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 5 seconds or less, after a few minutes with
the preferred lifetime set to 6 seconds, and not at all with the
preferred lifetime set to 7 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 5 or 6 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 setting /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/*/regen_min_advance
and /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.

In RFC 8981, REGEN_ADVANCE cannot be less than 2 seconds, and the RFC
does not permit the creation of temporary addresses with lifetimes
shorter than that:
> When processing a Router Advertisement with a
> Prefix Information option carrying a prefix for the purposes of
> address autoconfiguration (i.e., the A bit is set), the host MUST
> perform the following steps:
> 5. A temporary address is created only if this calculated preferred

However, some users want to change their IPv6 address as frequently as
possible regardless of the RFC's arbitrary minimum lifetime. For the
benefit of those users, add a regen_min_advance sysctl parameter that
can be set to below or above 2 seconds.

RFC 8981 defines REGEN_ADVANCE as follows:
REGEN_ADVANCE = 2 + (TEMP_IDGEN_RETRIES * DupAddrDetectTransmits * RetransTimer / 1000)
Thus, allowing it to be less than 2 seconds is technically a protocol

CAN RAW sockets allow userspace to tell if a received CAN frame comes
from the same socket, another socket on the same host, or another host.
See commit 1e55659ce6 ("can-raw: add msg_flags to distinguish local
traffic"). However, this feature is missing in CAN BCM sockets.
Add the same feature to CAN BCM sockets. When reading a received frame
(opcode RX_CHANGED) using recvmsg, two flags in msg->msg_flags may be
set following the previous convention (from CAN RAW), to distinguish
between 'own', 'local' and 'remote' CAN traffic.
Update the documentation to reflect this change.

Add support for the independent control state machine per IEEE
802.1AX-2008 5.4.15 in addition to the existing implementation of the
coupled control state machine.
Introduces two new states, AD_MUX_COLLECTING and AD_MUX_DISTRIBUTING in
the LACP MUX state machine for separated handling of an initial
Collecting state before the Collecting and Distributing state. This
enables a port to be in a state where it can receive incoming packets
while not still distributing. This is useful for reducing packet loss when
a port begins distributing before its partner is able to collect.
Added new functions such as bond_set_slave_tx_disabled_flags and
bond_set_slave_rx_enabled_flags to precisely manage the port's collecting
and distributing states. Previously, there was no dedicated method to
disable TX while keeping RX enabled, which this patch addresses.
Note that the regular flow process in the kernel's bonding driver remains
unaffected by this patch. The extension requires explicit opt-in by the
user (in order to ensure no disruptions for existing setups) via netlink
support using the new bonding parameter coupled_control. The default value
for coupled_control is set to 1 so as to preserve existing behaviour.

