The kci_test_encap_fou() test from kci_test_encap() in rtnetlink.sh
needs the fou module to work. Otherwise it will fail with:
$ ip netns exec "$testns" ip fou add port 7777 ipproto 47
RTNETLINK answers: No such file or directory
Error talking to the kernel
Add the CONFIG_NET_FOU into the config file as well. Which needs at

When 'rp_filter' is configured in strict mode (1) the tests fail because
packets received from the macvlan netdevs would not be forwarded through
them on the reverse path.
Fix this by disabling the 'rp_filter', meaning no source validation is
performed.

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
- Add redirect_neigh() BPF packet redirect helper, allowing to limit
stack traversal in common container configs and improving TCP
back-pressure.
Daniel reports ~10Gbps => ~15Gbps single stream TCP performance gain.
- Expand netlink policy support and improve policy export to user
space. (Ge)netlink core performs request validation according to
declared policies. Expand the expressiveness of those policies
(min/max length and bitmasks). Allow dumping policies for particular
commands. This is used for feature discovery by user space (instead
of kernel version parsing or trial and error).
- Support IGMPv3/MLDv2 multicast listener discovery protocols in
bridge.
- Allow more than 255 IPv4 multicast interfaces.
- Add support for Type of Service (ToS) reflection in SYN/SYN-ACK
packets of TCPv6.
- In Multi-patch TCP (MPTCP) support concurrent transmission of data on
multiple subflows in a load balancing scenario. Enhance advertising
addresses via the RM_ADDR/ADD_ADDR options.
- Support SMC-Dv2 version of SMC, which enables multi-subnet
deployments.
- Allow more calls to same peer in RxRPC.
- Support two new Controller Area Network (CAN) protocols - CAN-FD and
ISO 15765-2:2016.
- Add xfrm/IPsec compat layer, solving the 32bit user space on 64bit
kernel problem.
- Add TC actions for implementing MPLS L2 VPNs.
- Improve nexthop code - e.g. handle various corner cases when nexthop
objects are removed from groups better, skip unnecessary
notifications and make it easier to offload nexthops into HW by
converting to a blocking notifier.
- Support adding and consuming TCP header options by BPF programs,
opening the doors for easy experimental and deployment-specific TCP
option use.
- Reorganize TCP congestion control (CC) initialization to simplify
life of TCP CC implemented in BPF.
- Add support for shipping BPF programs with the kernel and loading
them early on boot via the User Mode Driver mechanism, hence reusing
all the user space infra we have.
- Support sleepable BPF programs, initially targeting LSM and tracing.
- Add bpf_d_path() helper for returning full path for given 'struct
path'.
- Make bpf_tail_call compatible with bpf-to-bpf calls.
- Allow BPF programs to call map_update_elem on sockmaps.
- Add BPF Type Format (BTF) support for type and enum discovery, as
well as support for using BTF within the kernel itself (current use
is for pretty printing structures).
- Support listing and getting information about bpf_links via the bpf
syscall.
- Enhance kernel interfaces around NIC firmware update. Allow
specifying overwrite mask to control if settings etc. are reset
during update; report expected max time operation may take to users;
support firmware activation without machine reboot incl. limits of
how much impact reset may have (e.g. dropping link or not).
- Extend ethtool configuration interface to report IEEE-standard
counters, to limit the need for per-vendor logic in user space.
- Adopt or extend devlink use for debug, monitoring, fw update in many
drivers (dsa loop, ice, ionic, sja1105, qed, mlxsw, mv88e6xxx,
dpaa2-eth).
- In mlxsw expose critical and emergency SFP module temperature alarms.
Refactor port buffer handling to make the defaults more suitable and
support setting these values explicitly via the DCBNL interface.
- Add XDP support for Intel's igb driver.
- Support offloading TC flower classification and filtering rules to
mscc_ocelot switches.
- Add PTP support for Marvell Octeontx2 and PP2.2 hardware, as well as
fixed interval period pulse generator and one-step timestamping in
dpaa-eth.
- Add support for various auth offloads in WiFi APs, e.g. SAE (WPA3)
offload.
- Add Lynx PHY/PCS MDIO module, and convert various drivers which have
this HW to use it. Convert mvpp2 to split PCS.
- Support Marvell Prestera 98DX3255 24-port switch ASICs, as well as
7-port Mediatek MT7531 IP.
- Add initial support for QCA6390 and IPQ6018 in ath11k WiFi driver,
and wcn3680 support in wcn36xx.
- Improve performance for packets which don't require much offloads on
recent Mellanox NICs by 20% by making multiple packets share a
descriptor entry.
- Move chelsio inline crypto drivers (for TLS and IPsec) from the
crypto subtree to drivers/net. Move MDIO drivers out of the phy
directory.
- Clean up a lot of W=1 warnings, reportedly the actively developed
subsections of networking drivers should now build W=1 warning free.
- Make sure drivers don't use in_interrupt() to dynamically adapt their
code. Convert tasklets to use new tasklet_setup API (sadly this
conversion is not yet complete).

