Merge tag 'net-6.6-rc7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net

Pull networking fixes from Jakub Kicinski:
"Including fixes from bluetooth, netfilter, WiFi.

Feels like an up-tick in regression fixes, mostly for older releases.
The hfsc fix, tcp_disconnect() and Intel WWAN fixes stand out as
fairly clear-cut user reported regressions. The mlx5 DMA bug was
causing strife for 390x folks. The fixes themselves are not
particularly scary, tho. No open investigations / outstanding reports
at the time of writing.

Current release - regressions:

- eth: mlx5: perform DMA operations in the right locations, make
devices usable on s390x, again

- sched: sch_hfsc: upgrade 'rt' to 'sc' when it becomes a inner
curve, previous fix of rejecting invalid config broke some scripts

- rfkill: reduce data->mtx scope in rfkill_fop_open, avoid deadlock

- revert "ethtool: Fix mod state of verbose no_mask bitset", needs
more work

Current release - new code bugs:

- tcp: fix listen() warning with v4-mapped-v6 address

Previous releases - regressions:

- tcp: allow tcp_disconnect() again when threads are waiting, it was
denied to plug a constant source of bugs but turns out .NET depends
on it

- eth: mlx5: fix double-free if buffer refill fails under OOM

- revert "net: wwan: iosm: enable runtime pm support for 7560", it's
causing regressions and the WWAN team at Intel disappeared

- tcp: tsq: relax tcp_small_queue_check() when rtx queue contains a
single skb, fix single-stream perf regression on some devices

Previous releases - always broken:

- Bluetooth:
- fix issues in legacy BR/EDR PIN code pairing
- correctly bounds check and pad HCI_MON_NEW_INDEX name

- netfilter:
- more fixes / follow ups for the large "commit protocol" rework,
which went in as a fix to 6.5
- fix null-derefs on netlink attrs which user may not pass in

- tcp: fix excessive TLP and RACK timeouts from HZ rounding (bless
Debian for keeping HZ=250 alive)

- net: more strict VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_UDP_L4 validation, prevent
letting frankenstein UDP super-frames from getting into the stack

- net: fix interface altnames when ifc moves to a new namespace

- eth: qed: fix the size of the RX buffers

- mptcp: avoid sending RST when closing the initial subflow"

Merge tag 'net-next-6.1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
"Core:

- Introduce and use a single page frag cache for allocating small skb
heads, clawing back the 10-20% performance regression in UDP flood
test from previous fixes.

- Run packets which already went thru HW coalescing thru SW GRO. This
significantly improves TCP segment coalescing and simplifies
deployments as different workloads benefit from HW or SW GRO.

- Shrink the size of the base zero-copy send structure.

- Move TCP init under a new slow / sleepable version of DO_ONCE().

BPF:

- Add BPF-specific, any-context-safe memory allocator.

- Add helpers/kfuncs for PKCS#7 signature verification from BPF
programs.

- Define a new map type and related helpers for user space -> kernel
communication over a ring buffer (BPF_MAP_TYPE_USER_RINGBUF).

- Allow targeting BPF iterators to loop through resources of one
task/thread.

- Add ability to call selected destructive functions. Expose
crash_kexec() to allow BPF to trigger a kernel dump. Use
CAP_SYS_BOOT check on the loading process to judge permissions.

- Enable BPF to collect custom hierarchical cgroup stats efficiently
by integrating with the rstat framework.

- Support struct arguments for trampoline based programs. Only
structs with size <= 16B and x86 are supported.

- Invoke cgroup/connect{4,6} programs for unprivileged ICMP ping
sockets (instead of just TCP and UDP sockets).

- Add a helper for accessing CLOCK_TAI for time sensitive network
related programs.

- Support accessing network tunnel metadata's flags.

- Make TCP SYN ACK RTO tunable by BPF programs with TCP Fast Open.

- Add support for writing to Netfilter's nf_conn:mark.

Protocols:

- WiFi: more Extremely High Throughput (EHT) and Multi-Link Operation
(MLO) work (802.11be, WiFi 7).

- vsock: improve support for SO_RCVLOWAT.

- SMC: support SO_REUSEPORT.

- Netlink: define and document how to use netlink in a "modern" way.
Support reporting missing attributes via extended ACK.

- IPSec: support collect metadata mode for xfrm interfaces.

- TCPv6: send consistent autoflowlabel in SYN_RECV state and RST
packets.

- TCP: introduce optional per-netns connection hash table to allow
better isolation between namespaces (opt-in, at the cost of memory
and cache pressure).

- MPTCP: support TCP_FASTOPEN_CONNECT.

- Add NEXT-C-SID support in Segment Routing (SRv6) End behavior.

- Adjust IP_UNICAST_IF sockopt behavior for connected UDP sockets.

- Open vSwitch:
- Allow specifying ifindex of new interfaces.
- Allow conntrack and metering in non-initial user namespace.

- TLS: support the Korean ARIA-GCM crypto algorithm.

- Remove DECnet support.

Driver API:

- Allow selecting the conduit interface used by each port in DSA
switches, at runtime.

- Ethernet Power Sourcing Equipment and Power Device support.

- Add tc-taprio support for queueMaxSDU parameter, i.e. setting per
traffic class max frame size for time-based packet schedules.

- Support PHY rate matching - adapting between differing host-side
and link-side speeds.

- Introduce QUSGMII PHY mode and 1000BASE-KX interface mode.

- Validate OF (device tree) nodes for DSA shared ports; make
phylink-related properties mandatory on DSA and CPU ports.
Enforcing more uniformity should allow transitioning to phylink.

- Require that flash component name used during update matches one of
the components for which version is reported by info_get().

- Remove "weight" argument from driver-facing NAPI API as much as
possible. It's one of those magic knobs which seemed like a good
idea at the time but is too indirect to use in practice.

- Support offload of TLS connections with 256 bit keys.
