Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
"It has been a relatively busy cycle for docs, especially the build
system:
- The Perl kernel-doc script was added to 2.3.52pre1 just after the
turn of the millennium. Over the following 25 years, it accumulated
a vast amount of cruft, all in a language few people want to deal
with anymore. Mauro's Python replacement in 6.16 faithfully
reproduced all of the cruft in the hope of avoiding regressions.
Now that we have a more reasonable code base, though, we can work
on cleaning it up; many of the changes this time around are toward
that end.
- A reorganization of the ext4 docs into the usual TOC format.
- Various Chinese translations and updates.
- A new script from Mauro to help with docs-build testing.
- A new document for linked lists
- A sweep through MAINTAINERS fixing broken GitHub git:// repository
links.
...and lots of fixes and updates"

It is currently impossible to enable ipv6 forwarding on a per-interface
basis like in ipv4. To enable forwarding on an ipv6 interface we need to
enable it on all interfaces and disable it on the other interfaces using
a netfilter rule. This is especially cumbersome if you have lots of
interfaces and only want to enable forwarding on a few. According to the
sysctl docs [0] the `net.ipv6.conf.all.forwarding` enables forwarding
for all interfaces, while the interface-specific
`net.ipv6.conf.<interface>.forwarding` configures the interface
Host/Router configuration.
Introduce a new sysctl flag `force_forwarding`, which can be set on every
interface. The ip6_forwarding function will then check if the global
forwarding flag OR the force_forwarding flag is active and forward the
packet.
To preserve backwards-compatibility reset the flag (on all interfaces)
to 0 if the net.ipv6.conf.all.forwarding flag is set to 0.
Add a short selftest that checks if a packet gets forwarded with and
without `force_forwarding`.

Implement removing additional RSS contexts via Netlink.
Technically it'd be possible to shoehorn the delete operation
into ethnl_request_ops-compatible handler. The code ends
up longer than open coded version, and I think we'll need
a custom way of sending notifications at some stage (if we
allow tying the context lifetime to the netlink socket, in
the future).

Support creating contexts via Netlink. Setting flow hashing
fields on the new context is not supported at this stage,
it can be added later.
An empty indirection table is not supported. This is a carry
over from the IOCTL interface where empty indirection table
meant delete. We can repurpose empty indirection table in
Netlink but for now to avoid confusion reject it using the
policy.
Support letting user choose the ID for the new context. This was
not possible in IOCTL since the context ID field for the create
action had to be set to the ETH_RXFH_CONTEXT_ALLOC magic value.

Commit cc34acd577f1 ("docs: net: document new locking reality")
introduced netif_ vs dev_ function semantics: the former expects locked
netdev, the latter takes care of the locking. We don't strictly
follow this semantics on either side, but there are more dev_xxx handlers
now that don't fit. Rename them to netif_xxx where appropriate.
Note that one dev_set_threaded call still remains in mt76 for debugfs file.

Add support for ETHTOOL_SRXFH (setting hashing fields) in RSS_SET.
The tricky part is dealing with symmetric hashing. In netlink user
can change the hashing fields and symmetric hash in one request,
in IOCTL the two used to be set via different uAPI requests.
Since fields and hash function config are still separate driver
callbacks - changes to the two are not atomic. Keep things simple
and validate the settings against both pre- and post- change ones.
Meaning that we will reject the config request if user tries
to correct the flow fields and set input_xfrm in one request,
or disables input_xfrm and makes flow fields non-symmetric.
We can adjust it later if there's a real need. Starting simple feels
right, and potentially partially applying the settings isn't nice,
either.

Support setting RSS hash function / algo via ethtool Netlink.
Like IOCTL we don't validate that the function is within the
range known to the kernel. The drivers do a pretty good job
validating the inputs, and the IDs are technically "dynamically
queried" rather than part of uAPI.
Only change should be that in Netlink we don't support user
explicitly passing ETH_RSS_HASH_NO_CHANGE (0), if no change
is requested the attribute should be absent.
The ETH_RSS_HASH_NO_CHANGE is retained in driver-facing
API for consistency (not that I see a strong reason for it).

