This patch adds a near[1] complete YNL specification for WireGuard,
documenting the protocol in a machine-readable format, rather than
comments in wireguard.h, and eases usage from C and non-C programming
languages alike.
The generated C library will be featured in a later patch, so in
this patch I will use the in-kernel python client for examples.
This makes the documentation in the UAPI header redundant, it is
therefore removed. The in-line documentation in the spec is based
on the existing comment in wireguard.h, and once released it will
be available in the kernel documentation at:
https://docs.kernel.org/netlink/specs/wireguard.html
(until then run: make htmldocs)
Generate wireguard.rst from this spec:
$ make -C tools/net/ynl/generated/ wireguard.rst
[1] As can be seen above, the "endpoint" is only dumped as binary data,
as it can't be fully described in YNL. It's either a struct
sockaddr_in or struct sockaddr_in6 depending on the attribute length.

wireguard: netlink: lower .maxattr for WG_CMD_GET_DEVICE
Previously .maxattr was shared for both WG_CMD_GET_DEVICE and
WG_CMD_SET_DEVICE. Now that it is split, then we can lower it
for WG_CMD_GET_DEVICE to follow the documentation which defines
.maxattr as WGDEVICE_A_IFNAME for WG_CMD_GET_DEVICE.
$ grep -hC5 'one but not both of:' include/uapi/linux/wireguard.h
* WG_CMD_GET_DEVICE
* -----------------
*
* May only be called via NLM_F_REQUEST | NLM_F_DUMP. The command
* should contain one but not both of:
*
* WGDEVICE_A_IFINDEX: NLA_U32
* WGDEVICE_A_IFNAME: NLA_NUL_STRING, maxlen IFNAMSIZ - 1
*
* The kernel will then return several messages [...]
While other attributes weren't rejected previously, the consensus
is that nobody sends those attributes, so nothing should break.

This patch converts WireGuard from using the legacy struct genl_ops
to struct genl_split_ops, by applying the same transformation as
genl_cmd_full_to_split() would otherwise do at runtime.
WGDEVICE_A_MAX is swapped for WGDEVICE_A_PEERS, while they are
currently equivalent, then .maxattr should be the maximum attribute
that a given command supports, and not change along with WGDEVICE_A_MAX.
This is an incremental step towards adopting netlink policy code
generated by ynl-gen, ensuring that the code and spec is aligned.
This is a trivial patch with no behavioural changes intended.

WireGuard is a modern enough genetlink family, that it doesn't need
resv_start_op. It already had policies in place when it was first
merged, it has also never used the reserved field, or other things
toggled by resv_start_op.
wireguard-tools have always used zero initialized memory, and have never
touched the reserved field, neither have any other clients I have
checked. Closed-source clients are much more likely to use the
embeddedable library from wireguard-tools, than a DIY implementation
using uninitialized memory.

can: Kconfig: select CAN driver infrastructure by default
The CAN bus support enabled with CONFIG_CAN provides a socket-based
access to CAN interfaces. With the introduction of the latest CAN protocol
CAN XL additional configuration status information needs to be exposed to
the network layer than formerly provided by standard Linux network drivers.
This requires the CAN driver infrastructure to be selected by default.
As the CAN network layer can only operate on CAN interfaces anyway all
distributions and common default configs enable at least one CAN driver.
So selecting CONFIG_CAN_DEV when CONFIG_CAN is selected by the user has
no effect on established configurations but solves potential build issues
when CONFIG_CAN[_XXX]=y is set together with CANFIG_CAN_DEV=m

strncpy() is deprecated [1] for NUL-terminated destination buffers
because it does not guarantee NUL termination. Replace it with strscpy()
to ensure the destination buffer is always NUL-terminated and to avoid
any additional NUL padding.
Although the identifier buffer has 252 usable bytes, strncpy() copied
only up to 251 bytes to the zero-initialized buffer, relying on the last
byte to act as an implicit NUL terminator. Switching to strscpy() avoids
this implicit behavior and does not use magic numbers.
The source string is also NUL-terminated and satisfies the

