Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
 "Core &amp; protocols:

   - Wrap datapath globals into net_aligned_data, to avoid false sharing

   - Preserve MSG_ZEROCOPY in forwarding (e.g. out of a container)

   - Add SO_INQ and SCM_INQ support to AF_UNIX

   - Add SIOCINQ support to AF_VSOCK

   - Add TCP_MAXSEG sockopt to MPTCP

   - Add IPv6 force_forwarding sysctl to enable forwarding per interface

   - Make TCP validation of whether packet fully fits in the receive
     window and the rcv_buf more strict. With increased use of HW
     aggregation a single "packet" can be multiple 100s of kB

   - Add MSG_MORE flag to optimize large TCP transmissions via sockmap,
     improves latency up to 33% for sockmap users

   - Convert TCP send queue handling from tasklet to BH workque

   - Improve BPF iteration over TCP sockets to see each socket exactly
     once

   - Remove obsolete and unused TCP RFC3517/RFC6675 loss recovery code

   - Support enabling kernel threads for NAPI processing on per-NAPI
     instance basis rather than a whole device. Fully stop the kernel
     NAPI thread when threaded NAPI gets disabled. Previously thread
     would stick around until ifdown due to tricky synchronization

   - Allow multicast routing to take effect on locally-generated packets

   - Add output interface argument for End.X in segment routing

   - MCTP: add support for gateway routing, improve bind() handling

   - Don't require rtnl_lock when fetching an IPv6 neighbor over Netlink

   - Add a new neighbor flag ("extern_valid"), which cedes refresh
     responsibilities to userspace. This is needed for EVPN multi-homing
     where a neighbor entry for a multi-homed host needs to be synced
     across all the VTEPs among which the host is multi-homed

   - Support NUD_PERMANENT for proxy neighbor entries

   - Add a new queuing discipline for IETF RFC9332 DualQ Coupled AQM

   - Add sequence numbers to netconsole messages. Unregister
     netconsole's console when all net targets are removed. Code
     refactoring. Add a number of selftests

   - Align IPSec inbound SA lookup to RFC 4301. Only SPI and protocol
     should be used for an inbound SA lookup

   - Support inspecting ref_tracker state via DebugFS

   - Don't force bonding advertisement frames tx to ~333 ms boundaries.
     Add broadcast_neighbor option to send ARP/ND on all bonded links

   - Allow providing upcall pid for the 'execute' command in openvswitch

   - Remove DCCP support from Netfilter's conntrack

   - Disallow multiple packet duplications in the queuing layer

   - Prevent use of deprecated iptables code on PREEMPT_RT

  Driver API:

   - Support RSS and hashing configuration over ethtool Netlink

   - Add dedicated ethtool callbacks for getting and setting hashing

     inputs

   - Support traffic classes in devlink rate API for bandwidth
     management

   - Remove rtnl_lock dependency from UDP tunnel port configuration

<title>tty: introduce and use tty_port_tty_vhangup() helper</title>

This code (tty_get -&gt; vhangup -&gt; tty_put) is repeated on few places.
Introduce a helper similar to tty_port_tty_hangup() (asynchronous) to
handle even vhangup (synchronous).

And use it on those places.

In fact, reuse the tty_port_tty_hangup()'s code and call tty_vhangup()
depending on a new bool parameter.

This code (tty_get -&gt; vhangup -&gt; tty_put) is repeated on few places.
Introduce a helper similar to tty_port_tty_hangup() (asynchronous) to
handle even vhangup (synchronous).

And use it on those places.

In fact, reuse the tty_port_tty_hangup()'s code and call tty_vhangup()
depending on a new bool parameter.

timer_delete[_sync]() replaces del_timer[_sync](). Convert the whole tree

Conversion was done with coccinelle plus manual fixups where necessary.

The bt_copy_from_sockptr() return value is being misinterpreted by most
users: a non-zero result is mistakenly assumed to represent an error code,
but actually indicates the number of bytes that could not be copied.

Remove bt_copy_from_sockptr() and adapt callers to use
copy_safe_from_sockptr().

For sco_sock_setsockopt() (case BT_CODEC) use copy_struct_from_sockptr() to
scrub parts of uninitialized buffer.

Opportunistically, rename `len` to `optlen` in hci_sock_setsockopt_old()
and hci_sock_setsockopt().

<id>5fe6caa62b07fd39cd6a28acc8f92ba2955e11a6</id>
<content type='text'>
Commit 9bf4e919ccad worked around an issue introduced after an innocuous
optimisation change in LLVM main:

&gt; len is defined as an 'int' because it is assigned from
&gt; '__user int *optlen'. However, it is clamped against the result of
&gt; sizeof(), which has a type of 'size_t' ('unsigned long' for 64-bit
&gt; platforms). This is done with min_t() because min() requires compatible
&gt; types, which results in both len and the result of sizeof() being casted
&gt; to 'unsigned int', meaning len changes signs and the result of sizeof()
&gt; is truncated. From there, len is passed to copy_to_user(), which has a
&gt; third parameter type of 'unsigned long', so it is widened and changes
&gt; signs again. This excessive casting in combination with the KCSAN
&gt; instrumentation causes LLVM to fail to eliminate the __bad_copy_from()
&gt; call, failing the build.

The same issue occurs in rfcomm in functions rfcomm_sock_getsockopt and
rfcomm_sock_getsockopt_old.

Change the type of len to size_t in both rfcomm_sock_getsockopt and
rfcomm_sock_getsockopt_old and replace min_t() with min().

Commit 9bf4e919ccad worked around an issue introduced after an innocuous
optimisation change in LLVM main:

&gt; len is defined as an 'int' because it is assigned from
&gt; '__user int *optlen'. However, it is clamped against the result of
&gt; sizeof(), which has a type of 'size_t' ('unsigned long' for 64-bit
&gt; platforms). This is done with min_t() because min() requires compatible
&gt; types, which results in both len and the result of sizeof() being casted
&gt; to 'unsigned int', meaning len changes signs and the result of sizeof()
&gt; is truncated. From there, len is passed to copy_to_user(), which has a
&gt; third parameter type of 'unsigned long', so it is widened and changes
&gt; signs again. This excessive casting in combination with the KCSAN
&gt; instrumentation causes LLVM to fail to eliminate the __bad_copy_from()
&gt; call, failing the build.

The same issue occurs in rfcomm in functions rfcomm_sock_getsockopt and
rfcomm_sock_getsockopt_old.

Change the type of len to size_t in both rfcomm_sock_getsockopt and
rfcomm_sock_getsockopt_old and replace min_t() with min().
