net: ethtool: optionally skip rtnl_lock on IOCTL path
Convert the IOCTL path similarly to how we converted Netlink.
The device lookup gets a little hairy. We could take rtnl_lock
unconditionally and drop it before calling the driver (this would
avoid the reference + liveness check). But I think being able
to make progress even if rtnl is dead-locked is quite useful.
First extra concern is handling features. List all the cmds which
modify features and always take rtnl_lock. We could fold this list
into ethtool_ioctl_needs_rtnl() but seems cleaner to keep
ethtool_ioctl_needs_rtnl() driver-related. If a driver changed
features and we were not holding rtnl_lock - warn about it.
It can only happen on buggy ops locked drivers (buggy because
they should have set appropriate "I need rtnl for op X" bit).
Second wrinkle is the PHY ID hack which drops the locks while
sleeping. Convert its static "busy" variable which used to
be protected by rtnl_lock to a field in struct ethtool_netdev_state.
This feature is about identifying an adapter or a port within
a system, so being able to blink multiple LEDs at the same
time is likely not very useful in practice. But it's the simplest
fix, we can add a mutex if someone thinks a system should only
be ID'ing one port at a time.

The notifier drops the lock before calling

netconsole: do not dequeue pooled skbs that cannot satisfy len
find_skb() falls back to np->skb_pool when the GFP_ATOMIC alloc_skb()
fails. The pool is refilled by refill_skbs(), which always allocates
buffers of MAX_SKB_SIZE (ethhdr + iphdr + udphdr + MAX_UDP_CHUNK ==
1502 bytes).
netconsole, however, computes the requested length dynamically as
total_len + np->dev->needed_tailroom
If the egress device declares a non-zero needed_tailroom (e.g. some
tunnel or hardware accelerator devices), the required length can exceed
MAX_SKB_SIZE. The pooled skb is then handed back to the caller, which
immediately performs skb_put(skb, len), trips the tail > end check, and
triggers skb_over_panic().
Leave the normal alloc_skb(len, GFP_ATOMIC) path untouched -- the slab
allocator can still satisfy oversized requests when memory is available,
so senders to devices with non-zero needed_tailroom keep working in the
common case. Only the pool fallback is gated: when alloc_skb() failed
and len exceeds the pool buffer size, skip the skb_dequeue() instead of
burning a pre-allocated skb on a request that would later trip
skb_over_panic(). Reserving pool entries for requests they can actually
satisfy also keeps the panic path, which depends on the pool being
primed, intact.
When that drop happens, emit a rate-limited net_warn() so the user
notices that netconsole is unable to push messages on the egress device.
The warn is skipped under in_nmi() for the same reason schedule_work()
is: printk machinery taken by net_warn_ratelimited() is not NMI-safe and
would risk recursing into the same nbcon console we are servicing.
MAX_SKB_SIZE / MAX_UDP_CHUNK were private to net/core/netpoll.c. Move
them to include/linux/netpoll.h so netconsole can reference the same
definition that refill_skbs() uses, keeping the two in sync by
construction. The header now pulls in <linux/ip.h> and <linux/udp.h>

netconsole: do not schedule skb pool refill from NMI
When alloc_skb() fails in find_skb(), the fallback path dequeues an skb
from np->skb_pool and unconditionally calls schedule_work() to top the
pool back up. schedule_work() ends up taking the workqueue pool locks,
which are not NMI-safe.
netconsole_write() is registered as the nbcon write_atomic callback and
is explicitly marked CON_NBCON_ATOMIC_UNSAFE, meaning it is invoked from
emergency/panic contexts including NMIs. If the NMI interrupts a thread
already holding the workqueue pool lock, calling schedule_work()
self-deadlocks and the panic message that was being printed is lost.
Introduce netcons_skb_pop() to fold the pool dequeue and the refill
request into a single helper. The helper skips schedule_work() when
called from NMI context; the pool is best-effort, so the refill is simply
deferred to the next non-NMI find_skb() call that exhausts alloc_skb()
and hits the fallback again. This keeps the fast path untouched and the
locking rules around the fallback pool documented in one place.
Note this only removes the schedule_work() hazard from the NMI path. The
allocation itself is still not fully NMI-safe: the alloc_skb(GFP_ATOMIC)
attempted first may take slab locks, and the skb_dequeue() fallback takes
np->skb_pool.lock, so either can deadlock if the NMI interrupts a holder
of those locks. Closing those windows requires an NMI-safe (lockless) skb
pool and is left to a follow-up; this patch addresses the schedule_work()
deadlock, which is both the most likely and the easiest to trigger.

