Pull driver core and debugfs updates from Greg KH:
"Here is the big set of driver core and debugfs updates for 6.14-rc1.
Included in here is a bunch of driver core, PCI, OF, and platform rust
bindings (all acked by the different subsystem maintainers), hence the
merge conflict with the rust tree, and some driver core api updates to
mark things as const, which will also require some fixups due to new
stuff coming in through other trees in this merge window.
There are also a bunch of debugfs updates from Al, and there is at
least one user that does have a regression with these, but Al is
working on tracking down the fix for it. In my use (and everyone
else's linux-next use), it does not seem like a big issue at the
moment.
Here's a short list of the things in here:
- driver core rust bindings for PCI, platform, OF, and some i/o
functions.
We are almost at the "write a real driver in rust" stage now,
depending on what you want to do.
- misc device rust bindings and a sample driver to show how to use
them
- debugfs cleanups in the fs as well as the users of the fs api for
places where drivers got it wrong or were unnecessarily doing
things in complex ways.
- driver core const work, making more of the api take const * for
different parameters to make the rust bindings easier overall.
- other small fixes and updates
All of these have been in linux-next with all of the aforementioned
merge conflicts, and the one debugfs issue, which looks to be resolved
"soon""

Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
"This is slightly smaller than usual, with the most interesting work
being still around RTNL scope reduction.
Core:
- More core refactoring to reduce the RTNL lock contention, including
preparatory work for the per-network namespace RTNL lock, replacing
RTNL lock with a per device-one to protect NAPI-related net device
data and moving synchronize_net() calls outside such lock.
- Extend drop reasons usage, adding net scheduler, AF_UNIX, bridge
and more specific TCP coverage.
- Reduce network namespace tear-down time by removing per-subsystems
synchronize_net() in tipc and sched.
- Add flow label selector support for fib rules, allowing traffic
redirection based on such header field.
Netfilter:
- Do not remove netdev basechain when last device is gone, allowing
netdev basechains without devices.
- Revisit the flowtable teardown strategy, dealing better with fin,
reset and re-open events.
- Scale-up IP-vs connection dumping by avoiding linear search on each
restart.
Protocols:
- A significant XDP socket refactor, consolidating and optimizing
several helpers into the core
- Better scaling of ICMP rate-limiting, by removing false-sharing in
inet peers handling.
- Introduces netlink notifications for multicast IPv4 and IPv6
address changes.
- Add ipsec support for IP-TFS/AggFrag encapsulation, allowing
aggregation and fragmentation of the inner IP.
- Add sysctl to configure TIME-WAIT reuse delay for TCP sockets, to
avoid local port exhaustion issues when the average connection
lifetime is very short.
- Support updating keys (re-keying) for connections using kernel TLS
(for TLS 1.3 only).
- Support ipv4-mapped ipv6 address clients in smc-r v2.
- Add support for jumbo data packet transmission in RxRPC sockets,
gluing multiple data packets in a single UDP packet.
- Support RxRPC RACK-TLP to manage packet loss and retransmission in
conjunction with the congestion control algorithm.
Driver API:
- Introduce a unified and structured interface for reporting PHY
statistics, exposing consistent data across different H/W via
ethtool.
- Make timestamping selectable, allow the user to select the desired
hwtstamp provider (PHY or MAC) administratively.
- Add support for configuring a header-data-split threshold (HDS)
value via ethtool, to deal with partial or buggy H/W
implementation.
- Consolidate DSA drivers Energy Efficiency Ethernet support.
- Add EEE management to phylink, making use of the phylib
implementation.
- Add phylib support for in-band capabilities negotiation.
- Simplify how phylib-enabled mac drivers expose the supported
interfaces.
Tests and tooling:
- Make the YNL tool package-friendly to make it easier to deploy it
separately from the kernel.
- Increase TCP selftest coverage importing several packetdrill
test-cases.
- Regenerate the ethtool uapi header from the YNL spec, to ease
maintenance and future development.

