75756cb4b2 ethernet: 3c509: Update documentation to match MAINTAINERS
There has been apparently a single message only ever publicly posted by
David Ruggiero, back in 2002, which added this documentation piece among
others, and MAINTAINERS was never updated accordingly.  It is therefore
doubtful that his maintainer status has actually come into effect.  Just
replace the reference then so as not to confuse people.

28db0338db Revert "drivers: net: 3com: 3c509: Remove this driver"
This reverts commit 91f3a27ae9.

Contrary to the assumption stated with the original commit description
this driver is in use and I'm going to maintain it for the foreseeable
future.

a3fb9a5bf6 drivers: net: smsc: smc91c92: Remove this driver
The smc91c92 was written by David A Hinds in 1999. It is an PCMCIA
device, so unlikely to be used with modern kernels.

Remove the Documentation as well, since it refers to kernel versions
1.2.13 until 1.3.71 and FTP sites which no longer exist.

6deb535950 net: remove unused ATM protocols and legacy ATM device drivers
Remove the ATM protocol modules and PCI/SBUS ATM device drivers
that are no longer in active use.

The ATM core protocol stack, PPPoATM, BR2684, and USB DSL modem
drivers (drivers/usb/atm/) are retained in-tree to maintain PPP
over ATM (PPPoA) and PPPoE-over-BR2684 support for DSL connections.
The Solos ADSL2+ PCI driver is also retained.

Removed ATM protocol modules:
 - net/atm/clip.c - Classical IP over ATM (RFC 2225)
 - net/atm/lec.c - LAN Emulation Client (LANE)
 - net/atm/mpc.c, mpoa_caches.c, mpoa_proc.c - Multi-Protocol Over ATM

Removed PCI/SBUS ATM device drivers (drivers/atm/):
 - adummy, atmtcp - software/testing ATM devices
 - eni - Efficient Networks ENI155P (OC-3, ~1995)
 - fore200e - FORE Systems 200E PCI/SBUS (OC-3, ~1999)
 - he - ForeRunner HE (OC-3/OC-12, ~2000)
 - idt77105 - IDT 77105 25 Mbps ATM PHY
 - idt77252 - IDT 77252 NICStAR II (OC-3, ~2000)
 - iphase - Interphase ATM PCI (OC-3/DS3/E3)
 - lanai - Efficient Networks Speedstream 3010
 - nicstar - IDT 77201 NICStAR (155/25 Mbps, ~1999)
 - suni - PMC S/UNI SONET PHY library

Also clean up references in:
 - net/bridge/ - remove ATM LANE hook (br_fdb_test_addr_hook,
   br_fdb_test_addr)
 - net/core/dev.c - remove br_fdb_test_addr_hook export
 - defconfig files - remove ATM driver config options

The removed code is moved to an out-of-tree module package (mod-orphan).

dd8d4bc28a net: remove ax25 and amateur radio (hamradio) subsystem
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.

37a93dd5c4 Networking changes for 7.0
Core & protocols
 ----------------
 
  - A significant effort all around the stack to guide the compiler to
    make the right choice when inlining code, to avoid unneeded calls for
    small helper and stack canary overhead in the fast-path. This
    generates better and faster code with very small or no text size
    increases, as in many cases the call generated more code than the
    actual inlined helper.
 
  - Extend AccECN implementation so that is now functionally complete,
    also allow the user-space enabling it on a per network namespace
    basis.
 
  - Add support for memory providers with large (above 4K) rx buffer.
    Paired with hw-gro, larger rx buffer sizes reduce the number of
    buffers traversing the stack, dincreasing single stream CPU usage by
    up to ~30%.
 
  - Do not add HBH header to Big TCP GSO packets. This simplifies the RX
    path, the TX path and the NIC drivers, and is possible because
    user-space taps can now interpret correctly such packets without the
    HBH hint.
 
  - Allow IPv6 routes to be configured with a gateway address that is
    resolved out of a different interface than the one specified, aligning
    IPv6 to IPv4 behavior.
 
  - Multi-queue aware sch_cake. This makes it possible to scale the rate
    shaper of sch_cake across multiple CPUs, while still enforcing a
    single global rate on the interface.
 
  - Add support for the nbcon (new buffer console) infrastructure to
    netconsole, enabling lock-free, priority-based console operations that
    are safer in crash scenarios.
 
  - Improve the TCP ipv6 output path to cache the flow information, saving
    cpu cycles, reducing cache line misses and stack use.
 
  - Improve netfilter packet tracker to resolve clashes for most protocols,
    avoiding unneeded drops on rare occasions.
 
  - Add IP6IP6 tunneling acceleration to the flowtable infrastructure.
 
  - Reduce tcp socket size by one cache line.
 
  - Notify neighbour changes atomically, avoiding inconsistencies between
    the notification sequence and the actual states sequence.
 
  - Add vsock namespace support, allowing complete isolation of vsocks
    across different network namespaces.
 
  - Improve xsk generic performances with cache-alignment-oriented
    optimizations.
 
  - Support netconsole automatic target recovery, allowing netconsole
    to reestablish targets when underlying low-level interface comes back
    online.
 
