Now that the 'flags' attribute is used, it seems interesting to add one
flag for 'server-side', a boolean value.
This is duplicating the info from the dedicated 'server-side' attribute,
but it will be deprecated in the next commit, and removed in a few
versions.

This attribute is a boolean. No need to add it to set it to 'false'.
Indeed, the default value when this attribute is not set is naturally
'false'. A few bytes can then be saved by not adding this attribute if
the connection is not on the server side.
This prepares the future deprecation of its attribute, in favour of a
new flag.

Commit 6138e687c7 ("ptp: Introduce strict checking of external time stamp
options.") added the PTP_STRICT_FLAGS to the set of flags supported for the
external timestamp request ioctl.
It is only supported by PTP_EXTTS_REQUEST2, as it was introduced the
introduction of the new ioctls. Further, the kernel has always set this
flag for PTP_EXTTS_REQUEST2 regardless of whether or not the user requested
the behavior.
This effectively means that the flag is not useful for userspace. If the
user issues a PTP_EXTTS_REQUEST ioctl, the flag is ignored due to not being
supported on the old ioctl. If the user issues a PTP_EXTTS_REQUEST2 ioctl,
the flag will be set by the kernel regardless of whether the user set the
flag in their structure.
Add a comment documenting this behavior in the uAPI header file.

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
b9ed315d3c ("netkit: Allow for configuring needed_{head,tail}room").

Add the ability to install PSP Rx and Tx crypto keys on TCP
connections. Netlink ops are provided for both operations.
Rx side combines allocating a new Rx key and installing it
on the socket. Theoretically these are separate actions,
but in practice they will always be used one after the
other. We can add distinct "alloc" and "install" ops later.

The Accurate ECN allows echoing back the sum of bytes for
each IP ECN field value in the received packets using
AccECN option. This change implements AccECN option tx & rx
side processing without option send control related features
that are added by a later change.
Based on specification:
https://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-ietf-tcpm-accurate-ecn-28.txt
(Some features of the spec will be added in the later changes
rather than in this one).
A full-length AccECN option is always attempted but if it does
not fit, the minimum length is selected based on the counters
that have changed since the last update. The AccECN option
(with 24-bit fields) often ends in odd sizes so the option
write code tries to take advantage of some nop used to pad
the other TCP options.
The delivered_ecn_bytes pairs with received_ecn_bytes similar
to how delivered_ce pairs with received_ce. In contrast to
ACE field, however, the option is not always available to update
delivered_ecn_bytes. For ACK w/o AccECN option, the delivered
bytes calculated based on the cumulative ACK+SACK information
are assigned to one of the counters using an estimation
heuristic to select the most likely ECN byte counter. Any
estimation error is corrected when the next AccECN option
arrives. It may occur that the heuristic gets too confused
when there are enough different byte counter deltas between
ACKs with the AccECN option in which case the heuristic just
gives up on updating the counters for a while.
tcp_ecn_option sysctl can be used to select option sending
mode for AccECN: TCP_ECN_OPTION_DISABLED, TCP_ECN_OPTION_MINIMUM,
and TCP_ECN_OPTION_FULL.
This patch increases the size of tcp_info struct, as there is
no existing holes for new u32 variables. Below are the pahole
outcomes before and after this patch:
[BEFORE THIS PATCH]
struct tcp_info {
[...]
__u32 tcpi_total_rto_time; /* 244 4 */
/* size: 248, cachelines: 4, members: 61 */

__u32 tcpi_delivered_e0_bytes; /* 256 4 */

__u32 tcpi_received_ce_bytes; /* 272 4 */
/* size: 280, cachelines: 5, members: 68 */
}
This patch uses the existing 1-byte holes in the tcp_sock_write_txrx
group for new u8 members, but adds a 4-byte hole in tcp_sock_write_rx
group after the new u32 delivered_ecn_bytes[3] member. Therefore, the
group size of tcp_sock_write_rx is increased from 96 to 112. Below
are the pahole outcomes before and after this patch:
[BEFORE THIS PATCH]
struct tcp_sock {

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.

The priority value is embedded in LACPDU packets and will be used by

The so-called fullmac devices rely on firmware functionality and/or API to
change BSS parameters. Today there are limited drivers supporting the
nl80211 primitive, but they only handle a subset of the bss parameters
passed if any. The mac80211 driver does handle all parameters and stores
their configured values. Some of the BSS parameters were already conditional
by wiphy->features. For these the wiphy->bss_param_support and wiphy->features
fields are silently aligned in wiphy_register(). Maybe better to issue a warning
instead when they are misaligned.

An S1G TIM PVB is encoded differently compared to a non-s1g TIM PVB.
As the AP dictates which encoding mode it uses, here we only implement
block bitmap encoding. This is the default encoding mode used by
all current vendor implementations.
Additionally, S1G has a maximum AID count of 8192, however we are
limiting the current implementation to 1600. This has no resemblence
to the standard and is purely an implementation detail. The reason for
this is due to the TIM elements maximum length of 255. This allows for,
at most, 25 encoded blocks for a PVB encoded with block bitmap. Support
for the maximum of 8192 AIDs will require an implementation of page slicing
to be added to mac80211.
As a result, we perform extra validation on both the STA and AP side
when receiving an AID as an S1G interface.
Add support for block bitmap encoding for an S1G AP and limit the
maximum AID count to 1600 for the current mac80211 implementations.

