Poll length and # budget parameters can be set independently of system defaults. # # - Introduce struct net_hotdata, to make sure read-mostly global # config variables fit in as few cache lines as possible. # # - Add optional per-nexthop statistics to ease monitoring / debug of # ECMP imbalance problems. # # - Support TCP_NOTSENT_LOWAT in MPTCP. # # - Ensure that IPv6 temporary addresses' preferred lifetimes are long # enough, compared to other configured lifetimes, and at least 2 sec. # # - Support forwarding of ICMP Error messages in IPSec, per RFC 4301. # # - Add support for the independent control state machine for bonding # per IEEE 802.1AX-2008 5.4.15 in addition to the existing coupled # control state machine. # # - Add "network ID" to MCTP socket APIs to support hosts with multiple # disjoint MCTP networks. # # - Re-use the mono_delivery_time skbuff bit for packets which user # space wants to be sent at a specified time. Maintain the timing # information while traversing veth links, bridge etc. # # - Take advantage of MSG_SPLICE_PAGES for RxRPC DATA and ACK packets. # # - Simplify many places iterating over netdevs by using an xarray # instead of a hash table walk (hash table remains in place, for use # on fastpaths). # # - Speed up scanning for expired routes by keeping a dedicated list. # # - Speed up "generic" XDP by trying harder to avoid large allocations. # # - Support attaching arbitrary metadata to netconsole messages. # # Things we sprinkled into general kernel code: # # - Enforce VM_IOREMAP flag and range in ioremap_page_range and # introduce VM_SPARSE kind and vm_area_[un]map_pages (used by # bpf_arena). # # - Rework selftest harness to enable the use of the full range of ksft # exit code (pass, fail, skip, xfail, xpass). # # Netfilter: # # - Allow userspace to define a table that is exclusively owned by a # daemon (via netlink socket aliveness) without auto-removing this # table when the userspace program exits. Such table gets marked as # orphaned and a restarting management daemon can re-attach/regain # ownership. # # - Speed up element insertions to nftables' concatenated-ranges set # type. Compact a few related data structures. # # BPF: # # - Add BPF token support for delegating a subset of BPF subsystem # functionality from privileged system-wide daemons such as systemd # through special mount options for userns-bound BPF fs to a trusted # & unprivileged application. # # - Introduce bpf_arena which is sparse shared memory region between # BPF program and user space where structures inside the arena can # have pointers to other areas of the arena, and pointers work # seamlessly for both user-space programs and BPF programs. # # - Introduce may_goto instruction that is a contract between the # verifier and the program. The verifier allows the program to loop # assuming it's behaving well, but reserves the right to terminate # it. # # - Extend the BPF verifier to enable static subprog calls in spin lock # critical sections. # # - Support registration of struct_ops types from modules which helps # projects like fuse-bpf that seeks to implement a new struct_ops # type. # # - Add support for retrieval of cookies for perf/kprobe multi links. # # - Support arbitrary TCP SYN cookie generation / validation in the TC # layer with BPF to allow creating SYN flood handling in BPF # firewalls. # # - Add code generation to inline the bpf_kptr_xchg() helper which # improves performance when stashing/popping the allocated BPF # objects. # # Wireless: # # - Add SPP (signaling and payload protected) AMSDU support. # # - Support wider bandwidth OFDMA, as required for EHT operation. # # Driver API: # # - Major overhaul of the Energy Efficient Ethernet internals to # support new link modes (2.5GE, 5GE), share more code between # drivers (especially those using phylib), and encourage more # uniform behavior. Convert and clean up drivers. # # - Define an API for querying per netdev queue statistics from # drivers. # # - IPSec: account in global stats for fully offloaded sessions. # # - Create a concept of Ethernet PHY Packages at the Device Tree level, # to allow parameterizing the existing PHY package code. # # - Enable Rx hashing (RSS) on GTP protocol fields. # # Misc: # # - Improvements and refactoring all over networking selftests. # # - Create uniform module aliases for TC classifiers, actions, and # packet schedulers to simplify creating modprobe policies. # # - Address all missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() warnings in networking. # # - Extend the Netlink descriptions in YAML to cover message # encapsulation or "Netlink polymorphism", where interpretation of # nested attributes depends on link type, classifier type or some # other "class type". # # Drivers: # # - Ethernet high-speed NICs: # - Add a new driver for Marvell's Octeon PCI Endpoint NIC VF. # - Intel (100G, ice, idpf): # - support E825-C devices # - nVidia/Mellanox: # - support devices with one port and multiple PCIe links # - Broadcom (bnxt): # - support n-tuple filters # - support configuring the RSS key # - Wangxun (ngbe/txgbe): # - implement irq_domain for TXGBE's sub-interrupts # - Pensando/AMD: # - support XDP # - optimize queue submission and wakeup handling (+17% bps) # - optimize struct layout, saving 28% of memory on queues # # - Ethernet NICs embedded and virtual: # - Google cloud vNIC: # - refactor driver to perform memory allocations for new queue # config before stopping and freeing the old queue memory # - Synopsys (stmmac): # - obey queueMaxSDU and implement counters required by 802.1Qbv # - Renesas (ravb): # - support packet checksum offload # - suspend to RAM and runtime PM support # # - Ethernet switches: # - nVidia/Mellanox: # - support for nexthop group statistics # - Microchip: # - ksz8: implement PHY loopback # - add support for KSZ8567, a 7-port 10/100Mbps switch # # - PTP: # - New driver for RENESAS FemtoClock3 Wireless clock generator. # - Support OCP PTP cards designed and built by Adva. # # - CAN: # - Support recvmsg() flags for own, local and remote traffic on CAN # BCM sockets. # - Support for esd GmbH PCIe/402 CAN device family. # - m_can: # - Rx/Tx submission coalescing # - wake on frame Rx # # - WiFi: # - Intel (iwlwifi): # - enable signaling and payload protected A-MSDUs # - support wider-bandwidth OFDMA # - support for new devices # - bump FW API to 89 for AX devices;
