Merge tag 'net-next-6.5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next
Pull networking changes from Jakub Kicinski: "WiFi 7 and sendpage changes are the biggest pieces of work for this release. The latter will definitely require fixes but I think that we got it to a reasonable point.
Core:
- Rework the sendpage & splice implementations
Instead of feeding data into sockets page by page extend sendmsg handlers to support taking a reference on the data, controlled by a new flag called MSG_SPLICE_PAGES
Rework the handling of unexpected-end-of-file to invoke an additional callback instead of trying to predict what the right combination of MORE/NOTLAST flags is
Remove the MSG_SENDPAGE_NOTLAST flag completely
- Implement SCM_PIDFD, a new type of CMSG type analogous to SCM_CREDENTIALS, but it contains pidfd instead of plain pid
- Enable socket busy polling with CONFIG_RT
- Improve reliability and efficiency of reporting for ref_tracker
- Auto-generate a user space C library for various Netlink families
Protocols:
- Allow TCP to shrink the advertised window when necessary, prevent sk_rcvbuf auto-tuning from growing the window all the way up to tcp_rmem[2]
- Use per-VMA locking for "page-flipping" TCP receive zerocopy
- Prepare TCP for device-to-device data transfers, by making sure that payloads are always attached to skbs as page frags
- Make the backoff time for the first N TCP SYN retransmissions linear. Exponential backoff is unnecessarily conservative
- Create a new MPTCP getsockopt to retrieve all info (MPTCP_FULL_INFO)
- Avoid waking up applications using TLS sockets until we have a full record
- Allow using kernel memory for protocol ioctl callbacks, paving the way to issuing ioctls over io_uring
- Add nolocalbypass option to VxLAN, forcing packets to be fully encapsulated even if they are destined for a local IP address
- Make TCPv4 use consistent hash in TIME_WAIT and SYN_RECV. Ensure in-kernel ECMP implementation (e.g. Open vSwitch) select the same link for all packets. Support L4 symmetric hashing in Open vSwitch
- PPPoE: make number of hash bits configurable
- Allow DNS to be overwritten by DHCPACK in the in-kernel DHCP client (ipconfig)
- Add layer 2 miss indication and filtering, allowing higher layers (e.g. ACL filters) to make forwarding decisions based on whether packet matched forwarding state in lower devices (bridge)
- Support matching on Connectivity Fault Management (CFM) packets
- Hide the "link becomes ready" IPv6 messages by demoting their printk level to debug
- HSR: don't enable promiscuous mode if device offloads the proto
- Support active scanning in IEEE 802.15.4
- Continue work on Multi-Link Operation for WiFi 7
BPF:
- Add precision propagation for subprogs and callbacks. This allows maintaining verification efficiency when subprograms are used, or in fact passing the verifier at all for complex programs, especially those using open-coded iterators
- Improve BPF's {g,s}setsockopt() length handling. Previously BPF assumed the length is always equal to the amount of written data. But some protos allow passing a NULL buffer to discover what the output buffer *should* be, without writing anything
- Accept dynptr memory as memory arguments passed to helpers
- Add routing table ID to bpf_fib_lookup BPF helper
- Support O_PATH FDs in BPF_OBJ_PIN and BPF_OBJ_GET commands
- Drop bpf_capable() check in BPF_MAP_FREEZE command (used to mark maps as read-only)
- Show target_{obj,btf}_id in tracing link fdinfo
- Addition of several new kfuncs (most of the names are self-explanatory): - Add a set of new dynptr kfuncs: bpf_dynptr_adjust(), bpf_dynptr_is_null(), bpf_dynptr_is_rdonly(), bpf_dynptr_size() and bpf_dynptr_clone(). - bpf_task_under_cgroup() - bpf_sock_destroy() - force closing sockets - bpf_cpumask_first_and(), rework bpf_cpumask_any*() kfuncs
Netfilter:
- Relax set/map validation checks in nf_tables. Allow checking presence of an entry in a map without using the value
- Increase ip_vs_conn_tab_bits range for 64BIT builds
- Allow updating size of a set
- Improve NAT tuple selection when connection is closing
Driver API:
- Integrate netdev with LED subsystem, to allow configuring HW "offloaded" blinking of LEDs based on link state and activity (i.e. packets coming in and out)
- Support configuring rate selection pins of SFP modules
- Factor Clause 73 auto-negotiation code out of the drivers, provide common helper routines
- Add more fool-proof helpers for managing lifetime of MDIO devices associated with the PCS layer
- Allow drivers to report advanced statistics related to Time Aware scheduler offload (taprio)
- Allow opting out of VF statistics in link dump, to allow more VFs to fit into the message
- Split devlink instance and devlink port operations
New hardware / drivers:
- Ethernet: - Synopsys EMAC4 IP support (stmmac) - Marvell 88E6361 8 port (5x1GE + 3x2.5GE) switches - Marvell 88E6250 7 port switches - Microchip LAN8650/1 Rev.B0 PHYs - MediaTek MT7981/MT7988 built-in 1GE PHY driver