Introduce the dsa_xmit_port_mask() tagging protocol helper
What
----
Some DSA tags have just the port number in the TX header format, others
have a bit field where in theory, multiple bits can be set, even though
DSA only sets one.
The latter kind is now making use of a dsa_xmit_port_mask() helper,
which will decide when to set more than 1 bit in that mask.
Why
---
David Yang has pointed out in a recently posted patch that HSR packet
duplication on transmission can be offloaded even on HSR-unaware
switches. This should be made generally available to all DSA switches.
How to test
-----------
These patches just lay the groundwork, and there should be no functional
change - so for this set, regression testing is all that's necessary.
For testing the HSR packet duplication idea, I've put together a branch:
https://github.com/vladimiroltean/linux/commits/dsa-simple-hsr-offload/
where most drivers are patched to call dsa_port_simple_hsr_join() and
dsa_port_simple_hsr_leave().
Assuming there are volunteers to also test the latter, one can enable
CONFIG_HSR and create a HSR device using:
$ ip link add name hsr0 type hsr slave1 swp0 slave2 swp1 supervision 45 version 1
This needs to be connected using 2 cables to another system where the
same command was run. Then, one should be able to ping the other board
through the hsr0 interface.
Without the Github branch, a ping over HSR should increase the DSA
conduit interface's TX counters by 2 packets. With the Github branch,
the TX counters should increase by only 1 packet.
Why so many patches
-------------------
To avoid the situation where a patch has to be backported, conflicts
with the work done here, pulls this in as a dependency, and that pulls
in 13 other unrelated drivers. These don't have any dependencies between
each other and can be cherry-picked at will (except they all depend on
patch 1/15).

net: dsa: introduce the dsa_xmit_port_mask() tagging protocol helper
Many tagging protocols deal with the transmit port mask being a bit
mask, and set it to BIT(dp->index). Not a big deal.
Also, some tagging protocols are written for switches which support HSR
offload (including packet duplication offload), there we see a walk
using dsa_hsr_foreach_port() to find the other port in the same switch
that's member of the HSR, and set that bit in the port mask too.
That isn't sufficiently interesting either, until you come to realize
that there isn't anything special in the second case that switches just
in the first one can't do too.
It just becomes a matter of "is it wise to do it? are sufficient people
using HSR/PRP with generic off-the-shelf switches to justify add an
extra test in the data path?" - the answer to which is probably "it
depends". It isn't _much_ worse to not have HSR offload at all, so as to
make it impractical, esp. with a rich OS like Linux. But the HSR users
are rather specialized in industrial networking.
Anyway, the change acts on the premise that we're going to have support
for this, it should be uniformly implemented for everyone, and that if
we find some sort of balance, we can keep everyone relatively happy.
So I've disabled that logic if CONFIG_HSR isn't enabled, and I've tilted
the branch predictor to say it's unlikely we're transmitting through a
port with this capability currently active. On branch miss, we're still
going to save the transmission of one packet, so there's some remaining
benefit there too. I don't _think_ we need to jump to static keys yet.
The helper returns a 32-bit zero-based unsigned number, that callers
have to transpose using FIELD_PREP(). It is not the first time we assume
DSA switches won't be larger than 32 ports - dsa_user_ports() has that
assumption baked into it too.
One last development note about why pass the "skb" argument when this
isn't used. Looking at the compiled code on arm64, which is identical
both with and without it, the answer is "why not?" - who knows what
other features dependent on the skb may be handled in the future.

net: Remove KMSG_COMPONENT macro
The KMSG_COMPONENT macro is a leftover of the s390 specific "kernel message
catalog" from 2008 [1] which never made it upstream.
The macro was added to s390 code to allow for an out-of-tree patch which
used this to generate unique message ids. Also this out-of-tree patch
doesn't exist anymore.
The pattern of how the KMSG_COMPONENT macro is used can also be found at
some non s390 specific code, for whatever reasons. Besides adding an
indirection it is unused.
Remove the macro in order to get rid of a pointless indirection. Replace
all users with the string it defines. In all cases this leads to a simple
replacement like this:

bnxt_en: Add Virtual Admin Link State Support for VFs
The firmware can now cache the virtual link admin state (auto/on/off) of
all VFs and as such, the PF driver no longer has to intercept the VF
driver's port_phy_qcfg() call and then provide the link admin state.
If the FW does not have this capability, fall back to the existing
interception method.
The initial default link admin state (auto) is also set initially when
the VFs are created.