Pull kthread updates from Frederic Weisbecker:
"Kthreads affinity follow either of 4 existing different patterns:
1) Per-CPU kthreads must stay affine to a single CPU and never
execute relevant code on any other CPU. This is currently handled
by smpboot code which takes care of CPU-hotplug operations.
Affinity here is a correctness constraint.
2) Some kthreads _have_ to be affine to a specific set of CPUs and
can't run anywhere else. The affinity is set through
kthread_bind_mask() and the subsystem takes care by itself to
handle CPU-hotplug operations. Affinity here is assumed to be a
correctness constraint.
3) Per-node kthreads _prefer_ to be affine to a specific NUMA node.
This is not a correctness constraint but merely a preference in
terms of memory locality. kswapd and kcompactd both fall into this
category. The affinity is set manually like for any other task and
CPU-hotplug is supposed to be handled by the relevant subsystem so
that the task is properly reaffined whenever a given CPU from the
node comes up. Also care should be taken so that the node affinity
doesn't cross isolated (nohz_full) cpumask boundaries.
4) Similar to the previous point except kthreads have a _preferred_
affinity different than a node. Both RCU boost kthreads and RCU
exp kworkers fall into this category as they refer to "RCU nodes"
from a distinctly distributed tree.
Currently the preferred affinity patterns (3 and 4) have at least 4
identified users, with more or less success when it comes to handle
CPU-hotplug operations and CPU isolation. Each of which do it in its
own ad-hoc way.
This is an infrastructure proposal to handle this with the following
API changes:
- kthread_create_on_node() automatically affines the created kthread
to its target node unless it has been set as per-cpu or bound with
kthread_bind[_mask]() before the first wake-up.
- kthread_affine_preferred() is a new function that can be called
right after kthread_create_on_node() to specify a preferred
affinity different than the specified node.
When the preferred affinity can't be applied because the possible
targets are offline or isolated (nohz_full), the kthread is affine to
the housekeeping CPUs (which means to all online CPUs most of the time
or only the non-nohz_full CPUs when nohz_full= is set).
kswapd, kcompactd, RCU boost kthreads and RCU exp kworkers have been
converted, along with a few old drivers.
Summary of the changes:
- Consolidate a bunch of ad-hoc implementations of
kthread_run_on_cpu()
- Introduce task_cpu_fallback_mask() that defines the default last
resort affinity of a task to become nohz_full aware
- Add some correctness check to ensure kthread_bind() is always
called before the first kthread wake up.
- Default affine kthread to its preferred node.
- Convert kswapd / kcompactd and remove their halfway working ad-hoc
affinity implementation
- Implement kthreads preferred affinity
- Unify kthread worker and kthread API's style
- Convert RCU kthreads to the new API and remove the ad-hoc affinity
implementation"

kthread_create() creates a kthread without running it yet. kthread_run()
creates a kthread and runs it.
On the other hand, kthread_create_worker() creates a kthread worker and
runs it.
This difference in behaviours is confusing. Also there is no way to
create a kthread worker and affine it using kthread_bind_mask() or
kthread_affine_preferred() before starting it.
Consolidate the behaviours and introduce kthread_run_worker[_on_cpu]()
that behaves just like kthread_run(). kthread_create_worker[_on_cpu]()
will now only create a kthread worker without starting it.

Constify the following API:
struct device *device_find_child(struct device *dev, void *data,
int (*match)(struct device *dev, void *data));
To :
struct device *device_find_child(struct device *dev, const void *data,
device_match_t match);
typedef int (*device_match_t)(struct device *dev, const void *data);
with the following reasons:
- Protect caller's match data @*data which is for comparison and lookup
and the API does not actually need to modify @*data.
- Make the API's parameters (@match)() and @data have the same type as
all of other device finding APIs (bus|class|driver)_find_device().
- All kinds of existing device match functions can be directly taken
as the API's argument, they were exported by driver core.
Constify the API and adapt for various existing usages.
BTW, various subsystem changes are squashed into this commit to meet
'git bisect' requirement, and this commit has the minimal and simplest
changes to complement squashing shortcoming, and that may bring extra
code improvement.

