70f5376dbd TTY / Serial driver updates for 7.3-rc1
Here is the "big" set of tty and serial driver updates for 7.3-rc1.  Not
 really all that much happened this development cycle for this subsystem,
 changes in here are:
   - removal of the ipwireless driver as it's no longer used or needed
   - new 8250_mxpcie driver added
   - qcom serial driver updates and additions
   - vt mode validation addition
   - lots of other small serial driver updates and additions
 
 All of these have been in linux-next for weeks with no reported issues.

91ec203513 Networking changes for 7.3.
Core & protocols
 ----------------
 
  - A few steps lowering rtnl_lock dependence:
    - per-netns netdev unregistration for select SW drivers
      (e.g. veth, ipvlan, tunnels)
    - rtnl_lock-less FIB rule changes (RTM_NEWRULE and RTM_DELRULE)
    - prepare software drivers and TC qdiscs for rtnl_lock-less GET
 
  - Support BIG TCP (>64kB TSO) in UDP tunnels (vxlan, geneve).

Merge tag 'net-next-7.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
 "One of the 'small improvements all over the place' releases for us.

  It's hard to draw any direct comparisons because summer vacations
  disrupted our patch processing (and presumably - generation) quite a
  bit.

  Quick and dirty count suggests we (Paolo and I) merged a very similar
  number of net (632) and net-next (648) patches. This is not telling
  the full story either because 1/3 to 1/2 of the net-next patches also
  *seem* like AI-driven low priority fixes, cleanups and clarifications.

  We are completely overwhelmed, of course. The glimmer of hope is that
  we secured sufficient LLM budget and access (thank you Meta!) to run
  reviews with multiple frontier models on each patch. This eliminates
  some hallucinations. That said, in terms of review, the LLMs can only
  do so much.

  The sad truth is that our APIs (especially for rare events like PCIe
  errors, timeouts etc) have always been racy, and now LLMs don't let us
  ignore that. I expect our direction for the next release will be to
  tweak the reviews a little bit more, but start shifting focus to
  letting the LLMs take care of the busy work - managing patchwork,
  automating common process complaints, editing commit messages, and
  maybe applying patches which already got "reviewed-by" tags from
  people we trust...

66da1ae196 gpio: move ppc4xx gpio driver from arch/powerpc to drivers/gpio
Move the ppc4xx gpio driver out of arch/powerpc/platforms/44x/ into
drivers/gpio/gpio-ppc44x.c. The driver has no architecture-specific
dependencies and follows the same pattern as other PowerPC GPIO
drivers already in drivers/gpio/ (e.g. gpio-mpc8xxx, gpio-mpc5200).

- Renamed Kconfig symbol from PPC4xx_GPIO to GPIO_PPC44X
- Updated ppc44x_defconfig and warp_defconfig to use the new symbol
- Marked the new option as tristate (was bool) since the driver
  supports module build via module_platform_driver()

ff3a8694c2 net: tulip: remove xircom_cb driver
A possible bug was found in investigate_read_descriptor() and a fix was
proposed. Since this is an orphan driver for hardware that is old,
removing the driver was suggested instead. This patch removes the driver.

355b329694 tty: remove the ipwireless driver
The last mentions of this driver on local Linux and telco support forums
date back to 2011. This does not prove that no users remain, but the
likelihood is too low to justify continuing to carry the driver in the
kernel.

The maintainer agreed that the driver should be removed and noted that it
is simple enough to build as an external module if a user resurfaces [1].

Remove the driver along with its Kconfig, defconfig, build and MAINTAINERS
entries.

8a398a0c18 appletalk: move the protocol out of tree
AppleTalk has been removed in MacOS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard), in 2009,
according to Wikipedia. We recently got a burst of AI generated
fixes to this protocol which nobody is reviewing.

Let AppleTalk follow AX.25 and hamradio out of the Linux tree.
We we will maintain the code at: github.com/linux-netdev/mod-orphan
for anyone interested in playing with it.

Retain the uAPI for now. No strong reason, simply because I suspect
keeping it will be less controversial.

794b5e7727 bluetooth: remove all PCMCIA drivers
PCMCIA is almost completely obsolete (the last computers supporting it
natively were from ~2009), and the general consensus [1] seems to be
that support for it should be gradually removed from the kernel.

