68993ced0f Including fixes from Bluetooth, wireless and netfilter.
Current release - fix to a fix:
 
  - Bluetooth: btmtk: accept too short WMT FUNC_CTRL events
 
  - vsock/virtio: relax the recently added memory limit a little
 
 Current release - regressions:
 
  - IB/IPoIB: make sure IB drivers always use async set_rx_mode since
    some (mlx5) are now required to use it due to locking changes
 
 Previous releases - regressions:
 
  - udp: fix UDP length on last GSO_PARTIAL segment
 
  - af_unix: fix UAF read of tail->len in unix_stream_data_wait()
 
  - tcp: fix stale per-CPU tcp_tw_isn leak enabling ISN prediction
 
  - mlx5e: fix unlocked writing to ICOSQ, breaking AF_XDP
 
 Previous releases - always broken:
 
  - tap: fix stack info leak in tap_ioctl() SIOCGIFHWADDR
 
  - ipv4: raw: reject IP_HDRINCL packets with ihl < 5
 
  - Bluetooth: a lot of locking and concurrency fixes (as always)
 
  - batman-adv (mesh wireless networking): a lot of random fixes
    for issues reported by security researchers and Sashiko
 
  - netfilter: same thing, a lot of small security-ish fixes
    all over the place, nothing really stands out
 
 Misc:
 
  - bring back the old 3c509 driver, Maciej wants to maintain it

 "Including fixes from Bluetooth, wireless and netfilter.

  Craziness continues with no end in sight. Even discounting the driver
  revert this is a pretty huge PR for standards of the previous era. I'd
  speculate - we haven't seen the worst of it, yet. Good news, I guess,
  is that so far we haven't seen many (any?) cases of "AI reported a
  bug, we fixed it and a real user regressed".

64edfa6506 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.

aec3202247 net: packetengines: remove obsolete yellowfin driver and vendor dir
Similar to the hamachi driver, the yellowfin driver supports hardware
that is over two decades old and no longer in active use.

Since yellowfin was the last remaining driver in the packetengines
vendor directory, we can now safely remove the entire directory and
drop its associated references from the parent Kconfig and Makefile.

This eliminates dead code and reduces the overall maintenance burden
on the netdev subsystem.

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).

8c6d03b7a2 crypto: Remove michael_mic from crypto_shash API
Remove the "michael_mic" crypto_shash algorithm, since it's no longer
used.  Its only users were wireless drivers, which have now been
converted to use the michael_mic() function instead.

It makes sense that no other users ever appeared: Michael MIC is an
insecure algorithm that is specific to WPA TKIP, which itself was an
interim security solution to replace the broken WEP standard.

b3c26ea81c pcmcia: remove obsolete host controller drivers
PCMCIA is almost completely obsolete (the last computers supporting it
natively were from ~2009), and the general consensus [1] seems to be
that support for it should be gradually removed from the kernel.

In 2023, an initial step of removing all the PCMCIA char drivers was
taken in commit 9b12f050c7 ("char: pcmcia: remove all the drivers"),
and that has not been reverted, so it seems logical to continue this
process by removing more low-hanging fruit.

These host controller drivers have had no meaningful changes since
their status was discussed in 2022 [2], and are unlikely to have any
remaining users. Remove them and a couple references to them
in comments.

The i82365 and tcic drivers are for ISA-attached host controllers,
which are even less likely to be used nowadays than ones on other buses.

The i82092 driver has almost certainly not been used in over 20 years.
It was broken by a null pointer dereference since the dawn of Git
history (2.6.12-rc2 in 2005) until someone fixed it in 2021 in commit
e39cdacf2f ("pcmcia: i82092: fix a null pointer dereference bug").
From their dmesg log [3], it is clear they were testing in an emulated
environment and not on real hardware.

i82365.h is used by drivers other than i82365 and is therefore retained.

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").

d30aca3eef lib/tests: convert test_min_heap module to KUnit
Move lib/test_min_heap.c to lib/tests/min_heap_kunit.c and convert it to
use KUnit.

This change switches the ad-hoc test code to standard KUnit test cases. 
The test data remains the same, but the verification logic is updated to
use KUNIT_EXPECT_* macros.

Also remove CONFIG_TEST_MIN_HEAP from arch/*/configs/* because it is no
longer used.  The new CONFIG_MIN_HEAP_KUNIT_TEST will be automatically
enabled by CONFIG_KUNIT_ALL_TESTS.

