git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next Pull networking deletions from Jakub Kicinski: "Delete some obsolete networking code Old code like amateur radio and NFC have long been a burden to core networking developers. syzbot loves to find bugs in BKL-era code, and noobs try to fix them. If we want to have a fighting chance of surviving the LLM-pocalypse this code needs to find a dedicated owner or get deleted. We've talked about these deletions multiple times in the past and every time someone wanted the code to stay. It is never very clear to me how many of those people actually use the code vs are just nostalgic to see it go. Amateur radio did have occasional users (or so I think) but most users switched to user space implementations since its all super slow stuff. Nobody stepped up to maintain the kernel code. We were lucky enough to find someone who wants to help with NFC so we're giving that a chance. Let's try to put the rest of this code behind us" * tag 'net-deletions' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next: drivers: net: 8390: wd80x3: Remove this driver drivers: net: 8390: ultra: Remove this driver drivers: net: 8390: AX88190: Remove this driver drivers: net: fujitsu: fmvj18x: Remove this driver drivers: net: smsc: smc91c92: Remove this driver drivers: net: smsc: smc9194: Remove this driver drivers: net: amd: nmclan: Remove this driver drivers: net: amd: lance: Remove this driver drivers: net: 3com: 3c589: Remove this driver drivers: net: 3com: 3c574: Remove this driver drivers: net: 3com: 3c515: Remove this driver drivers: net: 3com: 3c509: Remove this driver net: packetengines: remove obsolete yellowfin driver and vendor dir net: packetengines: remove obsolete hamachi driver net: remove unused ATM protocols and legacy ATM device drivers net: remove ax25 and amateur radio (hamradio) subsystem net: remove ISDN subsystem and Bluetooth CMTP caif: remove CAIF NETWORK LAYER

2026-04-23tcp: call sk_data_ready() after listener migrationZhenzhong Wu
When inet_csk_listen_stop() migrates an established child socket from a closing listener to another socket in the same SO_REUSEPORT group, the target listener gets a new accept-queue entry via inet_csk_reqsk_queue_add(), but that path never notifies the target listener's waiters. A nonblocking accept() still works because it checks the queue directly, but poll()/epoll_wait() waiters and blocking accept() callers can also remain asleep indefinitely. Call READ_ONCE(nsk->sk_data_ready)(nsk) after a successful migration in inet_csk_listen_stop(). However, after inet_csk_reqsk_queue_add() succeeds, the ref acquired in reuseport_migrate_sock() is effectively transferred to nreq->rsk_listener. Another CPU can then dequeue nreq via accept() or listener shutdown, hit reqsk_put(), and drop that listener ref. Since listeners are SOCK_RCU_FREE, wrap the post-queue_add() dereferences of nsk in rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unlock(), which also covers the existing sock_net(nsk) access in that path. The reqsk_timer_handler() path does not need the same changes for two reasons: half-open requests become readable only after the final ACK, where tcp_child_process() already wakes the listener; and once nreq is visible via inet_ehash_insert(), the success path no longer touches nsk directly.

2026-04-23ipv4: icmp: validate reply type before using icmp_pointersRuide Cao
Extended echo replies use ICMP_EXT_ECHOREPLY as the outbound reply type. That value is outside the range covered by icmp_pointers[], which only describes the traditional ICMP types up to NR_ICMP_TYPES. Avoid consulting icmp_pointers[] for reply types outside that range, and use array_index_nospec() for the remaining in-range lookup. Normal ICMP replies keep their existing behavior unchanged.

