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.

==================== qed deadcoding
This is a set of deadcode removals for the qed ethernet device. I've tried to avoid removing anything that are trivial firmware wrappers.
One odd one I've not removed is qed_bw_update(), it doesn't seem to be called but looks like the only caller of the bw_update(..) method which qedf does define. Perhaps qed_bw_update is supposed to be called somewhere? ====================

Merge tag '5.17-net-next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next
Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski: "Core ----
- Defer freeing TCP skbs to the BH handler, whenever possible, or at least perform the freeing outside of the socket lock section to decrease cross-CPU allocator work and improve latency.
- Add netdevice refcount tracking to locate sources of netdevice and net namespace refcount leaks.
- Make Tx watchdog less intrusive - avoid pausing Tx and restarting all queues from a single CPU removing latency spikes.
- Various small optimizations throughout the stack from Eric Dumazet.
- Make netdev->dev_addr[] constant, force modifications to go via appropriate helpers to allow us to keep addresses in ordered data structures.
- Replace unix_table_lock with per-hash locks, improving performance of bind() calls.
- Extend skb drop tracepoint with a drop reason.
- Allow SO_MARK and SO_PRIORITY setsockopt under CAP_NET_RAW.
BPF ---
- New helpers: - bpf_find_vma(), find and inspect VMAs for profiling use cases - bpf_loop(), runtime-bounded loop helper trading some execution time for much faster (if at all converging) verification - bpf_strncmp(), improve performance, avoid compiler flakiness - bpf_get_func_arg(), bpf_get_func_ret(), bpf_get_func_arg_cnt() for tracing programs, all inlined by the verifier
- Support BPF relocations (CO-RE) in the kernel loader.
- Further the support for BTF_TYPE_TAG annotations.
- Allow access to local storage in sleepable helpers.
- Convert verifier argument types to a composable form with different attributes which can be shared across types (ro, maybe-null).
- Prepare libbpf for upcoming v1.0 release by cleaning up APIs, creating new, extensible ones where missing and deprecating those to be removed.
Protocols ---------
- WiFi (mac80211/cfg80211): - notify user space about long "come back in N" AP responses, allow it to react to such temporary rejections - allow non-standard VHT MCS 10/11 rates - use coarse time in airtime fairness code to save CPU cycles
- Bluetooth: - rework of HCI command execution serialization to use a common queue and work struct, and improve handling errors reported in the middle of a batch of commands - rework HCI event handling to use skb_pull_data, avoiding packet parsing pitfalls - support AOSP Bluetooth Quality Report
- SMC: - support net namespaces, following the RDMA model - improve connection establishment latency by pre-clearing buffers - introduce TCP ULP for automatic redirection to SMC
- Multi-Path TCP: - support ioctls: SIOCINQ, OUTQ, and OUTQNSD - support socket options: IP_TOS, IP_FREEBIND, IP_TRANSPARENT, IPV6_FREEBIND, and IPV6_TRANSPARENT, TCP_CORK and TCP_NODELAY - support cmsgs: TCP_INQ - improvements in the data scheduler (assigning data to subflows) - support fastclose option (quick shutdown of the full MPTCP connection, similar to TCP RST in regular TCP)
- MCTP (Management Component Transport) over serial, as defined by DMTF spec DSP0253 - "MCTP Serial Transport Binding".
Driver API ----------
- Support timestamping on bond interfaces in active/passive mode.
- Introduce generic phylink link mode validation for drivers which don't have any quirks and where MAC capability bits fully express what's supported. Allow PCS layer to participate in the validation. Convert a number of drivers.
- Add support to set/get size of buffers on the Rx rings and size of the tx copybreak buffer via ethtool.
- Support offloading TC actions as first-class citizens rather than only as attributes of filters, improve sharing and device resource utilization.
- WiFi (mac80211/cfg80211): - support forwarding offload (ndo_fill_forward_path) - support for background radar detection hardware - SA Query Procedures offload on the AP side
New hardware / drivers ----------------------
