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

Merge branch 'bpf: Don't EFAULT for {g,s}setsockopt with wrong optlen'

Stanislav Fomichev says:

====================
optval larger than PAGE_SIZE leads to EFAULT if the BPF program
isn't careful enough. This is often overlooked and might break
completely unrelated socket options. Instead of EFAULT,
let's ignore BPF program buffer changes. See the first patch for
more info.

In addition, clearly document this corner case and reset optlen
in our selftests (in case somebody copy-pastes from them).

v6:
- no changes; resending due to screwing up v5 series with the unrelated
patch

v5:
- goto in the selftest (Martin)
- set IP_TOS to zero to avoid endianness complications (Martin)

v4:
- ignore retval as well when optlen > PAGE_SIZE (Martin)

v3:
- don't hard-code PAGE_SIZE (Martin)
- reset orig_optlen in getsockopt when kernel part succeeds (Martin)

- Speed up netns dismantling (5x) and lower the memory cost a little.
Remove unnecessary per-netns sockets. Scope some lists to a netns.
Cut down RCU syncing. Use batch methods. Allow netdev registration
to complete out of order.

- Support distinguishing timestamp types (ingress vs egress) and
maintaining them across packet scrubbing points (e.g. redirect).

- Continue the work of annotating packet drop reasons throughout the
stack.

- Switch netdev error counters from an atomic to dynamically
allocated per-CPU counters.

- Rework a few preempt_disable(), local_irq_save() and busy waiting
sections problematic on PREEMPT_RT.

- Extend the ref_tracker to allow catching use-after-free bugs.

BPF
---

- Introduce "packing allocator" for BPF JIT images. JITed code is
marked read only, and used to be allocated at page granularity.
Custom allocator allows for more efficient memory use, lower iTLB
pressure and prevents identity mapping huge pages from getting
split.

- Make use of BTF type annotations (e.g. __user, __percpu) to enforce
the correct probe read access method, add appropriate helpers.

- Convert the BPF preload to use light skeleton and drop the
user-mode-driver dependency.

- Allow XDP BPF_PROG_RUN test infra to send real packets, enabling
its use as a packet generator.

- Allow local storage memory to be allocated with GFP_KERNEL if
called from a hook allowed to sleep.

- Introduce fprobe (multi kprobe) to speed up mass attachment (arch
bits to come later).

- Add unstable conntrack lookup helpers for BPF by using the BPF
kfunc infra.

- Allow cgroup BPF progs to return custom errors to user space.

- Add support for AF_UNIX iterator batching.

- Allow iterator programs to use sleepable helpers.

- Support JIT of add, and, or, xor and xchg atomic ops on arm64.

- Add BTFGen support to bpftool which allows to use CO-RE in kernels
without BTF info.

- Large number of libbpf API improvements, cleanups and deprecations.

Protocols
---------

- Micro-optimize UDPv6 Tx, gaining up to 5% in test on dummy netdev.

- Adjust TSO packet sizes based on min_rtt, allowing very low latency
links (data centers) to always send full-sized TSO super-frames.

- Make IPv6 flow label changes (AKA hash rethink) more configurable,
via sysctl and setsockopt. Distinguish between server and client
behavior.

- VxLAN support to "collect metadata" devices to terminate only
configured VNIs. This is similar to VLAN filtering in the bridge.

- Support inserting IPv6 IOAM information to a fraction of frames.

- Add protocol attribute to IP addresses to allow identifying where
given address comes from (kernel-generated, DHCP etc.)

- Support setting socket and IPv6 options via cmsg on ping6 sockets.

- Reject mis-use of ECN bits in IP headers as part of DSCP/TOS.
Define dscp_t and stop taking ECN bits into account in fib-rules.

- Add support for locked bridge ports (for 802.1X).

- tun: support NAPI for packets received from batched XDP buffs,
doubling the performance in some scenarios.

- IPv6 extension header handling in Open vSwitch.

- Support IPv6 control message load balancing in bonding, prevent
neighbor solicitation and advertisement from using the wrong port.
Support NS/NA monitor selection similar to existing ARP monitor.

