net: factor-out _sk_charge() helper

2025-11-25T03:49:40+00:00

Move out of __inet_accept() the code dealing charging newly accepted socket to memcg. MPTCP will soon use it to on a per subflow basis, in different contexts. No functional changes intended.

bpf: Convert cgroup sockaddr filters to use sockaddr_unsized consistently

2025-11-05T03:10:33+00:00

Update BPF cgroup sockaddr filtering infrastructure to use sockaddr_unsized consistently throughout the call chain, removing redundant explicit casts from callers. No binary changes expected.

net: Convert proto callbacks from sockaddr to sockaddr_unsized

2025-11-05T03:10:33+00:00

Convert struct proto pre_connect(), connect(), bind(), and bind_add() callback function prototypes from struct sockaddr to struct sockaddr_unsized. This does not change per-implementation use of sockaddr for passing around an arbitrarily sized sockaddr struct. Those will be addressed in future patches. Additionally removes the no longer referenced struct sockaddr from include/net/inet_common.h. No binary changes expected.

net: Convert proto_ops connect() callbacks to use sockaddr_unsized

2025-11-05T03:10:32+00:00

Update all struct proto_ops connect() callback function prototypes from "struct sockaddr *" to "struct sockaddr_unsized *" to avoid lying to the compiler about object sizes. Calls into struct proto handlers gain casts that will be removed in the struct proto conversion patch. No binary changes expected.

sctp: Use sctp_clone_sock() in sctp_do_peeloff().

2025-10-28T01:04:58+00:00

sctp_do_peeloff() calls sock_create() to allocate and initialise struct sock, inet_sock, and sctp_sock, but later sctp_copy_sock() and sctp_sock_migrate() overwrite most fields. What sctp_do_peeloff() does is more like accept(). Let's use sock_create_lite() and sctp_clone_sock().

sctp: Use sk_clone() in sctp_accept().

2025-10-28T01:04:58+00:00

sctp_accept() calls sctp_v[46]_create_accept_sk() to allocate a new socket and calls sctp_sock_migrate() to copy fields from the parent socket to the new socket. sctp_v4_create_accept_sk() allocates sk by sk_alloc(), initialises it by sock_init_data(), and copy a bunch of fields from the parent socekt by sctp_copy_sock(). sctp_sock_migrate() calls sctp_copy_descendant() to copy most fields in sctp_sock from the parent socket by memcpy(). These can be simply replaced by sk_clone(). Let's consolidate sctp_v[46]_create_accept_sk() to sctp_clone_sock() with sk_clone(). We will reuse sctp_clone_sock() for sctp_do_peeloff() and then remove sctp_copy_descendant(). Note that sock_reset_flag(newsk, SOCK_ZAPPED) is not copied to sctp_clone_sock() as sctp does not use SOCK_ZAPPED at all.

tcp: Save lock_sock() for memcg in inet_csk_accept().

2025-10-16T19:04:47+00:00

If memcg is enabled, accept() acquires lock_sock() twice for each new TCP/MPTCP socket in inet_csk_accept() and __inet_accept(). Let's move memcg operations from inet_csk_accept() to __inet_accept(). Note that SCTP somehow allocates a new socket by sk_alloc() in sk->sk_prot->accept() and clones fields manually, instead of using sk_clone_lock(). mem_cgroup_sk_alloc() is called for SCTP before __inet_accept(), so I added the protocol check in __inet_accept(), but this can be removed once SCTP uses sk_clone_lock().

net: gro: remove unnecessary df checks

2025-09-25T10:42:49+00:00

Currently, packets with fixed IDs will be merged only if their don't-fragment bit is set. This restriction is unnecessary since packets without the don't-fragment bit will be forwarded as-is even if they were merged together. The merged packets will be segmented into their original forms before being forwarded, either by GSO or by TSO. The IDs will also remain identical unless NETIF_F_TSO_MANGLEID is set, in which case the IDs can become incrementing, which is also fine. Clean up the code by removing the unnecessary don't-fragment checks.

net: gso: restore ids of outer ip headers correctly

2025-09-25T10:42:49+00:00

Currently, NETIF_F_TSO_MANGLEID indicates that the inner-most ID can be mangled. Outer IDs can always be mangled. Make GSO preserve outer IDs by default, with NETIF_F_TSO_MANGLEID allowing both inner and outer IDs to be mangled. This commit also modifies a few drivers that use SKB_GSO_FIXEDID directly.