Core & protocols
----------------
- Analyze and reorganize core networking structs (socks, netdev,
netns, mibs) to optimize cacheline consumption and set up
build time warnings to safeguard against future header changes.
This improves TCP performances with many concurrent connections
up to 40%.
- Add page-pool netlink-based introspection, exposing the
memory usage and recycling stats. This helps indentify
bad PP users and possible leaks.
- Refine TCP/DCCP source port selection to no longer favor even
source port at connect() time when IP_LOCAL_PORT_RANGE is set.
This lowers the time taken by connect() for hosts having
many active connections to the same destination.
- Refactor the TCP bind conflict code, shrinking related socket
structs.
- Refactor TCP SYN-Cookie handling, as a preparation step to
allow arbitrary SYN-Cookie processing via eBPF.
- Tune optmem_max for 0-copy usage, increasing the default value
to 128KB and namespecifying it.
- Allow coalescing for cloned skbs coming from page pools, improving
RX performances with some common configurations.
- Reduce extension header parsing overhead at GRO time.
- Add bridge MDB bulk deletion support, allowing user-space to
request the deletion of matching entries.
- Reorder nftables struct members, to keep data accessed by the
datapath first.
- Introduce TC block ports tracking and use. This allows supporting
multicast-like behavior at the TC layer.
- Remove UAPI support for retired TC qdiscs (dsmark, CBQ and ATM) and
classifiers (RSVP and tcindex).
- More data-race annotations.
- Extend the diag interface to dump TCP bound-only sockets.
- Conditional notification of events for TC qdisc class and actions.
- Support for WPAN dynamic associations with nearby devices, to form
a sub-network using a specific PAN ID.
- Implement SMCv2.1 virtual ISM device support.
- Add support for Batman-avd mulicast packet type.
BPF
---
- Tons of verifier improvements:
- BPF register bounds logic and range support along with a large
test suite
- log improvements
- complete precision tracking support for register spills
- track aligned STACK_ZERO cases as imprecise spilled registers. It
improves the verifier "instructions processed" metric from single
digit to 50-60% for some programs
- support for user's global BPF subprogram arguments with few
commonly requested annotations for a better developer experience
- support tracking of BPF_JNE which helps cases when the compiler
transforms (unsigned) "a > 0" into "if a == 0 goto xxx" and the
like
- several fixes
- Add initial TX metadata implementation for AF_XDP with support in
mlx5 and stmmac drivers. Two types of offloads are supported right
now, that is, TX timestamp and TX checksum offload.
- Fix kCFI bugs in BPF all forms of indirect calls from BPF into
kernel and from kernel into BPF work with CFI enabled. This allows
BPF to work with CONFIG_FINEIBT=y.
- Change BPF verifier logic to validate global subprograms lazily
instead of unconditionally before the main program, so they can be
guarded using BPF CO-RE techniques.
- Support uid/gid options when mounting bpffs.
- Add a new kfunc which acquires the associated cgroup of a task
within a specific cgroup v1 hierarchy where the latter is identified
by its id.
- Extend verifier to allow bpf_refcount_acquire() of a map value field
obtained via direct load which is a use-case needed in sched_ext.
- Add BPF link_info support for uprobe multi link along with bpftool
integration for the latter.
- Support for VLAN tag in XDP hints.
- Remove deprecated bpfilter kernel leftovers given the project
is developed in user-space (https://github.com/facebook/bpfilter).
Misc
----
- Support for parellel TC self-tests execution.
- Increase MPTCP self-tests coverage.
- Updated the bridge documentation, including several so-far
undocumented features.
- Convert all the net self-tests to run in unique netns, to
avoid random failures due to conflict and allow concurrent
runs.
- Add TCP-AO self-tests.
- Add kunit tests for both cfg80211 and mac80211.
- Autogenerate Netlink families documentation from YAML spec.
- Add yml-gen support for fixed headers and recursive nests, the
tool can now generate user-space code for all genetlink families
for which we have specs.
- A bunch of additional module descriptions fixes.
- Catch incorrect freeing of pages belonging to a page pool.
Driver API
----------
- Rust abstractions for network PHY drivers; do not cover yet the
full C API, but already allow implementing functional PHY drivers
in rust.
- Introduce queue and NAPI support in the netdev Netlink interface,
allowing complete access to the device <> NAPIs <> queues
relationship.
- Introduce notifications filtering for devlink to allow control
application scale to thousands of instances.
- Improve PHY validation, requesting rate matching information for
each ethtool link mode supported by both the PHY and host.
- Add support for ethtool symmetric-xor RSS hash.
- ACPI based Wifi band RFI (WBRF) mitigation feature for the AMD
platform.
- Expose pin fractional frequency offset value over new DPLL generic
netlink attribute.
- Convert older drivers to platform remove callback returning void.
- Add support for PHY package MMD read/write.

Merge tag 'net-next-6.8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next
Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
"The most interesting thing is probably the networking structs
reorganization and a significant amount of changes is around
self-tests.
Core & protocols:
- Analyze and reorganize core networking structs (socks, netdev,
netns, mibs) to optimize cacheline consumption and set up build
time warnings to safeguard against future header changes
This improves TCP performances with many concurrent connections up
to 40%
- Add page-pool netlink-based introspection, exposing the memory
usage and recycling stats. This helps indentify bad PP users and
possible leaks
- Refine TCP/DCCP source port selection to no longer favor even
source port at connect() time when IP_LOCAL_PORT_RANGE is set. This
lowers the time taken by connect() for hosts having many active
connections to the same destination
- Refactor the TCP bind conflict code, shrinking related socket
structs
- Refactor TCP SYN-Cookie handling, as a preparation step to allow
arbitrary SYN-Cookie processing via eBPF
- Tune optmem_max for 0-copy usage, increasing the default value to
128KB and namespecifying it
- Allow coalescing for cloned skbs coming from page pools, improving
RX performances with some common configurations
- Reduce extension header parsing overhead at GRO time
- Add bridge MDB bulk deletion support, allowing user-space to
request the deletion of matching entries
- Reorder nftables struct members, to keep data accessed by the
datapath first
- Introduce TC block ports tracking and use. This allows supporting
multicast-like behavior at the TC layer
- Remove UAPI support for retired TC qdiscs (dsmark, CBQ and ATM) and
classifiers (RSVP and tcindex)
- More data-race annotations
- Extend the diag interface to dump TCP bound-only sockets
- Conditional notification of events for TC qdisc class and actions
- Support for WPAN dynamic associations with nearby devices, to form
a sub-network using a specific PAN ID
- Implement SMCv2.1 virtual ISM device support
- Add support for Batman-avd mulicast packet type
BPF:
- Tons of verifier improvements:
- BPF register bounds logic and range support along with a large
test suite
- log improvements
- complete precision tracking support for register spills
- track aligned STACK_ZERO cases as imprecise spilled registers.
This improves the verifier "instructions processed" metric from
single digit to 50-60% for some programs
- support for user's global BPF subprogram arguments with few
commonly requested annotations for a better developer
experience
- support tracking of BPF_JNE which helps cases when the compiler
transforms (unsigned) "a > 0" into "if a == 0 goto xxx" and the
like
- several fixes
- Add initial TX metadata implementation for AF_XDP with support in
mlx5 and stmmac drivers. Two types of offloads are supported right
now, that is, TX timestamp and TX checksum offload
- Fix kCFI bugs in BPF all forms of indirect calls from BPF into
kernel and from kernel into BPF work with CFI enabled. This allows
BPF to work with CONFIG_FINEIBT=y
- Change BPF verifier logic to validate global subprograms lazily
instead of unconditionally before the main program, so they can be
guarded using BPF CO-RE techniques
- Support uid/gid options when mounting bpffs
- Add a new kfunc which acquires the associated cgroup of a task
within a specific cgroup v1 hierarchy where the latter is
identified by its id
- Extend verifier to allow bpf_refcount_acquire() of a map value
field obtained via direct load which is a use-case needed in
sched_ext
- Add BPF link_info support for uprobe multi link along with bpftool
integration for the latter
- Support for VLAN tag in XDP hints
- Remove deprecated bpfilter kernel leftovers given the project is
developed in user-space (https://github.com/facebook/bpfilter)
Misc:
- Support for parellel TC self-tests execution
- Increase MPTCP self-tests coverage
- Updated the bridge documentation, including several so-far
undocumented features
- Convert all the net self-tests to run in unique netns, to avoid
random failures due to conflict and allow concurrent runs
- Add TCP-AO self-tests
- Add kunit tests for both cfg80211 and mac80211
- Autogenerate Netlink families documentation from YAML spec
- Add yml-gen support for fixed headers and recursive nests, the tool
can now generate user-space code for all genetlink families for
which we have specs
- A bunch of additional module descriptions fixes
- Catch incorrect freeing of pages belonging to a page pool
Driver API:
- Rust abstractions for network PHY drivers; do not cover yet the
full C API, but already allow implementing functional PHY drivers
in rust
- Introduce queue and NAPI support in the netdev Netlink interface,
allowing complete access to the device <> NAPIs <> queues
relationship
- Introduce notifications filtering for devlink to allow control
application scale to thousands of instances
- Improve PHY validation, requesting rate matching information for
each ethtool link mode supported by both the PHY and host
- Add support for ethtool symmetric-xor RSS hash
- ACPI based Wifi band RFI (WBRF) mitigation feature for the AMD
platform
- Expose pin fractional frequency offset value over new DPLL generic
netlink attribute
- Convert older drivers to platform remove callback returning void
- Add support for PHY package MMD read/write