selftests: drv-net: gro: signal over-coalescing more reliably
GRO test is very timing-sensitive, packets may be delayed

This makes perfect sense for positive cases, in which we want
to see coalescing. Negative test cases, which modify headers
and expect no coalescing should have opposite treatment.
We should really try 6 times and make sure that each time
the test failed. This would, however, require that we annotate

Let's start with a simpler improvement. Do not allow
retries if we detected over-coalescing. Previously the negative
case would have to get lucky at least once in 6 tries to pass.
Now the first failure breaks the retry loop.
For background - NICs tend to ignore the contents of the TCP

Merge branch 'tls-receive-path-fixes-and-clean-ups'
Chuck Lever says:
====================
tls: receive-path fixes and clean-ups
I'd like to encourage in-kernel kTLS consumers (NFSD, NVMe/TCP) to
coalesce on the use of read_sock. While auditing read_sock for that
purpose, Hannes and Sabrina flagged a few rough edges in the receive
paths.
This series is a set of clean-ups, not a performance series. Async
batch decryption and its submit/deliver scaffolding were dropped
during previous review: async_capable is always false for TLS 1.3,
the version NFSD and NVMe/TCP both require, so async-related
improvements were unreachable for the in-kernel consumers this
work targets.
A subsequent series will introduce infrastructure to support
KeyUpdate for in-kernel kTLS consumers, which need to handle TLS
Alert messages that trigger a tlshd upcall.

tls: Flush backlog before waiting for a new record
While lock_sock is held, incoming TCP segments land on
sk->sk_backlog rather than sk->sk_receive_queue.
tls_rx_rec_wait() inspects only sk_receive_queue, so backlog
data remains invisible. For non-blocking callers (read_sock,
and recvmsg or splice_read with MSG_DONTWAIT) this causes a
spurious -EAGAIN. For blocking callers it forces an
unnecessary sleep/wakeup cycle.
Flush the backlog inside tls_rx_rec_wait() before checking
sk_receive_queue so the strparser can parse newly-arrived
segments immediately. On the next loop iteration
tls_read_flush_backlog() may redundantly flush, but this
path is cold and the cost is negligible.
Backlog processing can run tcp_reset(), which calls
tcp_done_with_error() to set sk->sk_err = ECONNRESET and then
tcp_done() to set sk->sk_shutdown = SHUTDOWN_MASK. The pre-existing
top-of-loop sk_err check already ran before the flush, so the
freshly-set error would be masked by the next-line sk_shutdown test
returning 0 (EOF). Re-check sk_err immediately before the sk_shutdown
test so a connection abort surfaces as -ECONNRESET rather than a clean
EOF.
Commit
f508262ae9f2 ("tls: Preserve sk_err across recvmsg() when
data has been copied") gave the top-of-loop sk_err check a
has_copied split. The recheck applies the same handling: when the
caller has already copied bytes, sk_err is reported but preserved
so the error surfaces on the next call; otherwise sock_error()
consumes it so the error is reported exactly once.

tls: Suppress spurious saved_data_ready on all receive paths
Each record release via tls_strp_msg_done() triggered
tls_strp_check_rcv(), which called tls_rx_msg_ready() and
fired saved_data_ready(). During a multi-record receive, the
first N-1 wakeups are pure overhead: the caller is already
running and will pick up subsequent records on the next loop
iteration. The recvmsg and splice_read paths share this waste.
Suppress per-record notifications and emit a single one on
reader exit. tls_rx_rec_done() releases the current record
and parses the next without announcing; tls_strp_check_rcv()
gains a bool announce parameter so callers can request the
quiet form. tls_rx_reader_release() fires the deferred
announce on exit through tls_rx_msg_maybe_announce(), an
idempotent helper that calls saved_data_ready() only when a
record is parsed and has not yet been announced.
To keep the final notification idempotent against records that
the BH or the worker has already announced, tls_strparser gains
a msg_announced bit. tls_rx_msg_maybe_announce() sets the bit
when firing saved_data_ready(); the bit is cleared whenever
the parsed record is wiped, by tls_strp_msg_consume() on
consumption or by tls_strp_msg_load() when the lower socket
loses bytes from under the parse. A second call for the same
parsed record -- as when recvmsg() satisfies the request from
ctx->rx_list without touching the strparser -- becomes a
no-op.
With no remaining callers, tls_strp_msg_done() is removed.

