Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
"Core & protocols:
- A significant effort all around the stack to guide the compiler to
make the right choice when inlining code, to avoid unneeded calls
for small helper and stack canary overhead in the fast-path.
This generates better and faster code with very small or no text
size increases, as in many cases the call generated more code than
the actual inlined helper.
- Extend AccECN implementation so that is now functionally complete,
also allow the user-space enabling it on a per network namespace
basis.
- Add support for memory providers with large (above 4K) rx buffer.
Paired with hw-gro, larger rx buffer sizes reduce the number of
buffers traversing the stack, dincreasing single stream CPU usage
by up to ~30%.
- Do not add HBH header to Big TCP GSO packets. This simplifies the
RX path, the TX path and the NIC drivers, and is possible because
user-space taps can now interpret correctly such packets without
the HBH hint.
- Allow IPv6 routes to be configured with a gateway address that is
resolved out of a different interface than the one specified,
aligning IPv6 to IPv4 behavior.
- Multi-queue aware sch_cake. This makes it possible to scale the
rate shaper of sch_cake across multiple CPUs, while still enforcing
a single global rate on the interface.
- Add support for the nbcon (new buffer console) infrastructure to
netconsole, enabling lock-free, priority-based console operations
that are safer in crash scenarios.
- Improve the TCP ipv6 output path to cache the flow information,
saving cpu cycles, reducing cache line misses and stack use.
- Improve netfilter packet tracker to resolve clashes for most
protocols, avoiding unneeded drops on rare occasions.
- Add IP6IP6 tunneling acceleration to the flowtable infrastructure.
- Reduce tcp socket size by one cache line.
- Notify neighbour changes atomically, avoiding inconsistencies
between the notification sequence and the actual states sequence.
- Add vsock namespace support, allowing complete isolation of vsocks
across different network namespaces.
- Improve xsk generic performances with cache-alignment-oriented
optimizations.
- Support netconsole automatic target recovery, allowing netconsole
to reestablish targets when underlying low-level interface comes
back online.
Driver API:
- Support for switching the working mode (automatic vs manual) of a
DPLL device via netlink.
- Introduce PHY ports representation to expose multiple front-facing
media ports over a single MAC.
- Introduce "rx-polarity" and "tx-polarity" device tree properties,
to generalize polarity inversion requirements for differential
signaling.
- Add helper to create, prepare and enable managed clocks.

Extend struct printk_info to include the task name, pid, and CPU
number where printk messages originate. This information is captured
at vprintk_store() time and propagated through printk_message to
nbcon_write_context, making it available to nbcon console drivers.
This is useful for consoles like netconsole that want to include
execution context in their output, allowing correlation of messages
with specific tasks and CPUs regardless of where the console driver
actually runs.
The feature is controlled by CONFIG_PRINTK_EXECUTION_CTX, which is
automatically selected by CONFIG_NETCONSOLE_DYNAMIC. When disabled,
the helper functions compile to no-ops with no overhead.

With Sparse support gone, Clang is a bit more strict and warns:
./include/linux/console.h:492:50: error: use of undeclared identifier 'console_mutex'
492 | extern void console_list_unlock(void) __releases(console_mutex);
Since it does not make sense to make console_mutex itself global, move
the annotation to printk.c. Context analysis remains disabled for
printk.c.
This is needed to enable context analysis for modules that include

Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:
- Allow creaing nbcon console drivers with an unsafe write_atomic()
callback that can only be called by the final nbcon_atomic_flush_unsafe().
Otherwise, the driver would rely on the kthread.
It is going to be used as the-best-effort approach for an
experimental nbcon netconsole driver, see
https://lore.kernel.org/r/20251121-nbcon-v1-2-503d17b2b4af@debian.org
Note that a safe .write_atomic() callback is supposed to work in NMI
context. But some networking drivers are not safe even in IRQ
context:
https://lore.kernel.org/r/oc46gdpmmlly5o44obvmoatfqo5bhpgv7pabpvb6sjuqioymcg@gjsma3ghoz35
In an ideal world, all networking drivers would be fixed first and
the atomic flush would be blocked only in NMI context. But it brings
the question how reliable networking drivers are when the system is
in a bad state. They might block flushing more reliable serial
consoles which are more suitable for serious debugging anyway.
- Allow to use the last 4 bytes of the printk ring buffer.
- Prevent queuing IRQ work and block printk kthreads when consoles are
suspended. Otherwise, they create non-necessary churn or even block
the suspend.
- Release console_lock() between each record in the kthread used for
legacy consoles on RT. It might significantly speed up the boot.
- Release nbcon context between each record in the atomic flush. It
prevents stalls of the related printk kthread after it has lost the
ownership in the middle of a record
- Add support for NBCON consoles into KDB
- Add %ptsP modifier for printing struct timespec64 and use it where
possible
- Misc code clean up

There may be console drivers that have not yet figured out a way
to implement safe atomic printing (->write_atomic() callback).
These drivers could choose to only implement threaded printing
(->write_thread() callback), but then it is guaranteed that _no_
output will be printed during panic. Not even attempted.
As a result, developers may be tempted to implement unsafe
->write_atomic() callbacks and/or implement some sort of custom
deferred printing trickery to try to make it work. This goes
against the principle intention of the nbcon API as well as
endangers other nbcon drivers that are doing things correctly
(safely).
As a compromise, allow nbcon drivers to implement unsafe
->write_atomic() callbacks by providing a new console flag
CON_NBCON_ATOMIC_UNSAFE. When specified, the ->write_atomic()
callback for that console will _only_ be called during the
final "hope and pray" flush attempt at the end of a panic:
nbcon_atomic_flush_unsafe().

Function kdb_msg_write was calling con->write for any found console,
but it won't work on NBCON consoles. In this case we should acquire the
ownership of the console using NBCON_PRIO_EMERGENCY, since printing
kdb messages should only be interrupted by a panic.
At this point, the console is required to use the atomic callback. The
console is skipped if the write_atomic callback is not set or if the
context could not be acquired. The validation of NBCON is done by the
console_is_usable helper. The context is released right after
write_atomic finishes.
The oops_in_progress handling is only needed in the legacy consoles,
so it was moved around the con->write callback.

This function will be used in the next patch to allow a driver to set
both the message and message length of a nbcon_write_context. This is
necessary because the function also initializes the ->unsafe_takeover
struct member. By using this helper we ensure that the struct is
initialized correctly.

These helpers will be used when calling console->write_atomic on
KDB code in the next patch. It's basically the same implementation
as nbcon_device_try_acquire, but using NBCON_PRIO_EMERGENCY when
acquiring the context.
If the acquire succeeds, the message and message length are assigned to
nbcon_write_context so ->write_atomic can print the message.
After release try to flush the console since there may be a backlog of
messages in the ringbuffer. The kthread console printers do not get a
chance to run while kdb is active.

An emergency or panic context can takeover console ownership
while the current owner was printing a printk message. The
atomic printer will re-print the message that the previous
owner was printing. However, this can look confusing to the
user and may even seem as though a message was lost.

Add a new field @nbcon_prev_seq to struct console to track
the sequence number to print that was assigned to the previous
console owner. If this matches the sequence number to print
that the current owner is assigned, then a takeover must have
occurred. In this case, print an additional message to inform
the user that the previous message is being printed again.