Merge tag 'for-netdev' of https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/bpf/bpf-next
Alexei Starovoitov says:
====================
pull-request: bpf-next 2023-12-18
This PR is larger than usual and contains changes in various parts
of the kernel.
The main changes are:
1) Fix kCFI bugs in BPF, from Peter Zijlstra.
End result: all forms of indirect calls from BPF into kernel
and from kernel into BPF work with CFI enabled. This allows BPF
to work with CONFIG_FINEIBT=y.
2) Introduce BPF token object, from Andrii Nakryiko.
It adds an ability to delegate a subset of BPF features from privileged
daemon (e.g., systemd) through special mount options for userns-bound
BPF FS to a trusted unprivileged application. The design accommodates
suggestions from Christian Brauner and Paul Moore.
Example:
$ sudo mkdir -p /sys/fs/bpf/token
$ sudo mount -t bpf bpffs /sys/fs/bpf/token \
-o delegate_cmds=prog_load:MAP_CREATE \
-o delegate_progs=kprobe \
-o delegate_attachs=xdp
3) Various verifier improvements and fixes, from Andrii Nakryiko, Andrei Matei.
- Complete precision tracking support for register spills
- Fix verification of possibly-zero-sized stack accesses
- Fix access to uninit stack slots
- Track aligned STACK_ZERO cases as imprecise spilled registers.
It improves the verifier "instructions processed" metric from single
digit to 50-60% for some programs.
- Fix verifier retval logic
4) Support for VLAN tag in XDP hints, from Larysa Zaremba.
5) Allocate BPF trampoline via bpf_prog_pack mechanism, from Song Liu.
End result: better memory utilization and lower I$ miss for calls to BPF
via BPF trampoline.
6) Fix race between BPF prog accessing inner map and parallel delete,
from Hou Tao.
7) Add bpf_xdp_get_xfrm_state() kfunc, from Daniel Xu.
It allows BPF interact with IPSEC infra. The intent is to support
software RSS (via XDP) for the upcoming ipsec pcpu work.
Experiments on AWS demonstrate single tunnel pcpu ipsec reaching
line rate on 100G ENA nics.
8) Expand bpf_cgrp_storage to support cgroup1 non-attach, from Yafang Shao.
9) BPF file verification via fsverity, from Song Liu.
It allows BPF progs get fsverity digest.

Symmetric RSS hash functions are beneficial in applications that monitor
both Tx and Rx packets of the same flow (IDS, software firewalls, ..etc).
Getting all traffic of the same flow on the same RX queue results in
higher CPU cache efficiency.
A NIC that supports "symmetric-xor" can achieve this RSS hash symmetry
by XORing the source and destination fields and pass the values to the
RSS hash algorithm.
The user may request RSS hash symmetry for a specific algorithm, via:
# ethtool -X eth0 hfunc <hash_alg> symmetric-xor
or turn symmetry off (asymmetric) by:
# ethtool -X eth0 hfunc <hash_alg>
The specific fields for each flow type should then be specified as usual
via:
# ethtool -N|-U eth0 rx-flow-hash <flow_type> s|d|f|n

TCP got MSG_EOR support in linux-4.7.
This is a canonical way of making sure no coalescing

Implement functionality that enables drivers to expose VLAN tag
to XDP code.
VLAN tag is represented by 2 variables:
- protocol ID, which is passed to bpf code in BE
- VLAN TCI, in host byte order