2026-04-23tcp: send a challenge ACK on SEG.ACK > SND.NXTJiayuan Chen
RFC 5961 Section 5.2 validates an incoming segment's ACK value against the range [SND.UNA - MAX.SND.WND, SND.NXT] and states: "All incoming segments whose ACK value doesn't satisfy the above condition MUST be discarded and an ACK sent back." Commit 354e4aa391ed ("tcp: RFC 5961 5.2 Blind Data Injection Attack Mitigation") opted Linux into this mitigation and implements the challenge ACK on the lower side (SEG.ACK < SND.UNA - MAX.SND.WND), but the symmetric upper side (SEG.ACK > SND.NXT) still takes the pre-RFC-5961 path and silently returns SKB_DROP_REASON_TCP_ACK_UNSENT_DATA, even though RFC 793 Section 3.9 (now RFC 9293 Section 3.10.7.4) has always required: "If the ACK acknowledges something not yet sent (SEG.ACK > SND.NXT) then send an ACK, drop the segment, and return." Complete the mitigation by sending a challenge ACK on that branch, reusing the existing tcp_send_challenge_ack() path which already enforces the per-socket RFC 5961 Section 7 rate limit via __tcp_oow_rate_limited(). FLAG_NO_CHALLENGE_ACK is honoured for symmetry with the lower-edge case. Update the existing tcp_ts_recent_invalid_ack.pkt selftest, which drives this exact path, to consume the new challenge ACK.

2026-04-23net: remove ax25 and amateur radio (hamradio) subsystemJakub Kicinski
Remove the amateur radio (AX.25, NET/ROM, ROSE) protocol implementation and all associated hamradio device drivers from the kernel tree. This set of protocols has long been a huge bug/syzbot magnet, and since nobody stepped up to help us deal with the influx of the AI-generated bug reports we need to move it out of tree to protect our sanity. The code is moved to an out-of-tree repo: https://github.com/linux-netdev/mod-orphan if it's cleaned up and reworked there we can accept it back. Minimal stub headers are kept for include/net/ax25.h (AX25_P_IP, AX25_ADDR_LEN, ax25_address) and include/net/rose.h (ROSE_ADDR_LEN) so that the conditional integration code in arp.c and tun.c continues to compile and work when the out-of-tree modules are loaded.

2026-04-20netfilter: nat: use kfree_rcu to release opsPablo Neira Ayuso
Florian Westphal says: "Historically this is not an issue, even for normal base hooks: the data path doesn't use the original nf_hook_ops that are used to register the callbacks. However, in v5.14 I added the ability to dump the active netfilter hooks from userspace. This code will peek back into the nf_hook_ops that are available at the tail of the pointer-array blob used by the datapath. The nat hooks are special, because they are called indirectly from the central nat dispatcher hook. They are currently invisible to the nfnl hook dump subsystem though. But once that changes the nat ops structures have to be deferred too." Update nf_nat_register_fn() to deal with partial exposition of the hooks from error path which can be also an issue for nfnetlink_hook.

2026-04-16nexthop: fix IPv6 route referencing IPv4 nexthopJiayuan Chen
syzbot reported a panic [1] [2]. When an IPv6 nexthop is replaced with an IPv4 nexthop, the has_v4 flag of all groups containing this nexthop is not updated. This is because nh_group_v4_update is only called when replacing AF_INET to AF_INET6, but the reverse direction (AF_INET6 to AF_INET) is missed. This allows a stale has_v4=false to bypass fib6_check_nexthop, causing IPv6 routes to be attached to groups that effectively contain only AF_INET members. Subsequent route lookups then call nexthop_fib6_nh() which returns NULL for the AF_INET member, leading to a NULL pointer dereference. Fix by calling nh_group_v4_update whenever the family changes, not just AF_INET to AF_INET6. Reproducer: # AF_INET6 blackhole ip -6 nexthop add id 1 blackhole # group with has_v4=false ip nexthop add id 100 group 1 # replace with AF_INET (no -6), has_v4 stays false ip nexthop replace id 1 blackhole # pass stale has_v4 check ip -6 route add 2001:db8::/64 nhid 100 # panic ping -6 2001:db8::1 [1] https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?id=e17283eb2f8dcf3dd9b47fe6f67a95f71faadad0 [2] https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?id=8699b6ae54c9f35837d925686208402949e12ef3 Fixes: 7bf4796dd099 ("nexthops: add support for replace") Signed-off-by: Jiayuan Chen <jiayuan.chen@linux.dev> Reviewed-by: David Ahern <dsahern@kernel.org> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260413114522.147784-1-jiayuan.chen@linux.dev Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com>

