Core & protocols
----------------
- Replace busylock at the Tx queuing layer with a lockless list. Resulting
in a 300% (4x) improvement on heavy TX workloads, sending twice the
number of packets per second, for half the cpu cycles.
- Allow constantly busy flows to migrate to a more suitable CPU/NIC
queue. Normally we perform queue re-selection when flow comes out
of idle, but under extreme circumstances the flows may be constantly
busy. Add sysctl to allow periodic rehashing even if it'd risk packet
reordering.
- Optimize the NAPI skb cache, make it larger, use it in more paths.
- Attempt returning Tx skbs to the originating CPU (like we already did
for Rx skbs).
- Various data structure layout and prefetch optimizations from Eric.
- Remove ktime_get() from the recvmsg() fast path, ktime_get() is sadly
quite expensive on recent AMD machines.
- Extend threaded NAPI polling to allow the kthread busy poll for packets.
- Make MPTCP use Rx backlog processing. This lowers the lock pressure,
improving the Rx performance.
- Support memcg accounting of MPTCP socket memory.
- Allow admin to opt sockets out of global protocol memory accounting
(using a sysctl or BPF-based policy). The global limits are a poor fit
for modern container workloads, where limits are imposed using cgroups.
- Improve heuristics for when to kick off AF_UNIX garbage collection.
- Allow users to control TCP SACK compression, and default to 33% of RTT.
- Add tcp_rcvbuf_low_rtt sysctl to let datacenter users avoid unnecessarily
aggressive rcvbuf growth and overshot when the connection RTT is low.
- Preserve skb metadata space across skb_push / skb_pull operations.
- Support for IPIP encapsulation in the nftables flowtable offload.
- Support appending IP interface information to ICMP messages (RFC 5837).
- Support setting max record size in TLS (RFC 8449).
- Remove taking rtnl_lock from RTM_GETNEIGHTBL and RTM_SETNEIGHTBL.
- Use a dedicated lock (and RCU) in MPLS, instead of rtnl_lock.
- Let users configure the number of write buffers in SMC.
- Add new struct sockaddr_unsized for sockaddr of unknown length,
from Kees.
- Some conversions away from the crypto_ahash API, from Eric Biggers.
- Some preparations for slimming down struct page.
- YAML Netlink protocol spec for WireGuard.
- Add a tool on top of YAML Netlink specs/lib for reporting commonly
computed derived statistics and summarized system state.
Driver API
----------

as defined by the OPEN Alliance's "Advanced diagnostic features
for 100BASE-T1 automotive Ethernet PHYs" specification.
- Add DPLL phase-adjust-gran pin attribute (and implement it in zl3073x).
- Refactor xfrm_input lock to reduce contention when NIC offloads IPsec
and performs RSS.

This patch adds a near[1] complete YNL specification for WireGuard,
documenting the protocol in a machine-readable format, rather than
comments in wireguard.h, and eases usage from C and non-C programming
languages alike.
The generated C library will be featured in a later patch, so in
this patch I will use the in-kernel python client for examples.
This makes the documentation in the UAPI header redundant, it is
therefore removed. The in-line documentation in the spec is based
on the existing comment in wireguard.h, and once released it will
be available in the kernel documentation at:
https://docs.kernel.org/netlink/specs/wireguard.html
(until then run: make htmldocs)
Generate wireguard.rst from this spec:
$ make -C tools/net/ynl/generated/ wireguard.rst
Query wireguard interface through pyynl:
$ sudo ./tools/net/ynl/pyynl/cli.py --family wireguard \
--dump get-device \
--json '{"ifindex":3}'
[{'fwmark': 0,
'ifindex': 3,
'ifname': 'wg-test',
'listen-port': 54318,
'peers': [{0: {'allowedips': [{0: {'cidr-mask': 0,

{0: {'cidr-mask': 0,

'public-key': '[...]',
'rx-bytes': 42,
'tx-bytes': 42}}],
'private-key': '[...]',

Add another allowed IP prefix:
$ sudo ./tools/net/ynl/pyynl/cli.py --family wireguard \
--do set-device --json '{"ifindex":3,"peers":[
{"public-key":"6a df b1 83 a4 ..","allowedips":[
{"cidr-mask":0,"family":10,"ipaddr":"::"}]}]}'
[1] As can be seen above, the "endpoint" is only dumped as binary data,
as it can't be fully described in YNL. It's either a struct
sockaddr_in or struct sockaddr_in6 depending on the attribute length.

The fix commit converted several IPv4 address attributes from binary
to u32, but forgot to specify byte-order: big-endian. Without this,
YNL tools display IPv4 addresses incorrectly due to host-endian
interpretation.
Add the missing byte-order: big-endian to all affected u32 IPv4
address fields to ensure correct parsing and display.

