net: dsa: microchip: Remove unnecessary ksz_dev_ops callbacks [part]
This series continues the rework of the KSZ driver initiated by a previous
series (see [1]), following the discussion we had here [2].
The KSZ driver got way too convoluted over time because it uses a common
framework to handle more than 20 switches split in 5 families (see below
table)
+----------+---------+---------+---------+---------+---------+
| Family | KSZ8463 | KSZ87xx | KSZ88xx | KSZ9477 | LAN937X |
+----------+---------+---------+---------+---------+---------+
| Switches | KSZ8463 | KSZ8795 | KSZ88X3 | KSZ8563 | LAN9370 |
| | | KSZ8794 | KSZ8864 | KSZ9477 | LAN9371 |
| | | KSZ8765 | KSZ8895 | KSZ9896 | LAN9372 |
| | | | | KSZ9897 | LAN9373 |
| | | | | KSZ9893 | LAN9374 |
| | | | | KSZ9563 | |
| | | | | KSZ8567 | |
| | | | | KSZ9567 | |
| | | | | LAN9646 | |
+----------+---------+---------+---------+---------+---------+
The previous series ([1]) replaced the unique dsa_swicth_ops struct used
by all the KSZ families with one dsa_switch_ops struct for each family.
These dsa_switch_ops structs still rely on common functions that redirect
the calls to ksz_dev_ops operations which are custom to each switch
family. Many of hese ksz_dev_ops callbacks have a direct equivalent in the
struct dsa_switch_ops. This series directly connects the implementations of
these ksz_dev_ops operations to the relevant dsa_switch_ops attribute
to get rid of one unnecessary level of indirection.

ksz_phylink_get_caps() is a bit different from other generic methods.
It has a dev_ops->get_caps() call in the middle of the function, and it
does other stuff before (set some supported_interfaces) and after (set
lpi_interfaces from supported_interfaces).
Whereas the dev_ops->get_caps() methods set mac_capabilities and
(optionally) logically OR the supported_interfaces with that of the PCS.
The idea is that this can be expressed simpler, and avoid a indirect
function call to dev_ops->get_caps(). If we tail-call the common
ksz_phylink_get_caps() from individual phylink_get_caps() methods, we do
reorder the settings, but in an inconsequential way (the transfer from
supported_interfaces to lpi_interfaces still sees a complete list of the
supported_interfaces).
Remove the no longer used get_caps() callbacl the ksz_dev_ops.

This change should cause no difference in behavior; it just cleans up some
hazardous code that could have become a problem in the future.
MSG_NO_SHARED_FRAGS is a kernel-internal flag that cancels the effect of
MSG_SPLICE_PAGES, another kernel-internal flag that influences the
data-sharing semantics of SKBs.
Prevent passing this flag in from userspace via sendmsg() by adding it to
MSG_INTERNAL_SENDMSG_FLAGS.
This is not currently an observable problem because MSG_NO_SHARED_FRAGS
only has an effect if kernel code adds MSG_SPLICE_PAGES to it.
The only codepath that adds MSG_SPLICE_PAGES to user-supplied flags from
which MSG_NO_SHARED_FRAGS hasn't been cleared is the path
tcp_bpf_sendmsg -> tcp_bpf_send_verdict -> tcp_bpf_push, and that is not a
problem because tcp_bpf_sendmsg always intentionally sets
MSG_NO_SHARED_FRAGS anyway.

The 'dumpability' of a task is fundamentally about the memory image of
the task - the concept comes from whether it can core dump or not - and
makes no sense when you don't have an associated mm.
And almost all users do in fact use it only for the case where the task
has a mm pointer.
But we have one odd special case: ptrace_may_access() uses 'dumpable' to
check various other things entirely independently of the MM (typically
explicitly using flags like PTRACE_MODE_READ_FSCREDS). Including for
threads that no longer have a VM (and maybe never did, like most kernel
threads).
It's not what this flag was designed for, but it is what it is.
The ptrace code does check that the uid/gid matches, so you do have to
be uid-0 to see kernel thread details, but this means that the
traditional "drop capabilities" model doesn't make any difference for
this all.
Make it all make a *bit* more sense by saying that if you don't have a
MM pointer, we'll use a cached "last dumpability" flag if the thread
ever had a MM (it will be zero for kernel threads since it is never
set), and require a proper CAP_SYS_PTRACE capability to override.

