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

Rather than trying to keep multiple configs up to date, make
pseries_defconfig an alias for ppc64le_guest_defconfig.
NOTE, pseries_defconfig was a big endian config, but this commit
switches it to little endian.
Almost all distros are ppc64le these days, so little endian is much more
likely to be what a user wants when they build for "pseries".
For an actual big endian guest, use ppc64_guest_defconfig.

Add PPC_QEMU_E500 to corenet_base.config, which is then used to generate
corenet64_smp_defconfig and corenet32_smp_defconfig.
That then allows both those configs to build kernels that boot in qemu
using the ppce500 machine type and respectively -cpu e5500 or -cpu
e500mc.
The code that is added by PPC_QEMU_E500 just defines another machine
with a probe function that recognises qemu, so there should be no change
when booting on actual hardware supported by CORENET_GENERIC.
The increase in vmlinux size is less than 1KB.

Based on documentation revision dates, this MPC82xx pq2fads system
predates the MPC8272-ADS variant by about a year and only has 1/2
the amount of RAM (32MB) -- largely making it useless with a modern
v6.x kernel from today.
Similar to the MPC8272-ADS the pq2fads also supported other 82xx CPU
variants, had 8MB flash, and like the 8272 ADS platform, was on a fairly
large PCB in order to have space for breakout connectors for all features.
These 82xx platforms are two decades old, and originally made for a
small group of industry related people in order to assist in new OEM
board designs. Given that, it makes sense to remove support today.

This evaluation platform was essentially a single core 8641 with
integrated graphics/display support - in an effort to reduce chip count
on kiosk and similar applications.
Compared to other evaluation platforms considered for removal in other
recent commits, this platform was relatively rare. Unlike all the other
10+ platforms, I couldn't find any documentation on it - just a link to
downloading the 2007 era BSP in "LTIB" format as was done back then.
With all that in mind, it seems prudent to remove it here in 2023.

There is no denying that this was an interesting platform in its day.
Access to a SMP powerpc platform became a bit more obtainable for folks
in the BSP industry in the 2007 era, thanks to this platform.
Add to that the move to the black Antec case vs. the generic white 2005
era case of the MPC8548CDS or the retro 1950s 1/2 height horizontal case
of the HPC II, and it was pretty interesting to people like myself then.
However, like all the other evaluation platforms, the overall system
was complex out of necessity, as it tried to showcase all possible
features and use-cases. That included an AMP option, where you could run
two bootloaders and two kernels over two serial consoles. Peripheral
sharing got a bit more tricky when you got to the hard disk and similar.
In any case we still have the same circumstance. A relatively rare and
expensive evaluation platform that is now 15+ years old and not out there
in large numbers in the general public. Removal in 2023 just makes sense.

This was an interesting platform - it was the 1st instance of a
respin of earlier 130nm 74xx CPUs on 90nm and systems using MPC7448
were positioned as a rack server platform solution.
Given that, the evaluation platform (at least the one I had) was shipped
in a horizontal 1/2 height Antec desktop case with retro styling and
colours, despite the fact the docs explicitly stated that the HPC II is
not a desktop machine (noting it had no gfx or legacy PC I/O support).
Historic trivia aside, this was the 1st introduction of the e600
procfam as an evolution from the earlier G4.
However even with the claim to being "1st e600" it seems the 2005+
era was turning its attention to multicore support and from my memory
this poor guy was quickly overshadowed by the dual core MPC8641D.
All that aside, we are once again looking at 15+ year old evaluation
platforms that were not widely distributed, so 2023 removal makes sense.

This final variant in the e300 family of Modular Development System
(MDS) in this series was actually aimed at feature reduction - things
like floating point and ethernet were removed in order to make for a
lower power and lower cost system.
Like all the MDS systems, it was meant as a vehicle to get the CPU out
early to hardware OEMs so software and board development could take place
in parallel.
These were made in limited numbers and availability preference was given
to partners who were planning to make their own boards.
Given that the whole reason for existence was to assist in enabling new
board designs [not happening for 10+ years], and that they weren't
generally available, and that the hardware wasn't really hobbyist friendly
even for retro computing, it makes sense to retire the support for this
particular platform.

This next evolutionary step in the e300 family of Modular Development
System (MDS) still has, at its core component, a full length card with a
PCI edge. No case. Serial and network connectors were on card, so it
could optionally be fitted with plastic stand-offs and run stand-alone
off a power brick.
This is very similar to the MPC834x_MDS and MPC836x_MDS removed in the
prior commits, but with this board variant as yet another evolutionary
step. SATA and PCI-e were now available. But overall the form factor
and design goals were unchanged.

This 2006 era Modular Development System (MDS) has, at its core component,
a full length card with a PCI edge. No case. Serial and network
connectors were on card, so it could optionally be fitted with plastic
stand-offs and run stand-alone off a power brick.
This is very similar to the MPC834x_MDS removed in the prior commit, but

and the card edge was revised down to PCI-32 as PCI-64 never got traction.

To that end, the BGA CPU was held in place with a mechanical spring loaded
pressure assembly (vs. solder) so that early rev silicon could be replaced
in the field. Not for COTS deployment!
