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.

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.

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.

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,

Merge branch 'samples/bpf: enhance syscall tracing program'

"Daniel T. Lee" says:

====================

Syscall tracing using kprobe is quite unstable. Since it uses the exact
name of the kernel function, the program might broke due to the rename
of a function. The problem can also be caused by a changes in the
arguments of the function to which the kprobe connects. This commit
enhances syscall tracing program with the following instruments.

In this patchset, ksyscall is used instead of kprobe. By using
ksyscall, libbpf will detect the appropriate kernel function name.
(e.g. sys_write -> __s390_sys_write). This eliminates the need to worry
about which wrapper function to attach in order to parse arguments.
Also ksyscall provides more fine method with attaching system call, the
coarse SYSCALL helper at trace_common.h can be removed.

Next, BPF_SYSCALL is used to reduce the inconvenience of parsing
arguments. Since the nature of SYSCALL_WRAPPER function wraps the
argument once, additional process of argument extraction is required
to properly parse the argument. The BPF_SYSCALL macro will reduces the
hassle of parsing arguments from pt_regs.

Lastly, vmlinux.h is applied to syscall tracing program. This change
allows the bpf program to refer to the internal structure as a single
"vmlinux.h" instead of including each header referenced by the bpf
program.

Additionally, this patchset changes the suffix of _kern to .bpf to make
use of the new compile rule (CLANG-BPF) which is more simple and neat.
By just changing the _kern suffix to .bpf will inherit the benefit of
the new CLANG-BPF compile target.

Also, this commit adds dummy gnu/stub.h to the samples/bpf directory.
This will fix the compiling problem with 'clang -target bpf'.

To fix the build error with the s390x, this patchset also includes the
fix of libbpf invalid return address register mapping in s390.
---
Changes in V2:
- add gnu/stub.h hack to fix compile error with 'clang -target bpf'

samples/bpf: Change _kern suffix to .bpf with syscall tracing program

Currently old compile rule (CLANG-bpf) doesn't contains VMLINUX_H define
flag which is essential for the bpf program that includes "vmlinux.h".
Also old compile rule doesn't directly specify the compile target as bpf,
instead it uses bunch of extra options with clang followed by long chain
of commands. (e.g. clang | opt | llvm-dis | llc)

In Makefile, there is already new compile rule which is more simple and
neat. And it also has -D__VMLINUX_H__ option. By just changing the _kern
suffix to .bpf will inherit the benefit of the new CLANG-BPF compile
target.

Also, this commit adds dummy gnu/stub.h to the samples/bpf directory.
As commit 1c2dd16add7e ("selftests/bpf: get rid of -D__x86_64__") noted,
compiling with 'clang -target bpf' will raise an error with stubs.h
unless workaround (-D__x86_64) is used. This commit solves this problem
by adding dummy stub.h to make /usr/include/features.h to follow the
expected path as the same way selftests/bpf dealt with.

Merge branch 'Deprecate bpf_prog_load_xattr() API'

Andrii Nakryiko says:

====================

Few lines in the last patch to mark bpf_prog_load_xattr() deprecated required
a decent amount of clean ups in all the other patches. samples/bpf is big part
of the clean up.

This patch set also bumps libbpf version to 0.7, as libbpf v0.6 release will
be cut shortly.