Support querying and resetting to default param values.
Introduce two new devlink netlink attrs:
DEVLINK_ATTR_PARAM_VALUE_DEFAULT and
DEVLINK_ATTR_PARAM_RESET_DEFAULT. The former is used to contain an
optional parameter value inside of the param_value nested
attribute. The latter is used in param-set requests from userspace to
indicate that the driver should reset the param to its default value.
To implement this, two new functions are added to the devlink driver
api: devlink_param::get_default() and
devlink_param::reset_default(). These callbacks allow drivers to
implement default param actions for runtime and permanent cmodes. For
driverinit params, the core latches the last value set by a driver via
devl_param_driverinit_value_set(), and uses that as the default value
for a param.
Because default parameter values are optional, it would be impossible
to discern whether or not a param of type bool has default value of
false or not provided if the default value is encoded using a netlink
flag type. For this reason, when a DEVLINK_PARAM_TYPE_BOOL has an
associated default value, the default value is encoded using a u8
type.

Since commit 1b255e1bea ("tools: ynl: add ipv4-or-v6 display hint"), we
can display either IPv4 or IPv6 addresses for a single field based on the
address family. However, most dual-stack fields still use the ipv4 display
hint. This update changes them to use the new ipv4-or-v6 display hint and
converts IPv4-only fields to use the u32 type.
Field changes:
- v4-or-v6
- IFA_ADDRESS, IFA_LOCAL
- IFLA_GRE_LOCAL, IFLA_GRE_REMOTE
- IFLA_VTI_LOCAL, IFLA_VTI_REMOTE
- IFLA_IPTUN_LOCAL, IFLA_IPTUN_REMOTE

Adds DEVLINK_ESWITCH_MODE_SWITCHDEV_INACTIVE attribute to UAPI and
documentation.
Before having traffic flow through an eswitch, a user may want to have the
ability to block traffic towards the FDB until FDB is fully programmed and
the user is ready to send traffic to it. For example: when two eswitches
are present for vports in a multi-PF setup, one eswitch may take over the
traffic from the other when the user chooses.
Before this take over, a user may want to first program the inactive
eswitch and then once ready redirect traffic to this new eswitch.
switchdev modes transition semantics:
legacy->switchdev_inactive: Create switchdev mode normally, traffic not
allowed to flow yet.
switchdev_inactive->switchdev: Enable traffic to flow.
switchdev->switchdev_inactive: Block traffic on the FDB, FDB and
representros state and content is preserved.
When eswitch is configured to this mode, traffic is ignored/dropped on
this eswitch FDB, while current configuration is kept, e.g FDB rules and
netdev representros are kept available, FDB programming is allowed.
Example:
# start inactive switchdev
devlink dev eswitch set pci/0000:08:00.1 mode switchdev_inactive

Introduce the userspace entry point for PHY MSE diagnostics via
ethtool netlink. This exposes the core API added previously and
returns both capability information and one or more snapshots.
Userspace sends ETHTOOL_MSG_MSE_GET. The reply carries:
- ETHTOOL_A_MSE_CAPABILITIES: scale limits and timing information
- ETHTOOL_A_MSE_CHANNEL_* nests: one or more snapshots (per-channel
if available, otherwise WORST, otherwise LINK)
Link down returns -ENETDOWN.
Changes:
- YAML: add attribute sets (mse, mse-capabilities, mse-snapshot)
and the mse-get operation
- UAPI (generated): add ETHTOOL_A_MSE_* enums and message IDs,
ETHTOOL_MSG_MSE_GET/REPLY
- ethtool core: add net/ethtool/mse.c implementing the request,
register genl op, and hook into ethnl dispatch
- docs: document MSE_GET in ethtool-netlink.rst
The include/uapi/linux/ethtool_netlink_generated.h is generated
from Documentation/netlink/specs/ethtool.yaml.

Add a new state NAPI_STATE_THREADED_BUSY_POLL to the NAPI state enum to
enable and disable threaded busy polling.
When threaded busy polling is enabled for a NAPI, enable
NAPI_STATE_THREADED also.
When the threaded NAPI is scheduled, set NAPI_STATE_IN_BUSY_POLL to
signal napi_complete_done not to rearm interrupts.
Whenever NAPI_STATE_THREADED_BUSY_POLL is unset, the
NAPI_STATE_IN_BUSY_POLL will be unset, napi_complete_done unsets the
NAPI_STATE_SCHED_THREADED bit also, which in turn will make the kthread

since the initial implementation.
This spec inconsistency caused issues with the C YNL code generator.

its energy model. It notifies the userspace program when a performance
domain is created or deleted or its energy model is updated through a
multicast interface.
Specifically, it supports two commands:
- EM_CMD_GET_PDS: Get the list of information for all performance
domains.
- EM_CMD_GET_PD_TABLE: Get the energy model table of a performance
domain.
Also, it supports three notification events:
- EM_CMD_PD_CREATED: When a performance domain is created.
- EM_CMD_PD_DELETED: When a performance domain is deleted.
- EM_CMD_PD_UPDATED: When the energy model table of a performance domain
is updated.

