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.

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").

HIPPI has not been relevant for over two decades. It was rapidly
eclipsed by Fibre Channel, and even when it was new, it was
confined to very high-end hardware. The HIPPI code has only
received tree-wide changes and fixes by inspection in the entire
Git history. Remove HIPPI support and the rrunner HIPPI driver,
and move the former maintainer to the CREDITS file. Keep the
include/uapi/linux/if_hippi.h header because it is used by the TUN
code, and to avoid breaking userspace, however unlikely that may be.

Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
"Core:
- Implement the Device Memory TCP transmit path, allowing zero-copy
data transmission on top of TCP from e.g. GPU memory to the wire.
- Move all the IPv6 routing tables management outside the RTNL scope,
under its own lock and RCU. The route control path is now 3x times
faster.
- Convert queue related netlink ops to instance lock, reducing again
the scope of the RTNL lock. This improves the control plane
scalability.
- Refactor the software crc32c implementation, removing unneeded
abstraction layers and improving significantly the related
micro-benchmarks.
- Optimize the GRO engine for UDP-tunneled traffic, for a 10%
performance improvement in related stream tests.
- Cover more per-CPU storage with local nested BH locking; this is a
prep work to remove the current per-CPU lock in local_bh_disable()
on PREMPT_RT.
- Introduce and use nlmsg_payload helper, combining buffer bounds
verification with accessing payload carried by netlink messages.
Netfilter:
- Rewrite the procfs conntrack table implementation, improving
considerably the dump performance. A lot of user-space tools still
use this interface.
- Implement support for wildcard netdevice in netdev basechain and
flowtables.
- Integrate conntrack information into nft trace infrastructure.
- Export set count and backend name to userspace, for better
introspection.
BPF:
- BPF qdisc support: BPF-qdisc can be implemented with BPF struct_ops
programs and can be controlled in similar way to traditional qdiscs
using the "tc qdisc" command.
- Refactor the UDP socket iterator, addressing long standing issues
WRT duplicate hits or missed sockets.
Protocols:
- Improve TCP receive buffer auto-tuning and increase the default
upper bound for the receive buffer; overall this improves the
single flow maximum thoughput on 200Gbs link by over 60%.
- Add AFS GSSAPI security class to AF_RXRPC; it provides transport
security for connections to the AFS fileserver and VL server.
- Improve TCP multipath routing, so that the sources address always
matches the nexthop device.
- Introduce SO_PASSRIGHTS for AF_UNIX, to allow disabling SCM_RIGHTS,
and thus preventing DoS caused by passing around problematic FDs.
- Retire DCCP socket. DCCP only receives updates for bugs, and major
distros disable it by default. Its removal allows for better
organisation of TCP fields to reduce the number of cache lines hit
in the fast path.
- Extend TCP drop-reason support to cover PAWS checks.
Driver API:
- Reorganize PTP ioctl flag support to require an explicit opt-in for
the drivers, avoiding the problem of drivers not rejecting new
unsupported flags.
- Converted several device drivers to timestamping APIs.
- Introduce per-PHY ethtool dump helpers, improving the support for
dump operations targeting PHYs.
Tests and tooling:
- Add support for classic netlink in user space C codegen, so that
ynl-c can now read, create and modify links, routes addresses and
qdisc layer configuration.
- Add ynl sub-types for binary attributes, allowing ynl-c to output
known struct instead of raw binary data, clarifying the classic
netlink output.
- Extend MPTCP selftests to improve the code-coverage.
- Add tests for XDP tail adjustment in AF_XDP.
New hardware / drivers:
- OpenVPN virtual driver: offload OpenVPN data channels processing to
the kernel-space, increasing the data transfer throughput WRT the
user-space implementation.
- Renesas glue driver for the gigabit ethernet RZ/V2H(P) SoC.

