Linus Torvalds 0326074ff4 Networking changes for 6.1.
Core
 ----
 
  - Introduce and use a single page frag cache for allocating small skb
    heads, clawing back the 10-20% performance regression in UDP flood
    test from previous fixes.
 
  - Run packets which already went thru HW coalescing thru SW GRO.
    This significantly improves TCP segment coalescing and simplifies
    deployments as different workloads benefit from HW or SW GRO.
 
  - Shrink the size of the base zero-copy send structure.
 
  - Move TCP init under a new slow / sleepable version of DO_ONCE().
 
 BPF
 ---
 
  - Add BPF-specific, any-context-safe memory allocator.
 
  - Add helpers/kfuncs for PKCS#7 signature verification from BPF
    programs.
 
  - Define a new map type and related helpers for user space -> kernel
    communication over a ring buffer (BPF_MAP_TYPE_USER_RINGBUF).
 
  - Allow targeting BPF iterators to loop through resources of one
    task/thread.
 
  - Add ability to call selected destructive functions.
    Expose crash_kexec() to allow BPF to trigger a kernel dump.
    Use CAP_SYS_BOOT check on the loading process to judge permissions.
 
  - Enable BPF to collect custom hierarchical cgroup stats efficiently
    by integrating with the rstat framework.
 
  - Support struct arguments for trampoline based programs.
    Only structs with size <= 16B and x86 are supported.
 
  - Invoke cgroup/connect{4,6} programs for unprivileged ICMP ping
    sockets (instead of just TCP and UDP sockets).
 
  - Add a helper for accessing CLOCK_TAI for time sensitive network
    related programs.
 
  - Support accessing network tunnel metadata's flags.
 
  - Make TCP SYN ACK RTO tunable by BPF programs with TCP Fast Open.
 
  - Add support for writing to Netfilter's nf_conn:mark.
 
 Protocols
 ---------
 
  - WiFi: more Extremely High Throughput (EHT) and Multi-Link
    Operation (MLO) work (802.11be, WiFi 7).
 
  - vsock: improve support for SO_RCVLOWAT.
 
  - SMC: support SO_REUSEPORT.
 
  - Netlink: define and document how to use netlink in a "modern" way.
    Support reporting missing attributes via extended ACK.
 
  - IPSec: support collect metadata mode for xfrm interfaces.
 
  - TCPv6: send consistent autoflowlabel in SYN_RECV state
    and RST packets.
 
  - TCP: introduce optional per-netns connection hash table to allow
    better isolation between namespaces (opt-in, at the cost of memory
    and cache pressure).
 
  - MPTCP: support TCP_FASTOPEN_CONNECT.
 
  - Add NEXT-C-SID support in Segment Routing (SRv6) End behavior.
 
  - Adjust IP_UNICAST_IF sockopt behavior for connected UDP sockets.
 
  - Open vSwitch:
    - Allow specifying ifindex of new interfaces.
    - Allow conntrack and metering in non-initial user namespace.
 
  - TLS: support the Korean ARIA-GCM crypto algorithm.
 
  - Remove DECnet support.
 
 Driver API
 ----------
 
  - Allow selecting the conduit interface used by each port
    in DSA switches, at runtime.
 
  - Ethernet Power Sourcing Equipment and Power Device support.
 
  - Add tc-taprio support for queueMaxSDU parameter, i.e. setting
    per traffic class max frame size for time-based packet schedules.
 
  - Support PHY rate matching - adapting between differing host-side
    and link-side speeds.
 
  - Introduce QUSGMII PHY mode and 1000BASE-KX interface mode.
 
  - Validate OF (device tree) nodes for DSA shared ports; make
    phylink-related properties mandatory on DSA and CPU ports.
    Enforcing more uniformity should allow transitioning to phylink.
 
  - Require that flash component name used during update matches one
    of the components for which version is reported by info_get().
 
  - Remove "weight" argument from driver-facing NAPI API as much
    as possible. It's one of those magic knobs which seemed like
    a good idea at the time but is too indirect to use in practice.
 
  - Support offload of TLS connections with 256 bit keys.