The reasons for converting to KUnit are:

1. Standardization:
    Switching from ad-hoc printk-based reporting to the standard
    KTAP format makes it easier for CI systems to parse and report test
    results

2. Better Diagnostics:
    Using KUNIT_EXPECT_* macros automatically provides detailed
    diagnostics on failure.

3. Tooling Integration:
    It allows the test to be managed and executed using standard
    KUnit tools.

e700f5d156 watchdog: softlockup: panic when lockup duration exceeds N thresholds
The softlockup_panic sysctl is currently a binary option: panic
immediately or never panic on soft lockups.

Panicking on any soft lockup, regardless of duration, can be overly
aggressive for brief stalls that may be caused by legitimate operations. 
Conversely, never panicking may allow severe system hangs to persist
undetected.

Extend softlockup_panic to accept an integer threshold, allowing the
kernel to panic only when the normalized lockup duration exceeds N
watchdog threshold periods.  This provides finer-grained control to
distinguish between transient delays and persistent system failures.

The accepted values are:
- 0: Don't panic (unchanged)
- 1: Panic when duration >= 1 * threshold (20s default, original behavior)
- N > 1: Panic when duration >= N * threshold (e.g., 2 = 40s, 3 = 60s.)

The original behavior is preserved for values 0 and 1, maintaining full
backward compatibility while allowing systems to tolerate brief lockups
while still catching severe, persistent hangs.

37d55c92e9 serial: drop SERIAL_8250_DEPRECATED_OPTIONS
In 3.7, 8250 was unintentionally renamed to 8250_core. This happened in
the commit 835d844d1a (8250_pnp: do pnp probe before legacy probe).
This made 8250.<xxxx> module options effectively defunct. Instead,
8250_core.<xxxx> worked.

In 3.9, the commit f2b8dfd9e4 (serial: 8250: Keep 8250.<xxxx> module
options functional after driver rename) made the original options work
again by introducing a hack.

Later in 3.9, the commit 9196d8acd7 (TTY: 8250, revert module name
change) changed the module name back to 8250 (from 8250_core). Since
then, the hack was there to support the transient 8250_core.<xxxx>
options. Those were present only in the 3.7..3.9 range.

These transient options were deprecated by 9326b047e4 (TTY: 8250,
deprecated 8250_core.* options) in v3.9 too.

Now, after those 12 years, it is time to get rid of this hack
completely.

d8768fb12a Crypto library updates for 6.18
- Add a RISC-V optimized implementation of Poly1305. This code was
   written by Andy Polyakov and contributed by Zhihang Shao.
 
 - Migrate the MD5 code into lib/crypto/, and add KUnit tests for MD5.
   Yes, it's still the 90s, and several kernel subsystems are still using
   MD5 for legacy use cases. As long as that remains the case, it's
   helpful to clean it up in the same way as I've been doing for other
   algorithms. Later, I plan to convert most of these users of MD5 to use
   the new MD5 library API instead of the generic crypto API.
 
 - Simplify the organization of the ChaCha, Poly1305, BLAKE2s, and
   Curve25519 code. Consolidate these into one module per algorithm,
   and centralize the configuration and build process. This is the same
   reorganization that has already been successful for SHA-1 and SHA-2.
 
 - Remove the unused crypto_kpp API for Curve25519.
 
 - Migrate the BLAKE2s and Curve25519 self-tests to KUnit.
 
 - Always enable the architecture-optimized BLAKE2s code.
 
 Due to interdependencies between test and non-test code, both are
 included in this pull request. The broken-down diffstat is as follows:
 
     Tests:            735 insertions(+), 1917 deletions(-)
     RISC-V Poly1305:  877 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-)
     Other:           1777 insertions(+), 3117 deletions(-)
 
 Besides the new RISC-V code which is an addition, there are quite a
 few simplifications due to the improved code organization for multiple
 algorithms, the removal of the unused crypto_kpp API for Curve25519
 and redundant tests, and the redesign of the BLAKE2s test.

8b3332c133 Revert "eth: remove the DLink/Sundance (ST201) driver"
This reverts commit 8401a108a6.

I got a report from an (anonymous) Sundance user:

  Ethernet controller: Sundance Technology Inc / IC Plus Corp IC Plus IP100A Integrated 10/100 Ethernet MAC + PHY (rev 31)

Revert the driver back in. Make following changes:
 - update Denis's email address in MAINTAINERS
 - adjust to timer API renames:
   - del_timer_sync() -> timer_delete_sync()
   - from_timer() -> timer_container_of()

Fixes: 8401a108a6 ("eth: remove the DLink/Sundance (ST201) driver")

09371e1349 lib/crypto: powerpc/md5: Migrate optimized code into library
Instead of exposing the powerpc-optimized MD5 code via powerpc-specific
crypto_shash algorithms, instead just implement the md5_blocks() library
function.  This is much simpler, it makes the MD5 library functions be
powerpc-optimized, and it fixes the longstanding issue where the
powerpc-optimized MD5 code was disabled by default.  MD5 still remains
available through crypto_shash, but individual architectures no longer
need to handle it.

