Pull pci updates from Bjorn Helgaas:
 "Enumeration:

   - Allow TLP Processing Hints to be enabled for RCiEPs (George Abraham
     P)

   - Enable AtomicOps only if we know the Root Port supports them (Gerd
     Bayer)

   - Don't enable AtomicOps for RCiEPs since none of them need Atomic
     Ops and we can't tell whether the Root Complex would support them
     (Gerd Bayer)

   - Leave Precision Time Measurement disabled until a driver enables it
     to avoid PCIe errors (Mika Westerberg)

   - Make pci_set_vga_state() fail if bridge doesn't support VGA
     routing, i.e., PCI_BRIDGE_CTL_VGA is not writable, and return
     errors to vga_get() callers including userspace via
     /dev/vga_arbiter (Simon Richter)

   - Validate max-link-speed from DT in j721e, brcmstb, mediatek-gen3,
     rzg3s drivers (where the actual controller constraints are known),
     and remove validation from the generic OF DT accessor (Hans Zhang)

   - Remove pc110pad driver (no longer useful after 486 CPU support
     removed) and no_pci_devices() (pc110pad was the last user) (Dmitry
     Torokhov, Heiner Kallweit)

  Resource management:

   - Prevent assigning space to unimplemented bridge windows; previously
     we mistakenly assumed prefetchable window existed and assigned
     space and put a BAR there (Ahmed Naseef)

   - Avoid shrinking bridge windows to fit in the initial Root Port
     window; fixes one problem with devices with large BARs connected
     via switches, e.g., Thunderbolt (Ilpo Järvinen)

   - Pass full extent of empty space, not just the aligned space, to
     resource_alignf callback so free space before the requested
     alignment can be used (Ilpo Järvinen)

   - Place small resources before larger ones for better utilization of
     address space (Ilpo Järvinen)

   - Fix alignment calculation for resource size larger than align,
     e.g., bridge windows larger than the 1MB required alignment (Ilpo
     Järvinen)

  Reset:

   - Update slot handling so all ARI functions are treated as being in
     the same slot. They're all reset by Secondary Bus Reset, but
     previously drivers of ARI functions that appeared to be on a
     non-zero device weren't notified and fatal hardware errors could
     result (Keith Busch)

   - Make sysfs reset_subordinate hotplug safe to avoid spurious hotplug
     events (Keith Busch)

   - Hide Secondary Bus Reset ('bus') from sysfs reset_methods if masked
     by CXL because it has no effect (Vidya Sagar)

   - Avoid FLR for AMD NPU device, where it causes the device to hang
     (Lizhi Hou)

  Error handling:

   - Clear only error bits in PCIe Device Status to avoid accidentally
     clearing Emergency Power Reduction Detected (Shuai Xue)

   - Check for AER errors even in devices without drivers (Lukas Wunner)

   - Initialize ratelimit info so DPC and EDR paths log AER error
     information (Kuppuswamy Sathyanarayanan)

  Power control:

   - Add UPD720201/UPD720202 USB 3.0 xHCI Host Controller .compatible so
     generic pwrctrl driver can control it (Neil Armstrong)

  Hotplug:

   - Set LED_HW_PLUGGABLE for NPEM hotplug-capable ports so LED core
     doesn't complain when setting brightness fails because the endpoint
     is gone (Richard Cheng)

  Peer-to-peer DMA:

   - Allow wildcards in list of host bridges that support peer-to-peer
     DMA between hierarchy domains and add all Google SoCs (Jacob
     Moroni)

  Endpoint framework:

   - Advertise dynamic inbound mapping support in pci-epf-test and
     update host pci_endpoint_test to skip doorbell testing if not
     advertised by endpoint (Koichiro Den)

   - Return 0, not remaining timeout, when MHI eDMA ops complete so
     mhi_ep_ring_add_element() doesn't interpret non-zero as failure
     (Daniel Hodges)

   - Remove vntb and ntb duplicate resource teardown that leads to oops
     when .allow_link() fails or .drop_link() is called (Koichiro Den)

