Takahiro Itazuri says:

====================
ptp: vmclock: Add VM generation counter and ACPI notification

Similarly to live migration, starting a VM from some serialized state
(aka snapshot) is an event which calls for adjusting guest clocks, hence
a hypervisor should increase the disruption_marker before resuming the
VM vCPUs, letting the guest know.

However, loading a snapshot, is slightly different than live migration,
especially since we can start multiple VMs from the same serialized
state. Apart from adjusting clocks, the guest needs to take additional
action during such events, e.g. recreate UUIDs, reset network
adapters/connections, reseed entropy pools, etc. These actions are not
necessary during live migration. This calls for a differentiation
between the two triggering events.

We differentiate between the two events via an extra field in the
vmclock_abi, called vm_generation_counter. Whereas hypervisors should
increase the disruption marker in both cases, they should only increase
vm_generation_counter when a snapshot is loaded in a VM (not during live
migration).

Additionally, we attach an ACPI notification to VMClock. Implementing
the notification is optional for the device. VMClock device will declare
that it implements the notification by setting
VMCLOCK_FLAG_NOTIFICATION_PRESENT bit in vmclock_abi flags. Hypervisors
that implement the notification must send an ACPI notification every
time seq_count changes to an even number. The driver will propagate
these notifications to userspace via the poll() interface.

562f59fe32 ptp: ptp_vmclock: return TAI not UTC
To output UTC would involve complex calculations about whether the time
elapsed since the reference time has crossed the end of the month when
a leap second takes effect. I've prototyped that, but it made me sad.

Much better to report TAI, which is what PHCs should do anyway.
And much much simpler.

ed4d23ed46 ptp: ptp_vmclock: add 'VMCLOCK' to ACPI device match
As we finalised the spec, we spotted that vmgenid actually says that the
_HID is supposed to be hypervisor-specific. Although in the 13 years
since the original vmgenid doc was published, nobody seems to have cared
about using _HID to distinguish between implementations on different
hypervisors, and we only ever use the _CID.

For consistency, match the _CID of "VMCLOCK" too.

ddc867d0b5 ptp: ptp_vmclock: Add device tree support
Add device tree support to the ptp_vmclock driver, allowing it to probe
via device tree in addition to ACPI.

Handle optional interrupt for clock disruption notifications, mirroring
the ACPI notification behaviour.

Although the interrupt is marked as 'optional' in the DT bindings, if
the device *advertises* the VMCLOCK_FLAG_NOTIFICATION_ABSENT then it
*should* have an interrupt. The driver will refuse to initialize if not.

3b1526ddb2 ptp: vmclock: support device notifications
Add optional support for device notifications in VMClock. When
supported, the hypervisor will send a device notification every time it
updates the seq_count to a new even value.

Moreover, add support for poll() in VMClock as a means to propagate this
notification to user space. poll() will return a POLLIN event to
listeners every time seq_count changes to a value different than the one
last seen (since open() or last read()/pread()). This means that when
poll() returns a POLLIN event, listeners need to use read() to observe
what has changed and update the reader's view of seq_count. In other
words, after a poll() returned, all subsequent calls to poll() will
immediately return with a POLLIN event until the listener calls read().

The device advertises support for the notification mechanism by setting
flag VMCLOCK_FLAG_NOTIFICATION_PRESENT in vmclock_abi flags field. If
the flag is not present the driver won't setup the ACPI notification
handler and poll() will always immediately return POLLHUP.

3495064b6d ptp: vmclock: add vm generation counter
Similar to live migration, loading a VM from some saved state (aka
snapshot) is also an event that calls for clock adjustments in the
guest. However, guests might want to take more actions as a response to
such events, e.g. as discarding UUIDs, resetting network connections,
reseeding entropy pools, etc. These are actions that guests don't
typically take during live migration, so add a new field in the
vmclock_abi called vm_generation_counter which informs the guest about
such events.

Hypervisor advertises support for vm_generation_counter through the
VMCLOCK_FLAG_VM_GEN_COUNTER_PRESENT flag. Users need to check the
presence of this bit in vmclock_abi flags field before using this flag.

features at once. LED_0 controls both port mirroring and whether SGMII
is enabled. If it is pulled to VDDIO, both port mirroring and SGMII
will be enabled. For variants of the dp83867 that do not support SGMII,
this will prevent data from being transferred. As we now explicitly set
the SGMII and RGMII enable bits, we do not need to detect whether SGMII
has been inadvertently enabled.