Merge branch 'mptcp-expose-more-info-and-small-improvements'
Matthieu Baerts says:
==================== mptcp: expose more info and small improvements
Patch 1-3/9 track and expose some aggregated data counters at the MPTCP level: the number of retransmissions and the bytes that have been transferred. The first patch prepares the work by moving where snd_una is updated for fallback sockets while the last patch adds some tests to cover the new code.
Patch 4-6/9 introduce a new getsockopt for SOL_MPTCP: MPTCP_FULL_INFO. This new socket option allows to combine info from MPTCP_INFO, MPTCP_TCPINFO and MPTCP_SUBFLOW_ADDRS socket options into one. It can be needed to have all info in one because the path-manager can close and re-create subflows between getsockopt() and fooling the accounting. The first patch introduces a unique subflow ID to easily detect when subflows are being re-created with the same 5-tuple while the last patch adds some tests to cover the new code.
Please note that patch 5/9 ("mptcp: introduce MPTCP_FULL_INFO getsockopt") can reveal a bug that were there for a bit of time, see [1]. A fix has recently been fixed to netdev for the -net tree: "mptcp: ensure listener is unhashed before updating the sk status", see [2]. There is no conflicts between the two patches but it might be better to apply this series after the one for -net and after having merged "net" into "net-next".
Patch 7/9 is similar to commit 47867f0a7e83 ("selftests: mptcp: join: skip check if MIB counter not supported") recently applied in the -net tree but here it adapts the new code that is only in net-next (and it fixes a merge conflict resolution which didn't have any impact).
Patch 8 and 9/9 are two simple refactoring. One to consolidate the transition to TCP_CLOSE in mptcp_do_fastclose() and avoid duplicated code. The other one reduces the scope of an argument passed to mptcp_pm_alloc_anno_list() function.

mptcp: introduce MPTCP_FULL_INFO getsockopt
Some user-space applications want to monitor the subflows utilization.
Dumping the per subflow tcp_info is not enough, as the PM could close and re-create the subflows under-the-hood, fooling the accounting. Even checking the src/dst addresses used by each subflow could not be enough, because new subflows could re-use the same address/port of the just closed one.
This patch introduces a new socket option, allow dumping all the relevant information all-at-once (everything, everywhere...), in a consistent manner.

mptcp: track some aggregate data counters
Currently there are no data transfer counters accounting for all the subflows used by a given MPTCP socket. The user-space can compute such figures aggregating the subflow info, but that is inaccurate if any subflow is closed before the MPTCP socket itself.
Add the new counters in the MPTCP socket itself and expose them via the existing diag and sockopt. While touching mptcp_diag_fill_info(), acquire the relevant locks before fetching the msk data, to ensure better data consistency

==================== Add SCM_PIDFD and SO_PEERPIDFD
1. Implement SCM_PIDFD, a new type of CMSG type analogical to SCM_CREDENTIALS, but it contains pidfd instead of plain pid, which allows programmers not to care about PID reuse problem.
2. Add SO_PEERPIDFD which allows to get pidfd of peer socket holder pidfd. This thing is direct analog of SO_PEERCRED which allows to get plain PID.
3. Add SCM_PIDFD / SO_PEERPIDFD kselftest
Idea comes from UAPI kernel group: https://uapi-group.org/kernel-features/
Big thanks to Christian Brauner and Lennart Poettering for productive discussions about this and Luca Boccassi for testing and reviewing this.
=== Motivation behind this patchset
Eric Dumazet raised a question: > It seems that we already can use pidfd_open() (since linux-5.3), and > pass the resulting fd in af_unix SCM_RIGHTS message ?
Yes, it's possible, but it means that from the receiver side we need to trust the sent pidfd (in SCM_RIGHTS), or always use combination of SCM_RIGHTS+SCM_CREDENTIALS, then we can extract pidfd from SCM_RIGHTS, then acquire plain pid from pidfd and after compare it with the pid from SCM_CREDENTIALS.
A few comments from other folks regarding this.