 Driver API
 ----------
 
  - Support for switching the working mode (automatic vs manual) of a DPLL
    device via netlink.
 
  - Introduce PHY ports representation to expose multiple front-facing
    media ports over a single MAC.
 
  - Introduce "rx-polarity" and "tx-polarity" device tree properties, to
    generalize polarity inversion requirements for differential signaling.
 
  - Add helper to create, prepare and enable managed clocks.
 
 Device drivers
 --------------
 
  - Add Huawei hinic3 PF etherner driver.
 
  - Add DWMAC glue driver for Motorcomm YT6801 PCIe ethernet controller.
 
  - Add ethernet driver for MaxLinear MxL862xx switches
 
  - Remove parallel-port Ethernet driver.
 
  - Convert existing driver timestamp configuration reporting to
    hwtstamp_get and remove legacy ioctl().
 
  - Convert existing drivers to .get_rx_ring_count(), simplifing the RX
    ring count retrieval. Also remove the legacy fallback path.
 
  - Ethernet high-speed NICs:
    - Broadcom (bnxt, bng):
      - bnxt: add FW interface update to support FEC stats histogram and
        NVRAM defragmentation
      - bng: add TSO and H/W GRO support

      - add flow counters support for hardware steering (HWS) rules
      - use a static memory area to store headers for H/W GRO, leading to
        12% RX tput improvement
    - Intel (100G, ice, idpf):
      - ice: reorganizes layout of Tx and Rx rings for cacheline
        locality and utilizes __cacheline_group* macros on the new layouts
      - ice: introduces Synchronous Ethernet (SyncE) support
    - Meta (fbnic):
      - adds debugfs for firmware mailbox and tx/rx rings vectors
 
  - Ethernet virtual:
    - geneve: introduce GRO/GSO support for double UDP encapsulation

aba0138eb7 net: ethernet: neterion: s2io: remove unused driver
The s2io driver supports Exar (formerly Neterion and S2io) PCI-X 10
Gigabit Ethernet cards. Hardware supporting PCI-X has not been
manufactured in years. On x86, it was quickly replaced by PCIe. While
it stuck around longer on POWER hardware, the last POWER hardware to
support it was POWER7, which is not supported by ppc64le Linux
distributions. The last supported mainstream ppc64 Linux distribution
was RHEL 7; while it is still supported under ELS, ELS is only
available for x86 and IBM Z. It is possible to use many PCI-X cards in
standard PCI slots (which are still available on new motherboards), but
it does not make sense to do so for 10 Gigabit Ethernet because the
maximum bandwidth of standard PCI is only 1067 Mbps. It is therefore
highly unlikely that this driver is still being used. Remove the
driver, and move the former maintainer to the CREDITS file (restoring
credit for the vxge driver, which was removed in commit f05643a0f6
("eth: remove neterion/vxge").

a592a36e49 Documentation: use a source-read extension for the index link boilerplate
The root document usually has a special :ref:`genindex` link to the
generated index. This is also the case for Documentation/index.rst. The
other index.rst files deeper in the directory hierarchy usually don't.

For SPHINXDIRS builds, the root document isn't Documentation/index.rst,
but some other index.rst in the hierarchy. Currently they have a
".. only::" block to add the index link when doing SPHINXDIRS html
builds.

This is obviously very tedious and repetitive. The link is also added to
all index.rst files in the hierarchy for SPHINXDIRS builds, not just the
root document.

Put the boilerplate in a sphinx-includes/subproject-index.rst file, and
include it at the end of the root document for subproject builds in an
ad-hoc source-read extension defined in conf.py.

For now, keep having the boilerplate in translations, because this
approach currently doesn't cover translated index link headers.

8890ee6dcf net/mlx5e: Add device PCIe congestion ethtool stats
Implement the PCIe Congestion Event notifier which triggers a work item
to query the PCIe Congestion Event object. The result of the congestion
state is reflected in the new ethtool stats:

* pci_bw_inbound_high: the device has crossed the high threshold for
  inbound PCIe traffic.
* pci_bw_inbound_low: the device has crossed the low threshold for
  inbound PCIe traffic
* pci_bw_outbound_high: the device has crossed the high threshold for
  outbound PCIe traffic.
* pci_bw_outbound_low: the device has crossed the low threshold for
  outbound PCIe traffic

The high and low thresholds are currently configured at 90% and 75%.
These are hysteresis thresholds which help to check if the
PCI bus on the device side is in a congested state.

If low + 1 = high then the device is in a congested state. If low == high
then the device is not in a congested state.

The counters are also documented.

A follow-up patch will make the thresholds configurable.

With this patch hinic3 is a valid kernel module but non-functional
driver.

The driver parts contained in this patch:
Module initialization.
PCI driver registration but with empty id_table.
Auxiliary driver registration.
Net device_ops registration but open/stop are empty stubs.
tx/rx logic.

All major data structures of the driver are fully introduced with the
code that uses them but without their initialization code that requires
management interface with the hw.

stats.

The offset for different stats are defined as MACROs in icssg_switch_map.h
file. All the offsets are for Slice0. Slice1 offsets are slice0 + 4.
The offset calculation is taken care while reading the stats in
emac_update_hardware_stats().

The statistics are documented in