8be4d31cb8 Networking changes for 6.17.
Core & protocols
 ----------------
 
  - Wrap datapath globals into net_aligned_data, to avoid false sharing.
 
  - Preserve MSG_ZEROCOPY in forwarding (e.g. out of a container).
 
  - Add SO_INQ and SCM_INQ support to AF_UNIX.
 
  - Add SIOCINQ support to AF_VSOCK.
 
  - Add TCP_MAXSEG sockopt to MPTCP.
 
  - Add IPv6 force_forwarding sysctl to enable forwarding per interface.
 
  - Make TCP validation of whether packet fully fits in the receive
    window and the rcv_buf more strict. With increased use of HW
    aggregation a single "packet" can be multiple 100s of kB.
 
  - Add MSG_MORE flag to optimize large TCP transmissions via sockmap,
    improves latency up to 33% for sockmap users.
 
  - Convert TCP send queue handling from tasklet to BH workque.
 
  - Improve BPF iteration over TCP sockets to see each socket exactly once.
 
  - Remove obsolete and unused TCP RFC3517/RFC6675 loss recovery code.
 
  - Support enabling kernel threads for NAPI processing on per-NAPI
    instance basis rather than a whole device. Fully stop the kernel NAPI
    thread when threaded NAPI gets disabled. Previously thread would stick
    around until ifdown due to tricky synchronization.
 
  - Allow multicast routing to take effect on locally-generated packets.
 
  - Add output interface argument for End.X in segment routing.
 
  - MCTP: add support for gateway routing, improve bind() handling.
 
  - Don't require rtnl_lock when fetching an IPv6 neighbor over Netlink.
 
  - Add a new neighbor flag ("extern_valid"), which cedes refresh
    responsibilities to userspace. This is needed for EVPN multi-homing
    where a neighbor entry for a multi-homed host needs to be synced
    across all the VTEPs among which the host is multi-homed.
 
  - Support NUD_PERMANENT for proxy neighbor entries.
 
  - Add a new queuing discipline for IETF RFC9332 DualQ Coupled AQM.
 
  - Add sequence numbers to netconsole messages. Unregister netconsole's
    console when all net targets are removed. Code refactoring.
    Add a number of selftests.
 
  - Align IPSec inbound SA lookup to RFC 4301. Only SPI and protocol
    should be used for an inbound SA lookup.
 
  - Support inspecting ref_tracker state via DebugFS.
 
  - Don't force bonding advertisement frames tx to ~333 ms boundaries.
    Add broadcast_neighbor option to send ARP/ND on all bonded links.
 
  - Allow providing upcall pid for the 'execute' command in openvswitch.
 
  - Remove DCCP support from Netfilter's conntrack.
 
  - Disallow multiple packet duplications in the queuing layer.
 
  - Prevent use of deprecated iptables code on PREEMPT_RT.
 
 Driver API
 ----------
 
  - Support RSS and hashing configuration over ethtool Netlink.
 
  - Add dedicated ethtool callbacks for getting and setting hashing fields.
 
  - Add support for power budget evaluation strategy in PSE /

6b9ae8cfaa lib/crypto: powerpc/sha1: Migrate optimized code into library
Instead of exposing the powerpc-optimized SHA-1 code via
powerpc-specific crypto_shash algorithms, instead just implement the
sha1_blocks() library function.  This is much simpler, it makes the
SHA-1 library functions be powerpc-optimized, and it fixes the
longstanding issue where the powerpc-optimized SHA-1 code was disabled
by default.  SHA-1 still remains available through crypto_shash, but
individual architectures no longer need to handle it.

Note: to see the diff from arch/powerpc/crypto/sha1-spe-glue.c to
lib/crypto/powerpc/sha1.h, view this commit with 'git show -M10'.

fd72f265bb netfilter: conntrack: remove DCCP protocol support
The DCCP socket family has now been removed from this tree, see:

  8bb3212be4 ("Merge branch 'net-retire-dccp-socket'")

Remove connection tracking and NAT support for this protocol, this
should not pose a problem because no DCCP traffic is expected to be seen
on the wire.

As for the code for matching on dccp header for iptables and nftables,
mark it as deprecated and keep it in place. Ruleset restoration is an
atomic operation. Without dccp matching support, an astray match on dccp
could break this operation leaving your computer with no policy in
place, so let's follow a more conservative approach for matches.

Add CONFIG_NFT_EXTHDR_DCCP which is set to 'n' by default to deprecate
dccp extension support. Similarly, label CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_DCCP
as deprecated too and also set it to 'n' by default.