This new attribute is supposed to be used instead of NFTA_DEVICE_NAME
for simple wildcard interface specs. It holds a NUL-terminated string
representing an interface name prefix to match on.
While kernel code to distinguish full names from prefixes in
NFTA_DEVICE_NAME is simpler than this solution, reusing the existing
attribute with different semantics leads to confusion between different
versions of kernel and user space though:
* With old kernels, wildcards submitted by user space are accepted yet
silently treated as regular names.
* With old user space, wildcards submitted by kernel may cause crashes
since libnftnl expects NUL-termination when there is none.
Using a distinct attribute type sanitizes these situations as the
receiving part detects and rejects the unexpected attribute nested in
*_HOOK_DEVS attributes.

The uAPI stddef header includes compiler_types.h, a kernel-only
header, to make sure that kernel definitions of annotations
like __counted_by() take precedence.
There is a hack in scripts/headers_install.sh which strips includes
of compiler.h and compiler_types.h when installing uAPI headers.
While explicit handling makes sense for compiler.h, which is included
all over the uAPI, compiler_types.h is only included by stddef.h
(within the uAPI, obviously it's included in kernel code a lot).
Remove the stripping from scripts/headers_install.sh and wrap
the include of compiler_types.h in #ifdef __KERNEL__ instead.
This should be equivalent functionally, but is easier to understand
to a casual reader of the code. It also makes it easier to work
with kernel headers directly from under tools/

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 \
--spec Documentation/netlink/specs/devlink.yaml \

- Fix a regression that interrupted resync can be shown as
recover from mdstat or sysfs
- Improve file size detection for loop, particularly for networked
file systems, by using getattr to get the size rather than the
cached inode size.
- Hotplug CPU lock vs queue freeze fix

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.

Pull io_uring fixes from Jens Axboe:
- Allow vectorized payloads for send/send-zc - like sendmsg, but
without the hassle of a msghdr.
- Fix for an integer wrap that should go to stable, spotted by syzbot.
Nothing alarming here, as you need to be root to hit this.
Nevertheless, it should get fixed.
FWIW, kudos to the syzbot crew for having much nicer reproducers now,
and with nicely annotated source code as well. This is particularly
useful as syzbot uses the raw interface rather than liburing,
historically it's been difficult to turn a syzbot reproducer into a
meaningful test case. With the recent changes, not true anymore!

FD, something like:
"0000:04:10.0 vf_token=bd8d9d2b-5a5f-4f5a-a211-f591514ba1f3"
This is used to control access to a VF unless there is co-ordination with
the owner of the PF.
Since we no longer have a device name in the cdev path, pass the token
directly through VFIO_DEVICE_BIND_IOMMUFD using an optional field
indicated by VFIO_DEVICE_BIND_FLAG_TOKEN.

...
When booting a new kernel with kexec_file, the kernel picks a target
location that the kernel should live at, then allocates random pages,
checks whether any of those patches magically happens to coincide with a
target address range and if so, uses them for that range.
For every page allocated this way, it then creates a page list that the
relocation code - code that executes while all CPUs are off and we are
just about to jump into the new kernel - copies to their final memory
location. We can not put them there before, because chances are pretty
good that at least some page in the target range is already in use by the
currently running Linux environment. Copying is happening from a single
CPU at RAM rate, which takes around 4-50 ms per 100 MiB.
All of this is inefficient and error prone.
To successfully kexec, we need to quiesce all devices of the outgoing
kernel so they don't scribble over the new kernel's memory. We have seen
cases where that does not happen properly (*cough* GIC *cough*) and hence
the new kernel was corrupted. This started a month long journey to root
cause failing kexecs to eventually see memory corruption, because the new
kernel was corrupted severely enough that it could not emit output to tell
us about the fact that it was corrupted. By allocating memory for the
next kernel from a memory range that is guaranteed scribbling free, we can
boot the next kernel up to a point where it is at least able to detect
corruption and maybe even stop it before it becomes severe. This
increases the chance for successful kexecs.
Since kexec got introduced, Linux has gained the CMA framework which can
perform physically contiguous memory mappings, while keeping that memory
available for movable memory when it is not needed for contiguous
allocations. The default CMA allocator is for DMA allocations.
This patch adds logic to the kexec file loader to attempt to place the
target payload at a location allocated from CMA. If successful, it uses
that memory range directly instead of creating copy instructions during
the hot phase. To ensure that there is a safety net in case anything goes
wrong with the CMA allocation, it also adds a flag for user space to force
disable CMA allocations.
Using CMA allocations has two advantages:
1) Faster by 4-50 ms per 100 MiB. There is no more need to copy in the
hot phase.
2) More robust. Even if by accident some page is still in use for DMA,
the new kernel image will be safe from that access because it resides
in a memory region that is considered allocated in the old kernel and
has a chance to reinitialize that component.