scm: add SO_PASSPIDFD and SCM_PIDFD
Implement SCM_PIDFD, a new type of CMSG type analogical to SCM_CREDENTIALS, but it contains pidfd instead of plain pid, which allows programmers not to care about PID reuse problem.
We mask SO_PASSPIDFD feature if CONFIG_UNIX is not builtin because it depends on a pidfd_prepare() API which is not exported to the kernel modules.

Merge tag 'net-next-6.4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next
Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni: "Core:
- Introduce a config option to tweak MAX_SKB_FRAGS. Increasing the default value allows for better BIG TCP performances
- Reduce compound page head access for zero-copy data transfers
- RPS/RFS improvements, avoiding unneeded NET_RX_SOFTIRQ when possible
- Threaded NAPI improvements, adding defer skb free support and unneeded softirq avoidance
- Address dst_entry reference count scalability issues, via false sharing avoidance and optimize refcount tracking
- Add lockless accesses annotation to sk_err[_soft]
- Optimize again the skb struct layout
- Extends the skb drop reasons to make it usable by multiple subsystems
- Better const qualifier awareness for socket casts
BPF:
- Add skb and XDP typed dynptrs which allow BPF programs for more ergonomic and less brittle iteration through data and variable-sized accesses
- Add a new BPF netfilter program type and minimal support to hook BPF programs to netfilter hooks such as prerouting or forward
- Add more precise memory usage reporting for all BPF map types
- Adds support for using {FOU,GUE} encap with an ipip device operating in collect_md mode and add a set of BPF kfuncs for controlling encap params
- Allow BPF programs to detect at load time whether a particular kfunc exists or not, and also add support for this in light skeleton
- Bigger batch of BPF verifier improvements to prepare for upcoming BPF open-coded iterators allowing for less restrictive looping capabilities
- Rework RCU enforcement in the verifier, add kptr_rcu and enforce BPF programs to NULL-check before passing such pointers into kfunc
- Add support for kptrs in percpu hashmaps, percpu LRU hashmaps and in local storage maps
- Enable RCU semantics for task BPF kptrs and allow referenced kptr tasks to be stored in BPF maps
- Add support for refcounted local kptrs to the verifier for allowing shared ownership, useful for adding a node to both the BPF list and rbtree
- Add BPF verifier support for ST instructions in convert_ctx_access() which will help new -mcpu=v4 clang flag to start emitting them
- Add ARM32 USDT support to libbpf
- Improve bpftool's visual program dump which produces the control flow graph in a DOT format by adding C source inline annotations
Protocols:
- IPv4: Allow adding to IPv4 address a 'protocol' tag. Such value indicates the provenance of the IP address
- IPv6: optimize route lookup, dropping unneeded R/W lock acquisition
- Add the handshake upcall mechanism, allowing the user-space to implement generic TLS handshake on kernel's behalf
- Bridge: support per-{Port, VLAN} neighbor suppression, increasing resilience to nodes failures
- SCTP: add support for Fair Capacity and Weighted Fair Queueing schedulers
- MPTCP: delay first subflow allocation up to its first usage. This will allow for later better LSM interaction
- xfrm: Remove inner/outer modes from input/output path. These are not needed anymore
- WiFi: - reduced neighbor report (RNR) handling for AP mode - HW timestamping support - support for randomized auth/deauth TA for PASN privacy - per-link debugfs for multi-link - TC offload support for mac80211 drivers - mac80211 mesh fast-xmit and fast-rx support - enable Wi-Fi 7 (EHT) mesh support
Netfilter:
- Add nf_tables 'brouting' support, to force a packet to be routed instead of being bridged
- Update bridge netfilter and ovs conntrack helpers to handle IPv6 Jumbo packets properly, i.e. fetch the packet length from hop-by-hop extension header. This is needed for BIT TCP support
- The iptables 32bit compat interface isn't compiled in by default anymore
- Move ip(6)tables builtin icmp matches to the udptcp one. This has the advantage that icmp/icmpv6 match doesn't load the iptables/ip6tables modules anymore when iptables-nft is used
- Extended netlink error report for netdevice in flowtables and netdev/chains. Allow for incrementally add/delete devices to netdev basechain. Allow to create netdev chain without device
Driver API:
- Remove redundant Device Control Error Reporting Enable, as PCI core has already error reporting enabled at enumeration time
- Move Multicast DB netlink handlers to core, allowing devices other then bridge to use them
- Allow the page_pool to directly recycle the pages from safely localized NAPI
- Implement lockless TX queue stop/wake combo macros, allowing for further code de-duplication and sanitization
- Add YNL support for user headers and struct attrs
- Add partial YNL specification for devlink
- Add partial YNL specification for ethtool
- Add tc-mqprio and tc-taprio support for preemptible traffic classes
- Add tx push buf len param to ethtool, specifies the maximum number of bytes of a transmitted packet a driver can push directly to the underlying device
- Add basic LED support for switch/phy
- Add NAPI documentation, stop relaying on external links
- Convert dsa_master_ioctl() to netdev notifier. This is a preparatory work to make the hardware timestamping layer selectable by user space
- Add transceiver support and improve the error messages for CAN-FD controllers