The tx->dropped_pkt counter is a 64-bit integer that is incremented

dropped packets.
To prevent this potential data corruption, wrap the increment

This ensures that updates to the 64-bit counter are atomic, even on

table ip filter {

}
}
Currently, if the connection count goes over the limit the counter will
count the packets. When a connection is closed, the connection count
won't decrement as it should because it is only updated for new
connections due to an optimization on __nf_conncount_add() that prevents
updating the list if the connection is duplicated.
To solve this problem, check whether the connection was skipped and if
so, update the list. Adjust count_tree() too so the same fix is applied

Introduce sw acceleration for rx path of IPIP tunnels relying on the
netfilter flowtable infrastructure. Subsequent patches will add sw
acceleration for IPIP tunnels tx path.
This series introduces basic infrastructure to accelerate other tunnel
types (e.g. IP6IP6).
IPIP rx sw acceleration can be tested running the following scenario where
the traffic is forwarded between two NICs (eth0 and eth1) and an IPIP
tunnel is used to access a remote site (using eth1 as the underlay device):

Use dev_queue_xmit() for the XMIT_NEIGH case. Store the interface index
of the real device behind the vlan/pppoe device, this introduces an
extra lookup for the real device in the xmit path because rt->dst.dev
provides the vlan/pppoe device.
XMIT_NEIGH now looks more similar to XMIT_DIRECT but the check for stale
dst and the neighbour lookup still remain in place which is convenient
to deal with network topology changes.
Note that nft_flow_route() needs to relax the check for _XMIT_NEIGH so
the existing basic xfrm offload (which only works in one direction) does
not break.

netfilter: flowtable: move path discovery infrastructure to its own file
This file contains the path discovery that is run from the forward chain
for the packet offloading the flow into the flowtable. This consists
of a series of calls to dev_fill_forward_path() for each device stack.
More topologies may be supported in the future, so move this code to its
own file to separate it from the nftables flow_offload expression.

net: stmmac: dwmac: Disable flushing frames on Rx Buffer Unavailable
In Store and Forward mode, flushing frames when the receive buffer is
unavailable, can cause the MTL Rx FIFO to go out of sync. This results
in buffering of a few frames in the FIFO without triggering Rx DMA
from transferring the data to the system memory until another packet
is received. Once the issue happens, for a ping request, the packet is
forwarded to the system memory only after we receive another packet
and hece we observe a latency equivalent to the ping interval.
64 bytes from 192.168.2.100: seq=1 ttl=64 time=1000.344 ms
Also, we can observe constant gmacgrp_debug register value of
0x00000120, which indicates "Reading frame data".
The issue is not reproducible after disabling frame flushing when Rx
buffer is unavailable. But in that case, the Rx DMA enters a suspend
state due to buffer unavailability. To resume operation, software
must write to the receive_poll_demand register after adding new
descriptors, which reactivates the Rx DMA.
This issue is observed in the socfpga platforms which has dwmac1000 IP
like Arria 10, Cyclone V and Agilex 7. Issue is reproducible after
running iperf3 server at the DUT for UDP lower packet sizes.

