Merge tag 'net-6.6-rc7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net
Pull networking fixes from Jakub Kicinski:
"Including fixes from bluetooth, netfilter, WiFi.
Feels like an up-tick in regression fixes, mostly for older releases.
The hfsc fix, tcp_disconnect() and Intel WWAN fixes stand out as
fairly clear-cut user reported regressions. The mlx5 DMA bug was
causing strife for 390x folks. The fixes themselves are not
particularly scary, tho. No open investigations / outstanding reports
at the time of writing.
Current release - regressions:
- eth: mlx5: perform DMA operations in the right locations, make
devices usable on s390x, again
- sched: sch_hfsc: upgrade 'rt' to 'sc' when it becomes a inner
curve, previous fix of rejecting invalid config broke some scripts
- rfkill: reduce data->mtx scope in rfkill_fop_open, avoid deadlock
- revert "ethtool: Fix mod state of verbose no_mask bitset", needs
more work
Current release - new code bugs:
- tcp: fix listen() warning with v4-mapped-v6 address
Previous releases - regressions:
- tcp: allow tcp_disconnect() again when threads are waiting, it was
denied to plug a constant source of bugs but turns out .NET depends
on it
- eth: mlx5: fix double-free if buffer refill fails under OOM
- revert "net: wwan: iosm: enable runtime pm support for 7560", it's
causing regressions and the WWAN team at Intel disappeared
- tcp: tsq: relax tcp_small_queue_check() when rtx queue contains a
single skb, fix single-stream perf regression on some devices
Previous releases - always broken:
- Bluetooth:
- fix issues in legacy BR/EDR PIN code pairing
- correctly bounds check and pad HCI_MON_NEW_INDEX name
- netfilter:
- more fixes / follow ups for the large "commit protocol" rework,
which went in as a fix to 6.5
- fix null-derefs on netlink attrs which user may not pass in
- tcp: fix excessive TLP and RACK timeouts from HZ rounding (bless
Debian for keeping HZ=250 alive)
- net: more strict VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_UDP_L4 validation, prevent
letting frankenstein UDP super-frames from getting into the stack
- net: fix interface altnames when ifc moves to a new namespace
- eth: qed: fix the size of the RX buffers
- mptcp: avoid sending RST when closing the initial subflow"