In 2023, an initial step of removing all the PCMCIA char drivers was
taken in commit 9b12f050c7 ("char: pcmcia: remove all the drivers"),
and that has not been reverted, so it seems logical to continue this
process by removing more low-hanging fruit.

These three Bluetooth drivers have had no meaningful changes since
their status was discussed in 2022 [2], and are unlikely to have any
remaining users. The latest functional change to any of them was a
patch to bluecard_cs to fix LED blinking behavior in 2017. The other
two drivers have not had any meaningful changes made since 2007. Remove
them.

Note that even with these drivers removed, it is still possible to use
other PCMCIA Bluetooth cards that present themselves as a standard
serial port via serial_cs and hciattach while the serial_cs driver is
still present.

1967bfaf7b crypto: pcbc - Remove support for PCBC mode
The only user of PCBC mode (Propagating Cipher Block Chaining mode) was
net/rxrpc/rxkad.c, which now uses local code instead.

While PCBC was an interesting cryptographic experiment, it has largely
been relegated to the history books and academic exercises.  It is
non-parallelizable (i.e., very slow) and doesn't actually achieve the
integrity properties it was apparently intended to achieve.

Remove support for it from the crypto API.

374efbdc85 crypto: fcrypt - Remove support for FCrypt block cipher
Remove the insecure FCrypt block cipher from the crypto API.  Its only
user was net/rxrpc/, but now net/rxrpc/ implements it locally.  The
crypto API implementation is no longer needed.

For some additional context: FCrypt was designed in 1988 and is
essentially a weakened version of DES.  It has the same 56-bit key size
as DES, which is easily brute forced.  Moreover, it's cryptographically
weak and doesn't even provide the intended 56-bit security level.  Its
author considers it to be a mistake, as well
(https://lists.openafs.org/pipermail/openafs-devel/2000-December/005320.html).

But fortunately this 1980s-era homebrew block cipher was never adopted
outside of net/rxrpc/.  So its code can just be kept there.

160625174a char: dtlk: remove driver for ISA speech synthesizer card
The dtlk driver supports the RC Systems DoubleTalk PC ISA speech
synthesizer card. It has severe coding style issues and has only
received tree-wide fixes and drive-by cleanups in the entire Git
history (since Linux 2.6.12-rc2). The same hardware is supported by
drivers/accessibility/speakup for screen reader use, but that
implementation does not share any code with this driver. Given all of
these factors, it is likely the driver is entirely unused. Remove it to
reduce future maintenance workload.

61848e9799 tty: synclink_gt: remove broken driver
The synclink_gt driver was marked as broken in commit 426263d5fb
("tty: synclink_gt: mark as BROKEN") in July 2023 because it had severe
structural problems and there had been no evidence of users since 2016.
Since then, no meaningful improvements have been made to the driver,
and it is unlikely that will ever happen due to the lack of interest.
Drop the driver and references to it in comments and documentation.
include/uapi/linux/synclink.h is also removed. The only use of this
header I have found is the linux-raw-sys Rust crate. It generates
bindings for all UAPI headers, but has a hardcoded list of headers and
ioctls, including this one, so that does not indicate that anyone is
using it. I have sent a pull request to remove the include and ioctl
definitions for this header (see the link below).

64edfa6506 Delete some obsolete networking code
Old code like amateur radio and NFC have long been a burden
 to core networking developers. syzbot loves to find bugs
 in BKL-era code, and noobs try to fix them.
 
 If we want to have a fighting chance of surviving the LLM-pocalypse
 this code needs to find a dedicated owner or get deleted.
 We've talked about these deletions multiple times in the past
 and every time someone wanted the code to stay. It is never
 very clear to me how many of those people actually use the code
 vs are just nostalgic to see it go. Amateur radio did have
 occasional users (or so I think) but most users switched
 to user space implementations since its all super slow stuff.
 Nobody stepped up to maintain the kernel code.
 
 We were lucky enough to find someone who wants to help with NFC
 so we're giving that a chance. Let's try to put the rest of
 this code behind us.

Pull networking deletions from Jakub Kicinski:
 "Delete some obsolete networking code

  Old code like amateur radio and NFC have long been a burden to core
  networking developers. syzbot loves to find bugs in BKL-era code, and
  noobs try to fix them.