- Use dev_fwnode() instead of of_fwnode_handle() to remove OF
dependency in altera (fixes an unused variable), designware-host,
mediatek, mediatek-gen3, mobiveil, plda, xilinx, xilinx-dma,
xilinx-nwl (Jiri Slaby, Arnd Bergmann)
- Convert aardvark, altera, brcmstb, designware-host, iproc,
mediatek, mediatek-gen3, mobiveil, plda, rcar-host, vmd, xilinx,
xilinx-dma, xilinx-nwl from using pci_msi_create_irq_domain() to
using msi_create_parent_irq_domain() instead; this makes the
interrupt controller per-PCI device, allows dynamic allocation of
vectors after initialization, and allows support of IMS (Nam Cao)

- Add IMX8MM_EP and IMX8MP_EP fixed 256-byte BAR 4 in epc_features
(Richard Zhu)
- Configure LUT for MSI/IOMMU in Endpoint mode so Root Complex can
trigger doorbel on Endpoint (Frank Li)
- Remove apps_reset (LTSSM_EN) from
imx_pcie_{assert,deassert}_core_reset(), which fixes a hotplug
regression on i.MX8MM (Richard Zhu)

Zhu)
Intel VMD host bridge driver:
- Add Intel Panther Lake (PTL)-H/P/U Vendor ID (George D Sworo)
Qualcomm PCIe controller driver:
- Add DT binding and driver support for SA8255p, which supports ECAM
for Configuration Space access (Mayank Rana)
- Update DT binding and driver to describe PHYs and per-Root Port
resets in a Root Port stanza and deprecate describing them in the
host bridge; this makes it possible to support multiple Root Ports
in the future (Krishna Chaitanya Chundru)
- Add Qualcomm QCS615 to SM8150 DT binding (Ziyue Zhang)
- Add Qualcomm QCS8300 to SA8775p DT binding (Ziyue Zhang)
- Drop TBU and ref clocks from Qualcomm SM8150 and SC8180x DT
bindings (Konrad Dybcio)
- Document 'link_down' reset in Qualcomm SA8775P DT binding (Ziyue
Zhang)
- Add required PCIE_RESET_CONFIG_WAIT_MS delay after Link up IRQ
(Niklas Cassel)
Rockchip PCIe controller driver:
- Drop unused PCIe Message routing and code definitions (Hans Zhang)
- Remove several unused header includes (Hans Zhang)
- Use standard PCIe config register definitions instead of
rockchip-specific redefinitions (Geraldo Nascimento)
- Set Target Link Speed to 5.0 GT/s before retraining so we have a
chance to train at a higher speed (Geraldo Nascimento)
Rockchip DesignWare PCIe controller driver:
- Prevent race between link training and register update via DBI by
inhibiting link training after hot reset and link down (Wilfred
Mallawa)
- Add required PCIE_RESET_CONFIG_WAIT_MS delay after Link up IRQ
(Niklas Cassel)
Sophgo PCIe controller driver:
- Add DT binding and driver for Sophgo SG2044 PCIe controller driver
in Root Complex mode (Inochi Amaoto)
Synopsys DesignWare PCIe controller driver:
- Add required PCIE_RESET_CONFIG_WAIT_MS after waiting for Link up on
Ports that support > 5.0 GT/s. Slower Ports still rely on the
not-quite-correct PCIE_LINK_WAIT_SLEEP_MS 90ms default delay while
waiting for the Link (Niklas Cassel)"

Since commit 6e890c5d50 ("vhost: use vhost_tasks for worker threads"),
the vhost uses vhost_task and operates as a child of the
owner thread. This is required for correct CPU usage accounting,
especially when using containers.
However, this change has caused confusion for some legacy
userspace applications, and we didn't notice until it's too late.
Unfortunately, it's too late to revert - we now have userspace
depending both on old and new behaviour :(
To address the issue, reintroduce kthread mode for vhost workers and
provide a configuration to select between kthread and task worker.
- Add 'fork_owner' parameter to vhost_dev to let users select kthread
or task mode. Default mode is task mode(VHOST_FORK_OWNER_TASK).
- Reintroduce kthread mode support:
* Bring back the original vhost_worker() implementation,
and renamed to vhost_run_work_kthread_list().
* Add cgroup support for the kthread
* Introduce struct vhost_worker_ops:
- Encapsulates create / stop / wake‑up callbacks.
- vhost_worker_create() selects the proper ops according to
inherit_owner.
- Userspace configuration interface:
* New IOCTLs:
- VHOST_SET_FORK_FROM_OWNER lets userspace select task mode
(VHOST_FORK_OWNER_TASK) or kthread mode (VHOST_FORK_OWNER_KTHREAD)
- VHOST_GET_FORK_FROM_OWNER reads the current worker mode
* Expose module parameter 'fork_from_owner_default' to allow system
administrators to configure the default mode for vhost workers
* Kconfig option CONFIG_VHOST_ENABLE_FORK_OWNER_CONTROL controls whether
these IOCTLs and the parameter are available
- The VHOST_NEW_WORKER functionality requires fork_owner to be set
to true, with validation added to ensure proper configuration
This partially reverts or improves upon:
