Linus Torvalds fcc79e1714 Networking changes for 6.13.
The most significant set of changes is the per netns RTNL. The new
 behavior is disabled by default, regression risk should be contained.
 
 Notably the new config knob PTP_1588_CLOCK_VMCLOCK will inherit its
 default value from PTP_1588_CLOCK_KVM, as the first is intended to be
 a more reliable replacement for the latter.
 
 Core
 ----
 
  - Started a very large, in-progress, effort to make the RTNL lock
    scope per network-namespace, thus reducing the lock contention
    significantly in the containerized use-case, comprising:
    - RCU-ified some relevant slices of the FIB control path
    - introduce basic per netns locking helpers
    - namespacified the IPv4 address hash table
    - remove rtnl_register{,_module}() in favour of rtnl_register_many()
    - refactor rtnl_{new,del,set}link() moving as much validation as
      possible out of RTNL lock
    - convert all phonet doit() and dumpit() handlers to RCU
    - convert IPv4 addresses manipulation to per-netns RTNL
    - convert virtual interface creation to per-netns RTNL
    the per-netns lock infra is guarded by the CONFIG_DEBUG_NET_SMALL_RTNL
    knob, disabled by default ad interim.
 
  - Introduce NAPI suspension, to efficiently switching between busy
    polling (NAPI processing suspended) and normal processing.
 
  - Migrate the IPv4 routing input, output and control path from direct
    ToS usage to DSCP macros. This is a work in progress to make ECN
    handling consistent and reliable.
 
  - Add drop reasons support to the IPv4 rotue input path, allowing
    better introspection in case of packets drop.
 
  - Make FIB seqnum lockless, dropping RTNL protection for read
    access.
 
  - Make inet{,v6} addresses hashing less predicable.
 
  - Allow providing timestamp OPT_ID via cmsg, to correlate TX packets
    and timestamps
 
 Things we sprinkled into general kernel code
 --------------------------------------------
 
  - Add small file operations for debugfs, to reduce the struct ops size.
 
  - Refactoring and optimization for the implementation of page_frag API,
    This is a preparatory work to consolidate the page_frag
    implementation.
 
 Netfilter
 ---------
 
  - Optimize set element transactions to reduce memory consumption
 
  - Extended netlink error reporting for attribute parser failure.
 
  - Make legacy xtables configs user selectable, giving users
    the option to configure iptables without enabling any other config.
 
  - Address a lot of false-positive RCU issues, pointed by recent
    CI improvements.
 
 BPF
 ---
 
  - Put xsk sockets on a struct diet and add various cleanups. Overall,
    this helps to bump performance by 12% for some workloads.
 
  - Extend BPF selftests to increase coverage of XDP features in
    combination with BPF cpumap.
 
  - Optimize and homogenize bpf_csum_diff helper for all archs and also
    add a batch of new BPF selftests for it.
 
  - Extend netkit with an option to delegate skb->{mark,priority}
    scrubbing to its BPF program.
 
  - Make the bpf_get_netns_cookie() helper available also to tc(x) BPF
    programs.
 
 Protocols
 ---------
 
  - Introduces 4-tuple hash for connected udp sockets, speeding-up
    significantly connected sockets lookup.
 
  - Add a fastpath for some TCP timers that usually expires after close,
    the socket lock contention.
 
  - Add inbound and outbound xfrm state caches to speed up state lookups.
 
  - Avoid sending MPTCP advertisements on stale subflows, reducing
    risks on loosing them.
 
  - Make neighbours table flushing more scalable, maintaining per device
    neigh lists.
 
 Driver API
 ----------
 
  - Introduce a unified interface to configure transmission H/W shaping,
    and expose it to user-space via generic-netlink.
 
  - Add support for per-NAPI config via netlink. This makes napi
    configuration persistent across queues removal and re-creation.
    Requires driver updates, currently supported drivers are:
    nVidia/Mellanox mlx4 and mlx5, Broadcom brcm and Intel ice.
 
  - Add ethtool support for writing SFP / PHY firmware blocks.
 
  - Track RSS context allocation from ethtool core.
 
  - Implement support for mirroring to DSA CPU port, via TC mirror
    offload.
 
  - Consolidate FDB updates notification, to avoid duplicates on
    device-specific entries.
 
  - Expose DPLL clock quality level to the user-space.
 
  - Support master-slave PHY config via device tree.
 
 Tests and tooling
 -----------------
 
  - forwarding: introduce deferred commands, to simplify
    the cleanup phase
