Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
"Core & protocols:
- Improve drop account scalability on NUMA hosts for RAW and UDP
sockets and the backlog, almost doubling the Pps capacity under DoS
- Optimize the UDP RX performance under stress, reducing contention,
revisiting the binary layout of the involved data structs and
implementing NUMA-aware locking. This improves UDP RX performance
by an additional 50%, even more under extreme conditions
- Add support for PSP encryption of TCP connections; this mechanism
has some similarities with IPsec and TLS, but offers superior HW
offloads capabilities
- Ongoing work to support Accurate ECN for TCP. AccECN allows more
than one congestion notification signal per RTT and is a building
block for Low Latency, Low Loss, and Scalable Throughput (L4S)
- Reorganize the TCP socket binary layout for data locality, reducing
the number of touched cachelines in the fastpath
- Refactor skb deferral free to better scale on large multi-NUMA
hosts, this improves TCP and UDP RX performances significantly on
such HW
- Increase the default socket memory buffer limits from 256K to 4M to
better fit modern link speeds
- Improve handling of setups with a large number of nexthop, making
dump operating scaling linearly and avoiding unneeded
synchronize_rcu() on delete
- Improve bridge handling of VLAN FDB, storing a single entry per
bridge instead of one entry per port; this makes the dump order of
magnitude faster on large switches
- Restore IP ID correctly for encapsulated packets at GSO
segmentation time, allowing GRO to merge packets in more scenarios
- Improve netfilter matching performance on large sets
- Improve MPTCP receive path performance by leveraging recently
introduced core infrastructure (skb deferral free) and adopting
recent TCP autotuning changes
- Allow bridges to redirect to a backup port when the bridge port is
administratively down
- Introduce MPTCP 'laminar' endpoint that con be used only once per
connection and simplify common MPTCP setups
- Add RCU safety to dst->dev, closing a lot of possible races
- A significant crypto library API for SCTP, MPTCP and IPv6 SR,
reducing code duplication
- Supports pulling data from an skb frag into the linear area of an
XDP buffer
Things we sprinkled into general kernel code:
- Generate netlink documentation from YAML using an integrated YAML
parser
Driver API:
- Support using IPv6 Flow Label in Rx hash computation and RSS queue
selection

easily building DevMem-enabled drivers with a unified XDP/skbs
datapath
- Add a new dedicated ethtool callback enabling drivers to provide
the number of RX rings directly, improving efficiency and clarity
in RX ring queries and RSS configuration
- Introduce a burst period for the health reporter, allowing better
handling of multiple errors due to the same root cause
- Support for DPLL phase offset exponential moving average,
controlling the average smoothing factor

Pull io_uring updates from Jens Axboe:
- Store ring provided buffers locally for the users, rather than stuff
them into struct io_kiocb.
These types of buffers must always be fully consumed or recycled in
the current context, and leaving them in struct io_kiocb is hence not
a good ideas as that struct has a vastly different life time.
Basically just an architecture cleanup that can help prevent issues
with ring provided buffers in the future.
- Support for mixed CQE sizes in the same ring.
Before this change, a CQ ring either used the default 16b CQEs, or it
was setup with 32b CQE using IORING_SETUP_CQE32. For use cases where
a few 32b CQEs were needed, this caused everything else to use big
CQEs. This is wasteful both in terms of memory usage, but also memory
bandwidth for the posted CQEs.
With IORING_SETUP_CQE_MIXED, applications may use request types that
post both normal 16b and big 32b CQEs on the same ring.
- Add helpers for async data management, to make it harder for opcode
handlers to mess it up.
- Add support for multishot for uring_cmd, which ublk can use. This
helps improve efficiency, by providing a persistent request type that
can trigger multiple CQEs.
- Add initial support for ring feature querying.
We had basic support for probe operations, but the API isn't great.
Rather than expand that, add support for QUERY which is easily
expandable and can cover a lot more cases than the existing probe
support. This will help applications get a better idea of what
operations are supported on a given host.
- zcrx improvements from Pavel:
- Improve refill entry alignment for better caching
- Various cleanups, especially around deduplicating normal
memory vs dmabuf setup.
- Generalisation of the niov size (Patch 12). It's still hard
coded to PAGE_SIZE on init, but will let the user to specify
the rx buffer length on setup.
- Syscall / synchronous bufer return. It'll be used as a slow
fallback path for returning buffers when the refill queue is
full. Useful for tolerating slight queue size misconfiguration
or with inconsistent load.
- Accounting more memory to cgroups.
- Additional independent cleanups that will also be useful for
mutli-area support.
- Various fixes and cleanups

Introduce a new document, flow_control.rst, to provide a comprehensive
guide on Ethernet Flow Control in Linux. The guide explains how flow
control works, how autonegotiation resolves pause capabilities, and how
to configure it using ethtool and Netlink.
In parallel, document the pause and pause-stat attributes in the
ethtool.yaml netlink spec. This enables the ynl tool to generate
kernel-doc comments for the corresponding enums in the UAPI header,
making the C interface self-documenting.
Finally, replace the legacy flow control section in phy.rst with a
reference to the new document and add pointers in the relevant C source
files.