Sashiko points out that if end = 0 (start != 0) the current
code will create a chain link to content type right after
the wrap link:
This would create a chain where the wrap link points directly
to another chain link. The scatterlist API sg_next iterator
does not recursively resolve consecutive chain links.
meaning this is illegal input to crypto.
The wrapping link is unnecessary if end = 0. end is the entry after
the last one used so end = 0 means there's nothing pushed after
the wrap:
end start i
v v v
[ ]...[ ][ d ][ d ][ d ][ d ][rsv for wrap]
Skip the wrapping in this case.
TLS 1.3 can use the "wrapping slot" for it's chaining if end = 0.
This avoids the chain-after-chain.
Move the wrap chaining before marking END and chaining off content
type, that feels like more logical ordering to me, but should not
matter from functional perspective.

When an sk_msg scatterlist ring wraps (sg.end < sg.start),
tls_push_record() chains the tail portion of the ring to the head
using sg_chain(). An extra entry in the sg array is reserved for
this:
struct sk_msg_sg {
[...]
/* The extra two elements:
* 1) used for chaining the front and sections when the list becomes
* partitioned (e.g. end < start). The crypto APIs require the

* 2) to chain tailer SG entries after the message.
*/
struct scatterlist data[MAX_MSG_FRAGS + 2];
The current code uses MAX_SKB_FRAGS + 1 as the ring size:
sg_chain(&msg_pl->sg.data[msg_pl->sg.start],
MAX_SKB_FRAGS - msg_pl->sg.start + 1,
msg_pl->sg.data);
This places the chain pointer at
sg_chain(data[start], (MAX_SKB_FRAGS - msg_start + 1) .. =

data[start + (MAX_SKB_FRAGS - start + 1) - 1] =

====================
bridge: Add selective forwarding of gratuitous neighbor announcements
The existing neighbor suppression unconditionally suppresses gratuitous
ARPs and unsolicited Neighbor Advertisements, which prevents fast
mobility of hosts between VTEPs.
This series adds a new neigh_forward_grat option that provides
independent control of gratuitous ARP and unsolicited NA forwarding.
When neigh_suppress is enabled but neigh_forward_grat is enabled,
regular neighbor discovery is suppressed while gratuitous announcements
are forwarded.
The implementation marks gratuitous ARPs and unsolicited NAs in
BR_INPUT_SKB_CB during input processing, then checks the per-output-port
neigh_forward_grat setting during flooding. This allows gratuitous
announcements from any input port to be selectively forwarded based on
each output port's individual configuration.
Both port-level control (via IFLA_BRPORT_NEIGH_FORWARD_GRAT) and
per-VLAN control (via BRIDGE_VLANDB_ENTRY_NEIGH_FORWARD_GRAT) are
provided. The default value of OFF preserves existing behavior.
This behavior is in accordance with RFC 9161 (Section 3.6), which
recommends that VTEPs forward gratuitous ARP and unsolicited NA messages
to avoid traffic disruption during host mobility events.
The new attributes use NLA_U8, although the kernel netlink guideline
recommends NLA_U32 as the minimum integer type on the grounds that
alignment makes smaller types equivalent on the wire. For a simple
on/off attribute there is no technical advantage to u32 over u8, and
keeping u8 preserves consistency with all surrounding bridge port
attributes and avoids introducing new helpers alongside the existing
infrastructure.