Code to match on DCCP protocol from ebtables also remains in place, this
is just a few checks on IPPROTO_DCCP from _check() path which is
exercised when ruleset is loaded. There is another use of IPPROTO_DCCP
from the _check() path in the iptables multiport match. Another check
for IPPROTO_DCCP from the packet in the reject target is also removed.

So let's schedule removal of the dccp matching for a second stage, this
should not interfer with the dccp retirement since this is only matching
on the dccp header.

a206d23340 powerpc/defconfigs: Set HZ=1000 on ppc64 and powernv defconfigs
Commit 030bdc3fd0 ("powerpc/defconfigs: Set HZ=100 on pseries and ppc64
defconfigs") lowered CONFIG_HZ from 250 to 100, citing reduced need for a
higher tick rate due to high-resolution timers and concerns about timer
interrupt overhead and cascading effects in the timer wheel.

However, improvements have been made to the timer wheel algorithm since
then, particularly in eliminating cascading effects at the cost of minor
timekeeping inaccuracies. More details are available here
https://lwn.net/Articles/646950/. This removes the original concern about
cascading, and the reliance on high-resolution timers is not applicable
to the scheduler, which still depends on periodic ticks set by CONFIG_HZ.

With the introduction of the EEVDF scheduler, users can specify custom
slices for workloads. The default base_slice is 3ms, but with CONFIG_HZ=100
(10ms tick interval), base_slice is ineffective. Workloads like stress-ng
that do not voluntarily yield the CPU run for ~10ms before switching out.
Additionally, setting a custom slice below 3ms (e.g., 2ms) should lower
task latency, but this effect is lost due to the coarse 10ms tick.

By increasing CONFIG_HZ to 1000 (1ms tick), base_slice is properly honored,
and user-defined slices work as expected. Benchmark results support this
change:

Latency improvements in schbench with EEVDF under stress-ng-induced noise:

Scheduler       CONFIG_HZ  Custom Slice  99th Percentile Latency (µs)
--------------------------------------------------------------------
EEVDF           1000       No            0.30x
EEVDF           1000       2 ms          0.29x
EEVDF (default) 100        No            1.00x

Switching to HZ=1000 reduces the 99th percentile latency in schbench by
~70%. This improvement occurs because, with HZ=1000, stress-ng tasks run
for ~3ms before yielding, compared to ~10ms with HZ=100. As a result,
schbench gets CPU time sooner, reducing its latency.

Daytrader Performance:

Daytrader results show minor variation within standard deviation,
indicating no significant regression.

Workload (Users/Instances)  Throughput 1000HZ vs 100HZ (Std Dev%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
30 u, 1 i                   +3.01% (1.62%)
60 u, 1 i                   +1.46% (2.69%)
90 u, 1 i                   –1.33% (3.09%)
30 u, 2 i                   -1.20% (1.71%)
30 u, 3 i                   –0.07% (1.33%)

Avg. Response Time: No Change (=)

pgbench select queries:

Metric                         1000HZ vs 100HZ (Std Dev%)
------------------------------------------------------------------
Average TPS Change             +2.16% (1.27%)
Average Latency Change         –2.21% (1.21%)

Average TPS: Higher the better
Average Latency: Lower the better

pgbench shows both throughput and latency improvements beyond standard
deviation.

Given these results and the improvements in timer wheel implementation,
increasing CONFIG_HZ to 1000 ensures that powerpc benefits from EEVDF’s
base_slice and allows fine-tuned scheduling for latency-sensitive
workloads.

Linus Torvalds
1b98f357da Networking changes for 6.16.
Core
 ----
 
  - Implement the Device Memory TCP transmit path, allowing zero-copy
    data transmission on top of TCP from e.g. GPU memory to the wire.
 
  - Move all the IPv6 routing tables management outside the RTNL scope,
    under its own lock and RCU. The route control path is now 3x times
    faster.
 
  - Convert queue related netlink ops to instance lock, reducing
    again the scope of the RTNL lock. This improves the control plane
    scalability.
 
  - Refactor the software crc32c implementation, removing unneeded
    abstraction layers and improving significantly the related
    micro-benchmarks.
 
  - Optimize the GRO engine for UDP-tunneled traffic, for a 10%
    performance improvement in related stream tests.
 
  - Cover more per-CPU storage with local nested BH locking; this is a
    prep work to remove the current per-CPU lock in local_bh_disable()
    on PREMPT_RT.
 
  - Introduce and use nlmsg_payload helper, combining buffer bounds
    verification with accessing payload carried by netlink messages.
 
 Netfilter
 ---------
 
  - Rewrite the procfs conntrack table implementation, improving
    considerably the dump performance. A lot of user-space tools
    still use this interface.
 