tls: Re-present partially-consumed records in tls_sw_read_sock()
The tls_sw_read_sock() loop releases the current skb whether
read_actor() consumed the full record or only a prefix. When
the actor takes only part of the record and leaves desc->count
non-zero, the remainder is lost: skb is neither requeued nor
freed, and the next iteration overwrites it during dequeue or
tls_rx_rec_wait().
No mainline consumer reaches this path today. The only
in-tree TLS read_sock user is nvme/tcp, whose actor
nvme_tcp_recv_skb() loops until the input length is exhausted
and returns either the full length or a negative error.
The path becomes reachable with the upcoming NFSD svcsock
receive built on read_sock_cmsg. Its data actor,
svc_tcp_recv_actor(), parses an RPC fragment stream
incrementally and returns at fragment boundaries. When a TLS
record carries the tail of one RPC fragment plus the head of
the next, the actor returns fewer bytes than offered while
leaving desc->count non-zero, and without re-presentation the
trailing fragment header vanishes.
__tcp_read_sock() handles the equivalent case for plain TCP
by leaving the unread bytes available for the next iteration
to re-present, via sequence-number re-lookup. Adopt the same
loop-level behavior: when read_actor() consumes only part of
the record, update rxm->offset and rxm->full_len and requeue
the skb to the head of rx_list so the next iteration
re-presents the unread bytes. Switch the open-ended for-loop
to "while (desc->count)" so the partial- and full-consume
arms share a single exit check and read_actor() is not
re-invoked once desc->count is exhausted.

tls: Avoid evaluating freed skb in tls_sw_read_sock() loop
tls_sw_read_sock() ends its receive loop with while (skb), but
the else branch in the body calls consume_skb(skb) before the

the object it points to reaches end-of-lifetime (C2011 6.2.4p2),
and using an indeterminate value is undefined behavior (Annex
J.2). The pointer is not dereferenced today -- the predicate
either exits the loop or skb is overwritten at the top of the
next iteration -- but any future change that adds a dereference
between consume_skb() and the predicate would silently introduce

if_ether.h: add 802.1AC, warn about GRE 0x00FE
Because LLC wasn't complicated/annoying enough, there's 2 more
"ethertypes" being used for it:
- 0x8870 is pretty "normal", it got standardized in
802.1AC-2016/Cor1-2018 for transporting LLC frames > 1500 bytes.
It simply replaces the length value (which is no longer encoded, and
must now be derived from the packet.) The actual value dates back to
2001; https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-isis-ext-eth-01
(it was used without "proper" standardization for a long time)
- 0x00fe is a doozy - actually "invalid" depending on how you look at
it; it's used in GRE (and possibly GENEVE) tunnels to transport the
IS-IS routing protocol. https://seclists.org/tcpdump/2002/q4/61 is
the best/oldest source I could find. It's inspired by the 0xfe SAP
value, a GRE packet with protocol 0x00fe is followed by a payload "as
if" it was Ethernet with "<length> 0xfe 0xfe 0x03". (Again the length
isn't encoded explicitly anymore.)
The 0x00fe value is quite close to other values the kernel is using
internally for various things (after all they "won't clash for 1500
types"). Except this one does clash, and if someone unknowingly starts
using it for something internal... we end up in a world of pain in
getting IS-IS running on GRE tunnels. Hence the "WARNING".