Patch #1: adds uapi headers.
Patches #2-#3: support selective forwarding of gratuitous ARP.
Patches #4-#5: add netlink handling.
Patch #6: adds tests.

Add tests to validate the neigh_forward_grat bridge option for selective
forwarding of gratuitous neighbor announcements.
The tests verify per-port and per-VLAN control of gratuitous neighbor
announcement forwarding for both IPv4 (gratuitous ARP) and IPv6
(unsolicited NA):
- When neigh_suppress is enabled with neigh_forward_grat off (default),
gratuitous announcements are suppressed
- When neigh_forward_grat is enabled, gratuitous announcements are
forwarded while regular neighbor discovery remains suppressed
For IPv4, use arping to send gratuitous ARP packets. For IPv6, use
mausezahn to craft unsolicited Neighbor Advertisement packets.
For the per-port tests, the IPv4 test exercises the ip link interface,
while the IPv6 test exercises the bridge link interface.
The per-VLAN tests use the bridge interface throughout, as per-VLAN
attributes are only accessible via 'bridge vlan'.

neighbor announcements. When neigh_suppress is enabled but
neigh_forward_grat is disabled (default), gratuitous announcements are
suppressed. When neigh_forward_grat is enabled, gratuitous announcements
are forwarded while regular neighbor discovery remains suppressed.
The implementation provides per-output-port control by:
1. Adding a 'grat_arp' flag to BR_INPUT_SKB_CB to mark gratuitous ARPs and
unsolicited NAs.
2. Setting both grat_arp and proxyarp_replied flags in
br_do_proxy_suppress_arp() and br_do_suppress_nd() when gratuitous
packets are detected.
3. Checking neigh_forward_grat per output port during flooding:
- For gratuitous ARPs/NAs: suppress unless the output port has
neigh_forward_grat enabled.
- For regular ARPs/NDs: maintain existing behavior.
This allows gratuitous announcements from any input port to be selectively
forwarded based on each output port's individual neigh_forward_grat
setting, enabling gratuitous neighbor announcements to be flooded to the
VXLAN fabric.
Regular neighbor discovery (ARP requests, NS queries, solicited replies)
remains controlled by neigh_suppress and is unaffected.

forwarding when neighbor suppression is enabled.
Add IFLA_BRPORT_NEIGH_FORWARD_GRAT for port-level control and
BRIDGE_VLANDB_ENTRY_NEIGH_FORWARD_GRAT for per-VLAN control.
The new attributes provide independent control of gratuitous ARP and
unsolicited NA packets. Operators can enable forwarding for those packets
for fast mobility across VTEPs while keeping general neighbor suppression
active.

On the SMC-D client, slot 0 of ini->ism_dev[]/ini->ism_chid[] is
reserved for an SMC-Dv1 device. smc_find_ism_v2_device_clnt()
populates V2 entries starting at index 1, so when no V1 device is
selected slot 0 is left in its kzalloc()'ed state with ism_dev[0] ==
NULL and ism_chid[0] == 0.
smc_v2_determine_accepted_chid() then matches the peer's CHID against
the array starting from index 0 using the CHID alone. A malicious
peer replying to a SMC-Dv2-only proposal with d1.chid == 0 matches
the empty slot, ini->ism_selected becomes 0, and the subsequent
ism_dev[0]->lgr_lock dereference in smc_conn_create() faults at

Add 64-bit counters for each impairment netem applies (delay, loss,
ECN marking, corruption, duplication, reordering) and for skb
allocation failures during enqueue. Exposed through TCA_STATS_APP
as struct tc_netem_xstats.
Counters increment when an impairment is occurs, independent of later
events that may mask its on-wire effect. Added allocation_errors
(similar to sch_fq) to account for when impairment could not be
applied due to memory pressure, etc.