  If we want to have a fighting chance of surviving the LLM-pocalypse
  this code needs to find a dedicated owner or get deleted. We've talked
  about these deletions multiple times in the past and every time
  someone wanted the code to stay. It is never very clear to me how many
  of those people actually use the code vs are just nostalgic to see it
  go. Amateur radio did have occasional users (or so I think) but most
  users switched to user space implementations since its all super slow
  stuff. Nobody stepped up to maintain the kernel code.

  We were lucky enough to find someone who wants to help with NFC so
  we're giving that a chance. Let's try to put the rest of this code
  behind us"

aec3202247 net: packetengines: remove obsolete yellowfin driver and vendor dir
Similar to the hamachi driver, the yellowfin driver supports hardware
that is over two decades old and no longer in active use.

Since yellowfin was the last remaining driver in the packetengines
vendor directory, we can now safely remove the entire directory and
drop its associated references from the parent Kconfig and Makefile.

This eliminates dead code and reduces the overall maintenance burden
on the netdev subsystem.

8c6d03b7a2 crypto: Remove michael_mic from crypto_shash API
Remove the "michael_mic" crypto_shash algorithm, since it's no longer
used.  Its only users were wireless drivers, which have now been
converted to use the michael_mic() function instead.

It makes sense that no other users ever appeared: Michael MIC is an
insecure algorithm that is specific to WPA TKIP, which itself was an
interim security solution to replace the broken WEP standard.

b3c26ea81c pcmcia: remove obsolete host controller drivers
PCMCIA is almost completely obsolete (the last computers supporting it
natively were from ~2009), and the general consensus [1] seems to be
that support for it should be gradually removed from the kernel.

In 2023, an initial step of removing all the PCMCIA char drivers was
taken in commit 9b12f050c7 ("char: pcmcia: remove all the drivers"),
and that has not been reverted, so it seems logical to continue this
process by removing more low-hanging fruit.

These host controller drivers have had no meaningful changes since
their status was discussed in 2022 [2], and are unlikely to have any
remaining users. Remove them and a couple references to them
in comments.

The i82365 and tcic drivers are for ISA-attached host controllers,
which are even less likely to be used nowadays than ones on other buses.

The i82092 driver has almost certainly not been used in over 20 years.
It was broken by a null pointer dereference since the dawn of Git
history (2.6.12-rc2 in 2005) until someone fixed it in 2021 in commit
e39cdacf2f ("pcmcia: i82092: fix a null pointer dereference bug").
From their dmesg log [3], it is clear they were testing in an emulated
environment and not on real hardware.

i82365.h is used by drivers other than i82365 and is therefore retained.

aba0138eb7 net: ethernet: neterion: s2io: remove unused driver
The s2io driver supports Exar (formerly Neterion and S2io) PCI-X 10
Gigabit Ethernet cards. Hardware supporting PCI-X has not been
manufactured in years. On x86, it was quickly replaced by PCIe. While
it stuck around longer on POWER hardware, the last POWER hardware to
support it was POWER7, which is not supported by ppc64le Linux
distributions. The last supported mainstream ppc64 Linux distribution
was RHEL 7; while it is still supported under ELS, ELS is only
available for x86 and IBM Z. It is possible to use many PCI-X cards in
standard PCI slots (which are still available on new motherboards), but
it does not make sense to do so for 10 Gigabit Ethernet because the
maximum bandwidth of standard PCI is only 1067 Mbps. It is therefore
highly unlikely that this driver is still being used. Remove the
driver, and move the former maintainer to the CREDITS file (restoring
credit for the vxge driver, which was removed in commit f05643a0f6
("eth: remove neterion/vxge").

d30aca3eef lib/tests: convert test_min_heap module to KUnit
Move lib/test_min_heap.c to lib/tests/min_heap_kunit.c and convert it to
use KUnit.

This change switches the ad-hoc test code to standard KUnit test cases. 
The test data remains the same, but the verification logic is updated to
use KUNIT_EXPECT_* macros.

Also remove CONFIG_TEST_MIN_HEAP from arch/*/configs/* because it is no
longer used.  The new CONFIG_MIN_HEAP_KUNIT_TEST will be automatically
enabled by CONFIG_KUNIT_ALL_TESTS.