Commit
22e36ea9f5d7 ("inet: allow ip_valid_fib_dump_req() to

====================
SO_TXTIME improvements
FQ targets monotonic timestamps as generated by the TCP stack.
But SO_TXTIME was later added, which can send skbs with timestamps
against other clocks. It is now possible to detect these through skb
tstamp_type.
Make FQ robust by converting these timestamps for use in FQ (patch 2).
This also requires testing against out-of-bounds values. Prefer to do
this at the source, when parsing SCM_TXTIME (patch 1). But, tests in
the hot path are still needed, to handle BPF sources.
Extend the so_txtime selftest to handle this new case (patch 3).

net_sched: sch_fq: convert skb->tstamp if not monotonic
FQ currently assumes skb->tstamp holds monotonic time, as used by TCP.
Users with ns_capable CAP_NET_ADMIN can transmit skbs using SO_TXTIME
with CLOCK_MONOTONIC, CLOCK_REALTIME or CLOCK_TAI clockids as of
commit
80b14dee2bea ("net: Add a new socket option for a future
transmit time.")
More recently, skbs also gained tstamp_type to explicitly communicate
the clockid of skb->tstamp, with commit
4d25ca2d6801 ("net: Rename
mono_delivery_time to tstamp_type for scalabilty"), commit
1693c5db6ab8 ("net: Add additional bit to support clockid_t timestamp
type") and a few others.
Detect other clocks and convert to monotonic for use in FQ. That is,
convert fq_skb_cb(skb)->time_to_send. Do not convert skb->tstamp
itself. Network device clocks are more commonly synchronized to TAI.
Conversion may be imprecise due to clock adjustment (e.g., adjfreq)
between when SCM_TSTAMP is set and when it is converted in fq_enqueue.
The common codepath is short, so skew will be well below common pacing
operation. Even in edge cases, bursts (too soon) or beyond horizon
(too late) are indistinguishable from network conditions. To which
senders must be robust, as long as infrequent.
Avoid overflow due to negative offsets becoming huge when converting
from signed ktime_t to u64 time_to_send. Bound lower to mono 1 and
upper to now + q->horizon. This protects against bad input, e.g.,
from BPF programs.
Detect legacy BPF programs that program skb->tstamp without setting
skb->tstamp_type. Here tstamp_type is zero (SKB_CLOCK_REALTIME), but
the value will be unrealistic for realtime in the 21st century. Follow
existing TIME_UPTIME_SEC_MAX as bound between mono and realtime.

net: ensure SCM_TXTIME delivery time is no older than system boot
Limit input to sane values to avoid having to add tests later in the
kernel hot path, e.g., in FQ.
SCM_TXTIME timestamps are converted to signed ktime_t when assigned to
skb->tstamp. Avoid having negative values overflow into large positive
ones when again used as u64, e.g., in FQ time_to_send.
For CLOCK_MONOTONIC, only allow positive values.
For CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_TAI, allow equivalent values, i.e., no
older than the boot of the machine.
skb->tstamp zero is a special case signaling feature off. This is not
converted between clockids.
Handle the special case where the realtime clock is set so small that
real - mono is negative, however unlikely in practice.
Ideally we would also set a sane upper bound, but that would require
reading the clock, which is an expensive operation. Continue to defer
that validation to users of the data. FQ already does this.
Bound rather than return error on older timestamps. This is the
existing policy e.g., in FQ.

on possible pre-existing issues. This also includes a series to add
refcount for ct helper and timeout to deal with a corner case scenario

2) Use get_unaligned_be16() to access TCP MSS in nfnetlink_osf,
from Fernando Fernandez Mancera.
3) Use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE to access helper flags from nfnetlink_helper.
Several patches for the synproxy infrastructure, from Fernando
Fernandez Mancera:
4) Drop packet if TCP timestamp adjustment fails.
5) Continue parsing of TCP timestamp to deal with possible duplicates.
6) Use {get,put}_unaligned_be32() to acess the TCP timestamp.
7) Hold ct->lock to initialize nf_ct_seqadj_init().
Updates for the ct timeout infrastructure, to deal with a corner case
for unconfirmed conntracks flying to nfqueue:
8) Add a refcount to track ct timeout policy use by ct extension,
release the timeout until the last ct extension drops the refcnt
on it.
Similar update for the ct helper infrastructure:
9) Dynamic allocation of ct helpers, as a preparation for adding
refcount to track ct extension use.
10) Move destroy_sibling_or_exp() to nf_conntrack_proto_gre, so
pptp conntrack helper module removal does not make this code
unreachable via the helper->destroy callback. This is another
dependency for the new refcount coming in this series.
11) Add a refcount to track use of it from the ct extension, then
ct helper and timeout is reachable to the connection until
it goes away.
12) Remove the genid infrastructure in ct extensions. The primary
goal was to detect that a ct extension such as ct timeout and
ct helper went stale for unconfirmed conntrack, either because
object or module was removed. This deactivates all ct extensions
though for this unconfirmed conntrack.
13) Call nf_ct_gre_keymap_destroy() if this is a master conntrack
with a pptp helper only.
sashiko.dev reports one more relevant issue when unsetting the helper
via ctnetlink that I will address in a follow up patch.
Then, two more assorted updates:

while at it. From David Carlier.