Merge branch 'mptcp-subflow-init'
Matthieu Baerts says:
==================== mptcp: refactor first subflow init
This series refactors the initialisation of the first subflow of a listen socket. The first subflow allocation is no longer done at the initialisation of the socket but later, when the connection request is received or when requested by the userspace.
This is needed not just because Paolo likes to refactor things but because this simplifies the code and makes the behaviour more consistent with the rest. Also, this is a prerequisite for future patches adding proper support of SELinux/LSM labels with MPTCP and accept(2).
In [1], Ondrej Mosnacek explained they discovered the (userspace-facing) sockets returned by accept(2) when using MPTCP always end up with the label representing the kernel (typically system_u:system_r:kernel_t:s0), while it would make more sense to inherit the context from the parent socket (the one that is passed to accept(2)).
Before being able to properly support that on SELinux/LSM side, patches 2-3/5 prepare the code to simplify the patch 4/5 moving the allocation.
Patch 1/5 is a small clean-up seen while working on the series and patch 5/5 is a small improvement when closing unaccepted sockets.

mptcp: move first subflow allocation at mpc access time
In the long run this will simplify the mptcp code and will allow for more consistent behavior. Move the first subflow allocation out of the sock->init ops into the __mptcp_nmpc_socket() helper.
Since the first subflow creation can now happen after the first setsockopt() we additionally need to invoke mptcp_sockopt_sync() on it.

Merge branch 'mptcp-cleanups'
Matthieu Baerts says:
==================== mptcp: a couple of cleanups and improvements
Patch 1 removes an unneeded address copy in subflow_syn_recv_sock().
Patch 2 simplifies subflow_syn_recv_sock() to postpone some actions and to avoid a bunch of conditionals.
Patch 3 stops reporting limits that are not taken into account when the userspace PM is used.
Patch 4 adds a new test to validate that the 'subflows' field reported by the kernel is correct. Such info can be retrieved via Netlink (e.g. with ss) or getsockopt(SOL_MPTCP, MPTCP_INFO).
--- Changes in v2: - Patch 3/4's commit message has been updated to use the correct SHA - Rebased on latest net-next - Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230324-upstream-net-next-20230324-misc-features-v1-0-5a29154592bd@tessares.net ====================

mptcp: do not fill info not used by the PM in used
Only the in-kernel PM uses the number of address and subflow limits allowed per connection.
It then makes more sense not to display such info when other PMs are used not to confuse the userspace by showing limits not being used.
While at it, we can get rid of the "val" variable and add indentations instead.
It would have been good to have done this modification directly in commit 4d25247d3ae4 ("mptcp: bypass in-kernel PM restrictions for non-kernel PMs") but as we change a bit the behaviour, it is fine not to backport it to stable.