Provide the main implementation for running a printer kthread
per nbcon console that is takeover/handover aware. This
includes:
- new mandatory write_thread() callback
- kthread creation
- kthread main printing loop
- kthread wakeup mechanism
- kthread shutdown
kthread creation is a bit tricky because consoles may register
before kthreads can be created. In such cases, registration
will succeed, even though no kthread exists. Once kthreads can
be created, an early_initcall will set @printk_kthreads_ready.
If there are no registered boot consoles, the early_initcall
creates the kthreads for all registered nbcon consoles. If
kthread creation fails, the related console is unregistered.
If there are registered boot consoles when
@printk_kthreads_ready is set, no kthreads are created until
the final boot console unregisters.
Once kthread creation finally occurs, @printk_kthreads_running
is set so that the system knows kthreads are available for all
registered nbcon consoles.
If @printk_kthreads_running is already set when the console
is registering, the kthread is created during registration. If
kthread creation fails, the registration will fail.
Until @printk_kthreads_running is set, console printing occurs
directly via the console_lock.
kthread shutdown on system shutdown/reboot is necessary to
ensure the printer kthreads finish their printing so that the
system can cleanly transition back to direct printing via the
console_lock in order to reliably push out the final
shutdown/reboot messages. @printk_kthreads_running is cleared
before shutting down the individual kthreads.
The kthread uses a new mandatory write_thread() callback that
is called with both device_lock() and the console context
acquired.
The console ownership handling is necessary for synchronization
against write_atomic() which is synchronized only via the
console context ownership.
The device_lock() serializes acquiring the console context with
NBCON_PRIO_NORMAL. It is needed in case the device_lock() does
not disable preemption. It prevents the following race:
CPU0 CPU1
[ task A ]
nbcon_context_try_acquire()
# success with NORMAL prio
# .unsafe == false; // safe for takeover
[ schedule: task A -> B ]
WARN_ON()
nbcon_atomic_flush_pending()
nbcon_context_try_acquire()
# success with EMERGENCY prio
# flushing
nbcon_context_release()
# HERE: con->nbcon_state is free
# to take by anyone !!!
nbcon_context_try_acquire()
# success with NORMAL prio [ task B ]
[ schedule: task B -> A ]
nbcon_enter_unsafe()
nbcon_context_can_proceed()
BUG: nbcon_context_can_proceed() returns "true" because
the console is owned by a context on CPU0 with
NBCON_PRIO_NORMAL.
But it should return "false". The console is owned
by a context from task B and we do the check
in a context from task A.
Note that with these changes, the printer kthreads do not yet
take over full responsibility for nbcon printing during normal
operation. These changes only focus on the lifecycle of the
kthreads.

Since ownership can be lost at any time due to handover or
takeover, a printing context _must_ be prepared to back out
immediately and carefully. However, there are scenarios where
the printing context must reacquire ownership in order to
finalize or revert hardware changes.
One such example is when interrupts are disabled during
printing. No other context will automagically re-enable the
interrupts. For this case, the disabling context _must_
reacquire nbcon ownership so that it can re-enable the
interrupts.
Provide nbcon_reacquire_nobuf() for exactly this purpose. It
allows a printing context to reacquire ownership using the same
priority as its previous ownership.
Note that after a successful reacquire the printing context
will have no output buffer because that has been lost. This
function cannot be used to resume printing.

In emergency situations (something has gone wrong but the
system continues to operate), usually important information
(such as a backtrace) is generated via printk(). This
information should be pushed out to the consoles ASAP.
Add per-CPU emergency nesting tracking because an emergency
can arise while in an emergency situation.
Add functions to mark the beginning and end of emergency
sections where the urgent messages are generated.
Perform direct console flushing at the emergency priority if
the current CPU is in an emergency state and it is safe to do
so.
Note that the emergency state is not system-wide. While one CPU
is in an emergency state, another CPU may attempt to print
console messages at normal priority.
Also note that printk() already attempts to flush consoles in
the caller context for normal priority. However, follow-up
changes will introduce printing kthreads, in which case the
normal priority printk() calls will offload to the kthreads.

