Merge tag 'net-next-6.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next

Merge tag 'net-next-6.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
"Core:

- Add dedicated kmem_cache for typical/small skb->head, avoid having
to access struct page at kfree time, and improve memory use.

- Introduce sysctl to set default RPS configuration for new netdevs.

- Define Netlink protocol specification format which can be used to
describe messages used by each family and auto-generate parsers.
Add tools for generating kernel data structures and uAPI headers.

- Expose all net/core sysctls inside netns.

- Remove 4s sleep in netpoll if carrier is instantly detected on
boot.

- Add configurable limit of MDB entries per port, and port-vlan.

- Continue populating drop reasons throughout the stack.

- Retire a handful of legacy Qdiscs and classifiers.

Protocols:

- Support IPv4 big TCP (TSO frames larger than 64kB).

- Add IP_LOCAL_PORT_RANGE socket option, to control local port range
on socket by socket basis.

- Track and report in procfs number of MPTCP sockets used.

- Support mixing IPv4 and IPv6 flows in the in-kernel MPTCP path
manager.

- IPv6: don't check net.ipv6.route.max_size and rely on garbage
collection to free memory (similarly to IPv4).

- Support Penultimate Segment Pop (PSP) flavor in SRv6 (RFC8986).

- ICMP: add per-rate limit counters.

- Add support for user scanning requests in ieee802154.

- Remove static WEP support.

- Support minimal Wi-Fi 7 Extremely High Throughput (EHT) rate
reporting.

- WiFi 7 EHT channel puncturing support (client & AP).

BPF:

- Add a rbtree data structure following the "next-gen data structure"
precedent set by recently added linked list, that is, by using
kfunc + kptr instead of adding a new BPF map type.

- Expose XDP hints via kfuncs with initial support for RX hash and
timestamp metadata.

- Add BPF_F_NO_TUNNEL_KEY extension to bpf_skb_set_tunnel_key to
better support decap on GRE tunnel devices not operating in collect
metadata.

- Improve x86 JIT's codegen for PROBE_MEM runtime error checks.

- Remove the need for trace_printk_lock for bpf_trace_printk and
bpf_trace_vprintk helpers.

- Extend libbpf's bpf_tracing.h support for tracing arguments of
kprobes/uprobes and syscall as a special case.

- Significantly reduce the search time for module symbols by
livepatch and BPF.

- Enable cpumasks to be used as kptrs, which is useful for tracing
programs tracking which tasks end up running on which CPUs in
different time intervals.

- Add support for BPF trampoline on s390x and riscv64.

- Add capability to export the XDP features supported by the NIC.

- Add __bpf_kfunc tag for marking kernel functions as kfuncs.

- Add cgroup.memory=nobpf kernel parameter option to disable BPF
memory accounting for container environments.

Netfilter:

- Remove the CLUSTERIP target. It has been marked as obsolete for
years, and we still have WARN splats wrt races of the out-of-band
/proc interface installed by this target.

- Add 'destroy' commands to nf_tables. They are identical to the
existing 'delete' commands, but do not return an error if the
referenced object (set, chain, rule...) did not exist.

Driver API:

- Improve cpumask_local_spread() locality to help NICs set the right
IRQ affinity on AMD platforms.

- Separate C22 and C45 MDIO bus transactions more clearly.

- Introduce new DCB table to control DSCP rewrite on egress.

- Support configuration of Physical Layer Collision Avoidance (PLCA)
Reconciliation Sublayer (RS) (802.3cg-2019). Modern version of
shared medium Ethernet.

- Support for MAC Merge layer (IEEE 802.3-2018 clause 99). Allowing
preemption of low priority frames by high priority frames.

- Add support for controlling MACSec offload using netlink SET.

- Rework devlink instance refcounts to allow registration and
de-registration under the instance lock. Split the code into
multiple files, drop some of the unnecessarily granular locks and
factor out common parts of netlink operation handling.

- Add TX frame aggregation parameters (for USB drivers).

- Add a new attr TCA_EXT_WARN_MSG to report TC (offload) warning
messages with notifications for debug.

- Allow offloading of UDP NEW connections via act_ct.

- Add support for per action HW stats in TC.

- Support hardware miss to TC action (continue processing in SW from
a specific point in the action chain).