2026-04-13udp: Force compute_score to always inlineGabriel Krisman Bertazi
Back in 2024 I reported a 7-12% regression on an iperf3 UDP loopback thoughput test that we traced to the extra overhead of calling compute_score on two places, introduced by commit f0ea27e7bfe1 ("udp: re-score reuseport groups when connected sockets are present"). At the time, I pointed out the overhead was caused by the multiple calls, associated with cpu-specific mitigations, and merged commit 50aee97d1511 ("udp: Avoid call to compute_score on multiple sites") to jump back explicitly, to force the rescore call in a single place. Recently though, we got another regression report against a newer distro version, which a team colleague traced back to the same root-cause. Turns out that once we updated to gcc-13, the compiler got smart enough to unroll the loop, undoing my previous mitigation. Let's bite the bullet and __always_inline compute_score on both ipv4 and ipv6 to prevent gcc from de-optimizing it again in the future. These functions are only called in two places each, udpX_lib_lookup1 and udpX_lib_lookup2, so the extra size shouldn't be a problem and it is hot enough to be very visible in profilings. In fact, with gcc13, forcing the inline will prevent gcc from unrolling the fix from commit 50aee97d1511, so we don't end up increasing udpX_lib_lookup2 at all. I haven't recollected the results myself, as I don't have access to the machine at the moment. But the same colleague reported 4.67% inprovement with this patch in the loopback benchmark, solving the regression report within noise margins. Eric Dumazet reported no size change to vmlinux when built with clang.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs Pull vfs i_ino updates from Christian Brauner: "For historical reasons, the inode->i_ino field is an unsigned long, which means that it's 32 bits on 32 bit architectures. This has caused a number of filesystems to implement hacks to hash a 64-bit identifier into a 32-bit field, and deprives us of a universal identifier field for an inode. This changes the inode->i_ino field from an unsigned long to a u64. This shouldn't make any material difference on 64-bit hosts, but 32-bit hosts will see struct inode grow by at least 4 bytes. This could have effects on slabcache sizes and field alignment. The bulk of the changes are to format strings and tracepoints, since the kernel itself doesn't care that much about the i_ino field. The first patch changes some vfs function arguments, so check that one out carefully. With this change, we may be able to shrink some inode structures. For instance, struct nfs_inode has a fileid field that holds the 64-bit inode number. With this set of changes, that field could be eliminated.

2026-04-13tcp: update window_clamp when SO_RCVBUF is setJakub Kicinski
Commit under Fixes moved recomputing the window clamp to tcp_measure_rcv_mss() (when scaling_ratio changes). I suspect it missed the fact that we don't recompute the clamp when rcvbuf is set. Until scaling_ratio changes we are stuck with the old window clamp which may be based on the small initial buffer. scaling_ratio may never change. Inspired by Eric's recent commit d1361840f8c5 ("tcp: fix SO_RCVLOWAT and RCVBUF autotuning") plumb the user action thru to TCP and have it update the clamp. A smaller fix would be to just have tcp_rcvbuf_grow() adjust the clamp even if SOCK_RCVBUF_LOCK is set. But IIUC this is what we were trying to get away from in the first place.

2026-04-07xfrm: hold dev ref until after transport_finish NF_HOOKQi Tang
After async crypto completes, xfrm_input_resume() calls dev_put() immediately on re-entry before the skb reaches transport_finish. The skb->dev pointer is then used inside NF_HOOK and its okfn, which can race with device teardown. Remove the dev_put from the async resumption entry and instead drop the reference after the NF_HOOK call in transport_finish, using a saved device pointer since NF_HOOK may consume the skb. This covers NF_DROP, NF_QUEUE and NF_STOLEN paths that skip the okfn. For non-transport exits (decaps, gro, drop) and secondary async return points, release the reference inline when async is set.

