the time. The errors you get will be +quite cryptic if your forget to do so. + +Real users, as opposed to folks who want to hack and then understand +what went wrong, will want REISERFS_CHECK off. + +Hideous Commercial Pitch: Spread your development costs across other OS +vendors. Select from the best in the world, not the best in your +building, by buying from third party OS component suppliers. Leverage +the software component development power of the internet. Be the most +aggressive in taking advantage of the commercial possibilities of +decentralized internet development, and add value through your branded +integration that you sell as an operating system. Let your competitors +be the ones to compete against the entire internet by themselves. Be +hip, get with the new economic trend, before your competitors do. Send +email to hans@reiser.to. + +To understand the code, after reading the website, start reading the +code by reading reiserfs_fs.h first. + +Hans Reiser was the project initiator, primary architect, source of all +funding for the first 5.5 years, and one of the programmers. He owns +the copyright. + +Vladimir Saveljev was one of the programmers, and he worked long hours +writing the cleanest code. He always made the effort to be the best he +could be, and to make his code the best that it could be. What resulted +was quite remarkable. I don't think that money can ever motivate someone +to work the way he did, he is one of the most selfless men I know. + +Yura helps with benchmarking, coding hashes, and block pre-allocation +code. + +Anatoly Pinchuk is a former member of our team who worked closely with +Vladimir throughout the project's development. He wrote a quite +substantial portion of the total code. He realized that there was a +space problem with packing tails of files for files larger than a node +that start on a node aligned boundary (there are reasons to want to node +align files), and he invented and implemented indirect items and +unformatted nodes as the solution. + +Konstantin Shvachko, with the help of the Russian version of a VC, +tried to put me in a position where I was forced into giving control +of the project to him. (Fortunately, as the person paying the money +for all salaries from my dayjob I owned all copyrights, and you can't +really force takeovers of sole proprietorships.) This was something +curious, because he never really understood the value of our project, +why we should do what we do, or why innovation was possible in +general, but he was sure that he ought to be controlling it. Every +innovation had to be forced past him while he was with us. He added +two years to the time required to complete reiserfs, and was a net +loss for me. Mikhail Gilula was a brilliant innovator who also left +in a destructive way that erased the value of his contributions, and +that he was shown much generosity just makes it more painful. + +Grigory Zaigralin was an extremely effective system administrator for +our group. + +Igor Krasheninnikov was wonderful at hardware procurement, repair, and +network installation. + +Jeremy Fitzhardinge wrote the teahash.c code, and he gives credit to a +textbook he got the algorithm from in the code. Note that his analysis +of how we could use the hashing code in making 32 bit NFS cookies work +was probably more important than the actual algorithm. Colin Plumb also +contributed to it. + +Chris Mason dived right into our code, and in just a few months produced +the journaling code that dramatically increased the value of ReiserFS. +He is just an amazing programmer. + +Igor Zagorovsky is writing much of the new item handler and extent code +for our next major release. + +Alexander Zarochentcev (sometimes known as zam, or sasha), wrote the +resizer, and is hard at work on implementing allocate on flush. SGI +implemented allocate on flush before us for XFS, and generously took +the time to convince me we should do it also. They are great people, +and a great company. + +Yuri Shevchuk and Nikita Danilov are doing squid cache optimization. + +Vitaly Fertman is doing fsck. + +Jeff Mahoney, of SuSE, contributed a few cleanup fixes, most notably +the endian safe patches which allow ReiserFS to run on any platform +supported by the Linux kernel. + +SuSE, IntegratedLinux.com, Ecila, MP3.com, bigstorage.com, and the +Alpha PC Company made it possible for me to not have a day job +anymore, and to dramatically increase our staffing. Ecila funded +hypertext feature development, MP3.com funded journaling, SuSE funded +core development, IntegratedLinux.com funded squid web cache +appliances, bigstorage.com funded HSM, and the alpha PC company funded +the alpha port. Many of these tasks were helped by sponsors other +than the ones just named. SuSE has helped in much more than just +funding.... + |