   - Disable vntb delayed work before clearing BAR mappings and
     doorbells to avoid oops caused by doing the work after resources
     have been torn down (Koichiro Den)

   - Add a way to describe reserved subregions within BARs, e.g.,
     platform-owned fixed register windows, and use it for the RK3588
     BAR4 DMA ctrl window (Koichiro Den)

   - Add BAR_DISABLED for BARs that will never be available to an EPF
     driver, and change some BAR_RESERVED annotations to BAR_DISABLED
     (Niklas Cassel)

   - Add NTB .get_dma_dev() callback for cases where DMA API requires a
     different device, e.g., vNTB devices (Koichiro Den)

   - Add reserved region types for MSI-X Table and PBA so Endpoint
     controllers can them as describe hardware-owned regions in a
     BAR_RESERVED BAR (Manikanta Maddireddy)

   - Make Tegra194/234 BAR0 programmable and remove 1MB size limit
     (Manikanta Maddireddy)

   - Expose Tegra BAR2 (MSI-X) and BAR4 (DMA) as 64-bit BAR_RESERVED
     (Manikanta Maddireddy)

   - Add Tegra194 and Tegra234 device table entries to pci_endpoint_test
     (Manikanta Maddireddy)

   - Skip the BAR subrange selftest if there are not enough inbound
     window resources to run the test (Christian Bruel)

  Baikal T-1 PCIe controller driver:

   - Remove driver since it never quite became usable (Andy Shevchenko)

   - Implement byte/word config reads with dword (32-bit) reads because
     some Cadence controllers don't support sub-dword accesses (Aksh
     Garg)

  CIX Sky1 PCIe controller driver:

   - Add 'power-domains' to DT binding for SCMI power domain (Gary Yang)

  Freescale i.MX6 PCIe controller driver:

   - Add i.MX94 and i.MX943 to fsl,imx6q-pcie-ep DT binding (Richard
     Zhu)

   - Delay instead of polling for L2/L3 Ready after PME_Turn_off when
     suspending i.MX6SX because LTSSM registers are inaccessible
     (Richard Zhu)

   - Separate PERST# assertion (for resetting endpoints) from core reset
     (for resetting the RC itself) to prepare for new DTs with PERST#
     GPIO in per-Root Port nodes (Sherry Sun)

   - Retain Root Port MSI capability on i.MX7D, i.MX8MM, and i.MX8MQ so
     MSI from downstream devices will work (Richard Zhu)

   - Fix i.MX95 reference clock source selection when internal refclk is
     used (Franz Schnyder)

  Freescale Layerscape PCIe controller driver:

   - Allow building as a removable module (Sascha Hauer)

  MediaTek PCIe Gen3 controller driver:

     transition to L2 (Vidya Sagar)

   - Disable LTSSM after transition to Detect on surprise link down to
     stop toggling between Polling and Detect (Manikanta Maddireddy)

   - Don't force the device into the D0 state before L2 when suspending
     or shutting down the controller (Vidya Sagar)

   - Disable PERST# IRQ only in Endpoint mode because it's not
     registered in Root Port mode (Manikanta Maddireddy)

   - Handle 'nvidia,refclk-select' as optional (Vidya Sagar)

   - Disable direct speed change in Endpoint mode so link speed change
     is controlled by the host (Vidya Sagar)

   - Set LTR values before link up to avoid bogus LTR messages with 0
     latency (Vidya Sagar)

   - Allow system suspend when the Endpoint link is down (Vidya Sagar)

   - Use DWC IP core version, not Tegra custom values, to avoid DWC core
     version check warnings (Manikanta Maddireddy)

   - Apply ECRC workaround to devices based on DesignWare 5.00a as well
     as 4.90a (Manikanta Maddireddy)

   - Disable PM Substate L1.2 in Endpoint mode to work around Tegra234
     erratum (Vidya Sagar)

   - Delay post-PERST# cleanup until core is powered on to avoid CBB
     timeout (Manikanta Maddireddy)

   - Assert CLKREQ# so switches that forward it to their downstream side
     can bring up those links successfully (Vidya Sagar)

