Merge tag 'net-next-6.17' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next
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
- Add IPv6 force_forwarding sysctl to enable forwarding per interface
- 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
- Convert TCP send queue handling from tasklet to BH workque
- Improve BPF iteration over TCP sockets to see each socket exactly once
- Remove obsolete and unused TCP RFC3517/RFC6675 loss recovery code
- Support enabling kernel threads for NAPI processing on per-NAPI instance basis rather than a whole device. Fully stop the kernel NAPI thread when threaded NAPI gets disabled. Previously thread would stick around until ifdown due to tricky synchronization
- Allow multicast routing to take effect on locally-generated packets
- Add output interface argument for End.X in segment routing
- MCTP: add support for gateway routing, improve bind() handling
- Don't require rtnl_lock when fetching an IPv6 neighbor over Netlink
- Add a new neighbor flag ("extern_valid"), which cedes refresh responsibilities to userspace. This is needed for EVPN multi-homing where a neighbor entry for a multi-homed host needs to be synced across all the VTEPs among which the host is multi-homed
- 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
- Align IPSec inbound SA lookup to RFC 4301. Only SPI and protocol should be used for an inbound SA lookup
- Support inspecting ref_tracker state via DebugFS
- Don't force bonding advertisement frames tx to ~333 ms boundaries. Add broadcast_neighbor option to send ARP/ND on all bonded links
- Allow providing upcall pid for the 'execute' command in openvswitch
- Remove DCCP support from Netfilter's conntrack
- Disallow multiple packet duplications in the queuing layer
- Prevent use of deprecated iptables code on PREEMPT_RT
Driver API:
- Support RSS and hashing configuration over ethtool Netlink
- Add dedicated ethtool callbacks for getting and setting hashing fields
- Add support for power budget evaluation strategy in PSE / Power-over-Ethernet. Generate Netlink events for overcurrent etc
- Support DPLL phase offset monitoring across all device inputs. Support providing clock reference and SYNC over separate DPLL inputs
- Support traffic classes in devlink rate API for bandwidth management
- Remove rtnl_lock dependency from UDP tunnel port configuration
Device drivers:
- Add a new Broadcom driver for 800G Ethernet (bnge)

Merge branch 'ipv6-drop-rtnl-from-mcast-c-and-anycast-c'
Kuniyuki Iwashima says:
==================== ipv6: Drop RTNL from mcast.c and anycast.c
This is a prep series for RCU conversion of RTM_NEWNEIGH, which needs RTNL during neigh_table.{pconstructor,pdestructor}() touching IPv6 multicast code.
Currently, IPv6 multicast code is protected by lock_sock() and inet6_dev->mc_lock, and RTNL is not actually needed.
In addition, anycast code is also in the same situation and does not need RTNL at all.
This series removes RTNL from net/ipv6/{mcast.c,anycast.c} and finally removes setsockopt_needs_rtnl() from do_ipv6_setsockopt().

ipv6: mcast: Don't hold RTNL for MCAST_ socket options.
In ip6_mc_source() and ip6_mc_msfilter(), per-socket mld data is protected by lock_sock() and inet6_dev->mc_lock is also held for some per-interface functions.
ip6_mc_find_dev_rtnl() only depends on RTNL. If we want to remove it, we need to check inet6_dev->dead under mc_lock to close the race with addrconf_ifdown(), as mentioned earlier.
Let's do that and drop RTNL for the rest of MCAST_ socket options.
Note that ip6_mc_msfilter() has unnecessary lock dances and they are integrated into one to avoid the last-minute error and simplify the error handling.

Let's use dev_get_by_index() and drop RTNL for IPV6_ADD_MEMBERSHIP and MCAST_JOIN_GROUP.
Note that we must call rt6_lookup() and dev_hold() under RCU.
If rt6_lookup() returns an entry from the exception table, dst_dev_put() could change rt->dev.dst to loopback concurrently, and the original device could lose the refcount before dev_hold() and unblock device registration.
dst_dev_put() is called from NETDEV_UNREGISTER and synchronize_net() follows it, so as long as rt6_lookup() and dev_hold() are called within the same RCU critical section, the dev is alive.
Even if the race happens, they are synchronised by idev->dead and mcast addresses are cleaned up.
For the racy access to rt->dst.dev, we use dst_dev().

Merge tag 'net-next-6.12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next
Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski: "The zero-copy changes are relatively significant, but regression risk should be contained. The feature needs to be used to cause trouble.
Also it feels like we got an order of magnitude more semi-automated "refactoring" chaff than usual, I wonder if it's just us.
Core & protocols:
- Support Device Memory TCP, ability to zero-copy receive TCP payloads to a DMABUF region of memory while packet headers land separately in normal kernel buffers, and TCP processes then as usual.
- The ability to read the PTP PHC (Physical Hardware Clock) alongside MONOTONIC_RAW timestamps with PTP_SYS_OFFSET_EXTENDED. Previously only CLOCK_REALTIME was supported.
- Allow matching on all bits of IP DSCP for routing decisions. Previously we only supported on matching TOS bits in IPv4 which is a narrower interpretation of the same header field.
- Increase the range of weights used for multi-path routing from 8 bits to 16 bits.
- Add support for IPv6 PIO p flag in the Prefix Information Option per draft-ietf-6man-pio-pflag.
- IPv6 IOAM6 support for new tunsrc encap mode for better performance.
- Detect destinations which blackhole MPTCP traffic and avoid initiating MPTCP connections to them for a certain period of time, 1h by default.
- Improve IPsec control path performance by removing the inexact policies list.
- AF_VSOCK: add support for SIOCOUTQ ioctl.
- Add enum for reasons TCP reset was sent for easier tracing.
- Add SMC ringbufs usage statistics.
Drivers:
- Handle netconsole setup failures more gracefully, don't fail loading, retain the specified target as disabled.
- Extend bonding's IPsec offload pass thru capabilities (ESN, stats).
Filtering:
- Add TCP_BPF_SOCK_OPS_CB_FLAGS to bpf_*sockopt() to address the case when long-lived sockets miss a chance to set additional callbacks if a sockops program was not attached early in their lifetime.
- Support using BPF skb helpers in tracepoints.
- Conntrack Netlink: support CTA_FILTER for flush.
- Improve SCTP support in nfnetlink_queue.
- Improve performance of large nftables flush transactions.
Things we sprinkled into general kernel code:
- selftests: support setting an "interpreter" for script files; make it easy to run as separate cases tests where one "interpreter" is fed various test descriptions (in our case packet sequences).
Driver API:
- Extend core and ethtool APIs to support many PHYs connected to a single interface (PHY topologies).
- Extend cable diagnostics to specify whether Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR) or Active Link Cable Diagnostic (ALCD) was used.
- Add library for implementing MAC-PHY Ethernet drivers for SPI devices compatible with Open Alliance 10BASE-T1x MAC-PHY Serial Interface (TC6) standard.