- Warn if old Wireless Extension user space interface is used with
modern cfg80211/mac80211 drivers. Do not support Wireless
Extensions for Wi-Fi 7 devices at all. Everyone should switch to
using nl80211 interface instead.

- Improve the CAN bit timing configuration. Use extack to return
error messages directly to user space, update the SJW handling,
including the definition of a new default value that will benefit
CAN-FD controllers, by increasing their oscillator tolerance.

- Ethernet:

Merge branch 'sched-cpumask-improve-on-cpumask_local_spread-locality'

Yury Norov says:

====================
sched: cpumask: improve on cpumask_local_spread() locality

cpumask_local_spread() currently checks local node for presence of i'th
CPU, and then if it finds nothing makes a flat search among all non-local
CPUs. We can do it better by checking CPUs per NUMA hops.

This has significant performance implications on NUMA machines, for example
when using NUMA-aware allocated memory together with NUMA-aware IRQ
affinity hints.

Performance tests from patch 8 of this series for mellanox network
driver show:

TCP multi-stream, using 16 iperf3 instances pinned to 16 cores (with aRFS on).
Active cores: 64,65,72,73,80,81,88,89,96,97,104,105,112,113,120,121

+-------------------------+-----------+------------------+------------------+
| | BW (Gbps) | TX side CPU util | RX side CPU util |
+-------------------------+-----------+------------------+------------------+
| Baseline | 52.3 | 6.4 % | 17.9 % |
+-------------------------+-----------+------------------+------------------+
| Applied on TX side only | 52.6 | 5.2 % | 18.5 % |
+-------------------------+-----------+------------------+------------------+
| Applied on RX side only | 94.9 | 11.9 % | 27.2 % |
+-------------------------+-----------+------------------+------------------+
| Applied on both sides | 95.1 | 8.4 % | 27.3 % |
+-------------------------+-----------+------------------+------------------+

Bottleneck in RX side is released, reached linerate (~1.8x speedup).
~30% less cpu util on TX.

Merge tag 'bitmap-6.1-rc1' of https://github.com/norov/linux

Pull bitmap updates from Yury Norov:

- Fix unsigned comparison to -1 in CPUMAP_FILE_MAX_BYTES (Phil Auld)

- cleanup nr_cpu_ids vs nr_cpumask_bits mess (me)

This series cleans that mess and adds new config FORCE_NR_CPUS that
allows to optimize cpumask subsystem if the number of CPUs is known
at compile-time.

- optimize find_bit() functions (me)

Reworks find_bit() functions based on new FIND_{FIRST,NEXT}_BIT()
macros.

- add find_nth_bit() (me)

Adds find_nth_bit(), which is ~70 times faster than bitcounting with
for_each() loop:

for_each_set_bit(bit, mask, size)
if (n-- == 0)
return bit;

Also adds bitmap_weight_and() to let people replace this pattern:

tmp = bitmap_alloc(nbits);
bitmap_and(tmp, map1, map2, nbits);
weight = bitmap_weight(tmp, nbits);
bitmap_free(tmp);

with a single bitmap_weight_and() call.

- repair cpumask_check() (me)

After switching cpumask to use nr_cpu_ids, cpumask_check() started
generating many false-positive warnings. This series fixes it.

- Add for_each_cpu_andnot() and for_each_cpu_andnot() (Valentin
Schneider)

Extends the API with one more function and applies it in sched/core.

lib: add find_nth{,_and,_andnot}_bit()

Kernel lacks for a function that searches for Nth bit in a bitmap.
Usually people do it like this:
for_each_set_bit(bit, mask, size)
if (n-- == 0)
return bit;

We can do it more efficiently, if we:
1. find a word containing Nth bit, using hweight(); and
2. find the bit, using a helper fns(), that works similarly to
__ffs() and ffz().

fns() is implemented as a simple loop. For x86_64, there's PDEP instruction
to do that: ret = clz(pdep(1 << idx, num)). However, for large bitmaps the
most of improvement comes from using hweight(), so I kept fns() simple.

New find_nth_bit() is ~70 times faster on x86_64/kvm in find_bit benchmark:
find_nth_bit: 7154190 ns, 16411 iterations
for_each_bit: 505493126 ns, 16315 iterations

With all that, a family of 3 new functions is added, and used where
appropriate in the following patches.