- SMC
- improve performance with TCP_CORK and sendfile()
- support auto-corking
- support TCP_NODELAY

- MCTP (Management Component Transport Protocol)
- add user space tag control interface
- I2C binding driver (as specified by DMTF DSP0237)

- Multi-BSSID beacon handling in AP mode for WiFi.

- Bluetooth:
- handle MSFT Monitor Device Event
- add MGMT Adv Monitor Device Found/Lost events

- Multi-Path TCP:
- add support for the SO_SNDTIMEO socket option
- lots of selftest cleanups and improvements

- Increase the max PDU size in CAN ISOTP to 64 kB.

Driver API
----------

- Add HW counters for SW netdevs, a mechanism for devices which
offload packet forwarding to report packet statistics back to
software interfaces such as tunnels.

- Select the default NIC queue count as a fraction of number of
physical CPU cores, instead of hard-coding to 8.

- Expose devlink instance locks to drivers. Allow device layer of
drivers to use that lock directly instead of creating their own
which always runs into ordering issues in devlink callbacks.

- Add header/data split indication to guide user space enabling of
TCP zero-copy Rx.

- Allow configuring completion queue event size.

- Refactor page_pool to enable fragmenting after allocation.

- Add allocation and page reuse statistics to page_pool.

- Improve Multiple Spanning Trees support in the bridge to allow
reuse of topologies across VLANs, saving HW resources in switches.

- DSA (Distributed Switch Architecture):
- replay and offload of host VLAN entries
- offload of static and local FDB entries on LAG interfaces
- FDB isolation and unicast filtering

Merge branch 'bpf: allow cgroup progs to export custom retval to userspace'

YiFei Zhu says:

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

Right now, most cgroup hooks are best used for permission checks. They
can only reject a syscall with -EPERM, so a cause of a rejection, if
the rejected by eBPF cgroup hooks, is ambiguous to userspace.
Additionally, if the syscalls are implemented in eBPF, all permission
checks and the implementation has to happen within the same filter,
as programs executed later in the series of progs are unaware of the
return values return by the previous progs.

This patch series adds two helpers, bpf_get_retval and bpf_set_retval,
that allows hooks to get/set the return value of syscall to userspace.
This also allows later progs to retrieve retval set by previous progs.

For legacy programs that rejects a syscall without setting the retval,
for backwards compatibility, if a prog rejects without itself or a
prior prog setting retval to an -err, the retval is set by the kernel
to -EPERM.

For getsockopt hooks that has ctx->retval, this variable mirrors that
that accessed by the helpers.

Additionally, the following user-visible behavior for getsockopt
hooks has changed:
- If a prior filter rejected the syscall, it will be visible
in ctx->retval.
- Attempting to change the retval arbitrarily is now allowed and
will not cause an -EFAULT.
- If kernel rejects a getsockopt syscall before running the hooks,
the error will be visible in ctx->retval. Returning 0 from the
prog will not overwrite the error to -EPERM unless there is an
explicit call of bpf_set_retval(-EPERM)

Tests have been added in this series to test the behavior of the helper
with cgroup setsockopt getsockopt hooks.

Patch 1 changes the API of macros to prepare for the next patch and
should be a no-op.
Patch 2 moves ctx->retval to a struct pointed to by current
task_struct.
Patch 3 implements the helpers.
Patch 4 tests the behaviors of the helpers.
Patch 5 updates a test after the test broke due to the visible changes.

v1 -> v2:
- errno -> retval
- split one helper to get & set helpers
- allow retval to be set arbitrarily in the general case
- made the helper retval and context retval mirror each other

selftests/bpf: Test bpf_{get,set}_retval behavior with cgroup/sockopt

The tests checks how different ways of interacting with the helpers
(getting retval, setting EUNATCH, EISCONN, and legacy reject
returning 0 without setting retval), produce different results in
both the setsockopt syscall and the retval returned by the helper.
A few more tests verify the interaction between the retval of the
helper and the retval in getsockopt context.
