<content type='text'>
Tunnel xmit functions (iptunnel_xmit, ip6tunnel_xmit) lack their own
recursion limit. When a bond device in broadcast mode has GRE tap
interfaces as slaves, and those GRE tunnels route back through the
bond, multicast/broadcast traffic triggers infinite recursion between
bond_xmit_broadcast() and ip_tunnel_xmit()/ip6_tnl_xmit(), causing
kernel stack overflow.

The existing XMIT_RECURSION_LIMIT (8) in the no-qdisc path is not
sufficient because tunnel recursion involves route lookups and full IP
output, consuming much more stack per level. Use a lower limit of 4
(IP_TUNNEL_RECURSION_LIMIT) to prevent overflow.

Add recursion detection using dev_xmit_recursion helpers directly in
iptunnel_xmit() and ip6tunnel_xmit() to cover all IPv4/IPv6 tunnel
paths including UDP encapsulated tunnels (VXLAN, Geneve, etc.).

Move dev_xmit_recursion helpers from net/core/dev.h to public header
include/linux/netdevice.h so they can be used by tunnel code.

I imagine (tm) that as the number of per-queue configuration
options grows some of them may conflict for certain drivers.
While the drivers can obviously do all the validation locally
doing so is fairly inconvenient as the config is fed to drivers
piecemeal via different ops (for different params and NIC-wide
vs per-queue).

Add a centralized callback for validating the queue config
in queue ops. The callback gets invoked before memory provider
is installed, and in the future should also be called when ring
params are modified.

The validation is done after each layer of configuration.
Since we can't fail MP un-binding we must make sure that
the config is valid both before and after MP overrides are
applied. This is moot for now since the set of MP and device
configs are disjoint. It will matter significantly in the future,
so adding it now so that we don't forget..

Implement netdev_nl_queue_create_doit which creates a new rx queue in a
virtual netdev and then leases it to a rx queue in a physical netdev.

Example with ynl client:

  # ./pyynl/cli.py \
      --spec ~/netlink/specs/netdev.yaml \
      --do queue-create \
      --json '{"ifindex": 8, "type": "rx", "lease": {"ifindex": 4, "queue": {"type": "rx", "id": 15}}}'
  {'id': 1}

Note that the netdevice locking order is always from the virtual to
the physical device.

Pull io_uring updates from Jens Axboe:

 - Unify how task_work cancelations are detected, placing it in the
   task_work running state rather than needing to check the task state

 - Series cleaning up and moving the cancelation code to where it
   belongs, in cancel.c

 - Cleanup of waitid and futex argument handling

 - Add support for mixed sized SQEs. 6.18 added support for mixed sized
   CQEs, improving flexibility and efficiency of workloads that need big
   CQEs. This adds similar support for SQEs, where the occasional need
   for a 128b SQE doesn't necessitate having all SQEs be 128b in size

 - Introduce zcrx and SQ/CQ layout queries. The former returns what zcrx
   features are available. And both return the ring size information to
   help with allocation size calculation for user provided rings like
   IORING_SETUP_NO_MMAP and IORING_MEM_REGION_TYPE_USER

 - Zcrx updates for 6.19. It includes a bunch of small patches,
   IORING_REGISTER_ZCRX_CTRL and RQ flushing and David's work on sharing
   zcrx b/w multiple io_uring instances

 - Series cleaning up ring initializations, notable deduplicating ring
   size and offset calculations. It also moves most of the checking
   before doing any allocations, making the code simpler

 - Add support for getsockname and getpeername, which is mostly a
   trivial hookup after a bit of refactoring on the networking side

 - Various fixes and cleanups

   IORING_SETUP_NO_MMAP and IORING_MEM_REGION_TYPE_USER

 - Zcrx updates for 6.19. It includes a bunch of small patches,
   IORING_REGISTER_ZCRX_CTRL and RQ flushing and David's work on sharing
   zcrx b/w multiple io_uring instances

 - Series cleaning up ring initializations, notable deduplicating ring
   size and offset calculations. It also moves most of the checking
   before doing any allocations, making the code simpler

 - Add support for getsockname and getpeername, which is mostly a
   trivial hookup after a bit of refactoring on the networking side

 - Various fixes and cleanups

Need to call netdev_get_by_index_lock() from io_uring/zcrx.c, but it is
currently private to net. Export the function in linux/netdevice.h.

<title>net: Extend NAPI threaded polling to allow kthread based busy polling</title>

<content type='text'>
Add a new state NAPI_STATE_THREADED_BUSY_POLL to the NAPI state enum to
enable and disable threaded busy polling.

When threaded busy polling is enabled for a NAPI, enable
NAPI_STATE_THREADED also.

When the threaded NAPI is scheduled, set NAPI_STATE_IN_BUSY_POLL to
signal napi_complete_done not to rearm interrupts.

Whenever NAPI_STATE_THREADED_BUSY_POLL is unset, the
NAPI_STATE_IN_BUSY_POLL will be unset, napi_complete_done unsets the
NAPI_STATE_SCHED_THREADED bit also, which in turn will make the kthread
go to sleep.

<title>net: prevent deadlocks when enabling NAPIs with mixed kthread config</title>

<content type='text'>
The following order of calls currently deadlocks if:
 - device has threaded=1; and
 - NAPI has persistent config with threaded=0.

  netif_napi_add_weight_config()
    dev-&gt;threaded == 1
      napi_kthread_create()

  napi_enable()
    napi_restore_config()
      napi_set_threaded(0)
        napi_stop_kthread()
	  while (NAPIF_STATE_SCHED)
	    msleep(20)

We deadlock because disabled NAPI has STATE_SCHED set.
Creating a thread in netif_napi_add() just to destroy it in
napi_disable() is fairly ugly in the first place. Let's read
both the device config and the NAPI config in netif_napi_add().