for 6.18-rc1. Loads of different stuff in here, it was a busy
development cycle in lots of different subsystems, with over 27k new
lines added to the tree. Included in here are:
- IIO updates including new drivers, reworking of existing apis, and
other goodness in the sensor subsystems
- MEI driver updates and additions
- NVMEM driver updates
- slimbus removal for an unused driver and some other minor
updates
- coresight driver updates and additions
- MHI driver updates
- comedi driver updates and fixes
- extcon driver updates
- interconnect driver additions
- eeprom driver updates and fixes
- minor UIO driver updates
- tiny W1 driver updates
But the majority of new code is in the rust bindings and additions,
which includes:
- misc driver rust binding updates for read/write support, we can now
write "normal" misc drivers in rust fully, and the sample driver
shows how this can be done.
- Initial framework for USB driver rust bindings, which are disabled
for now in the build, due to limited support, but coming in through
this tree due to dependencies on other rust binding changes that
were in here. I'll be enabling these back on in the build in the
usb.git tree after -rc1 is out so that developers can continue to
work on these in linux-next over the next development cycle.
- Android Binder driver implemented in Rust. This is the big one, and
was driving a huge majority of the rust binding work over the past
years. Right now there are 2 binder drivers in the kernel, selected
only at build time as to which one to use as binder wants to be
included in the system at boot time. The binder C maintainers all
agreed on this, as eventually, they want the C code to be removed from
the tree, but it will take a few releases to get there while both
are maintained to ensure that the rust implementation is fully
stable and compliant with the existing userspace apis.
All of these have been in linux-next for a while, with only minor merge
issues showing up (you will hit them as well.) Just accept both sides
of the merge, it's just some header and include file lines, nothing
major.

Various network interface types make use of needed_{head,tail}room values
to efficiently reserve buffer space for additional encapsulation headers,
such as VXLAN, Geneve, IPSec, etc. However, it is not currently possible
to query these values in a generic way.
Introduce ability to query the needed_{head,tail}room values of a network
device via rtnetlink, such that applications that may wish to use these
values can do so.
For example, Cilium agent iterates over present devices based on user config
(direct routing, vxlan, geneve, wireguard etc.) and in future will configure
netkit in order to expose the needed_{head,tail}room into K8s pods. See

It looks like there's a typo in conntrack spec: attribute set conntrack-attrs
defines attributes "counters-{orig,reply}" (plural), while get operation
references "counter-{orig,reply}" (singular). The latter should be fixed, as it
denotes multiple counters (packet and byte). The corresonding C define is
CTA_COUNTERS_ORIG.
Also, dump request references "nfgen-family" attribute, which neither exists in
conntrack-attrs attrset nor ctattr_type enum. There's member of nfgenmsg struct
with the same name, which is where family value is actually taken from.

In YAML, it is allowed to declare a scalar strings at the next lines
without explicitly declaring them as a block. Yet, they looks weird, and
can cause issues when ':' or '#' are present.
The modified lines didn't have issues with the special characters, but
it seems better to explicitly declare such blocks as scalar strings to
encourage people to "properly" declare future scalar strings.
The right angle bracket is used with a minus sign to indicate that the
folded style should be used without adding extra newlines. By doing
that, the output is not changed compared to what was done before this
patch.

By default, strings defined in YAML at the next line are folded:
newlines are replaced by spaces. Here, the newlines are there for a
reason, and should be kept in the output.
This can be fixed by adding the '|' symbol to use the "literal" style.
This issue was introduced by commit 387724cbf4 ("Documentation:
netlink: add a YAML spec for team"), but visible in the doc only since
the parent commit.
To avoid warnings when generating the HTML output, and to look better,
the code layout is now in a dedicated code block, which requires '::'
and a new blank line. Just for a question of uniformity, a new blank
line is also added after the code block.

During the connection establishment, a peer can tell the other one that
it cannot establish new subflows to the initial IP address and port by
setting the 'C' flag [1]. Doing so makes sense when the sender is behind
a strict NAT, operating behind a legacy Layer 4 load balancer, or using
anycast IP address for example.
When this 'C' flag is set, the path-managers must then not try to
establish new subflows to the other peer's initial IP address and port.
The in-kernel PM has access to this info, but the userspace PM didn't.
The RFC8684 [1] is strict about that:
(...) therefore the receiver MUST NOT try to open any additional
subflows toward this address and port.
So it is important to tell the userspace about that as it is responsible
for the respect of this flag.
When a new connection is created and established, the Netlink events
now contain the existing but not currently used 'flags' attribute. When
MPTCP_PM_EV_FLAG_DENY_JOIN_ID0 is set, it means no other subflows
to the initial IP address and port -- info that are also part of the
event -- can be established.

