bpf: Clean up sockmap related Kconfigs

2025-06-27T10:04:09+00:00

[ Upstream commit 887596095ec2a9ea39ffcf98f27bf2e77c5eb512 ] As suggested by John, clean up sockmap related Kconfigs: Reduce the scope of CONFIG_BPF_STREAM_PARSER down to TCP stream parser, to reflect its name. Make the rest sockmap code simply depend on CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL and CONFIG_INET, the latter is still needed at this point because of TCP/UDP proto update. And leave CONFIG_NET_SOCK_MSG untouched, as it is used by non-sockmap cases.

Remove DECnet support from kernel

2023-06-21T13:45:38+00:00

commit 1202cdd665315c525b5237e96e0bedc76d7e754f upstream. DECnet is an obsolete network protocol that receives more attention from kernel janitors than users. It belongs in computer protocol history museum not in Linux kernel. It has been "Orphaned" in kernel since 2010. The iproute2 support for DECnet was dropped in 5.0 release. The documentation link on Sourceforge says it is abandoned there as well. Leave the UAPI alone to keep userspace programs compiling. This means that there is still an empty neighbour table for AF_DECNET. The table of /proc/sys/net entries was updated to match current directories and reformatted to be alphabetical.

drop_monitor: Convert to using devlink tracepoint

2020-10-01T01:01:26+00:00

Convert drop monitor to use the recently introduced 'devlink_trap_report' tracepoint instead of having devlink call into drop monitor. This is both consistent with software originated drops ('kfree_skb' tracepoint) and also allows drop monitor to be built as a module and still report hardware originated drops.

net: ethtool: Remove PHYLIB direct dependency

2020-07-07T22:41:05+00:00

Now that we have introduced ethtool_phy_ops and the PHY library dynamically registers its operations with that function pointer, we can remove the direct PHYLIB dependency in favor of using dynamic operations. Signed-off-by: Florian Fainelli Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

treewide: replace '---help---' in Kconfig files with 'help'

2020-06-13T16:57:21+00:00

Since commit 84af7a6194e4 ("checkpatch: kconfig: prefer 'help' over '---help---'"), the number of '---help---' has been gradually decreasing, but there are still more than 2400 instances. This commit finishes the conversion. While I touched the lines, I also fixed the indentation. There are a variety of indentation styles found. a) 4 spaces + '---help---' b) 7 spaces + '---help---' c) 8 spaces + '---help---' d) 1 space + 1 tab + '---help---' e) 1 tab + '---help---' (correct indentation) f) 1 tab + 1 space + '---help---' g) 1 tab + 2 spaces + '---help---' In order to convert all of them to 1 tab + 'help', I ran the following commend: $ find . -name 'Kconfig*' | xargs sed -i 's/^[[:space:]]*---help---/\thelp/' Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada

net: ethtool: netlink: Add support for triggering a cable test

Add new ethtool netlink calls to trigger the starting of a PHY cable test. Add Kconfig'ury to ETHTOOL_NETLINK so that PHYLIB is not a module when ETHTOOL_NETLINK is builtin, which would result in kernel linking errors. v2: Remove unwanted white space change Remove ethnl_cable_test_act_ops and use doit handler Rename cable_test_set_policy cable_test_act_policy Remove ETHTOOL_MSG_CABLE_TEST_ACT_REPLY v3: Remove ETHTOOL_MSG_CABLE_TEST_ACT_REPLY from documentation Remove unused cable_test_get_policy Add Reviewed-by tags v4: Remove unwanted blank line Signed-off-by: Andrew Lunn Reviewed-by: Michal Kubecek Reviewed-by: Florian Fainelli Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski

net: Fix CONFIG_NET_CLS_ACT=n and CONFIG_NFT_FWD_NETDEV={y, m} build

net/netfilter/nft_fwd_netdev.c: In function ‘nft_fwd_netdev_eval’: net/netfilter/nft_fwd_netdev.c:32:10: error: ‘struct sk_buff’ has no member named ‘tc_redirected’ pkt->skb->tc_redirected = 1; ^~ net/netfilter/nft_fwd_netdev.c:33:10: error: ‘struct sk_buff’ has no member named ‘tc_from_ingress’ pkt->skb->tc_from_ingress = 1; ^~ To avoid a direct dependency with tc actions from netfilter, wrap the redirect bits around CONFIG_NET_REDIRECT and move helpers to include/linux/skbuff.h. Turn on this toggle from the ifb driver, the only existing client of these bits in the tree. This patch adds skb_set_redirected() that sets on the redirected bit on the skbuff, it specifies if the packet was redirect from ingress and resets the timestamp (timestamp reset was originally missing in the netfilter bugfix).

net: disable BRIDGE_NETFILTER by default

2020-02-20T23:02:02+00:00

The description says 'If unsure, say N.' but the module is built as M by default (once the dependencies are satisfied). When the module is selected (Y or M), it enables NETFILTER_FAMILY_BRIDGE and SKB_EXTENSIONS which alter kernel internal structures. We (Android Studio Emulator) currently do not use this module and think this it is more consistent to have it disabled by default as opposite to disabling it explicitly to prevent enabling NETFILTER_FAMILY_BRIDGE and SKB_EXTENSIONS.