Daniel Zahka says:
==================
add basic PSP encryption for TCP connections
This is v13 of the PSP RFC [1] posted by Jakub Kicinski one year
ago. General developments since v1 include a fork of packetdrill [2]
with support for PSP added, as well as some test cases, and an
implementation of PSP key exchange and connection upgrade [3]
integrated into the fbthrift RPC library. Both [2] and [3] have been
tested on server platforms with PSP-capable CX7 NICs. Below is the
cover letter from the original RFC:
Add support for PSP encryption of TCP connections.
PSP is a protocol out of Google:
https://github.com/google/psp/blob/main/doc/PSP_Arch_Spec.pdf
which shares some similarities with IPsec. I added some more info
in the first patch so I'll keep it short here.
The protocol can work in multiple modes including tunneling.
But I'm mostly interested in using it as TLS replacement because
of its superior offload characteristics. So this patch does three
things:
- it adds "core" PSP code
PSP is offload-centric, and requires some additional care and
feeding, so first chunk of the code exposes device info.
This part can be reused by PSP implementations in xfrm, tunneling etc.
- TCP integration TLS style
Reuse some of the existing concepts from TLS offload, such as
attaching crypto state to a socket, marking skbs as "decrypted",
egress validation. PSP does not prescribe key exchange protocols.
To use PSP as a more efficient TLS offload we intend to perform
a TLS handshake ("inline" in the same TCP connection) and negotiate
switching to PSP based on capabilities of both endpoints.
This is also why I'm not including a software implementation.
Nobody would use it in production, software TLS is faster,
it has larger crypto records.
- mlx5 implementation
That's mostly other people's work, not 100% sure those folks
consider it ready hence the RFC in the title. But it works :)
Not posted, queued a branch [4] are follow up pieces:
- standard stats
- netdevsim implementation and tests
[1] https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20240510030435.120935-1-kuba@kernel.org/
[2] https://github.com/danieldzahka/packetdrill
[3] https://github.com/danieldzahka/fbthrift/tree/dzahka/psp
[4] https://github.com/kuba-moo/linux/tree/psp
Comments we intend to defer to future series:
- we prefer to keep the version field in the tx-assoc netlink
request, because it makes parsing keys require less state early
on, but we are willing to change in the next version of this
series.
- using a static branch to wrap psp_enqueue_set_decrypted() and
other functions called from tcp.
- using INDIRECT_CALL for tls/psp in sk_validate_xmit_skb(). We
prefer to address this in a dedicated patch series, so that this
series does not need to modify the way tls_validate_xmit_skb() is
declared and stubbed out.

Instead of sending the option in every ACK, limit sending to
those ACKs where the option is necessary:
- Handshake
- "Change-triggered ACK" + the ACK following it. The
2nd ACK is necessary to unambiguously indicate which
of the ECN byte counters in increasing. The first
ACK has two counters increasing due to the ecnfield
edge.
- ACKs with CE to allow CEP delta validations to take
advantage of the option.
- Force option to be sent every at least once per 2^22
bytes. The check is done using the bit edges of the
byte counters (avoids need for extra variables).
- AccECN option beacon to send a few times per RTT even if
nothing in the ECN state requires that. The default is 3
times per RTT, and its period can be set via
sysctl_tcp_ecn_option_beacon.