   - Calibrate pipe to UPHY for Endpoint mode to reset stale PLL state
     from any previous bad link state (Vidya Sagar)

   - Remove IRQF_ONESHOT flag from Endpoint interrupt registration so
     DMA driver and Endpoint controller driver can share the interrupt
     line (Vidya Sagar)

   - Enable DMA interrupt to support DMA in both Root Port and Endpoint
     modes (Vidya Sagar)

   - Enable hardware link retraining after link goes down in Endpoint
     mode (Vidya Sagar)

   - Add DT binding and driver support for core clock monitoring (Vidya
     Sagar)

  Qualcomm PCIe controller driver:

   - Advertise 'Hot-Plug Capable' and set 'No Command Completed Support'
     since Qcom Root Ports support hotplug events like DL_Up/Down and
     can accept writes to Slot Control without delays between writes
     (Krishna Chaitanya Chundru)

  Renesas R-Car PCIe controller driver:

   - Mark Endpoint BAR0 and BAR2 as Resizable (Koichiro Den)

   - Reduce EPC BAR alignment requirement to 4K (Koichiro Den)

   - Assert resets in suspend path in reverse order they were deasserted
     during probe (John Madieu)

   - Rework inbound window algorithm to prevent mapping more than

   - Add tracepoints for PCIe controller LTSSM transitions and link rate
     changes (Shawn Lin)

   - Trace LTSSM events collected by the dw-rockchip debug FIFO (Shawn

     with PME_TO_Ack message (Manivannan Sadhasivam)

   - Set Endpoint MSI-X Table Size in the correct function of a
     multi-function device when configuring MSI-X, not in Function 0
     (Aksh Garg)

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
 "Core &amp; protocols:

   - Support HW queue leasing, allowing containers to be granted access
     to HW queues for zero-copy operations and AF_XDP

   - Number of code moves to help the compiler with inlining. Avoid
     output arguments for returning drop reason where possible

   - Rework drop handling within qdiscs to include more metadata about
     the reason and dropping qdisc in the tracepoints

   - Remove the rtnl_lock use from IP Multicast Routing

   - Pack size information into the Rx Flow Steering table pointer
     itself. This allows making the table itself a flat array of u32s,
     thus making the table allocation size a power of two

   - Report TCP delayed ack timer information via socket diag

   - Add ip_local_port_step_width sysctl to allow distributing the
     randomly selected ports more evenly throughout the allowed space

   - Add support for per-route tunsrc in IPv6 segment routing

   - Start work of switching sockopt handling to iov_iter

   - Improve dynamic recvbuf sizing in MPTCP, limit burstiness and avoid
     buffer size drifting up

   - Support MSG_EOR in MPTCP

   - Add stp_mode attribute to the bridge driver for STP mode selection.
     This addresses concerns about call_usermodehelper() usage

   - Remove UDP-Lite support (as announced in 2023)

   - Remove support for building IPv6 as a module. Remove the now
     unnecessary function calling indirection

  Cross-tree stuff:

   - Move Michael MIC code from generic crypto into wireless, it's
     considered insecure but some WiFi networks still need it

  Netfilter:

   - Switch nft_fib_ipv6 module to no longer need temporary dst_entry
     object allocations by using fib6_lookup() + RCU.

     Florian W reports this gets us ~13% higher packet rate

   - Convert IPVS's global __ip_vs_mutex to per-net service_mutex and
     switch the service tables to be per-net. Convert some code that
     walks the service lists to use RCU instead of the service_mutex

   - Add more opinionated input validation to lower security exposure

   - Make IPVS hash tables to be per-netns and resizable

  Wireless:

   - Finished assoc frame encryption/EPPKE/802.1X-over-auth

   - Radar detection improvements

   - Add 6 GHz incumbent signal detection APIs

   - Multi-link support for FILS, probe response templates and client
     probing

   - New APIs and mac80211 support for NAN (Neighbor Aware Networking,
     aka Wi-Fi Aware) so less work must be in firmware

  Driver API:

