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.

+# This script is designed for testing the SRv6 H.Encaps.Red behavior.
+#
+# Below is depicted the IPv6 network of an operator which offers advanced
+# IPv4/IPv6 VPN services to hosts, enabling them to communicate with each
+# other.
+# In this example, hosts hs-1 and hs-2 are connected through an IPv4/IPv6 VPN
+# service, while hs-3 and hs-4 are connected using an IPv6 only VPN.
+#
+# Routers rt-1,rt-2,rt-3 and rt-4 implement IPv4/IPv6 L3 VPN services
+# leveraging the SRv6 architecture. The key components for such VPNs are:
+#
+#   i) The SRv6 H.Encaps.Red behavior applies SRv6 Policies on traffic received
+#      by connected hosts, initiating the VPN tunnel. Such a behavior is an
+#      optimization of the SRv6 H.Encap aiming to reduce the length of the SID
+#      List carried in the pushed SRH. Specifically, the H.Encaps.Red removes
+#      the first SID contained in the SID List (i.e. SRv6 Policy) by storing it
+#      into the IPv6 Destination Address. When a SRv6 Policy is made of only one
+#      SID, the SRv6 H.Encaps.Red behavior omits the SRH at all and pushes that
+#      SID directly into the IPv6 DA;
+#
+#  ii) The SRv6 End behavior advances the active SID in the SID List carried by
+#      the SRH;
+#
+# iii) The SRv6 End.DT46 behavior is used for removing the SRv6 Policy and,
+#      thus, it terminates the VPN tunnel. Such a behavior is capable of
+#      handling, at the same time, both tunneled IPv4 and IPv6 traffic.

+#
+# Every fcf0:0:x:y::/64 network interconnects the SRv6 routers rt-x with rt-y
+# in the IPv6 operator network.
+#
+# Local SID table
+# ===============
+#
+# Each SRv6 router is configured with a Local SID table in which SIDs are
+# stored. Considering the given SRv6 router rt-x, at least two SIDs are
+# configured in the Local SID table:
+#
+#   Local SID table for SRv6 router rt-x
+#   +----------------------------------------------------------+
+#   |fcff:x::e is associated with the SRv6 End behavior        |
+#   |fcff:x::d46 is associated with the SRv6 End.DT46 behavior |
+#   +----------------------------------------------------------+
+#
+# The fcff::/16 prefix is reserved by the operator for implementing SRv6 VPN
+# services. Reachability of SIDs is ensured by proper configuration of the IPv6
+# operator's network and SRv6 routers.
+#
+# # SRv6 Policies
+# ===============
+#
+# An SRv6 ingress router applies SRv6 policies to the traffic received from a
+# connected host. SRv6 policy enforcement consists of encapsulating the
+# received traffic into a new IPv6 packet with a given SID List contained in
+# the SRH.
+#
+# IPv4/IPv6 VPN between hs-1 and hs-2
+# -----------------------------------
+#
+# Hosts hs-1 and hs-2 are connected using dedicated IPv4/IPv6 VPNs.
+# Specifically, packets generated from hs-1 and directed towards hs-2 are
+# handled by rt-1 which applies the following SRv6 Policies:
+#
+#   i.a) IPv6 traffic, SID List=fcff:3::e,fcff:4::e,fcff:2::d46
+#  ii.a) IPv4 traffic, SID List=fcff:2::d46
+#
+# Policy (i.a) steers tunneled IPv6 traffic through SRv6 routers
+# rt-3,rt-4,rt-2. Instead, Policy (ii.a) steers tunneled IPv4 traffic through
+# rt-2.
+# The H.Encaps.Red reduces the SID List (i.a) carried in SRH by removing the
+# first SID (fcff:3::e) and pushing it into the IPv6 DA. In case of IPv4
+# traffic, the H.Encaps.Red omits the presence of SRH at all, since the SID
+# List (ii.a) consists of only one SID that can be stored directly in the IPv6
+# DA.
+#
+# On the reverse path (i.e. from hs-2 to hs-1), rt-2 applies the following
+# policies:
+#
+#   i.b) IPv6 traffic, SID List=fcff:1::d46
+#  ii.b) IPv4 traffic, SID List=fcff:4::e,fcff:3::e,fcff:1::d46
+#
+# Policy (i.b) steers tunneled IPv6 traffic through the SRv6 router rt-1.
+# Conversely, Policy (ii.b) steers tunneled IPv4 traffic through SRv6 routers
+# rt-4,rt-3,rt-1.
+# The H.Encaps.Red omits the SRH at all in case of (i.b) by pushing the single
+# SID (fcff::1::d46) inside the IPv6 DA.
+# The H.Encaps.Red reduces the SID List (ii.b) in the SRH by removing the first
+# SID (fcff:4::e) and pushing it into the IPv6 DA.
+#
+# In summary:
+#  hs-1->hs-2 |IPv6 DA=fcff:3::e|SRH SIDs=fcff:4::e,fcff:2::d46|IPv6|...| (i.a)
+#  hs-1->hs-2 |IPv6 DA=fcff:2::d46|IPv4|...|                              (ii.a)
+#
+#  hs-2->hs-1 |IPv6 DA=fcff:1::d46|IPv6|...|                              (i.b)
+#  hs-2->hs-1 |IPv6 DA=fcff:4::e|SRH SIDs=fcff:3::e,fcff:1::d46|IPv4|...| (ii.b)
+#
+#
+# IPv6 VPN between hs-3 and hs-4
+# ------------------------------
+#
+# Hosts hs-3 and hs-4 are connected using a dedicated IPv6 only VPN.
+# Specifically, packets generated from hs-3 and directed towards hs-4 are
+# handled by rt-3 which applies the following SRv6 Policy:
+#
+#  i.c) IPv6 traffic, SID List=fcff:2::e,fcff:4::d46
+#
+# Policy (i.c) steers tunneled IPv6 traffic through SRv6 routers rt-2,rt-4.
+# The H.Encaps.Red reduces the SID List (i.c) carried in SRH by pushing the
+# first SID (fcff:2::e) in the IPv6 DA.
+#
+# On the reverse path (i.e. from hs-4 to hs-3) the router rt-4 applies the
+# following SRv6 Policy:
+#
+#  i.d) IPv6 traffic, SID List=fcff:1::e,fcff:3::d46.
+#
+# Policy (i.d) steers tunneled IPv6 traffic through SRv6 routers rt-1,rt-3.
+# The H.Encaps.Red reduces the SID List (i.d) carried in SRH by pushing the
+# first SID (fcff:1::e) in the IPv6 DA.
+#
+# In summary:
+#  hs-3->hs-4 |IPv6 DA=fcff:2::e|SRH SIDs=fcff:4::d46|IPv6|...| (i.c)
+#  hs-4->hs-3 |IPv6 DA=fcff:1::e|SRH SIDs=fcff:3::d46|IPv6|...| (i.d)
