Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
 "Core &amp; protocols:

   - Wrap datapath globals into net_aligned_data, to avoid false sharing

   - Preserve MSG_ZEROCOPY in forwarding (e.g. out of a container)

   - Add SO_INQ and SCM_INQ support to AF_UNIX

   - Add SIOCINQ support to AF_VSOCK

   - Add TCP_MAXSEG sockopt to MPTCP

   - Add IPv6 force_forwarding sysctl to enable forwarding per interface

   - Make TCP validation of whether packet fully fits in the receive
     window and the rcv_buf more strict. With increased use of HW
     aggregation a single "packet" can be multiple 100s of kB

   - Add MSG_MORE flag to optimize large TCP transmissions via sockmap,
     improves latency up to 33% for sockmap users

   - Convert TCP send queue handling from tasklet to BH workque

   - Improve BPF iteration over TCP sockets to see each socket exactly
     once

   - Remove obsolete and unused TCP RFC3517/RFC6675 loss recovery code

   - Support enabling kernel threads for NAPI processing on per-NAPI
     instance basis rather than a whole device. Fully stop the kernel
     NAPI thread when threaded NAPI gets disabled. Previously thread
     would stick around until ifdown due to tricky synchronization

   - Allow multicast routing to take effect on locally-generated packets

   - Add output interface argument for End.X in segment routing

   - MCTP: add support for gateway routing, improve bind() handling

   - Don't require rtnl_lock when fetching an IPv6 neighbor over Netlink

   - Add a new neighbor flag ("extern_valid"), which cedes refresh
     responsibilities to userspace. This is needed for EVPN multi-homing
     where a neighbor entry for a multi-homed host needs to be synced
     across all the VTEPs among which the host is multi-homed

   - Support NUD_PERMANENT for proxy neighbor entries

   - Add a new queuing discipline for IETF RFC9332 DualQ Coupled AQM

   - Add sequence numbers to netconsole messages. Unregister
     netconsole's console when all net targets are removed. Code
     refactoring. Add a number of selftests

   - Align IPSec inbound SA lookup to RFC 4301. Only SPI and protocol
     should be used for an inbound SA lookup

   - Support inspecting ref_tracker state via DebugFS

   - Don't force bonding advertisement frames tx to ~333 ms boundaries.
     Add broadcast_neighbor option to send ARP/ND on all bonded links

   - Allow providing upcall pid for the 'execute' command in openvswitch

   - Remove DCCP support from Netfilter's conntrack

   - Disallow multiple packet duplications in the queuing layer

   - Prevent use of deprecated iptables code on PREEMPT_RT

  Driver API:

   - Support RSS and hashing configuration over ethtool Netlink

   - Add dedicated ethtool callbacks for getting and setting hashing
     fields

   - Add support for power budget evaluation strategy in PSE /
     Power-over-Ethernet. Generate Netlink events for overcurrent etc

   - Support DPLL phase offset monitoring across all device inputs.
     Support providing clock reference and SYNC over separate DPLL
     inputs

   - Support traffic classes in devlink rate API for bandwidth
     management

   - Remove rtnl_lock dependency from UDP tunnel port configuration

  Device drivers:

   - Add a new Broadcom driver for 800G Ethernet (bnge)

Pull s390 updates from Alexander Gordeev:

 - Standardize on the __ASSEMBLER__ macro that is provided by GCC and
   Clang compilers and replace __ASSEMBLY__ with __ASSEMBLER__ in both
   uapi and non-uapi headers

 - Explicitly include &lt;linux/export.h&gt; in architecture and driver files
   which contain an EXPORT_SYMBOL() and remove the include from the
   files which do not contain the EXPORT_SYMBOL()

 - Use the full title of "z/Architecture Principles of Operation" manual
   and the name of a section where facility bits are listed

 - Use -D__DISABLE_EXPORTS for files in arch/s390/boot to avoid
   unnecessary slowing down of the build and confusing external kABI
   tools that process symtypes data