no known implementations trying to send more, it therefore

Enable configuration of the burst period — a time window starting
from the first error recovery, during which the reporter allows
recovery attempts for each reported error.
This feature is helpful when a single underlying issue causes multiple
errors, as it delays the start of the grace period to allow sufficient
time for recovering all related errors. For example, if multiple TX
queues time out simultaneously, a sufficient burst period could allow
all affected TX queues to be recovered within that window. Without this
period, only the first TX queue that reports a timeout will undergo
recovery, while the remaining TX queues will be blocked once the grace
period begins.
Configuration example:
$ devlink health set pci/0000:00:09.0 reporter tx burst_period 500
Configuration example with ynl:
./tools/net/ynl/pyynl/cli.py \

The usage of underscores is no longer allowed for the 'name' format in
the yaml spec. Instead, dashes should be used. This fixes the build
issue reported by Thorsten that showed up on linux-next.
Note this change has no impact on C code.

Introduce a generic netlink multicast event to report binder transaction
failures to userspace. This allows subscribers to monitor these events
and take appropriate actions, such as stopping a misbehaving application
that is spamming a service with huge amount of transactions.
The multicast event contains full details of the failed transactions,
including the sender/target PIDs, payload size and specific error code.
This interface is defined using a YAML spec, from which the UAPI and
kernel headers and source are auto-generated.

Some modern NICs support including the IPv6 Flow Label in
the flow hash for RSS queue selection. This is outside
the old "Microsoft spec", but was included in the OCP NIC spec:
[ ] RSS include flow label in the hash (configurable)
https://www.opencompute.org/w/index.php?title=Core_Offloads#Receive_Side_Scaling
RSS Flow Label hashing allows TCP Protective Load Balancing (PLB)
to recover from receiver congestion / overload.
Rx CPU/queue hotspots are relatively common for data ingest
workloads, and so far we had to try to detect the condition
at the RPC layer and reopen the connection. PLB lets us change
the Flow Label and therefore Rx CPU on RTO, with minimal packet
reordering. PLB reaction times are much faster, and can happen
at any point in the connection, not just at RPC boundaries.
Due to the nature of host processing (relatively long queues,
other kernel subsystems masking IRQs for 100s of msecs)
the risk of reordering within the host is higher than in
the network. But for applications which need it - it is far
preferable to potentially persistent overload of subset of
queues.
It is expected that the hash communicated to the host
may change if the Flow Label changes. This may be surprising
to some host software, but I don't expect the devices
can compute two Toeplitz hashes, one with the Flow Label
for queue selection and one without for the rx hash
communicated to the host. Besides, changing the hash
may potentially help to change the path thru host queues.
User can disable NETIF_F_RXHASH if they require a stable
flow hash.
The name RXH_IP6_FL was chosen based on what we call
Flow Label variables in IPv6 processing (fl). I prefer
fl_lbl but that appears to be an fbnic-only spelling.
We could spell out RXH_IP6_FLOW_LABEL but existing
RXH_ defines are a lot more terse.
Willem notes [1] that Flow Label is defined as identifying the flow
and therefore including both the flow label _and_ the L4 header
fields is not generally necessary. But it should not hurt so
it's not explicitly prevented if the driver supports hashing
on both at the same time.

Implement removing additional RSS contexts via Netlink.
Technically it'd be possible to shoehorn the delete operation
into ethnl_request_ops-compatible handler. The code ends
up longer than open coded version, and I think we'll need
a custom way of sending notifications at some stage (if we
allow tying the context lifetime to the netlink socket, in
the future).

Support creating contexts via Netlink. Setting flow hashing
fields on the new context is not supported at this stage,
it can be added later.
An empty indirection table is not supported. This is a carry
over from the IOCTL interface where empty indirection table
meant delete. We can repurpose empty indirection table in
Netlink but for now to avoid confusion reject it using the
policy.
Support letting user choose the ID for the new context. This was
not possible in IOCTL since the context ID field for the create
action had to be set to the ETH_RXFH_CONTEXT_ALLOC magic value.

Add support for ETHTOOL_SRXFH (setting hashing fields) in RSS_SET.
The tricky part is dealing with symmetric hashing. In netlink user
can change the hashing fields and symmetric hash in one request,
in IOCTL the two used to be set via different uAPI requests.
Since fields and hash function config are still separate driver
callbacks - changes to the two are not atomic. Keep things simple
and validate the settings against both pre- and post- change ones.
Meaning that we will reject the config request if user tries
to correct the flow fields and set input_xfrm in one request,
or disables input_xfrm and makes flow fields non-symmetric.
We can adjust it later if there's a real need. Starting simple feels
right, and potentially partially applying the settings isn't nice,
either.