The tcp_hdr_options test adds a "::eB9F" addr to the lo dev.
However, this non loopback address will have a race on ipv6 dad
which may lead to EADDRNOTAVAIL error from time to time.
Even nodad is used in the iproute2 command, there is still a race in
when the route will be added. This will then lead to ENETUNREACH from
time to time.
To avoid the above, this patch uses the default loopback address "::1"
to do the test.

The 64-bit JEQ/JNE handling in reg_set_min_max() was clearing reg->id in either
true or false branch. In the case 'if (reg->id)' check was done on the other
branch the counter part register would have reg->id == 0 when called into
find_equal_scalars(). In such case the helper would incorrectly identify other
registers with id == 0 as equivalent and propagate the state incorrectly.
Fix it by preserving ID across reg_set_min_max().
In other words any kind of comparison operator on the scalar register
should preserve its ID to recognize:
r1 = r2
if (r1 == 20) {
#1 here both r1 and r2 == 20
} else if (r2 < 20) {
#2 here both r1 and r2 < 20
}
The patch is addressing #1 case. The #2 was working correctly already.

The objective of the tests is to check that ICMP errors generated while
crossing between VRFs are properly routed back to the source host.
The first ttl test sends a ping with a ttl of 1 from h1 to h2 and parses the
output of the command to check that a ttl expired error is received.
The second ttl test runs traceroute from h1 to h2 and parses the output to
check for a hop on r1.
The mtu test sends a ping with a payload of 1450 from h1 to h2, through
r1 which has an interface with a mtu of 1400 and parses the output of the
command to check that a fragmentation needed error is received.
[ The IPv6 MTU test still fails with the symmetric routing setup. It
appears to be caused by source address selection picking ::1. Fixing
this is beyond the scope of this series. ]

Pull pidfd updates from Christian Brauner:
"This introduces a new extension to the pidfd_open() syscall. Users can
now raise the new PIDFD_NONBLOCK flag to support non-blocking pidfd
file descriptors. This has been requested for uses in async process
management libraries such as async-pidfd in Rust.
Ever since the introduction of pidfds and more advanced async io
various programming languages such as Rust have grown support for
async event libraries. These libraries are created to help build
epoll-based event loops around file descriptors. A common pattern is
to automatically make all file descriptors they manage to O_NONBLOCK.
For such libraries the EAGAIN error code is treated specially. When a
function is called that returns EAGAIN the function isn't called again
until the event loop indicates the the file descriptor is ready.
Supporting EAGAIN when waiting on pidfds makes such libraries just
work with little effort.
This introduces a new flag PIDFD_NONBLOCK that is equivalent to
O_NONBLOCK. This follows the same patterns we have for other (anon
inode) file descriptors such as EFD_NONBLOCK, IN_NONBLOCK,
SFD_NONBLOCK, TFD_NONBLOCK and the same for close-on-exec flags.
Passing a non-blocking pidfd to waitid() currently has no effect, i.e.
is not supported. There are users which would like to use waitid() on
pidfds that are O_NONBLOCK and mix it with pidfds that are blocking
and both pass them to waitid().
The expected behavior is to have waitid() return -EAGAIN for
non-blocking pidfds and to block for blocking pidfds without needing
to perform any additional checks for flags set on the pidfd before
passing it to waitid(). Non-blocking pidfds will return EAGAIN from
waitid() when no child process is ready yet. Returning -EAGAIN for
non-blocking pidfds makes it easier for event loops that handle EAGAIN
specially.
It also makes the API more consistent and uniform. In essence,
waitid() is treated like a read on a non-blocking pidfd or a recvmsg()
on a non-blocking socket.
With the addition of support for non-blocking pidfds we support the
same functionality that sockets do. For sockets() recvmsg() supports
MSG_DONTWAIT for pidfds waitid() supports WNOHANG. Both flags are
per-call options. In contrast non-blocking pidfds and non-blocking
sockets are a setting on an open file description affecting all
threads in the calling process as well as other processes that hold
file descriptors referring to the same open file description. Both
behaviors, per call and per open file description, have genuine
use-cases.
The interaction with the WNOHANG flag is documented as follows:
- If a non-blocking pidfd is passed and WNOHANG is not raised we
simply raise the WNOHANG flag internally. When do_wait() returns
indicating that there are eligible child processes but none have
exited yet we set EAGAIN. If no child process exists we continue
returning ECHILD.
- If a non-blocking pidfd is passed and WNOHANG is raised waitid()
will continue returning 0, i.e. it will not set EAGAIN. This ensure
backwards compatibility with applications passing WNOHANG
explicitly with pidfds"