Robert Hodaszi reports that locally terminated traffic towards
VLAN-unaware bridge ports is broken with ocelot-8021q. He is describing
the same symptoms as for commit 1f9fc48fd3 ("net: dsa: sja1105: fix
reception from VLAN-unaware bridges").
For context, the set merged as "VLAN fixes for Ocelot driver":
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20240815000707.2006121-1-vladimir.oltean@nxp.com/
was developed in a slightly different form earlier this year, in January.
Initially, the switch was unconditionally configured to set OCELOT_ES0_TAG
when using ocelot-8021q, regardless of port operating mode.
This led to the situation where VLAN-unaware bridge ports would always
push their PVID - see ocelot_vlan_unaware_pvid() - a negligible value
anyway - into RX packets. To strip this in software, we would have needed
DSA to know what private VID the switch chose for VLAN-unaware bridge
ports, and pushed into the packets. This was implemented downstream, and
a remnant of it remains in the form of a comment mentioning
ds->ops->get_private_vid(), as something which would maybe need to be
considered in the future.
However, for upstream, it was deemed inappropriate, because it would
mean introducing yet another behavior for stripping VLAN tags from
VLAN-unaware bridge ports, when one already existed (ds->untag_bridge_pvid).
The latter has been marked as obsolete along with an explanation why it
is logically broken, but still, it would have been confusing.
So, for upstream, felix_update_tag_8021q_rx_rule() was developed, which
essentially changed the state of affairs from "Felix with ocelot-8021q
delivers all packets as VLAN-tagged towards the CPU" into "Felix with
ocelot-8021q delivers all packets from VLAN-aware bridge ports towards
the CPU". This was done on the premise that in VLAN-unaware mode,
there's nothing useful in the VLAN tags, and we can avoid introducing
ds->ops->get_private_vid() in the DSA receive path if we configure the
switch to not push those VLAN tags into packets in the first place.
Unfortunately, and this is when the trainwreck started, the selftests
developed initially and posted with the series were not re-ran.
dsa_software_vlan_untag() was initially written given the assumption
that users of this feature would send _all_ traffic as VLAN-tagged.
It was only partially adapted to the new scheme, by removing
ds->ops->get_private_vid(), which also used to be necessary in
standalone ports mode.
Where the trainwreck became even worse is that I had a second opportunity
to think about this, when the dsa_software_vlan_untag() logic change
initially broke sja1105, in commit 1f9fc48fd3 ("net: dsa: sja1105: fix
reception from VLAN-unaware bridges"). I did not connect the dots that
it also breaks ocelot-8021q, for pretty much the same reason that not
all received packets will be VLAN-tagged.
To be compatible with the optimized Felix control path which runs
felix_update_tag_8021q_rx_rule() to only push VLAN tags when useful (in
VLAN-aware mode), we need to restore the old dsa_software_vlan_untag()
logic. The blamed commit introduced the assumption that
dsa_software_vlan_untag() will see only VLAN-tagged packets, assumption
which is false. What corrupts RX traffic is the fact that we call
skb_vlan_untag() on packets which are not VLAN-tagged in the first
place.

The blamed commit changed the dsa_8021q_rcv() calling convention to
accept pre-populated source_port and switch_id arguments. If those are
not available, as in the case of tag_ocelot_8021q, the arguments must be
pre-initialized with -1.
Due to the bug of passing uninitialized arguments in tag_ocelot_8021q,
dsa_8021q_rcv() does not detect that it needs to populate the
source_port and switch_id, and this makes dsa_conduit_find_user() fail,
which leads to packet loss on reception.

If the CPU bandwidth capacity permits, it may be useful to mirror the
entire ingress of a user port to software.
This is in fact possible to express even if there is no net_device
representation for the CPU port. In fact, that approach was already
exhausted and that representation wouldn't have even helped [1].
The idea behind implementing this is that currently, we refuse to
offload any mirroring towards a non-DSA target net_device. But if we
acknowledge the fact that to reach any foreign net_device, the switch
must send the packet to the CPU anyway, then we can simply offload just
that part, and let the software do the rest. There is only one condition
we need to uphold: the filter needs to be present in the software data
path as well (no skip_sw).
There are 2 actions to consider: FLOW_ACTION_MIRRED (redirect to egress
of target interface) and FLOW_ACTION_MIRRED_INGRESS (redirect to ingress
of target interface). We don't have the ability/API to offload
FLOW_ACTION_MIRRED_INGRESS when the target port is also a DSA user port,
but we could also permit that through mirred to the CPU + software.
Example:
$ ip link add dummy0 type dummy; ip link set dummy0 up
$ tc qdisc add dev swp0 clsact
$ tc filter add dev swp0 ingress matchall action mirred ingress mirror dev dummy0
Any DSA driver with a ds->ops->port_mirror_add() implementation can now
make use of this with no additional change.

The body is a bit hard to read, hard to extend, and has duplicated
conditions.
Clean up the "if (many conditions) else if (many conditions, some
of them repeated)" pattern by:
- Moving the repeated conditions out
- Replacing the repeated tests for the same variable with a switch/case
- Moving the protocol check inside the dsa_user_add_cls_matchall_mirred()
function call.
This is pure refactoring, no logic has been changed, though some tests
were reordered. The order does not matter - they are independent things
to be tested for.