61cef6454c bnxt_en: Allow ntuple filters for drops
It appears that in commit 7efd79c0e6 ("bnxt_en: Add drop action
support for ntuple"), bnxt gained support for ntuple filters for packet
drops.

However, support for this does not seem to work in recent kernels or
against net-next:

  % sudo ethtool -U eth0 flow-type udp4 src-ip 1.1.1.1 action -1
    rmgr: Cannot insert RX class rule: Operation not supported
    Cannot insert classification rule

The issue is that the existing code uses ethtool_get_flow_spec_ring_vf,
which will return a non-zero value if the ring_cookie is set to
RX_CLS_FLOW_DISC, which then causes bnxt_add_ntuple_cls_rule to return
-EOPNOTSUPP because it thinks the user is trying to set an ntuple filter
for a vf.

Fix this by first checking that the ring_cookie is not RX_CLS_FLOW_DISC.

After this patch, ntuple filters for drops can be added:

  % sudo ethtool -U eth0 flow-type udp4 src-ip 1.1.1.1 action -1
  Added rule with ID 0

  % ethtool -n eth0
  44 RX rings available
  Total 1 rules

  Filter: 0
      Rule Type: UDP over IPv4
      Src IP addr: 1.1.1.1 mask: 0.0.0.0
      Dest IP addr: 0.0.0.0 mask: 255.255.255.255
      TOS: 0x0 mask: 0xff
      Src port: 0 mask: 0xffff

Add a test which checks that the RSS table is at least 4x the max
queue count supported by the device. The original RSS spec from
Microsoft stated that the RSS indirection table should be 2 to 8
times the CPU count, presumably assuming queue per CPU. If the
CPU count is not a power of two, however, a power-of-2 table
2x larger than queue count results in a 33% traffic imbalance.
Validate that the indirection table is at least 4x the queue
count. This lowers the imbalance to 16% which empirically
appears to be more acceptable to memcache-like workloads.

df31a6b0a3 Revert "net/smc: Introduce TCP ULP support"
This reverts commit d7cd421da9.

As reported by Al Viro, the TCP ULP support for SMC is fundamentally
broken. The implementation attempts to convert an active TCP socket
into an SMC socket by modifying the underlying `struct file`, dentry,
and inode in-place, which violates core VFS invariants that assume
these structures are immutable for an open file, creating a risk of
use after free errors and general system instability.

Given the severity of this design flaw and the fact that cleaner
alternatives (e.g., LD_PRELOAD, BPF) exist for legacy application
transparency, the correct course of action is to remove this feature
entirely.

Slark Xiao says:

====================
net: wwan: add NMEA port type support

The series introduces a long discussed NMEA port type support for the
WWAN subsystem. There are two goals. From the WWAN driver perspective,
NMEA exported as any other port type (e.g. AT, MBIM, QMI, etc.). From
user space software perspective, the exported chardev belongs to the
GNSS class what makes it easy to distinguish desired port and the WWAN
device common to both NMEA and control (AT, MBIM, etc.) ports makes it
easy to locate a control port for the GNSS receiver activation.

Done by exporting the NMEA port via the GNSS subsystem with the WWAN
core acting as proxy between the WWAN modem driver and the GNSS
subsystem.

The series starts from a cleanup patch. Then three patches prepares the
WWAN core for the proxy style operation. Followed by a patch introding a
new WWNA port type, integration with the GNSS subsystem and demux. The
series ends with a couple of patches that introduce emulated EMEA port
to the WWAN HW simulator.

The series is the product of the discussion with Loic about the pros and
cons of possible models and implementation. Also Muhammad and Slark did
a great job defining the problem, sharing the code and pushing me to
finish the implementation. Daniele has caught an issue on driver
unloading and suggested an investigation direction. What was concluded
by Loic. Many thanks.

5b2e294e0c net: wwan: add NMEA port support
Many WWAN modems come with embedded GNSS receiver inside and have a
dedicated port to output geopositioning data. On the one hand, the
GNSS receiver has little in common with WWAN modem and just shares a
host interface and should be exported using the GNSS subsystem. On the
other hand, GNSS receiver is not automatically activated and needs a
generic WWAN control port (AT, MBIM, etc.) to be turned on. And a user
space software needs extra information to find the control port.