Pull kernel_clone() updates from Christian Brauner:
"During the v5.9 merge window we reworked the process creation
codepaths across multiple architectures. After this work we were only
left with the _do_fork() helper based on the struct kernel_clone_args
calling convention. As was pointed out _do_fork() isn't valid
kernelese especially for a helper that isn't just static.
This series removes the _do_fork() helper and introduces the new
kernel_clone() helper. The process creation cleanup didn't change the
name to something more reasonable mainly because _do_fork() was used
in quite a few places. So sending this as a separate series seemed the
better strategy.
I originally intended to send this early in the v5.9 development cycle

This patch reduces the running time for compaction_test from about 27 sec,
to 3.3 sec, which is about an 8x speedup.
These numbers are for an Intel x86_64 system with 32 GB of DRAM.
The compaction_test.c program was spending most of its time doing mmap(),
1 MB at a time, on about 25 GB of memory.
Instead, do the mmaps 100 MB at a time. (Going past 100 MB doesn't make
things go much faster, because other parts of the program are using the
remaining time.)

Avoid accidental wrong builds, due to built-in rules working just a little
bit too well--but not quite as well as required for our situation here.
In other words, "make userfaultfd" (for example) is supposed to fail to
build at all, because this Makefile only supports either "make" (all), or
"make /full/path". However, the built-in rules, if not suppressed, will
pick up CFLAGS and the initial LDLIBS (but not the target-specific LDLIBS,
because those are only set for the full path target!). This causes it to
get pretty far into building things despite using incorrect values such as
an *occasionally* incomplete LDLIBS value.

Patch series "selftests/vm: fix some minor aggravating factors in the Makefile".
This fixes a couple of minor aggravating factors that I ran across while
trying to do some changes in selftests/vm. These are simple things, but
like most things with GNU Make, it's rarely obvious what's wrong until you
understand *the entire Makefile and all of its includes*.
So while there is, of course, joy in learning those details, I thought I'd
fix these little things, so as to allow others to skip out on the Joy if
they so choose. :)
First of all, if you have an item (let's choose userfaultfd for an
example) that fails to build, you might do this:
$ make -j32
# ...you observe a failed item in the threaded output
# OK, let's get a closer look
$ make
# ...but now the build quietly "succeeds".
That's what Patch 0001 fixes.
Second, if you instead attempt this approach for your closer look (a casual
mistake, as it's not supported):
$ make userfaultfd
# ...userfaultfd fails to link, due to incomplete LDLIBS
That's what Patch 0002 fixes.
This patch (of 2):
If one or more of these selftest fail to build, then after the first
failure, subsequent invocations of "make" will make it appear that there
are no build failures, after all.
That's because the failed build products remain, with up-to-date
timestamps, thus tricking Make (and you!) into believing that there's
nothing else to build.
Fix this by telling Make to delete targets that didn't completely
succeed.