  - Implement support for wildcard netdevice in netdev basechain
    and flowtables.
 
  - Integrate conntrack information into nft trace infrastructure.
 
  - Export set count and backend name to userspace, for better
    introspection.
 
 BPF
 ---
 
  - BPF qdisc support: BPF-qdisc can be implemented with BPF struct_ops
    programs and can be controlled in similar way to traditional qdiscs
    using the "tc qdisc" command.
 
  - Refactor the UDP socket iterator, addressing long standing issues
    WRT duplicate hits or missed sockets.
 
 Protocols
 ---------
 
  - Improve TCP receive buffer auto-tuning and increase the default
    upper bound for the receive buffer; overall this improves the single
    flow maximum thoughput on 200Gbs link by over 60%.
 
  - Add AFS GSSAPI security class to AF_RXRPC; it provides transport
    security for connections to the AFS fileserver and VL server.
 
  - Improve TCP multipath routing, so that the sources address always
    matches the nexthop device.
 
  - Introduce SO_PASSRIGHTS for AF_UNIX, to allow disabling SCM_RIGHTS,
    and thus preventing DoS caused by passing around problematic FDs.
 
  - Retire DCCP socket. DCCP only receives updates for bugs, and major
    distros disable it by default. Its removal allows for better
    organisation of TCP fields to reduce the number of cache lines hit
    in the fast path.
 
  - Extend TCP drop-reason support to cover PAWS checks.
 
 Driver API
 ----------
 
  - Reorganize PTP ioctl flag support to require an explicit opt-in for
    the drivers, avoiding the problem of drivers not rejecting new
    unsupported flags.
 
  - Converted several device drivers to timestamping APIs.
 
  - Introduce per-PHY ethtool dump helpers, improving the support for
    dump operations targeting PHYs.
 
 Tests and tooling
 -----------------
 
  - Add support for classic netlink in user space C codegen, so that
    ynl-c can now read, create and modify links, routes addresses and
    qdisc layer configuration.
 
  - Add ynl sub-types for binary attributes, allowing ynl-c to output
    known struct instead of raw binary data, clarifying the classic
    netlink output.
 
  - Extend MPTCP selftests to improve the code-coverage.
 
  - Add tests for XDP tail adjustment in AF_XDP.
 
 New hardware / drivers
 ----------------------
 
  - OpenVPN virtual driver: offload OpenVPN data channels processing
    to the kernel-space, increasing the data transfer throughput WRT
    the user-space implementation.
 
  - Renesas glue driver for the gigabit ethernet RZ/V2H(P) SoC.
 
  - Broadcom asp-v3.0 ethernet driver.
 
  - AMD Renoir ethernet device.
 
  - ReakTek MT9888 2.5G ethernet PHY driver.

Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
 "Core:

   - Implement the Device Memory TCP transmit path, allowing zero-copy
     data transmission on top of TCP from e.g. GPU memory to the wire.

   - Move all the IPv6 routing tables management outside the RTNL scope,
     under its own lock and RCU. The route control path is now 3x times
     faster.

   - Convert queue related netlink ops to instance lock, reducing again
     the scope of the RTNL lock. This improves the control plane
     scalability.

   - Refactor the software crc32c implementation, removing unneeded
     abstraction layers and improving significantly the related
     micro-benchmarks.

   - Optimize the GRO engine for UDP-tunneled traffic, for a 10%
     performance improvement in related stream tests.

   - Cover more per-CPU storage with local nested BH locking; this is a
     prep work to remove the current per-CPU lock in local_bh_disable()
     on PREMPT_RT.

   - Introduce and use nlmsg_payload helper, combining buffer bounds
     verification with accessing payload carried by netlink messages.

  Netfilter:

   - Rewrite the procfs conntrack table implementation, improving
     considerably the dump performance. A lot of user-space tools still
     use this interface.

   - Implement support for wildcard netdevice in netdev basechain and
     flowtables.

   - Integrate conntrack information into nft trace infrastructure.

   - Export set count and backend name to userspace, for better
     introspection.

  BPF:

   - BPF qdisc support: BPF-qdisc can be implemented with BPF struct_ops
     programs and can be controlled in similar way to traditional qdiscs
     using the "tc qdisc" command.

   - Refactor the UDP socket iterator, addressing long standing issues
     WRT duplicate hits or missed sockets.

  Protocols:

   - Improve TCP receive buffer auto-tuning and increase the default
     upper bound for the receive buffer; overall this improves the
     single flow maximum thoughput on 200Gbs link by over 60%.

   - Add AFS GSSAPI security class to AF_RXRPC; it provides transport
     security for connections to the AFS fileserver and VL server.