Add initial support for RSS_SET, for now only operations on
the indirection table are supported.
Unlike the ioctl don't check if at least one parameter is
being changed. This is how other ethtool-nl ops behave,
so pick the ethtool-nl consistency vs copying ioctl behavior.
There are two special cases here:
1) resetting the table to defaults;
2) support for tables of different size.
For (1) I use an empty Netlink attribute (array of size 0).
(2) may require some background. AFAICT a lot of modern devices
allow allocating RSS tables of different sizes. mlx5 can upsize
its tables, bnxt has some "table size calculation", and Intel
folks asked about RSS table sizing in context of resource allocation
in the past. The ethtool IOCTL API has a concept of table size,
but right now the user is expected to provide a table exactly
the size the device requests. Some drivers may change the table
size at runtime (in response to queue count changes) but the
user is not in control of this. What's not great is that all
RSS contexts share the same table size. For example a device
with 128 queues enabled, 16 RSS contexts 8 queues in each will
likely have 256 entry tables for each of the 16 contexts,
while 32 would be more than enough given each context only has
8 queues. To address this the Netlink API should avoid enforcing
table size at the uAPI level, and should allow the user to express
the min table size they expect.
To fully solve (2) we will need more driver plumbing but
at the uAPI level this patch allows the user to specify
a table size smaller than what the device advertises. The device
table size must be a multiple of the user requested table size.
We then replicate the user-provided table to fill the full device
size table. This addresses the "allow the user to express the min
table size" objective, while not enforcing any fixed size.
From Netlink perspective .get_rxfh_indir_size() is now de facto
the "max" table size supported by the device.
We may choose to support table replication in ethtool, too,
when we actually plumb this thru the device APIs.
Initially I was considering moving full pattern generation
to the kernel (which queues to use, at which frequency and
what min sequence length). I don't think this complexity
would buy us much and most if not all devices have pow-2
table sizes, which simplifies the replication a lot.

Implement the PCIe Congestion Event notifier which triggers a work item
to query the PCIe Congestion Event object. The result of the congestion
state is reflected in the new ethtool stats:
* pci_bw_inbound_high: the device has crossed the high threshold for
inbound PCIe traffic.
* pci_bw_inbound_low: the device has crossed the low threshold for
inbound PCIe traffic
* pci_bw_outbound_high: the device has crossed the high threshold for
outbound PCIe traffic.
* pci_bw_outbound_low: the device has crossed the low threshold for
outbound PCIe traffic
The high and low thresholds are currently configured at 90% and 75%.
These are hysteresis thresholds which help to check if the
PCI bus on the device side is in a congested state.
If low + 1 = high then the device is in a congested state. If low == high
then the device is not in a congested state.
The counters are also documented.
A follow-up patch will make the thresholds configurable.

A net device has a threaded sysctl that can be used to enable threaded
NAPI polling on all of the NAPI contexts under that device. Allow
enabling threaded NAPI polling at individual NAPI level using netlink.
Extend the netlink operation `napi-set` and allow setting the threaded
attribute of a NAPI. This will enable the threaded polling on a NAPI
context.
Add a test in `nl_netdev.py` that verifies various cases of threaded
NAPI being set at NAPI and at device level.

Implement ETHTOOL_GRXFH over Netlink. The number of flow types is
reasonable (around 20) so report all of them at once for simplicity.
Do not maintain the flow ID mapping with ioctl at the uAPI level.
This gives us a chance to clean up the confusion that come from
RxNFC vs RxFH (flow direction vs hashing) in the ioctl.
Try to align with the names used in ethtool CLI, they seem to have
stood the test of time just fine. One annoyance is that we still
call L4 ports the weird names, but I guess they also apply to IPSec
(where they cover the SPI) so it is what it is.

