Page pool code is compiled conditionally, but the operations are part of the shared netlink family. We can handle this by reporting empty list of pools or -EOPNOTSUPP / -ENOSYS but the cleanest way seems to be removing the ops completely at compilation time. That way user can see that the page pool ops are not present using genetlink introspection. Same way they'd check if the kernel is "new enough" to support the ops. Extend the specs with the ability to specify the config condition under which op (and its policies, etc.) should be hidden. Reviewed-by:

When we configure the kernel command line with 'mitigations=off' and set the sysctl knob 'kernel.unprivileged_bpf_disabled' to 0, the commit bc5bc309 ("bpf: Inherit system settings for CPU security mitigations") causes issues in the execution of `test_progs -t verifier`. This is because 'mitigations=off' bypasses Spectre v1 and Spectre v4 protections. Currently, when a program requests to run in unprivileged mode (kernel.unprivileged_bpf_disabled = 0), the BPF verifier may prevent it from running due to the following conditions not being enabled: - bypass_spec_v1 - bypass_spec_v4 - allow_ptr_leaks - allow_uninit_stack While 'mitigations=off' enables the first two conditions, it does not enable the latter two. As a result, some test cases in 'test_progs -t verifier' that were expected to fail to run may run successfully, while others still fail but with different error messages. This makes it challenging to address them comprehensively. Moreover, in the future, we may introduce more fine-grained control over CPU mitigations, such as enabling only bypass_spec_v1 or bypass_spec_v4. Given the complexity of the situation, rather than fixing each broken test case individually, it's preferable to skip them when 'mitigations=off' is in effect and introduce specific test cases for the new 'mitigations=off' scenario. For instance, we can introduce new BTF declaration tags like '__failure__nospec', '__failure_nospecv1' and '__failure_nospecv4'. In this patch, the approach is to simply skip the broken test cases when 'mitigations=off' is enabled.

This is a redundant step if bpftool has been already built, so update samples/bpf/Makefile such that it accepts a path to bpftool passed via the BPFTOOL variable.

Currently, it is not possible to specify custom flags when building samples/bpf. The flags are defined in TPROGS_CFLAGS/TPROGS_LDFLAGS variables, however, when trying to override those from the make command, compilation fails. For example, when trying to build with PIE: $ make -C samples/bpf TPROGS_CFLAGS="-fpie" TPROGS_LDFLAGS="-pie" This is because samples/bpf/Makefile updates these variables, especially appends include paths to TPROGS_CFLAGS and these updates are overridden by setting the variables from the make command. This patch introduces variables TPROGS_USER_CFLAGS/TPROGS_USER_LDFLAGS for this purpose, which can be set from the make command and their values are propagated to TPROGS_CFLAGS/TPROGS_LDFLAGS.

Mostly nf_tables updates with two patches for connlabel and br_netfilter. 1) Rename function name to perform on-demand GC for rbtree elements, and replace async GC in rbtree by sync GC. Patches from Florian Westphal. 2) Use commit_mutex for NFT_MSG_GETRULE_RESET to ensure that two concurrent threads invoking this command do not underrun stateful objects. Patches from Phil Sutter. 3) Use single hook to deal with IP and ARP packets in br_netfilter. Patch from Florian Westphal. 4) Use atomic_t in netns->connlabel use counter instead of using a spinlock, also patch from Florian. 5) Cleanups for stateful objects infrastructure in nf_tables. Patches from Phil Sutter. 6) Flush path uses opaque set element offered by the iterator, instead of calling pipapo_deactivate() which looks up for it again. 7) Set backend .flush interface always succeeds, make it return void instead. 8) Add struct nft_elem_priv placeholder structure and use it by replacing void * to pass opaque set element representation from backend to frontend which defeats compiler type checks. 9) Shrink memory consumption of set element transactions, by reducing struct nft_trans_elem object size and reducing stack memory usage. 10) Use struct nft_elem_priv also for set backend .insert operation too. 11) Carry reset flag in nft_set_dump_ctx structure, instead of passing it as a function argument, from Phil Sutter. netfilter pull request 23-10-25 * tag 'nf-next-23-10-25' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netfilter/nf-next: netfilter: nf_tables: Carry reset boolean in nft_set_dump_ctx netfilter: nf_tables: set->ops->insert returns opaque set element in case of EEXIST netfilter: nf_tables: shrink memory consumption of set elements netfilter: nf_tables: expose opaque set element as struct nft_elem_priv netfilter: nf_tables: set backend .flush always succeeds netfilter: nft_set_pipapo: no need to call pipapo_deactivate() from flush netfilter: nf_tables: Carry reset boolean in nft_obj_dump_ctx netfilter: nf_tables: nft_obj_filter fits into cb->ctx netfilter: nf_tables: Carry s_idx in nft_obj_dump_ctx netfilter: nf_tables: A better name for nft_obj_filter netfilter: nf_tables: Unconditionally allocate nft_obj_filter netfilter: nf_tables: Drop pointless memset in nf_tables_dump_obj netfilter: conntrack: switch connlabels to atomic_t br_netfilter: use single forward hook for ip and arp netfilter: nf_tables: Add locking for NFT_MSG_GETRULE_RESET requests netfilter: nf_tables: Introduce nf_tables_getrule_single() netfilter: nf_tables: Open-code audit log call in nf_tables_getrule() netfilter: nft_set_rbtree: prefer sync gc to async worker netfilter: nft_set_rbtree: rename gc deactivate+erase function ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231025212555.132775-1-pablo@netfilter.orgSigned-off-by: -