   - Improve TCP multipath routing, so that the sources address always
     matches the nexthop device.

   - Introduce SO_PASSRIGHTS for AF_UNIX, to allow disabling SCM_RIGHTS,
     and thus preventing DoS caused by passing around problematic FDs.

   - Retire DCCP socket. DCCP only receives updates for bugs, and major
     distros disable it by default. Its removal allows for better
     organisation of TCP fields to reduce the number of cache lines hit
     in the fast path.

   - Extend TCP drop-reason support to cover PAWS checks.

  Driver API:

   - Reorganize PTP ioctl flag support to require an explicit opt-in for
     the drivers, avoiding the problem of drivers not rejecting new
     unsupported flags.

   - Converted several device drivers to timestamping APIs.

   - Introduce per-PHY ethtool dump helpers, improving the support for
     dump operations targeting PHYs.

  Tests and tooling:

   - Add support for classic netlink in user space C codegen, so that
     ynl-c can now read, create and modify links, routes addresses and
     qdisc layer configuration.

   - Add ynl sub-types for binary attributes, allowing ynl-c to output
     known struct instead of raw binary data, clarifying the classic
     netlink output.

   - Extend MPTCP selftests to improve the code-coverage.

   - Add tests for XDP tail adjustment in AF_XDP.

  New hardware / drivers:

   - OpenVPN virtual driver: offload OpenVPN data channels processing to
     the kernel-space, increasing the data transfer throughput WRT the
     user-space implementation.

   - Renesas glue driver for the gigabit ethernet RZ/V2H(P) SoC.

   - Broadcom asp-v3.0 ethernet driver.

2a63dd0edf net: Retire DCCP socket.
DCCP was orphaned in 2021 by commit 054c4610bd ("MAINTAINERS: dccp:
move Gerrit Renker to CREDITS"), which noted that the last maintainer
had been inactive for five years.

In recent years, it has become a playground for syzbot, and most changes
to DCCP have been odd bug fixes triggered by syzbot.  Apart from that,
the only changes have been driven by treewide or networking API updates
or adjustments related to TCP.

Thus, in 2023, we announced we would remove DCCP in 2025 via commit
b144fcaf46 ("dccp: Print deprecation notice.").

Since then, only one individual has contacted the netdev mailing list. [0]

There is ongoing research for Multipath DCCP.  The repository is hosted
on GitHub [1], and development is not taking place through the upstream
community.  While the repository is published under the GPLv2 license,
the scheduling part remains proprietary, with a LICENSE file [2] stating:

  "This is not Open Source software."

The researcher mentioned a plan to address the licensing issue, upstream
the patches, and step up as a maintainer, but there has been no further
communication since then.

Maintaining DCCP for a decade without any real users has become a burden.

Therefore, it's time to remove it.

Removing DCCP will also provide significant benefits to TCP.  It allows
us to freely reorganize the layout of struct inet_connection_sock, which
is currently shared with DCCP, and optimize it to reduce the number of
cachelines accessed in the TCP fast path.

Note that we keep DCCP netfilter modules as requested.  [3]

eb0ece1602 - The 6 patch series "Enable strict percpu address space checks" from
Uros Bizjak uses x86 named address space qualifiers to provide
   compile-time checking of percpu area accesses.
 
   This has caused a small amount of fallout - two or three issues were
   reported.  In all cases the calling code was founf to be incorrect.
 
 - The 4 patch series "Some cleanup for memcg" from Chen Ridong
   implements some relatively monir cleanups for the memcontrol code.
 
 - The 17 patch series "mm: fixes for device-exclusive entries (hmm)"
   from David Hildenbrand fixes a boatload of issues which David found then
   using device-exclusive PTE entries when THP is enabled.  More work is
   needed, but this makes thins better - our own HMM selftests now succeed.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm: zswap: remove z3fold and zbud" from Yosry
   Ahmed remove the z3fold and zbud implementations.  They have been
   deprecated for half a year and nobody has complained.
 
 - The 5 patch series "mm: further simplify VMA merge operation" from
   Lorenzo Stoakes implements numerous simplifications in this area.  No
   runtime effects are anticipated.
 
 - The 4 patch series "mm/madvise: remove redundant mmap_lock operations
   from process_madvise()" from SeongJae Park rationalizes the locking in
   the madvise() implementation.  Performance gains of 20-25% were observed
   in one MADV_DONTNEED microbenchmark.
 
 - The 12 patch series "Tiny cleanup and improvements about SWAP code"
   from Baoquan He contains a number of touchups to issues which Baoquan
   noticed when working on the swap code.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm: kmemleak: Usability improvements" from Catalin
   Marinas implements a couple of improvements to the kmemleak user-visible
   output.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/damon/paddr: fix large folios access and
   schemes handling" from Usama Arif provides a couple of fixes for DAMON's
   handling of large folios.
 