Provide functions nbcon_device_try_acquire() and
nbcon_device_release() which will try to acquire the nbcon
console ownership with NBCON_PRIO_NORMAL and mark it unsafe for
handover/takeover.
These functions are to be used together with the device-specific
locking when performing non-printing activities on the console
device. They will allow synchronization against the
atomic_write() callback which will be serialized, for higher
priority contexts, only by acquiring the console context
ownership.
Pitfalls:
The API requires to be called in a context with migration
disabled because it uses per-CPU variables internally.
The context is set unsafe for a takeover all the time. It
guarantees full serialization against any atomic_write() caller
except for the final flush in panic() which might try an unsafe
takeover.

It was not clear when exactly console_srcu_read_flags() must be
used vs. directly reading @console->flags.
Refactor and clarify that console_srcu_read_flags() is only
needed if the console is registered or the caller is in a
context where the registration status of the console may change
(due to another context).
The function requires the caller holds @console_srcu, which will
ensure that the caller sees an appropriate @flags value for the
registered console and that exit/cleanup routines will not run
if the console is in the process of unregistration.

Console drivers typically must deal with access to the hardware
via user input/output (such as an interactive login shell) and
output of kernel messages via printk() calls. To provide the
necessary synchronization, usually some driver-specific locking
mechanism is used (for example, the port spinlock for uart
serial consoles).
Until now, usage of this driver-specific locking has been hidden
from the printk-subsystem and implemented within the various
console callbacks. However, nbcon consoles would need to use it
even in the generic code.
Add device_lock() and device_unlock() callback which will need
to get implemented by nbcon consoles.
The callbacks will use whatever synchronization mechanism the
driver is using for itself. The minimum requirement is to
prevent CPU migration. It would allow a context friendly
acquiring of nbcon console ownership in non-emergency and
non-panic context.

The return value of write_atomic() does not provide any useful
information. On the contrary, it makes things more complicated
for the caller to appropriately deal with the information.
Change write_atomic() to not have a return value. If the
message did not get printed due to loss of ownership, the
caller will notice this on its own. If ownership was not lost,
it will be assumed that the driver successfully printed the
message and the sequence number for that console will be
incremented.

The 'init' parameter of consw::con_init() is true for the first call of
the hook on a particular console. So make the parameter a bool.
And document the hook.

The return value of con_debug_enter() and con_debug_leave() is ignored
on many fronts. So just don't propagate errors (the current
implementations return 0 anyway) and make the return type a void.

It is pretty unfortunate to set vc_data::vc_resize_user in two callers
of vc_do_resize(). vc_resize_user is immediately reset there (while
remembering it). So instead of this back and forth, pass 'from_user' as
a parameter.
Notes on 'int user':
* The name changes from 'user' to 'from_user' on some places to be
consistent.
* The type is bool now as 'int user' might evoke user's uid or whatever.
Provided vc_resize() is called on many places and they need not to care
about this parameter, its prototype is kept unchanged. Instead, it is
now an inline calling a new __vc_resize() which implements the above.
This patch makes the situation much more obvious.

While adding a preferred console handling for serial_core for serial port
hardware based device addressing, Jiri suggested we constify name for
add_preferred_console(). The name gets copied anyways. This allows serial
core to add a preferred console using serial drv->dev_name without copying
it.
Note that constifying options causes changes all over the place because of
struct console for match().

Let's check for valid console index values for preferred console to avoid
bogus console index numbers from kernel command line.
Let's also return an error for negative index numbers for the preferred
console. Unlike for device drivers, a negative index is not valid for the
preferred console.
Let's also constify idx while at it.

The vga console driver is fairly self-contained, and only used by
architectures that explicitly initialize the screen_info settings.
Chance every instance that picks the vga console by setting conswitchp
to call a function instead, and pass a reference to the screen_info
there.

For the write_atomic callback, the console driver may have unsafe
regions that need to be appropriately marked. Provide functions
that accept the nbcon_write_context struct to allow for the driver
to enter and exit unsafe regions.
Also provide a function for drivers to check if they are still the
owner of the console.