 - Print additional unrecoverable machine check information to make the
   root cause analysis easier

 - Move cmpxchg_user_key() handling to uaccess library code, since the
   generated code is large anyway and there is no benefit if it is
   inlined

 - Fix a problem when cmpxchg_user_key() is executing a code with a
   non-default key: if a system is IPL-ed with "LOAD NORMAL", and the
   previous system used storage keys where the fetch-protection bit was
   set for some pages, and the cmpxchg_user_key() is located within such
   page, a protection exception happens

 - Either the external call or emergency signal order is used to send an
   IPI to a remote CPU. Use the external order only, since it is at
   least as good and sometimes even better, than the emergency signal

 - In case of an early crash the early program check handler prints more
   or less random value of the last breaking event address, since it is
   not initialized properly. Copy the last breaking event address from
   the lowcore to pt_regs to address this

 - During STP synchronization check udelay() can not be used, since the
   first CPU modifies tod_clock_base and get_tod_clock_monotonic() might
   return a non-monotonic time. Instead, busy-loop on other CPUs, while
   the the first CPU actually handles the synchronization operation

 - When debugging the early kernel boot using QEMU with the -S flag and
   GDB attached, skip the decompressor and start directly in kernel

 - Rename PAI Crypto event 4210 according to z16 and z17 "z/Architecture
   Principles of Operation" manual

 - Remove the in-kernel time steering support in favour of the new s390
   PTP driver, which allows the kernel clock steered more precisely

 - Remove a possible false-positive warning in pte_free_defer(), which
   could be triggered in a valid case KVM guest process is initializing

The s390x ISM device data sheet clearly states that only one
request-response sequence is allowable per ISM function at any point in
time.  Unfortunately as of today the s390/ism driver in Linux does not
honor that requirement. This patch aims to rectify that.

This problem was discovered based on Aliaksei's bug report which states
that for certain workloads the ISM functions end up entering error state
(with PEC 2 as seen from the logs) after a while and as a consequence
connections handled by the respective function break, and for future
connection requests the ISM device is not considered -- given it is in a
dysfunctional state. During further debugging PEC 3A was observed as
well.

A kernel message like
[ 1211.244319] zpci: 061a:00:00.0: Event 0x2 reports an error for PCI function 0x61a
is a reliable indicator of the stated function entering error state
with PEC 2. Let me also point out that a kernel message like
[ 1211.244325] zpci: 061a:00:00.0: The ism driver bound to the device does not support error recovery
is a reliable indicator that the ISM function won't be auto-recovered
because the ISM driver currently lacks support for it.

On a technical level, without this synchronization, commands (inputs to
the FW) may be partially or fully overwritten (corrupted) by another CPU
trying to issue commands on the same function. There is hard evidence that
this can lead to DMB token values being used as DMB IOVAs, leading to
PEC 2 PCI events indicating invalid DMA. But this is only one of the
failure modes imaginable. In theory even completely losing one command
and executing another one twice and then trying to interpret the outputs
as if the command we intended to execute was actually executed and not
the other one is also possible.  Frankly, I don't feel confident about
providing an exhaustive list of possible consequences.

Update qeth driver to allow writing an existing value to the "hw_trap"
sysfs attribute. Attempting such a write earlier resulted in -EINVAL.
In other words, make the sysfs attribute idempotent.

After:

<title>s390/net: Remove NETIUCV device driver</title>

<id>urn:sha1:727258025b933c61e103318ec42e765a53d9b18d</id>
<content type='text'>
The netiucv driver creates TCP/IP interfaces over IUCV between Linux
guests on z/VM and other z/VM entities.

Rationale for removal:
- NETIUCV connections are only supported for compatibility with
  earlier versions and not to be used for new network setups,
  since at least Linux kernel 4.0.
- No known active users, use cases, or product dependencies
- The driver is no longer relevant for z/VM networking;
  preferred methods include:
	* Device pass-through (e.g., OSA, RoCE)
	* z/VM Virtual Switch (VSWITCH)

The IUCV mechanism itself remains supported and is actively used
via AF_IUCV, hvc_iucv, and smsg_iucv.

Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
 "Core:

   - Implement the Device Memory TCP transmit path, allowing zero-copy
     data transmission on top of TCP from e.g. GPU memory to the wire.

   - Move all the IPv6 routing tables management outside the RTNL scope,
     under its own lock and RCU. The route control path is now 3x times
     faster.

   - Convert queue related netlink ops to instance lock, reducing again
     the scope of the RTNL lock. This improves the control plane
     scalability.

   - Refactor the software crc32c implementation, removing unneeded
     abstraction layers and improving significantly the related
     micro-benchmarks.

   - Optimize the GRO engine for UDP-tunneled traffic, for a 10%
     performance improvement in related stream tests.

   - Cover more per-CPU storage with local nested BH locking; this is a
     prep work to remove the current per-CPU lock in local_bh_disable()
     on PREMPT_RT.

   - Introduce and use nlmsg_payload helper, combining buffer bounds
     verification with accessing payload carried by netlink messages.

  Netfilter:

   - Rewrite the procfs conntrack table implementation, improving
     considerably the dump performance. A lot of user-space tools still
     use this interface.

   - Implement support for wildcard netdevice in netdev basechain and
     flowtables.

   - Integrate conntrack information into nft trace infrastructure.

   - Export set count and backend name to userspace, for better
     introspection.

  BPF:

   - BPF qdisc support: BPF-qdisc can be implemented with BPF struct_ops
     programs and can be controlled in similar way to traditional qdiscs
     using the "tc qdisc" command.

   - Refactor the UDP socket iterator, addressing long standing issues
     WRT duplicate hits or missed sockets.

  Protocols:

   - Improve TCP receive buffer auto-tuning and increase the default
     upper bound for the receive buffer; overall this improves the
     single flow maximum thoughput on 200Gbs link by over 60%.

   - Add AFS GSSAPI security class to AF_RXRPC; it provides transport
     security for connections to the AFS fileserver and VL server.

   - Improve TCP multipath routing, so that the sources address always
     matches the nexthop device.

   - Introduce SO_PASSRIGHTS for AF_UNIX, to allow disabling SCM_RIGHTS,
     and thus preventing DoS caused by passing around problematic FDs.

   - Retire DCCP socket. DCCP only receives updates for bugs, and major
     distros disable it by default. Its removal allows for better
     organisation of TCP fields to reduce the number of cache lines hit
     in the fast path.

   - Extend TCP drop-reason support to cover PAWS checks.

  Driver API:

   - Reorganize PTP ioctl flag support to require an explicit opt-in for
     the drivers, avoiding the problem of drivers not rejecting new
     unsupported flags.

   - Converted several device drivers to timestamping APIs.

   - Introduce per-PHY ethtool dump helpers, improving the support for
     dump operations targeting PHYs.

  Tests and tooling:

   - Add support for classic netlink in user space C codegen, so that
     ynl-c can now read, create and modify links, routes addresses and
     qdisc layer configuration.

   - Add ynl sub-types for binary attributes, allowing ynl-c to output
     known struct instead of raw binary data, clarifying the classic
     netlink output.

   - Extend MPTCP selftests to improve the code-coverage.

   - Add tests for XDP tail adjustment in AF_XDP.

  New hardware / drivers:

   - OpenVPN virtual driver: offload OpenVPN data channels processing to
     the kernel-space, increasing the data transfer throughput WRT the
     user-space implementation.

   - Renesas glue driver for the gigabit ethernet RZ/V2H(P) SoC.

   - Broadcom asp-v3.0 ethernet driver.

   - AMD Renoir ethernet device.

<content type='text'>
Convert all strcpy() usages to strscpy() where the conversion means
just replacing strcpy() with strscpy(). strcpy() is deprecated since
it performs no bounds checking on the destination buffer.
