"Core & 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:

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

switch the service tables to be per-net. Convert some code that
walks the service lists to use RCU instead of the service_mutex

kernfs has historically used const void * to pass around namespace tags
used for directory-level namespace filtering. The only current user of
this is sysfs network namespace tagging where struct net pointers are
cast to void *.
Replace all const void * namespace parameters with const struct
ns_common * throughout the kernfs, sysfs, and kobject namespace layers.
This includes the kobj_ns_type_operations callbacks, kobject_namespace(),
and all sysfs/kernfs APIs that accept or return namespace tags.
Passing struct ns_common is needed because various codepaths require
access to the underlying namespace. A struct ns_common can always be
converted back to the concrete namespace type (e.g., struct net) via
container_of() or to_ns_common() in the reverse direction.
This is a preparatory change for switching to ns_id-based directory
iteration to prevent a KASLR pointer leak through the current use of
raw namespace pointers as hash seeds and comparison keys.

Instead of storing the @log at the beginning of rps_dev_flow_table
use 5 low order bits of the rps_tag_ptr to store the log of the size.
This removes a potential cache line miss (for light traffic).
This allows us to switch to one high-order allocation instead of vmalloc()
when CONFIG_RFS_ACCEL is not set.

Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
"Core & protocols:
- Improve drop account scalability on NUMA hosts for RAW and UDP
sockets and the backlog, almost doubling the Pps capacity under DoS
- Optimize the UDP RX performance under stress, reducing contention,
revisiting the binary layout of the involved data structs and
implementing NUMA-aware locking. This improves UDP RX performance
by an additional 50%, even more under extreme conditions
- Add support for PSP encryption of TCP connections; this mechanism
has some similarities with IPsec and TLS, but offers superior HW
offloads capabilities
- Ongoing work to support Accurate ECN for TCP. AccECN allows more
than one congestion notification signal per RTT and is a building
block for Low Latency, Low Loss, and Scalable Throughput (L4S)
- Reorganize the TCP socket binary layout for data locality, reducing
the number of touched cachelines in the fastpath
- Refactor skb deferral free to better scale on large multi-NUMA
hosts, this improves TCP and UDP RX performances significantly on
such HW
- Increase the default socket memory buffer limits from 256K to 4M to
better fit modern link speeds
- Improve handling of setups with a large number of nexthop, making
dump operating scaling linearly and avoiding unneeded
synchronize_rcu() on delete
- Improve bridge handling of VLAN FDB, storing a single entry per
bridge instead of one entry per port; this makes the dump order of
magnitude faster on large switches
- Restore IP ID correctly for encapsulated packets at GSO
segmentation time, allowing GRO to merge packets in more scenarios
- Improve netfilter matching performance on large sets

introduced core infrastructure (skb deferral free) and adopting
recent TCP autotuning changes

This patch fixes an issue where two different flows on the same RXq
produce the same hash resulting in continuous flow overwrites.
Flow #1: A packet for Flow #1 comes in, kernel calls the steering
function. The driver gives back a filter id. The kernel saves
this filter id in the selected slot. Later, the driver's
service task checks if any filters have expired and then
installs the rule for Flow #1.
Flow #2: A packet for Flow #2 comes in. It goes through the same steps.
But this time, the chosen slot is being used by Flow #1. The
driver gives a new filter id and the kernel saves it in the
same slot. When the driver's service task runs, it runs through
all the flows, checks if Flow #1 should be expired, the kernel
returns True as the slot has a different filter id, and then
the driver installs the rule for Flow #2.
Flow #1: Another packet for Flow #1 comes in. The same thing repeats.
The slot is overwritten with a new filter id for Flow #1.
This causes a repeated cycle of flow programming for missed packets,
wasting CPU cycles while not improving performance. This problem happens
at higher rates when the RPS table is small, but tests show it still
happens even with 12,000 connections and an RPS size of 16K per queue
(global table size = 144x16K = 64K).
This patch prevents overwriting an rps_dev_flow entry if it is active.
The intention is that it is better to do aRFS for the first flow instead
of hurting all flows on the same hash. Without this, two (or more) flows
on one RX queue with the same hash can keep overwriting each other. This
causes the driver to reprogram the flow repeatedly.
Changes:
1. Add a new 'hash' field to struct rps_dev_flow.
2. Add rps_flow_is_active(): a helper function to check if a flow is
active or not, extracted from rps_may_expire_flow(). It is further
simplified as per reviewer feedback.
3. In set_rps_cpu():
- Avoid overwriting by programming a new filter if:
- The slot is not in use, or
- The slot is in use but the flow is not active, or
- The slot has an active flow with the same hash, but target CPU
differs.
- Save the hash in the rps_dev_flow entry.
4. rps_may_expire_flow(): Use earlier extracted rps_flow_is_active().
Testing & results:
- Driver: ice (E810 NIC), Kernel: net-next
- #CPUs = #RXq = 144 (1:1)
- Number of flows: 12K
- Eight RPS settings from 256 to 32768. Though RPS=256 is not ideal,
it is still sufficient to cover 12K flows (256*144 rx-queues = 64K
global table slots)
- Global Table Size = 144 * RPS (effectively equal to 256 * RPS)
- Each RPS test duration = 8 mins (org code) + 8 mins (new code).
- Metrics captured on client
Legend for following tables:
Steer-C: #times ndo_rx_flow_steer() was Called by set_rps_cpu()

Drivers which opt into instance lock protection of ops should
only call set_real_num_*_queues() under the instance lock.
This means that queue counts are double protected (writes
are under both rtnl_lock and instance lock, readers under
either).
Some readers may still be under the rtnl_lock, however, so for
now we need double protection of writers.
OTOH queue API paths are only under the protection of the instance
lock, so we need to validate that the instance is actually locking
ops, otherwise the input checks we do against queue count are racy.

RFS is using two kinds of hash tables.
First one is controlled by /proc/sys/net/core/rps_sock_flow_entries = 2^N
and using the N low order bits of the l4 hash is good enough.
Then each RX queue has its own hash table, controlled by
/sys/class/net/eth1/queues/rx-$q/rps_flow_cnt = 2^X
Current hash function, using the X low order bits is suboptimal,
because RSS is usually using Func(hash) = (hash % power_of_two);
For example, with 32 RX queues, 6 low order bits have no entropy
for a given queue.
Switch this hash function to hash_32(hash, log) to increase
chances to use all possible slots and reduce collisions.

Move the more esoteric helpers for netdev instance lock to
a dedicated header. This avoids growing netdevice.h to infinity
and makes rebuilding the kernel much faster (after touching
the header with the helpers).
The main netdev_lock() / netdev_unlock() functions are used
in static inlines in netdevice.h and will probably be used
most commonly, so keep them in netdevice.h.

modprobe dummy dumdummies=1
Old behavior :
$ cat /sys/class/net/dummy0/carrier
cat: /sys/class/net/dummy0/carrier: Invalid argument
After blamed commit, an empty string is reported.
$ cat /sys/class/net/dummy0/carrier
$
In this commit, I restore the old behavior for carrier,
speed and duplex attributes.

With the (upcoming) removal of the rtnl_trylock/restart_syscall logic
and because of how Tx/Rx queues are implemented (and their
requirements), it might happen that a queue is re-added before having
the chance to be cleared. In such rare case, do not complete the queue
addition operation.