This patch provides a setsockopt method to let applications leverage to
adjust how many descs to be handled at most in one send syscall. It
mitigates the situation where the default value (32) that is too small
leads to higher frequency of triggering send syscall.
Considering the prosperity/complexity the applications have, there is no
absolutely ideal suggestion fitting all cases. So keep 32 as its default
value like before.
The patch does the following things:
- Add XDP_MAX_TX_SKB_BUDGET socket option.
- Set max_tx_budget to 32 by default in the initialization phase as a
per-socket granular control.
- Set the range of max_tx_budget as [32, xs->tx->nentries].
The idea behind this comes out of real workloads in production. We use a
user-level stack with xsk support to accelerate sending packets and
minimize triggering syscalls. When the packets are aggregated, it's not
hard to hit the upper bound (namely, 32). The moment user-space stack
fetches the -EAGAIN error number passed from sendto(), it will loop to try
again until all the expected descs from tx ring are sent out to the driver.
Enlarging the XDP_MAX_TX_SKB_BUDGET value contributes to less frequency of
sendto() and higher throughput/PPS.
Here is what I did in production, along with some numbers as follows:
For one application I saw lately, I suggested using 128 as max_tx_budget
because I saw two limitations without changing any default configuration:
1) XDP_MAX_TX_SKB_BUDGET, 2) socket sndbuf which is 212992 decided by
net.core.wmem_default. As to XDP_MAX_TX_SKB_BUDGET, the scenario behind
this was I counted how many descs are transmitted to the driver at one
time of sendto() based on [1] patch and then I calculated the
possibility of hitting the upper bound. Finally I chose 128 as a
suitable value because 1) it covers most of the cases, 2) a higher
number would not bring evident results. After twisting the parameters,
a stable improvement of around 4% for both PPS and throughput and less
resources consumption were found to be observed by strace -c -p xxx:
1) %time was decreased by 7.8%
2) error counter was decreased from 18367 to 572

Some Broadcom PHYs are capable to operate in simplified MII mode,
without TXER, RXER, CRS and COL signals as defined for the MII.
The MII-Lite mode can be used on most Ethernet controllers with full
MII interface by just leaving the input signals (RXER, CRS, COL)
inactive. The absence of COL signal makes half-duplex link modes
impossible but does not interfere with BroadR-Reach link modes on
Broadcom PHYs, because they are all full-duplex only.
Add MII-Lite interface mode, especially for Broadcom two-wire PHYs.

Microchip Azurite ZL3073x represents chip family providing DPLL
and optionally PHC (PTP) functionality. The chips can be connected
be connected over I2C or SPI bus.
They have the following characteristics:
* up to 5 separate DPLL units (channels)
* 5 synthesizers
* 10 input pins (references)
* 10 outputs
* 20 output pins (output pin pair shares one output)
* Each reference and output can operate in either differential or
single-ended mode (differential mode uses 2 pins)
* Each output is connected to one of the synthesizers
* Each synthesizer is driven by one of the DPLL unit
The device uses 7-bit addresses and 8-bits values. It exposes 8-, 16-,
32- and 48-bits registers in address range <0x000,0x77F>. Due to 7bit
addressing, the range is organized into pages of 128 bytes, with each
page containing a page selector register at address 0x7F.
For reading/writing multi-byte registers, the device supports bulk
transfers.
Add basic functionality to access device registers, probe functionality
both I2C and SPI cases and add devlink support to provide info and
to set clock ID parameter.

In LACP mode with broadcast_neighbor enabled, after LACP protocol
recovery, the port can transmit packets. However, if the bond port
doesn't send gratuitous ARP/ND packets to the switch, the switch
won't return packets through the current interface. This causes
traffic imbalance. To resolve this issue, when LACP protocol recovers,
send ARP/ND packets if broadcast_neighbor is enabled.

