appletalk: move the protocol out of tree
AppleTalk has been removed in MacOS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard), in 2009, according to Wikipedia. We recently got a burst of AI generated fixes to this protocol which nobody is reviewing. Let AppleTalk follow AX.25 and hamradio out of the Linux tree. We we will maintain the code at: github.com/linux-netdev/mod-orphan for anyone interested in playing with it. Retain the uAPI for now. No strong reason, simply because I suspect keeping it will be less controversial.

bluetooth: remove all PCMCIA 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

crypto: pcbc - Remove support for PCBC mode
The only user of PCBC mode (Propagating Cipher Block Chaining mode) was net/rxrpc/rxkad.c, which now uses local code instead. While PCBC was an interesting cryptographic experiment, it has largely been relegated to the history books and academic exercises. It is non-parallelizable (i.e., very slow) and doesn't actually achieve the integrity properties it was apparently intended to achieve. Remove support for it from the crypto API.

crypto: fcrypt - Remove support for FCrypt block cipher
Remove the insecure FCrypt block cipher from the crypto API. Its only user was net/rxrpc/, but now net/rxrpc/ implements it locally. The crypto API implementation is no longer needed. For some additional context: FCrypt was designed in 1988 and is essentially a weakened version of DES. It has the same 56-bit key size as DES, which is easily brute forced. Moreover, it's cryptographically weak and doesn't even provide the intended 56-bit security level. Its author considers it to be a mistake, as well (https://lists.openafs.org/pipermail/openafs-devel/2000-December/005320.html). But fortunately this 1980s-era homebrew block cipher was never adopted outside of net/rxrpc/. So its code can just be kept there.

char: dtlk: remove driver for ISA speech synthesizer card
The dtlk driver supports the RC Systems DoubleTalk PC ISA speech synthesizer card. It has severe coding style issues and has only received tree-wide fixes and drive-by cleanups in the entire Git history (since Linux 2.6.12-rc2). The same hardware is supported by drivers/accessibility/speakup for screen reader use, but that implementation does not share any code with this driver. Given all of these factors, it is likely the driver is entirely unused. Remove it to reduce future maintenance workload. Note: The removed maintainer is already listed in CREDITS.

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".

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

the enablement of CIX HD-audio controller, which took a bit time to
be cooked up, while most of other changes are device-specific small
trivial fixes.
- Default disablement of the kconfig for decades old pre-release
alsa-lib PCM API; it's only the default config value change, so
it can't lead to any regressions for the existing setups
- Support for CIX HD-audio controller
- A few ASoC ACP fixes
- Fixes for ASoC cirrus, bcm, wcd, qcom, ak platforms
- Trivial hardening for FireWire and USB-audio
- HD-audio Intel binding fix and quirks

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.

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.

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.

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'.

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.
- Aeonsemi 10G C45 PHYs driver.