 - The 3 patch series "mm/damon/core: fix wrong and/or useless
   damos_walk() behaviors" from SeongJae Park fixes a few issues with the
   accuracy of kdamond's walking of DAMON regions.
 
 - The 3 patch series "expose mapping wrprotect, fix fb_defio use" from
   Lorenzo Stoakes changes the interaction between framebuffer deferred-io
   and core MM.  No functional changes are anticipated - this is
   preparatory work for the future removal of page structure fields.
 
 - The 4 patch series "mm/damon: add support for hugepage_size DAMOS
   filter" from Usama Arif adds a DAMOS filter which permits the filtering
   by huge page sizes.
 
 - The 4 patch series "mm: permit guard regions for file-backed/shmem
   mappings" from Lorenzo Stoakes extends the guard region feature from its
   present "anon mappings only" state.  The feature now covers shmem and
   file-backed mappings.
 
 - The 4 patch series "mm: batched unmap lazyfree large folios during
   reclamation" from Barry Song cleans up and speeds up the unmapping for
   pte-mapped large folios.
 
 - The 18 patch series "reimplement per-vma lock as a refcount" from
   Suren Baghdasaryan puts the vm_lock back into the vma.  Our reasons for
   pulling it out were largely bogus and that change made the code more
   messy.  This patchset provides small (0-10%) improvements on one
   microbenchmark.
 
 - The 5 patch series "Docs/mm/damon: misc DAMOS filters documentation
   fixes and improves" from SeongJae Park does some maintenance work on the
   DAMON docs.
 
 - The 27 patch series "hugetlb/CMA improvements for large systems" from
   Frank van der Linden addresses a pile of issues which have been observed
   when using CMA on large machines.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/damon: introduce DAMOS filter type for unmapped
   pages" from SeongJae Park enables users of DMAON/DAMOS to filter my the
   page's mapped/unmapped status.
 
 - The 19 patch series "zsmalloc/zram: there be preemption" from Sergey
   Senozhatsky teaches zram to run its compression and decompression
   operations preemptibly.
 
 - The 12 patch series "selftests/mm: Some cleanups from trying to run
   them" from Brendan Jackman fixes a pile of unrelated issues which
   Brendan encountered while runnimg our selftests.
 
 - The 2 patch series "fs/proc/task_mmu: add guard region bit to pagemap"
   from Lorenzo Stoakes permits userspace to use /proc/pid/pagemap to
   determine whether a particular page is a guard page.
 
 - The 7 patch series "mm, swap: remove swap slot cache" from Kairui Song
   removes the swap slot cache from the allocation path - it simply wasn't
   being effective.
 
 - The 5 patch series "mm: cleanups for device-exclusive entries (hmm)"
   from David Hildenbrand implements a number of unrelated cleanups in this
   code.
 
 - The 5 patch series "mm: Rework generic PTDUMP configs" from Anshuman
   Khandual implements a number of preparatoty cleanups to the
   GENERIC_PTDUMP Kconfig logic.
 
 - The 8 patch series "mm/damon: auto-tune aggregation interval" from
   SeongJae Park implements a feedback-driven automatic tuning feature for
   DAMON's aggregation interval tuning.
 
 - The 5 patch series "Fix lazy mmu mode" from Ryan Roberts fixes some
   issues in powerpc, sparc and x86 lazy MMU implementations.  Ryan did
   this in preparation for implementing lazy mmu mode for arm64 to optimize
   vmalloc.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm/page_alloc: Some clarifications for migratetype
   fallback" from Brendan Jackman reworks some commentary to make the code
   easier to follow.
 
 - The 3 patch series "page_counter cleanup and size reduction" from
   Shakeel Butt cleans up the page_counter code and fixes a size increase
   which we accidentally added late last year.
 
 - The 3 patch series "Add a command line option that enables control of

   useful and intuitive" from SeongJae Park improves the handling of allow
   and reject filters.  Behaviour is made more consistent and the
   documention is updated accordingly.
 
 - The 5 patch series "Switch zswap to object read/write APIs" from Yosry
   Ahmed updates zswap to the new object read/write APIs and thus permits
   the removal of some legacy code from zpool and zsmalloc.

Merge tag 'mm-stable-2025-03-30-16-52' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:

 - The series "Enable strict percpu address space checks" from Uros
   Bizjak uses x86 named address space qualifiers to provide
   compile-time checking of percpu area accesses.

   This has caused a small amount of fallout - two or three issues were
   reported. In all cases the calling code was found to be incorrect.