Stacking technology is a type of technology used to expand ports on
Ethernet switches. It is widely used as a common access method in
large-scale Internet data center architectures. Years of practice
have proved that stacking technology has advantages and disadvantages
in high-reliability network architecture scenarios. For instance,
in stacking networking arch, conventional switch system upgrades
require multiple stacked devices to restart at the same time.
Therefore, it is inevitable that the business will be interrupted
for a while. It is for this reason that "no-stacking" in data centers
has become a trend. Additionally, when the stacking link connecting
the switches fails or is abnormal, the stack will split. Although it is
not common, it still happens in actual operation. The problem is that
after the split, it is equivalent to two switches with the same
configuration appearing in the network, causing network configuration
conflicts and ultimately interrupting the services carried by the
stacking system.
To improve network stability, "non-stacking" solutions have been
increasingly adopted, particularly by public cloud providers and
tech companies like Alibaba, Tencent, and Didi. "non-stacking" is
a method of mimicing switch stacking that convinces a LACP peer,
bonding in this case, connected to a set of "non-stacked" switches
that all of its ports are connected to a single switch
(i.e., LACP aggregator), as if those switches were stacked. This
enables the LACP peer's ports to aggregate together, and requires
(a) special switch configuration, described in the linked article,
and (b) modifications to the bonding 802.3ad (LACP) mode to send
all ARP/ND packets across all ports of the active aggregator.
Note that, with multiple aggregators, the current broadcast mode
logic will send only packets to the selected aggregator(s).

The DCCP socket family has now been removed from this tree, see:
8bb3212be4b4 ("Merge branch 'net-retire-dccp-socket'")
Remove connection tracking and NAT support for this protocol, this
should not pose a problem because no DCCP traffic is expected to be seen
on the wire.
As for the code for matching on dccp header for iptables and nftables,
mark it as deprecated and keep it in place. Ruleset restoration is an
atomic operation. Without dccp matching support, an astray match on dccp
could break this operation leaving your computer with no policy in
place, so let's follow a more conservative approach for matches.
Add CONFIG_NFT_EXTHDR_DCCP which is set to 'n' by default to deprecate
dccp extension support. Similarly, label CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_DCCP
as deprecated too and also set it to 'n' by default.
Code to match on DCCP protocol from ebtables also remains in place, this
is just a few checks on IPPROTO_DCCP from _check() path which is
exercised when ruleset is loaded. There is another use of IPPROTO_DCCP
from the _check() path in the iptables multiport match. Another check
for IPPROTO_DCCP from the packet in the reject target is also removed.
So let's schedule removal of the dccp matching for a second stage, this
should not interfer with the dccp retirement since this is only matching
on the dccp header.

Introduce support for specifying relative bandwidth shares between
traffic classes (TC) in the devlink-rate API. This new option allows
users to allocate bandwidth across multiple traffic classes in a
single command.
This feature provides a more granular control over traffic management,
especially for scenarios requiring Enhanced Transmission Selection.
Users can now define a relative bandwidth share for each traffic class.
For example, assigning share values of 20 to TC0 (TCP/UDP) and 80 to TC5
(RoCE) will result in TC0 receiving 20% and TC5 receiving 80% of the
total bandwidth. The actual percentage each class receives depends on
the ratio of its share value to the sum of all shares.
Example:
DEV=pci/0000:08:00.0
$ devlink port function rate add $DEV/vfs_group tx_share 10Gbit \
tx_max 50Gbit tc-bw 0:20 1:0 2:0 3:0 4:0 5:80 6:0 7:0
$ devlink port function rate set $DEV/vfs_group \
tc-bw 0:20 1:0 2:0 3:0 4:0 5:20 6:60 7:0
Example usage with ynl:
./tools/net/ynl/cli.py --spec Documentation/netlink/specs/devlink.yaml \
--do rate-set --json '{
"bus-name": "pci",
"dev-name": "0000:08:00.0",