The current layout of struct netem_sched_data can be improved
by optimizing cache locality, compacting data types (use u8
for enum) and eliminating unused elements.
Reorganize the struct as follows:
- Cacheline 0 holds the tfifo state (t_root/t_head/t_tail/t_len),
counter, and the unconditional enqueue scalars
latency/jitter/rate/gap/loss.
- Cacheline 1 holds the remaining zero-check scalars
(duplicate/reorder/corrupt/ecn), all five crndstate correlation
structures, and loss_model.
- Cacheline 2 holds prng, delay_dist, the slot dequeue state,
slot_dist, and the inner classful qdisc pointer.
- Rate-shaping fields, q->limit (config-only; the fast path reads
sch->limit), and the CLG Markov state move to the warm tail.
- tc_netem_slot slot_config and qdisc_watchdog (only consulted on
slot reschedule and watchdog wake) move to the cold tail.
Also reorder struct clgstate to place the u8 state member after the
u32 transition probabilities. This removes the 3-byte interior hole
without changing the struct's size.
Should have no functional change.

net/mlx5e: improve RSS indirection table sizing and resizing
This series by Yael improves mlx5e RSS indirection table handling around
channel count changes and large RSS configurations.
The series:
* removes the XOR8-specific channel count limitation,
* advertises the maximum supported RSS indirection table size,
* fixes resizing of non-default RSS contexts,
* allows resizing configured default RSS contexts during channel
changes,
* and increases the default RSS spread factor from 2x to 4x to improve
traffic distribution for large channel counts.
Together, these changes make RSS table sizing more flexible and robust,
while improving load balancing behavior on large systems.

Increase the RQT uniform spread factor from 2 to 4 so that each channel
gets more indirection table entries and traffic is spread more evenly.
For num_channels > 64 imbalance drops from up to ~50% to up to ~25%.
For 64 or fewer channels the 256 entry minimum already provides at least
4x coverage and the table size is unchanged by this commit.
This satisfies the minimum 4x coverage requirement validated by the
generic RSS selftest commit 9e3d4dae98 ("selftests: drv-net: rss:
validate min RSS table size").
The 4x spread factor is best-effort and the table size is always capped by
the device's log_max_rqt_size capability.

mlx5e_ethtool_set_channels() rejected channel count changes that
required a different RQT size when the default context indirection
table was user-configured. This restriction was introduced by
commit ee3572409f ("net/mlx5e: RSS, Block changing channels number
when RXFH is configured").
Lift the restriction. Validate the resize upfront with
ethtool_rxfh_indir_can_resize(), then fold or unfold the table
in-place via ethtool_rxfh_indir_resize() inside state_lock, before
mlx5e_safe_switch_params(), so the preactivate callback sees the
correct table content when it programs the HW.

When the channel count changes and the RQT size changes with it, a
problem arise for non-default RSS contexts. The driver-side indirection
table grows actual_table_size without filling the new entries; stale
entries from a prior larger configuration may be re-exposed, causing
mlx5e_calc_indir_rqns() to WARN on an out-of-range index.
Replace mlx5e_rss_params_indir_modify_actual_size() with
mlx5e_rss_ctx_resize(), which fills new entries by replicating
the existing pattern, matching what ethtool_rxfh_ctxs_resize() does
for the same case. And restrict the loop to non-default contexts.
Call ethtool_rxfh_ctxs_can_resize() before acquiring state_lock to
validate that all non-default contexts can be resized, and
ethtool_rxfh_ctxs_resize() after releasing it to fold or unfold their
indirection tables. Both functions acquire rss_lock internally and
cannot be called under state_lock. RTNL, held by all set_channels
callers, serialises context creation and deletion making the pre-lock
check safe.
Guard both ethtool calls on mlx5e_rx_res_rss_cnt() > 1: skip the
validation and resize when no non-default contexts exist. This
naturally covers representors and IPoIB, which share
mlx5e_ethtool_set_channels() but cannot have non-default RSS contexts.

Without this, ethtool_rxfh_ctxs_can_resize() returns -EINVAL, blocking