 - The series "Some cleanup for memcg" from Chen Ridong implements some
   relatively monir cleanups for the memcontrol code.

 - The series "mm: fixes for device-exclusive entries (hmm)" from David
   Hildenbrand fixes a boatload of issues which David found then using
   device-exclusive PTE entries when THP is enabled. More work is
   needed, but this makes thins better - our own HMM selftests now
   succeed.

 - The series "mm: zswap: remove z3fold and zbud" from Yosry Ahmed
   remove the z3fold and zbud implementations. They have been deprecated
   for half a year and nobody has complained.

 - The series "mm: further simplify VMA merge operation" from Lorenzo
   Stoakes implements numerous simplifications in this area. No runtime
   effects are anticipated.

 - The series "mm/madvise: remove redundant mmap_lock operations from
   process_madvise()" from SeongJae Park rationalizes the locking in the
   madvise() implementation. Performance gains of 20-25% were observed
   in one MADV_DONTNEED microbenchmark.

 - The series "Tiny cleanup and improvements about SWAP code" from
   Baoquan He contains a number of touchups to issues which Baoquan
   noticed when working on the swap code.

 - The series "mm: kmemleak: Usability improvements" from Catalin
   Marinas implements a couple of improvements to the kmemleak
   user-visible output.

 - The series "mm/damon/paddr: fix large folios access and schemes
   handling" from Usama Arif provides a couple of fixes for DAMON's
   handling of large folios.

 - The series "mm/damon/core: fix wrong and/or useless damos_walk()
   behaviors" from SeongJae Park fixes a few issues with the accuracy of
   kdamond's walking of DAMON regions.

 - The series "expose mapping wrprotect, fix fb_defio use" from Lorenzo
   Stoakes changes the interaction between framebuffer deferred-io and
   core MM. No functional changes are anticipated - this is preparatory
   work for the future removal of page structure fields.

 - The series "mm/damon: add support for hugepage_size DAMOS filter"
   from Usama Arif adds a DAMOS filter which permits the filtering by
   huge page sizes.

 - The series "mm: permit guard regions for file-backed/shmem mappings"
   from Lorenzo Stoakes extends the guard region feature from its
   present "anon mappings only" state. The feature now covers shmem and
   file-backed mappings.

 - The series "mm: batched unmap lazyfree large folios during
   reclamation" from Barry Song cleans up and speeds up the unmapping
   for pte-mapped large folios.

 - The series "reimplement per-vma lock as a refcount" from Suren
   Baghdasaryan puts the vm_lock back into the vma. Our reasons for
   pulling it out were largely bogus and that change made the code more
   messy. This patchset provides small (0-10%) improvements on one
   microbenchmark.

 - The series "Docs/mm/damon: misc DAMOS filters documentation fixes and
   improves" from SeongJae Park does some maintenance work on the DAMON
   docs.

 - The series "hugetlb/CMA improvements for large systems" from Frank
   van der Linden addresses a pile of issues which have been observed
   when using CMA on large machines.

 - The series "mm/damon: introduce DAMOS filter type for unmapped pages"
   from SeongJae Park enables users of DMAON/DAMOS to filter my the
   page's mapped/unmapped status.

 - The series "zsmalloc/zram: there be preemption" from Sergey
   Senozhatsky teaches zram to run its compression and decompression
   operations preemptibly.

 - The series "selftests/mm: Some cleanups from trying to run them" from
   Brendan Jackman fixes a pile of unrelated issues which Brendan
   encountered while runnimg our selftests.

 - The series "fs/proc/task_mmu: add guard region bit to pagemap" from
   Lorenzo Stoakes permits userspace to use /proc/pid/pagemap to
   determine whether a particular page is a guard page.

 - The series "mm, swap: remove swap slot cache" from Kairui Song
   removes the swap slot cache from the allocation path - it simply
   wasn't being effective.

 - The series "mm: cleanups for device-exclusive entries (hmm)" from
   David Hildenbrand implements a number of unrelated cleanups in this
   code.

 - The series "mm: Rework generic PTDUMP configs" from Anshuman Khandual
   implements a number of preparatoty cleanups to the GENERIC_PTDUMP
   Kconfig logic.

 - The series "mm/damon: auto-tune aggregation interval" from SeongJae
   Park implements a feedback-driven automatic tuning feature for
   DAMON's aggregation interval tuning.

   powerpc, sparc and x86 lazy MMU implementations. Ryan did this in
   preparation for implementing lazy mmu mode for arm64 to optimize

   fallback" from Brendan Jackman reworks some commentary to make the
   code easier to follow.

 - The series "page_counter cleanup and size reduction" from Shakeel

   we accidentally added late last year.

 - The series "Add a command line option that enables control of how