The Accurate ECN allows echoing back the sum of bytes for
each IP ECN field value in the received packets using
AccECN option. This change implements AccECN option tx & rx
side processing without option send control related features
that are added by a later change.
Based on specification:
https://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-ietf-tcpm-accurate-ecn-28.txt
(Some features of the spec will be added in the later changes
rather than in this one).
A full-length AccECN option is always attempted but if it does
not fit, the minimum length is selected based on the counters
that have changed since the last update. The AccECN option
(with 24-bit fields) often ends in odd sizes so the option
write code tries to take advantage of some nop used to pad
the other TCP options.
The delivered_ecn_bytes pairs with received_ecn_bytes similar
to how delivered_ce pairs with received_ce. In contrast to
ACE field, however, the option is not always available to update
delivered_ecn_bytes. For ACK w/o AccECN option, the delivered
bytes calculated based on the cumulative ACK+SACK information
are assigned to one of the counters using an estimation
heuristic to select the most likely ECN byte counter. Any
estimation error is corrected when the next AccECN option
arrives. It may occur that the heuristic gets too confused
when there are enough different byte counter deltas between
ACKs with the AccECN option in which case the heuristic just
gives up on updating the counters for a while.
tcp_ecn_option sysctl can be used to select option sending
mode for AccECN: TCP_ECN_OPTION_DISABLED, TCP_ECN_OPTION_MINIMUM,
and TCP_ECN_OPTION_FULL.
This patch increases the size of tcp_info struct, as there is
no existing holes for new u32 variables. Below are the pahole
outcomes before and after this patch:
[BEFORE THIS PATCH]
struct tcp_info {
[...]
__u32 tcpi_total_rto_time; /* 244 4 */
/* size: 248, cachelines: 4, members: 61 */

group for new u8 members, but adds a 4-byte hole in tcp_sock_write_rx
group after the new u32 delivered_ecn_bytes[3] member. Therefore, the

These three byte counters track IP ECN field payload byte sums for
all arriving (acceptable) packets for ECT0, ECT1, and CE. The
AccECN option (added by a later patch in the series) echoes these
counters back to sender side; therefore, it is placed within the
group of tcp_sock_write_txrx.
Below are the pahole outcomes before and after this patch, in which
the group size of tcp_sock_write_txrx is increased from 95 + 4 to
107 + 4 and an extra 4-byte hole is created but will be exploited

Accurate ECN negotiation parts based on the specification:
https://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-ietf-tcpm-accurate-ecn-28.txt
Accurate ECN is negotiated using ECE, CWR and AE flags in the
TCP header. TCP falls back into using RFC3168 ECN if one of the
ends supports only RFC3168-style ECN.
The AccECN negotiation includes reflecting IP ECN field value
seen in SYN and SYNACK back using the same bits as negotiation
to allow responding to SYN CE marks and to detect ECN field
mangling. CE marks should not occur currently because SYN=1
segments are sent with Non-ECT in IP ECN field (but proposal
exists to remove this restriction).
Reflecting SYN IP ECN field in SYNACK is relatively simple.
Reflecting SYNACK IP ECN field in the final/third ACK of
the handshake is more challenging. Linux TCP code is not well
prepared for using the final/third ACK a signalling channel
which makes things somewhat complicated here.
tcp_ecn sysctl can be used to select the highest ECN variant
(Accurate ECN, ECN, No ECN) that is attemped to be negotiated and
requested for incoming connection and outgoing connection:
TCP_ECN_IN_NOECN_OUT_NOECN, TCP_ECN_IN_ECN_OUT_ECN,
TCP_ECN_IN_ECN_OUT_NOECN, TCP_ECN_IN_ACCECN_OUT_ACCECN,
TCP_ECN_IN_ACCECN_OUT_ECN, and TCP_ECN_IN_ACCECN_OUT_NOECN.
After this patch, the size of tcp_request_sock remains unchanged
and no new holes are added. Below are the pahole outcomes before
and after this patch:

This change implements Accurate ECN without negotiation and
AccECN Option (that will be added by later changes). Based on
AccECN specifications:
https://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-ietf-tcpm-accurate-ecn-28.txt
Accurate ECN allows feeding back the number of CE (congestion
experienced) marks accurately to the sender in contrast to
RFC3168 ECN that can only signal one marks-seen-yes/no per RTT.
Congestion control algorithms can take advantage of the accurate
ECN information to fine-tune their congestion response to avoid
drastic rate reduction when only mild congestion is encountered.
With Accurate ECN, tp->received_ce (r.cep in AccECN spec) keeps
track of how many segments have arrived with a CE mark. Accurate
ECN uses ACE field (ECE, CWR, AE) to communicate the value back
to the sender which updates tp->delivered_ce (s.cep) based on the
feedback. This signalling channel is lossy when ACE field overflow
occurs.
Conservative strategy is selected here to deal with the ACE
overflow, however, some strategies using the AccECN option later
in the overall patchset mitigate against false overflows detected.
The ACE field values on the wire are offset by
TCP_ACCECN_CEP_INIT_OFFSET. Delivered_ce/received_ce count the
real CE marks rather than forcing all downstream users to adapt
to the wire offset.
This patch uses the first 1-byte hole and the last 4-byte hole of
the tcp_sock_write_txrx for 'received_ce_pending' and 'received_ce'.
Also, the group size of tcp_sock_write_txrx is increased from
91 + 4 to 95 + 4 due to the new u32 received_ce member. Below are
the trimmed pahole outcomes before and after this patch.

Some devices support both symmetric (same value for all PFs) and
asymmetric, while others only support symmetric configuration. This
implementation prefers asymmetric, since it is closer to the devlink
model (per function settings), but falls back to symmetric when needed.
Example usage:
devlink dev param set pci/0000:01:00.0 name total_vfs value <u16> cmode permanent
devlink dev reload pci/0000:01:00.0 action fw_activate
echo 1 >/sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:01:00.0/remove

Selects which algorithm should be used by the NIC in order to decide rate of
CQE compression dependeng on PCIe bus conditions.
Supported values:
1) balanced, merges fewer CQEs, resulting in a moderate compression ratio
but maintaining a balance between bandwidth savings and performance
2) aggressive, merges more CQEs into a single entry, achieving a higher
compression rate and maximizing performance, particularly under high
traffic loads.

Currently the ADD_ADDR option is retransmitted with a fixed timeout. This
patch makes the retransmission timeout adaptive by using the maximum RTO
among all the subflows, while still capping it at the configured maximum
value (add_addr_timeout_max). This improves responsiveness when
establishing new subflows.
Specifically:
1. Adds mptcp_adjust_add_addr_timeout() helper to compute the adaptive
timeout.
2. Uses maximum subflow RTO (icsk_rto) when available.
3. Applies exponential backoff based on retransmission count.
4. Maintains fallback to configured max timeout when no RTO data exists.
This slightly changes the behaviour of the MPTCP "add_addr_timeout"
sysctl knob to be used as a maximum instead of a fixed value. But this
is seen as an improvement: the ADD_ADDR might be sent quicker than
before to improve the overall MPTCP connection. Also, the default
value is set to 2 min, which was already way too long, and caused the
ADD_ADDR not to be retransmitted for connections shorter than 2 minutes.

Add a new ad_select policy 'port_priority' that uses the per-port
actor priority values (set via ad_actor_port_prio) to determine
aggregator selection.
This allows administrators to influence which ports are preferred
for aggregation by assigning different priority values, providing
more flexible load balancing control in LACP configurations.

Introduce a new netlink attribute 'actor_port_prio' to allow setting
the LACP actor port priority on a per-slave basis. This extends the
existing bonding infrastructure to support more granular control over
LACP negotiations.
The priority value is embedded in LACPDU packets and will be used by
subsequent patches to influence aggregator selection policies.

Remove the implementation of use_carrier, the link monitoring
method that utilizes ethtool or ioctl to determine the link state of an
interface in a bond. Bonding will always behaves as if use_carrier=1,
which relies on netif_carrier_ok() to determine the link state of
interfaces.
To avoid acquiring RTNL many times per second, bonding inspects
link state under RCU, but not under RTNL. However, ethtool
implementations in drivers may sleep, and therefore this strategy is
unsuitable for use with calls into driver ethtool functions.
The use_carrier option was introduced in 2003, to provide
backwards compatibility for network device drivers that did not support
the then-new netif_carrier_ok/on/off system. Device drivers are now
expected to support netif_carrier_*, and the use_carrier backwards
compatibility logic is no longer necessary.
The option itself remains, but when queried always returns 1,
and may only be set to 1.

Enable configuration of the burst period — a time window starting
from the first error recovery, during which the reporter allows
recovery attempts for each reported error.
This feature is helpful when a single underlying issue causes multiple
errors, as it delays the start of the grace period to allow sufficient
time for recovering all related errors. For example, if multiple TX
queues time out simultaneously, a sufficient burst period could allow
all affected TX queues to be recovered within that window. Without this
period, only the first TX queue that reports a timeout will undergo
recovery, while the remaining TX queues will be blocked once the grace
period begins.
Configuration example:
$ devlink health set pci/0000:00:09.0 reporter tx burst_period 500
Configuration example with ynl:
./tools/net/ynl/pyynl/cli.py \
--spec Documentation/netlink/specs/devlink.yaml \
--do health-reporter-set --json '{
"bus-name": "auxiliary",
"dev-name": "mlx5_core.eth.0",
"port-index": 65535,
"health-reporter-name": "tx",
