Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski: "Core & protocols:
- Wrap datapath globals into net_aligned_data, to avoid false sharing
- Preserve MSG_ZEROCOPY in forwarding (e.g. out of a container)
- Add SO_INQ and SCM_INQ support to AF_UNIX
- Add SIOCINQ support to AF_VSOCK
- Add TCP_MAXSEG sockopt to MPTCP

- Make TCP validation of whether packet fully fits in the receive window and the rcv_buf more strict. With increased use of HW aggregation a single "packet" can be multiple 100s of kB
- Add MSG_MORE flag to optimize large TCP transmissions via sockmap, improves latency up to 33% for sockmap users

- Improve BPF iteration over TCP sockets to see each socket exactly once
- Remove obsolete and unused TCP RFC3517/RFC6675 loss recovery code

- MCTP: add support for gateway routing, improve bind() handling
- Don't require rtnl_lock when fetching an IPv6 neighbor over Netlink

- Support NUD_PERMANENT for proxy neighbor entries
- Add a new queuing discipline for IETF RFC9332 DualQ Coupled AQM
- Add sequence numbers to netconsole messages. Unregister netconsole's console when all net targets are removed. Code refactoring. Add a number of selftests

Merge branch 'add-support-for-25g-50g-and-100g-to-fbnic'
Alexander Duyck says:
==================== Add support for 25G, 50G, and 100G to fbnic
The fbnic driver up till now had avoided actually reporting link as the phylink setup only supported up to 40G configurations. This changeset is meant to start addressing that by adding support for 50G and 100G interface types.
With that basic support added fbnic can then set those types based on the EEPROM configuration provided by the firmware and then report those speeds out using the information provided via the phylink call for getting the link ksettings. This provides the basic MAC support and enables supporting the speeds as well as configuring flow control.
After this I plan to add support for a PHY that will represent the SerDes PHY being used to manage the link as we need a way to indicate link training into phylink to prevent link flaps on the PCS while the SerDes is in training, and then after that I will look at rolling support for our PCS/PMA into the XPCS driver. ====================

fbnic: Retire "AUTO" flags and cleanup handling of FW link settings
There were several issues in the way we were handling the link info coming from firmware.
First is the fact that we were carrying around "AUTO" flags to indicate that we needed to populate the values. We can just drop this and assume that we will always be populating the settings from firmware. With this we can also clean up the masking as the "AUTO" flags were just there to be stripped anyway.
Second since we are getting rid of the "AUTO" setting we still need a way to report that the link is not configured. We convert the link_mode "AUTO" to "UNKNOWN" to do this. With this we can avoid reporting link up in the phylink_pcs_get_state call as we will just set link to 0 and return without updating the link speed. This is preferred versus the driver just forcing 50G which makes it harder to recover when the FW does start providing valid settings.
With this the plan is to eventually replace the link_mode we use with the interface_mode from phylink for all intents and purposes and have the two be interchangeable. At that point we can convert the FW provided settings over to something closer to link partner settings and give phylink greater control of the interface allowing for user override of the settings and an asynchronous setup of the link versus having to pull early settings from firmware.

Merge tag 'net-next-6.16' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next
Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni: "Core:
- Implement the Device Memory TCP transmit path, allowing zero-copy data transmission on top of TCP from e.g. GPU memory to the wire.
- Move all the IPv6 routing tables management outside the RTNL scope, under its own lock and RCU. The route control path is now 3x times faster.
- Convert queue related netlink ops to instance lock, reducing again the scope of the RTNL lock. This improves the control plane scalability.
- Refactor the software crc32c implementation, removing unneeded abstraction layers and improving significantly the related micro-benchmarks.
- Optimize the GRO engine for UDP-tunneled traffic, for a 10% performance improvement in related stream tests.
- Cover more per-CPU storage with local nested BH locking; this is a prep work to remove the current per-CPU lock in local_bh_disable() on PREMPT_RT.
- Introduce and use nlmsg_payload helper, combining buffer bounds verification with accessing payload carried by netlink messages.
Netfilter:
- Rewrite the procfs conntrack table implementation, improving considerably the dump performance. A lot of user-space tools still use this interface.
- Implement support for wildcard netdevice in netdev basechain and flowtables.
- Integrate conntrack information into nft trace infrastructure.
- Export set count and backend name to userspace, for better introspection.
BPF:
- BPF qdisc support: BPF-qdisc can be implemented with BPF struct_ops programs and can be controlled in similar way to traditional qdiscs using the "tc qdisc" command.
- Refactor the UDP socket iterator, addressing long standing issues WRT duplicate hits or missed sockets.
Protocols:
- Improve TCP receive buffer auto-tuning and increase the default upper bound for the receive buffer; overall this improves the single flow maximum thoughput on 200Gbs link by over 60%.
- Add AFS GSSAPI security class to AF_RXRPC; it provides transport security for connections to the AFS fileserver and VL server.
- Improve TCP multipath routing, so that the sources address always matches the nexthop device.
- Introduce SO_PASSRIGHTS for AF_UNIX, to allow disabling SCM_RIGHTS, and thus preventing DoS caused by passing around problematic FDs.
- Retire DCCP socket. DCCP only receives updates for bugs, and major distros disable it by default. Its removal allows for better organisation of TCP fields to reduce the number of cache lines hit in the fast path.
- Extend TCP drop-reason support to cover PAWS checks.
Driver API:
- Reorganize PTP ioctl flag support to require an explicit opt-in for the drivers, avoiding the problem of drivers not rejecting new unsupported flags.
- Converted several device drivers to timestamping APIs.
- Introduce per-PHY ethtool dump helpers, improving the support for dump operations targeting PHYs.
Tests and tooling:
- Add support for classic netlink in user space C codegen, so that ynl-c can now read, create and modify links, routes addresses and qdisc layer configuration.
- Add ynl sub-types for binary attributes, allowing ynl-c to output known struct instead of raw binary data, clarifying the classic netlink output.
- Extend MPTCP selftests to improve the code-coverage.
- Add tests for XDP tail adjustment in AF_XDP.
New hardware / drivers:
- OpenVPN virtual driver: offload OpenVPN data channels processing to the kernel-space, increasing the data transfer throughput WRT the user-space implementation.
- Renesas glue driver for the gigabit ethernet RZ/V2H(P) SoC.
- Broadcom asp-v3.0 ethernet driver.
- AMD Renoir ethernet device.
- ReakTek MT9888 2.5G ethernet PHY driver.
- Aeonsemi 10G C45 PHYs driver.
Drivers:

Merge tag 'asoc-v6.16' of https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/sound into for-next
ASoC: Updates for v6.16
The changes in this release are quite large, mainly in drivers rather than the core. This is partly due to cleanups that touch a lot of drivers and partly due to several relatively large new drivers.
- Support for automatically enumerating DAIs from standards conforming SoundWire SDCA devices, further work is required for these to be useful in an actual card. - Conversion of quite a few drivers to newer GPIO APIs. - More helpers and cleanups from Mormimoto-san. - Support for a wider range of AVS platforms. - Support for AMD ACP 7.x platforms, Cirrus Logic CS35L63 and CS48L32, Everest Semiconductor ES8389, Longsoon-1 AC'97 controllers, nVidia Tegra264, Richtek ALC203 and RT9123 and Rockchip SAI controllers.