2026-04-03ipv4: icmp: fix null-ptr-deref in icmp_build_probe()Yiqi Sun
ipv6_stub->ipv6_dev_find() may return ERR_PTR(-EAFNOSUPPORT) when the IPv6 stack is not active (CONFIG_IPV6=m and not loaded), and passing this error pointer to dev_hold() will cause a kernel crash with null-ptr-deref. Instead, silently discard the request. RFC 8335 does not appear to define a specific response for the case where an IPv6 interface identifier is syntactically valid but the implementation cannot perform the lookup at runtime, and silently dropping the request may safer than misreporting "No Such Interface".

2026-04-03ipv4: nexthop: allocate skb dynamically in rtm_get_nexthop()Fernando Fernandez Mancera
When querying a nexthop object via RTM_GETNEXTHOP, the kernel currently allocates a fixed-size skb using NLMSG_GOODSIZE. While sufficient for single nexthops and small Equal-Cost Multi-Path groups, this fixed allocation fails for large nexthop groups like 512 nexthops. This results in the following warning splat: WARNING: net/ipv4/nexthop.c:3395 at rtm_get_nexthop+0x176/0x1c0, CPU#20: rep/4608 [...] RIP: 0010:rtm_get_nexthop (net/ipv4/nexthop.c:3395) [...] Call Trace: <TASK> rtnetlink_rcv_msg (net/core/rtnetlink.c:6989) netlink_rcv_skb (net/netlink/af_netlink.c:2550) netlink_unicast (net/netlink/af_netlink.c:1319 net/netlink/af_netlink.c:1344) netlink_sendmsg (net/netlink/af_netlink.c:1894) ____sys_sendmsg (net/socket.c:721 net/socket.c:736 net/socket.c:2585) ___sys_sendmsg (net/socket.c:2641) __sys_sendmsg (net/socket.c:2671) do_syscall_64 (arch/x86/entry/syscall_64.c:63 arch/x86/entry/syscall_64.c:94) entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe (arch/x86/entry/entry_64.S:130) </TASK> Fix this by allocating the size dynamically using nh_nlmsg_size() and using nlmsg_new(), this is consistent with nexthop_notify() behavior. In addition, adjust nh_nlmsg_size_grp() so it calculates the size needed based on flags passed. While at it, also add the size of NHA_FDB for nexthop group size calculation as it was missing too.

As IPv6 is built-in only, the ipv6_stub infrastructure is no longer necessary. The IPv4 stack interacts with IPv6 mainly to support IPv4 routes with IPv6 next-hops (RFC 8950).

2026-03-29ipv6: convert CONFIG_IPV6 to built-in only and clean up KconfigsFernando Fernandez Mancera
Maintaining a modular IPv6 stack offers image size savings for specific setups, this benefit is outweighed by the architectural burden it imposes on the subsystems on implementation and maintenance. Therefore, drop it. Change CONFIG_IPV6 from tristate to bool. Remove all Kconfig dependencies across the tree that explicitly checked for IPV6=m. In addition, remove MODULE_DESCRIPTION(), MODULE_ALIAS(), MODULE_AUTHOR() and MODULE_LICENSE(). This is also replacing module_init() by device_initcall(). It is not possible to use fs_initcall() as IPv4 does because that creates a race condition on IPv6 addrconf. Finally, modify the default configs from CONFIG_IPV6=m to CONFIG_IPV6=y except for m68k as according to the bloat-o-meter the image is increasing by 330KB~ and that isn't acceptable. Instead, disable IPv6 on this architecture by default. This is aligned with m68k RAM requirements and recommendations [1].