If the preferred lifetime was less than the minimum required lifetime, ipv6_create_tempaddr would error out without creating any new address. On my machine and network, this error happened immediately with the preferred lifetime set to 1 second, after a few minutes with the preferred lifetime set to 4 seconds, and not at all with the preferred lifetime set to 5 seconds. During my investigation, I found a Stack Exchange post from another person who seems to have had the same problem: They stopped getting new addresses if they lowered the preferred lifetime below 3 seconds, and they didn't really know why. The preferred lifetime is a preference, not a hard requirement. The kernel does not strictly forbid new connections on a deprecated address, nor does it guarantee that the address will be disposed of the instant its total valid lifetime expires. So rather than disable IPv6 privacy extensions altogether if the minimum required lifetime swells above the preferred lifetime, it is more in keeping with the user's intent to increase the temporary address's lifetime to the minimum necessary for the current network conditions. With these fixes, setting the preferred lifetime to 3 or 4 seconds "just works" because the extra fraction of a second is practically unnoticeable. It's even possible to reduce the time before deprecation to 1 or 2 seconds by also disabling duplicate address detection (setting /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/*/dad_transmits to 0). I realize that that is a pretty niche use case, but I know at least one person who would gladly sacrifice performance and convenience to be sure that they are getting the maximum possible level of privacy.

Yan Zhai says: ==================== ipv6: avoid atomic fragment on GSO output When the ipv6 stack output a GSO packet, if its gso_size is larger than dst MTU, then all segments would be fragmented. However, it is possible for a GSO packet to have a trailing segment with smaller actual size than both gso_size as well as the MTU, which leads to an "atomic fragment". Atomic fragments are considered harmful in RFC-8021. An Existing report from APNIC also shows that atomic fragments are more likely to be dropped even it is equivalent to a no-op [1]. The series contains following changes: * drop feature RTAX_FEATURE_ALLFRAG, which has been broken. This helps simplifying other changes in this set. * refactor __ip6_finish_output code to separate GSO and non-GSO packet processing, mirroring IPv4 side logic. * avoid generating atomic fragment on GSO packets.

Separate GSO and non-GSO packets handling to make the logic cleaner. For GSO packets, frag_max_size check can be omitted because it is only useful for packets defragmented by netfilter hooks. Both local output and GRO logic won't produce GSO packets when defragment is needed. This also mirrors what IPv4 side code is doing. Suggested-by:

However, since commit 9d289715 ("ipv6: stop sending PTB packets for MTU < 1280"), such message would be simply discarded. The feature flag is neither supported in iproute2 utility. In theory one can still manipulate it with direct netlink message, but it is not ideal because it was based on obsoleted guidance of RFC-2460 (replaced by RFC-8200). The feature would always test false at the moment, so remove related code or mark them as unused. Signed-off-by:

In iavf_down, we're skipping the scheduling of certain operations if the driver is being removed. However, the IAVF_FLAG_AQ_DISABLE_QUEUES request must not be skipped in this case, because iavf_close waits for the transition to the __IAVF_DOWN state, which happens in iavf_virtchnl_completion after the queues are released. Without this fix, "rmmod iavf" takes half a second per interface that's up and prints the "Device resources not yet released" warning. Fixes: c8de44b5 ("iavf: do not process adminq tasks when __IAVF_IN_REMOVE_TASK is set") Signed-off-by:

Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== Netfilter fixes for net This patch contains two late Netfilter's flowtable fixes for net: 1) Flowtable GC pushes back packets to classic path in every GC run, ie. every second. This is because NF_FLOW_HW_ESTABLISHED is only used by sched/act_ct (never set) and IPS_SEEN_REPLY might be unset by the time the flow is offloaded (this status bit is only reliable in the sched/act_ct datapath). 2) sched/act_ct logic to push back packets to classic path to reevaluate if UDP flow is unidirectional only applies if IPS_HW_OFFLOAD_BIT is set on and no hardware offload request is pending to be handled. From Vlad Buslov. These two patches fixes two problems that were introduced in the previous 6.5 development cycle. * tag 'nf-23-10-25' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netfilter/nf: net/sched: act_ct: additional checks for outdated flows netfilter: flowtable: GC pushes back packets to classic path ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231025100819.2664-1-pablo@netfilter.orgSigned-off-by:

Once VQs are filled with empty buffers and we kick the host, it can send connection requests. If the_virtio_vsock is not initialized before, replies are silently dropped and do not reach the host. virtio_transport_send_pkt() can queue packets once the_virtio_vsock is set, but they won't be processed until vsock->tx_run is set to true. We queue vsock->send_pkt_work when initialization finishes to send those packets queued earlier. Fixes: 0deab087 ("vsock/virtio: use RCU to avoid use-after-free on the_virtio_vsock") Signed-off-by:

Mat Martineau says: ==================== mptcp: Features and fixes for v6.7 Patch 1 adds a configurable timeout for the MPTCP connection when all subflows are closed, to support break-before-make use cases. Patch 2 is a fix for a 1-byte error in rx data counters with MPTCP fastopen connections. Patch 3 is a minor code cleanup. Patches 4 & 5 add handling of rcvlowat for MPTCP sockets, with a prerequisite patch to use a common scaling ratio between TCP and MPTCP. Patch 6 improves efficiency of memory copying in MPTCP transmit code. Patch 7 refactors syncing of socket options from the MPTCP socket to its subflows. Patches 8 & 9 help the MPTCP packet scheduler perform well by changing the handling of notsent_lowat in subflows and how available buffer space is calculated for MPTCP-level sends. ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231023-send-net-next-20231023-2-v1-0-9dc60939d371@kernel.orgSigned-off-by:

The MPTCP protocol account for the data enqueued on all the subflows to the main socket send buffer, while the send buffer auto-tuning algorithm set the main socket send buffer size as the max size among the subflows. That causes bad performances when at least one subflow is sndbuf limited, e.g. due to very high latency, as the MPTCP scheduler can't even fill such buffer. Change the send-buffer auto-tuning algorithm to compute the main socket send buffer size as the sum of all the subflows buffer size. Reviewed-by:

Any latency related tuning taking action at the subflow level does not really affect the user-space, as only the main MPTCP socket is relevant. Anyway any limiting setting may foul the MPTCP scheduler, not being able to fully use the subflow-level cwin, leading to very poor b/w usage. Enforce notsent_lowat to be a no-op on every subflow. Note that TCP_NOTSENT_LOWAT is currently not supported, and properly dealing with that will require more invasive changes. Reviewed-by:

Move the socket option synchronization for active subflows at subflow creation time. This allows removing the now unused unlocked variant of such helper. While at that, clean-up a bit the mptcp_subflow_create_socket() errors path. Reviewed-by:

The perf traces show an high cost for the MPTCP transmit path memcpy. It turn out that the helper currently in use carries quite a bit of unneeded overhead, e.g. to map/unmap the memory pages. Moving to the 'copy_from_iter' variant removes such overhead and additionally gains the no-cache support. Reviewed-by:

The MPTCP protocol allow setting sk_rcvlowat, but the value there is currently ignored. Additionally, the default subflows sk_rcvlowat basically disables per subflow delayed ack: the MPTCP protocol move the incoming data from the subflows into the msk socket as soon as the TCP stacks invokes the subflow data_ready callback. Later, when __tcp_ack_snd_check() takes action, the subflow-level copied_seq matches rcv_nxt, and that mandate for an immediate ack. Let the mptcp receive path be aware of such threshold, explicitly tracking the amount of data available to be ready and checking vs sk_rcvlowat in mptcp_poll() and before waking-up readers. Additionally implement the set_rcvlowat() callback, to properly handle the rcvbuf auto-tuning on sk_rcvlowat changes. Finally to properly handle delayed ack, force the subflow level threshold to 0 and instead explicitly ask for an immediate ack when the msk level th is not reached. Reviewed-by:

The MPTCP protocol allows sockets with no alive subflows to stay in ESTABLISHED status for and user-defined timeout, to allow for later subflows creation. Currently such timeout is constant - TCP_TIMEWAIT_LEN. Let the user-space configure them via a newly added sysctl, to better cope with busy servers and simplify (make them faster) the relevant pktdrill tests. Note that the new know does not apply to orphaned MPTCP socket waiting for the data_fin handshake completion: they always wait TCP_TIMEWAIT_LEN. Reviewed-by:
