2025-04-16xfrm: Add explicit dev to .xdo_dev_state_{add,delete,free}Cosmin Ratiu
Previously, device driver IPSec offload implementations would fall into two categories: 1. Those that used xso.dev to determine the offload device. 2. Those that used xso.real_dev to determine the offload device. The first category didn't work with bonding while the second did. In a non-bonding setup the two pointers are the same. This commit adds explicit pointers for the offload netdevice to .xdo_dev_state_add() / .xdo_dev_state_delete() / .xdo_dev_state_free() which eliminates the confusion and allows drivers from the first category to work with bonding. xso.real_dev now becomes a private pointer managed by the bonding driver.

2025-04-15ixgbe: add support for devlink reloadJedrzej Jagielski
The E610 adapters contain an embedded chip with firmware which can be updated using devlink flash. The firmware which runs on this chip is referred to as the Embedded Management Processor firmware (EMP firmware). Activating the new firmware image currently requires that the system be rebooted. This is not ideal as rebooting the system can cause unwanted downtime. The EMP firmware itself can be reloaded by issuing a special update to the device called an Embedded Management Processor reset (EMP reset). This reset causes the device to reset and reload the EMP firmware. Implement support for devlink reload with the "fw_activate" flag. This allows user space to request the firmware be activated immediately.

2025-04-15ixgbe: add device flash update via devlinkJedrzej Jagielski
Use the pldmfw library to implement device flash update for the Intel ixgbe networking device driver specifically for E610 devices. This support uses the devlink flash update interface. Using the pldmfw library, the provided firmware file will be scanned for the three major components, "fw.undi" for the Option ROM, "fw.mgmt" for the main NVM module containing the primary device firmware, and "fw.netlist" containing the netlist module. The flash is separated into two banks, the active bank containing the running firmware, and the inactive bank which we use for update. Each module is updated in a staged process. First, the inactive bank is erased, preparing the device for update. Second, the contents of the component are copied to the inactive portion of the flash. After all components are updated, the driver signals the device to switch the active bank during the next EMP reset. With this implementation, basic flash update for the E610 hardware is supported.

2025-04-14net: convert dev->rtnl_link_state to a boolJakub Kicinski
netdevice reg_state was split into two 16 bit enums back in 2010 in commit a2835763e130 ("rtnetlink: handle rtnl_link netlink notifications manually"). Since the split the fields have been moved apart, and last year we converted reg_state to a normal u8 in commit 4d42b37def70 ("net: convert dev->reg_state to u8"). rtnl_link_state being a 16 bitfield makes no sense. Convert it to a single bool, it seems very unlikely after 15 years that we'll need more values in it. We could drop dev->rtnl_link_ops from the conditions but feels like having it there more clearly points at the reason for this hack.

2025-04-11net: Retire DCCP socket.Kuniyuki Iwashima
DCCP was orphaned in 2021 by commit 054c4610bd05 ("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 b144fcaf46d4 ("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.

Protect xdp_features with netdev->lock. This way pure readers no longer have to take rtnl_lock to access the field. This includes calling NETDEV_XDP_FEAT_CHANGE under the lock. Looks like that's fine for bonding, the only "real" listener, it's the same as ethtool feature change. In terms of normal drivers - only GVE need special consideration (other drivers don't use instance lock or don't support XDP). It calls xdp_set_features_flag() helper from gve_init_priv() which in turn is called from gve_reset_recovery() (locked), or prior to netdev registration. So switch to _locked.

Pull io_uring zero-copy receive support from Jens Axboe: "This adds support for zero-copy receive with io_uring, enabling fast bulk receive of data directly into application memory, rather than needing to copy the data out of kernel memory. While this version only supports host memory as that was the initial target, other memory types are planned as well, with notably GPU memory coming next. This work depends on some networking components which were queued up on the networking side, but have now landed in your tree. This is the work of Pavel Begunkov and David Wei. From the v14 posting: 'We configure a page pool that a driver uses to fill a hw rx queue to hand out user pages instead of kernel pages. Any data that ends up hitting this hw rx queue will thus be dma'd into userspace memory directly, without needing to be bounced through kernel memory. 'Reading' data out of a socket instead becomes a _notification_ mechanism, where the kernel tells userspace where the data is. The overall approach is similar to the devmem TCP proposal This relies on hw header/data split, flow steering and RSS to ensure packet headers remain in kernel memory and only desired flows hit a hw rx queue configured for zero copy. Configuring this is outside of the scope of this patchset. We share netdev core infra with devmem TCP. The main difference is that io_uring is used for the uAPI and the lifetime of all objects are bound to an io_uring instance. Data is 'read' using a new io_uring request type. When done, data is returned via a new shared refill queue. A zero copy page pool refills a hw rx queue from this refill queue directly. Of course, the lifetime of these data buffers are managed by io_uring rather than the networking stack, with different refcounting rules. This patchset is the first step adding basic zero copy support. We will extend this iteratively with new features e.g. dynamically allocated zero copy areas, THP support, dmabuf support, improved copy fallback, general optimisations and more' In a local setup, I was able to saturate a 200G link with a single CPU core, and at netdev conf 0x19 earlier this month, Jamal reported 188Gbit of bandwidth using a single core (no HT, including soft-irq). Safe to say the efficiency is there, as bigger links would be needed to find the per-core limit, and it's considerably more efficient and faster than the existing devmem solution" * tag 'for-6.15/io_uring-rx-zc-20250325' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux: io_uring/zcrx: add selftest case for recvzc with read limit io_uring/zcrx: add a read limit to recvzc requests io_uring: add missing IORING_MAP_OFF_ZCRX_REGION in io_uring_mmap io_uring: Rename KConfig to Kconfig io_uring/zcrx: fix leaks on failed registration io_uring/zcrx: recheck ifq on shutdown io_uring/zcrx: add selftest net: add documentation for io_uring zcrx io_uring/zcrx: add copy fallback io_uring/zcrx: throttle receive requests io_uring/zcrx: set pp memory provider for an rx queue io_uring/zcrx: add io_recvzc request io_uring/zcrx: dma-map area for the device io_uring/zcrx: implement zerocopy receive pp memory provider io_uring/zcrx: grab a net device io_uring/zcrx: add io_zcrx_area io_uring/zcrx: add interface queue and refill queue

2025-03-25net-timestamp: COMPLETION timestamp on packet tx completionPauli Virtanen
Add SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_COMPLETION, for requesting a software timestamp when hardware reports a packet completed. Completion tstamp is useful for Bluetooth, as hardware timestamps do not exist in the HCI specification except for ISO packets, and the hardware has a queue where packets may wait. In this case the software SND timestamp only reflects the kernel-side part of the total latency (usually small) and queue length (usually 0 unless HW buffers congested), whereas the completion report time is more informative of the true latency. It may also be useful in other cases where HW TX timestamps cannot be obtained and user wants to estimate an upper bound to when the TX probably happened.