   - Add numerical ID for devlink instances (to avoid having to create
     fake bus/device pairs just to have an ID). Support shared devlink
     instances which span multiple PFs

   - Add standard counters for reporting pause storm events (implement
     in mlx5 and fbnic)

   - Add configuration API for completion writeback buffering (implement
     in mana)

   - Support driver-initiated change of RSS context sizes

   - Support DPLL monitoring input frequency (implement in zl3073x)

   - Support per-port resources in devlink (implement in mlx5)

  Misc:

   - Expand the YAML spec for Netfilter

Pull bpf updates from Alexei Starovoitov:

 - Welcome new BPF maintainers: Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi, Eduard
   Zingerman while Martin KaFai Lau reduced his load to Reviwer.

 - Lots of fixes everywhere from many first time contributors. Thank you
   All.

 - Diff stat is dominated by mechanical split of verifier.c into
   multiple components:

    - backtrack.c: backtracking logic and jump history
    - states.c:    state equivalence
    - cfg.c:       control flow graph, postorder, strongly connected
                   components
    - liveness.c:  register and stack liveness
    - fixups.c:    post-verification passes: instruction patching, dead
                   code removal, bpf_loop inlining, finalize fastcall

   8k line were moved. verifier.c still stands at 20k lines.

   Further refactoring is planned for the next release.

 - Replace dynamic stack liveness with static stack liveness based on
   data flow analysis.

   This improved the verification time by 2x for some programs and
   equally reduced memory consumption. New logic is in liveness.c and
   supported by constant folding in const_fold.c (Eduard Zingerman,
   Alexei Starovoitov)

 - Introduce BTF layout to ease addition of new BTF kinds (Alan Maguire)

 - Use kmalloc_nolock() universally in BPF local storage (Amery Hung)

 - Fix several bugs in linked registers delta tracking (Daniel Borkmann)

 - Improve verifier support of arena pointers (Emil Tsalapatis)

 - Improve verifier tracking of register bounds in min/max and tnum
   domains (Harishankar Vishwanathan, Paul Chaignon, Hao Sun)

 - Further extend support for implicit arguments in the verifier (Ihor
   Solodrai)

 - Add support for nop,nop5 instruction combo for USDT probes in libbpf
   (Jiri Olsa)

 - Support merging multiple module BTFs (Josef Bacik)

 - Extend applicability of bpf_kptr_xchg (Kaitao Cheng)

 - Retire rcu_trace_implies_rcu_gp() (Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi)

 - Support variable offset context access for 'syscall' programs (Kumar
   Kartikeya Dwivedi)

 - Migrate bpf_task_work and dynptr to kmalloc_nolock() (Mykyta
   Yatsenko)

 - Fix UAF in in open-coded task_vma iterator (Puranjay Mohan)

<content type='text'>
Add the following PPE configuration in airoha_ppe_hw_init routine:
- 6RD hw offloading is currently not supported by Netfilter flowtable.
  Disable explicitly PPE 6RD offloading in order to prevent PPE to learn
  6RD flows and eventually interrupt the traffic.
- Add missing PPE bind rate configuration for L3 and L2 traffic.
  PPE bind rate configuration specifies the pps threshold to move a PPE
  entry state from UNBIND to BIND. Without this configuration this value
  is random.
- Set ageing thresholds to the values used in the vendor SDK in order to
  improve connection stability under load and avoid packet loss caused by
  fast aging.

EN7581 and AN7583 SoCs have different VIP definitions. Introduce
get_vip_port callback in airoha_eth_soc_data struct in order to take
into account EN7581 and AN7583 VIP register layout and definition
differences.
Introduce nbq parameter in airoha_gdm_port struct. At the moment nbq
is set statically to value previously used in airhoha_set_gdm2_loopback
routine and it will be read from device tree in subsequent patches.

PCE_MC_EN_MASK bit in REG_FE_PCE_CFG configuration performed in
airoha_fe_init() is used to duplicate multicast packets and send a copy
to the CPU when the traffic is offloaded. This is necessary just if
it is requested by the user. Disable multicast packets duplication by
default.