net: fec: fix some PTP related issues
There are some issues which were introduced by the commit 350749b909bf
("net: fec: Add support for periodic output signal of PPS"). See each
patch for more details.
====================
Wei Fang [Tue, 25 Nov 2025 08:52:10 +0000 (16:52 +0800)]
net: fec: do not register PPS event for PEROUT
There are currently two situations that can trigger the PTP interrupt,
one is the PPS event, the other is the PEROUT event. However, the irq
handler fec_pps_interrupt() does not check the irq event type and
directly registers a PPS event into the system, but the event may be
a PEROUT event. This is incorrect because PEROUT is an output signal,
while PPS is the input of the kernel PPS system. Therefore, add a check
for the event type, if pps_enable is true, it means that the current
event is a PPS event, and then the PPS event is registered.
Wei Fang [Tue, 25 Nov 2025 08:52:09 +0000 (16:52 +0800)]
net: fec: do not allow enabling PPS and PEROUT simultaneously
In the current driver, PPS and PEROUT use the same channel to generate
the events, so they cannot be enabled at the same time. Otherwise, the
later configuration will overwrite the earlier configuration. Therefore,
when configuring PPS, the driver will check whether PEROUT is enabled.
Similarly, when configuring PEROUT, the driver will check whether PPS
is enabled.
Wei Fang [Tue, 25 Nov 2025 08:52:08 +0000 (16:52 +0800)]
net: fec: do not update PEROUT if it is enabled
If the previously set PEROUT is already active, updating it will cause
the new PEROUT to start immediately instead of at the specified time.
This is because fep->reload_period is updated whithout check whether
the PEROUT is enabled, and the old PEROUT is not disabled. Therefore,
the pulse period will be updated immediately in the pulse interrupt
handler fec_pps_interrupt().
Currently, the driver does not support directly updating PEROUT and it
will make the logic be more complicated. To fix the current issue, add
a check before enabling the PEROUT, the driver will return an error if
PEROUT is enabled. If users wants to update a new PEROUT, they should
disable the old PEROUT first.
Wei Fang [Tue, 25 Nov 2025 08:52:07 +0000 (16:52 +0800)]
net: fec: cancel perout_timer when PEROUT is disabled
The PEROUT allows the user to set a specified future time to output the
periodic signal. If the future time is far from the current time, the FEC
driver will use hrtimer to configure PEROUT one second before the future
time. However, the hrtimer will not be canceled if the PEROUT is disabled
before the hrtimer expires. So the PEROUT will be configured when the
hrtimer expires, which is not as expected. Therefore, cancel the hrtimer
in fec_ptp_pps_disable() to fix this issue.

net: mctp: unconditionally set skb->dev on dst output
On transmit, we are currently relying on skb->dev being set by
mctp_local_output() when we first set up the skb destination fields.
However, forwarded skbs do not use the local_output path, so will retain
their incoming netdev as their ->dev on tx. This does not work when
we're forwarding between interfaces.
Set skb->dev unconditionally in the transmit path, to allow for proper
forwarding.
We keep the skb->dev initialisation in mctp_local_output(), as we use it
for fragmentation.
====================
net: phy: Add support for fbnic PHY w/ 25G, 50G, and 100G support
To transition the fbnic driver to using the XPCS driver we need to address
the fact that we need a representation for the FW managed PMD that is
actually a SerDes PHY to handle link bouncing during link training.
This patch set introduces the necessary bits to the XPCS driver code to
enable it to read 25G, 50G, and 100G speeds from the PCS ctrl1 register,
and adds support for the approriate interfaces.
The rest of this patch set enables the changes to fbnic to make use of
these interfaces and expose a PMD that can provide a necessary link delay
to avoid link flapping in the event that a cable is disconnected and
reconnected, and to correctly expose the count for the link down events.
With this we have the basic groundwork laid as with this all the bits and
pieces are in place in terms of reading the configuration. The general plan
for follow-on patch sets is to start looking at enabling changing the
configuration in environments where that is supported.

fbnic: Replace use of internal PCS w/ Designware XPCS
As we have exposed the PCS registers via the SWMII we can now start looking
at connecting the XPCS driver to those registers and let it mange the PCS
instead of us doing it directly from the fbnic driver.
For now this just gets us the ability to detect link. The hope is in the
future to add some of the vendor specific registers to begin enabling XPCS
configuration of the interface.

fbnic: Add SW shim for MDIO interface to PMD and PCS
In order for us to support a PCS device we need to add an MDIO bus to allow
the drivers to have access to the registers for the device. This change
adds such an interface.
The interface will consist of 2 PHY addrs, the first one consisting of a
PMD and PCS, and the second just being a PCS. There is a need for 2 PHYs
addrs due to the fact that in order to support the 50GBase-CR2 mode we will
need to access and configure the PCS vendor registers and RSFEC registers
from the second lane identical to the first.