Introduce the new type of WWAN port - NMEA. When driver asks to register
a NMEA port, the core allocates common parent WWAN device as usual, but
exports the NMEA port via the GNSS subsystem and acts as a proxy between
the device driver and the GNSS subsystem.

From the WWAN device driver perspective, a NMEA port is registered as a
regular WWAN port without any difference. And the driver interacts only
with the WWAN core. From the user space perspective, the NMEA port is a
GNSS device which parent can be used to enumerate and select the proper
control port for the GNSS receiver management.

b9879ba78d net: wwan: core: explicit WWAN device reference counting
We need information about existing WWAN device children since we remove
the device after removing the last child. Previously, we tracked users
implicitly by checking whether ops was registered and existence of a
child device of the wwan_class class. Upcoming GNSS (NMEA) port type
support breaks this approach by introducing a child device of the
gnss_class class.

And a modem driver can easily trigger a kernel Oops by removing regular
(e.g., MBIM, AT) ports first and then removing a GNSS port. The WWAN
device will be unregistered on removal of a last regular WWAN port. And
subsequent GNSS port removal will cause NULL pointer dereference in
simple_recursive_removal().

In order to support ports of classes other than wwan_class, switch to
explicit references counting. Introduce a dedicated counter to the WWAN
device struct, increment it on every wwan_create_dev() call, decrement
on wwan_remove_dev(), and actually unregister the WWAN device when there
are no more references.

Run tested with wwan_hwsim with NMEA support patches applied and
different port removing sequences.

Note that the cloning mechanism in fbnic_ethtool.c for configuration
changes protects against concurrency issues with simultaneous config
changes along with debugs ring accesses.

The configuration switch builds up the new configuration offline,
takes the current config down, which removes the debugfs nv files, and
switches to the new configuration.   The new configuration is brought
up which brings the debugfs files back on top of the new configuration
rings.

The interaction with fbnic_queue_stop() and fbnic_queue_start() will
similarly delete and add the files for the indicated vector.

Many USB network drivers define get_drvinfo functions which add no
value over usbnet_get_drvinfo, only setting the driver name and
version. usbnet_get_drvinfo automatically sets the driver name, and
separate driver versions are now frowned upon in the kernel. Remove all
driver versions and replace these get_drvinfo functions with references
to usbnet_get_drvinfo where possible. Where that is not possible,
remove unnecessary code to set the driver name. Also remove two
unnecessary initializations from aqc111_get_drvinfo, an inaccurate
comment in pegasus.c, and an unused macro in catc.c.

820990d665 udp: add drop count for packets in udp_prod_queue
This commit adds SNMP drop count increment for the packets in
per NUMA queues which were introduced in commit b650bf0977
("udp: remove busylock and add per NUMA queues"). note that SNMP
counters are incremented currently by the caller for skb. And
that these skbs on the intermediate queue cannot be counted
there so need similar logic in their error path.

ed9b70040d tcp: reduce tcp sockets size by one cache line
By default, when a kmem_cache is created with SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU,
slub has to use extra storage for the freelist pointer after each
object, because slub assumes that any bit in the object
can be used by RCU readers.

Because proto_register() is also using SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN,
this forces slub to use one extra cache line per object.

We can instead put the slub freelist anywhere in the object,
granted the concurrent RCU readers are not supposed to
use the pointer value.

Add a new (struct sock)sk_freeptr field, in an union
with sk_rcu: No RCU readers would need to look at sk_rcu,
which is only used at free phase.

Tested:

grep . /sys/kernel/slab/TCP/{object_size,slab_size,objs_per_slab}
grep . /sys/kernel/slab/TCPv6/{object_size,slab_size,objs_per_slab}

Before:

/sys/kernel/slab/TCP/object_size:2368
/sys/kernel/slab/TCP/slab_size:2432
/sys/kernel/slab/TCP/objs_per_slab:13

/sys/kernel/slab/TCPv6/object_size:2496
/sys/kernel/slab/TCPv6/slab_size:2560
/sys/kernel/slab/TCPv6/objs_per_slab:12

After this patch, we can pack one more TCPv6 object per slab,
and object_size == slab_size.

/sys/kernel/slab/TCP/object_size:2368
/sys/kernel/slab/TCP/slab_size:2368
/sys/kernel/slab/TCP/objs_per_slab:13

/sys/kernel/slab/TCPv6/object_size:2496
/sys/kernel/slab/TCPv6/slab_size:2496
/sys/kernel/slab/TCPv6/objs_per_slab:13