The reasons for converting to KUnit are:

1. Standardization:
    Switching from ad-hoc printk-based reporting to the standard
    KTAP format makes it easier for CI systems to parse and report test
    results

2. Better Diagnostics:
    Using KUNIT_EXPECT_* macros automatically provides detailed
    diagnostics on failure.

3. Tooling Integration:
    It allows the test to be managed and executed using standard
    KUnit tools.

e700f5d156 watchdog: softlockup: panic when lockup duration exceeds N thresholds
The softlockup_panic sysctl is currently a binary option: panic
immediately or never panic on soft lockups.

Panicking on any soft lockup, regardless of duration, can be overly
aggressive for brief stalls that may be caused by legitimate operations. 
Conversely, never panicking may allow severe system hangs to persist
undetected.

Extend softlockup_panic to accept an integer threshold, allowing the
kernel to panic only when the normalized lockup duration exceeds N
watchdog threshold periods.  This provides finer-grained control to
distinguish between transient delays and persistent system failures.

The accepted values are:
- 0: Don't panic (unchanged)
- 1: Panic when duration >= 1 * threshold (20s default, original behavior)
- N > 1: Panic when duration >= N * threshold (e.g., 2 = 40s, 3 = 60s.)

The original behavior is preserved for values 0 and 1, maintaining full
backward compatibility while allowing systems to tolerate brief lockups
while still catching severe, persistent hangs.

 trivial fixes.
 
 - Default disablement of the kconfig for decades old pre-release
   alsa-lib PCM API; it's only the default config value change, so
   it can't lead to any regressions for the existing setups
 - Support for CIX HD-audio controller

37d55c92e9 serial: drop SERIAL_8250_DEPRECATED_OPTIONS
In 3.7, 8250 was unintentionally renamed to 8250_core. This happened in
the commit 835d844d1a (8250_pnp: do pnp probe before legacy probe).
This made 8250.<xxxx> module options effectively defunct. Instead,
8250_core.<xxxx> worked.

In 3.9, the commit f2b8dfd9e4 (serial: 8250: Keep 8250.<xxxx> module
options functional after driver rename) made the original options work
again by introducing a hack.

Later in 3.9, the commit 9196d8acd7 (TTY: 8250, revert module name
change) changed the module name back to 8250 (from 8250_core). Since
then, the hack was there to support the transient 8250_core.<xxxx>
options. Those were present only in the 3.7..3.9 range.

These transient options were deprecated by 9326b047e4 (TTY: 8250,
deprecated 8250_core.* options) in v3.9 too.

Now, after those 12 years, it is time to get rid of this hack
completely.

- Add a RISC-V optimized implementation of Poly1305. This code was

 - Migrate the MD5 code into lib/crypto/, and add KUnit tests for MD5.
   Yes, it's still the 90s, and several kernel subsystems are still using
   MD5 for legacy use cases. As long as that remains the case, it's
   helpful to clean it up in the same way as I've been doing for other
   algorithms. Later, I plan to convert most of these users of MD5 to use
   the new MD5 library API instead of the generic crypto API.
 
 - Simplify the organization of the ChaCha, Poly1305, BLAKE2s, and
   Curve25519 code. Consolidate these into one module per algorithm,
   and centralize the configuration and build process. This is the same
   reorganization that has already been successful for SHA-1 and SHA-2.
 
 - Remove the unused crypto_kpp API for Curve25519.
 
 - Migrate the BLAKE2s and Curve25519 self-tests to KUnit.
 
 - Always enable the architecture-optimized BLAKE2s code.
 
 Due to interdependencies between test and non-test code, both are
 included in this pull request. The broken-down diffstat is as follows:
 
     Tests:            735 insertions(+), 1917 deletions(-)
     RISC-V Poly1305:  877 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-)
     Other:           1777 insertions(+), 3117 deletions(-)
 
 Besides the new RISC-V code which is an addition, there are quite a
 few simplifications due to the improved code organization for multiple
 algorithms, the removal of the unused crypto_kpp API for Curve25519
 and redundant tests, and the redesign of the BLAKE2s test.

Instead of exposing the powerpc-optimized MD5 code via powerpc-specific
crypto_shash algorithms, instead just implement the md5_blocks() library
function.  This is much simpler, it makes the MD5 library functions be
powerpc-optimized, and it fixes the longstanding issue where the
powerpc-optimized MD5 code was disabled by default.  MD5 still remains
available through crypto_shash, but individual architectures no longer
need to handle it.

8be4d31cb8 Networking changes for 6.17.
Core & 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

Merge tag 'net-next-6.17' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
 "Core & 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