net: airoha: Support multiple LAN/WAN interfaces for hw MAC address configuration
The EN7581 and AN7583 SoCs provide registers to configure hardware LAN/WAN
MAC addresses. These registers are used during FE hw acceleration to
determine whether received traffic is destined to this host (L3 traffic)
or should be switched to another device (L2 traffic).
The SoC hardware design assumes all interfaces configured as LAN (or WAN)
share the MAC address MSBs, which are programmed into the
REG_FE_{LAN,WAN}_MAC_H register. The LSBs of 'local' mac addresses can be
expressed as a range via the REG_FE_MAC_LMIN and REG_FE_MAC_LMAX
registers. In order to properly accelerate the traffic, FE module requires
the user to configure the REG_FE_{LAN,WAN}_MAC_H register respecting this
limitation. Please note a misconfiguration in REG_FE_{LAN,WAN}_MAC_H
will still allow the user to log into the device for debugging.
Previously, only a single interface was considered when programming these
registers. Extend the logic to derive the correct minimum and maximum
values for REG_FE_MAC_LMIN/REG_FE_MAC_LMAX when two or more interfaces are
configured as LAN or WAN. Since this functionality was not available
before this series, no regression is introduced.

only needed for the hardware internal background PHY polling engine
but it is essential for access to the PHYs during probing.
Depending on the SoC type there exist two different register arrays
- Bus mapping registers (RTL930x, RTL931x) define to which bus the port
is attached. E.g. [1]
- Address mapping registers (RTL838x, RTL930x, RTL931x) define to which
address of the bus the port is attached. E.g. [2]
Relocate the topology setup and make it generic. For this
- Define device-specific bus_base/addr_base attributes that give the
register base address where the mapping lives. In case one or both are
not given the SoC does not support this specific type of mapping.
- Create a helper otto_emdio_setup_topology() that writes the detected
topology to the registers.
- Call this helper prior to otto_emdio_probe_one().
- Remove unneeded code from otto_emdio_9300_mdiobus_init().
- Due to the added prefixes, increase define indentation
Subtle change: The old coding used regmap_bulk_write and silently wrote
bus=0/address=0 to mapping registers for ports that are out of scope.

hsr: broadcast netlink notifications in the device's net namespace
The HSR generic netlink family sets .netnsok = true. HSR devices can
live in network namespaces other than init_net.
Two async notifiers broadcast events with genlmsg_multicast(). They
are hsr_nl_ringerror() and hsr_nl_nodedown(). That helper delivers
only on the default genl socket in init_net. So the events always land
in init_net. The network namespace of the device does not matter.
This has two effects. A listener in the device's own namespace never
sees its own ring error and node down events. A privileged listener in
init_net receives events from HSR devices in other namespaces. The
payload carries the peer node MAC (HSR_A_NODE_ADDR) and the slave port
ifindex (HSR_A_IFINDEX).
Switch both callers to genlmsg_multicast_netns(). Other families with
.netnsok = true already do this. Examples are gtp, ovpn, team,
batman-adv, netdev-genl, ethtool and handshake.
hsr_nl_ringerror() already has the slave port. It uses
dev_net(port->dev). hsr_nl_nodedown() takes the namespace from the
master port via hsr_port_get_hsr().

Merge branch 'bridge-prepare-lockless-br_port_fill_attrs-i'
Eric Dumazet says:
====================
bridge: prepare lockless br_port_fill_attrs() (I)
medium-term goal is to allow "ip link show" dump commands to run without RTNL.
This round of patches adds/fixes some lockess accesses in bridge.
This is not complete, more patches will come later.
Ultimately all changes to p->flags should use set_bit()/clear_bit().
I repeat (AI agents might read this cover ?):
Many p->flags accesses are racy, and will hopefully be fixed in a
future series.

bridge: read p->flags once in br_port_fill_attrs()
We might run br_port_fill_attrs() locklessly in the future.