DCCP was orphaned in 2021 by commit 054c4610bd ("MAINTAINERS: dccp:
move Gerrit Renker to CREDITS"), which noted that the last maintainer
had been inactive for five years.
In recent years, it has become a playground for syzbot, and most changes
to DCCP have been odd bug fixes triggered by syzbot. Apart from that,
the only changes have been driven by treewide or networking API updates
or adjustments related to TCP.
Thus, in 2023, we announced we would remove DCCP in 2025 via commit
b144fcaf46 ("dccp: Print deprecation notice.").
Since then, only one individual has contacted the netdev mailing list. [0]
There is ongoing research for Multipath DCCP. The repository is hosted
on GitHub [1], and development is not taking place through the upstream
community. While the repository is published under the GPLv2 license,
the scheduling part remains proprietary, with a LICENSE file [2] stating:
"This is not Open Source software."
The researcher mentioned a plan to address the licensing issue, upstream
the patches, and step up as a maintainer, but there has been no further
communication since then.
Maintaining DCCP for a decade without any real users has become a burden.
Therefore, it's time to remove it.
Removing DCCP will also provide significant benefits to TCP. It allows
us to freely reorganize the layout of struct inet_connection_sock, which
is currently shared with DCCP, and optimize it to reduce the number of
cachelines accessed in the TCP fast path.
Note that we keep DCCP netfilter modules as requested. [3]

promised the removal of the fs/autofs/Kconfig fragment for AUTOFS4_FS
within a couple of releases, but five years later this still has not
happened yet, and AUTOFS4_FS is still enabled in 63 defconfigs.
Get rid of it mechanically:
git grep -l CONFIG_AUTOFS4_FS -- '*defconfig' |
xargs sed -i 's/AUTOFS4_FS/AUTOFS_FS/'
Also just remove the AUTOFS4_FS config option stub. Anybody who hasn't

This driver got its last actual change in 2006 and is probably unused as
nowbody should use a cardbus to USB adapter any more.
If it were still used, the driver was in urgent need for maintainer
love. (Explicit kref handling, underdocumented locking, .remove() can
return errors ...)
Also the link in the (now removed) help text doesn't look actively
maintained. According to archive.org it forwarded to
http://www.copenhagen-hotel.net/ already back in 2018.
So don't waste more time on this driver and just delete it.

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
"Core:
- Introduce and use a single page frag cache for allocating small skb
heads, clawing back the 10-20% performance regression in UDP flood
test from previous fixes.
- Run packets which already went thru HW coalescing thru SW GRO. This
significantly improves TCP segment coalescing and simplifies
deployments as different workloads benefit from HW or SW GRO.
- Shrink the size of the base zero-copy send structure.
- Move TCP init under a new slow / sleepable version of DO_ONCE().
BPF:
- Add BPF-specific, any-context-safe memory allocator.
- Add helpers/kfuncs for PKCS#7 signature verification from BPF
programs.
- Define a new map type and related helpers for user space -> kernel
communication over a ring buffer (BPF_MAP_TYPE_USER_RINGBUF).
- Allow targeting BPF iterators to loop through resources of one
task/thread.
- Add ability to call selected destructive functions. Expose
crash_kexec() to allow BPF to trigger a kernel dump. Use
CAP_SYS_BOOT check on the loading process to judge permissions.
- Enable BPF to collect custom hierarchical cgroup stats efficiently
by integrating with the rstat framework.
- Support struct arguments for trampoline based programs. Only
structs with size <= 16B and x86 are supported.
- Invoke cgroup/connect{4,6} programs for unprivileged ICMP ping
sockets (instead of just TCP and UDP sockets).
- Add a helper for accessing CLOCK_TAI for time sensitive network
related programs.
- Support accessing network tunnel metadata's flags.
- Make TCP SYN ACK RTO tunable by BPF programs with TCP Fast Open.
- Add support for writing to Netfilter's nf_conn:mark.
Protocols:
- WiFi: more Extremely High Throughput (EHT) and Multi-Link Operation
(MLO) work (802.11be, WiFi 7).
- vsock: improve support for SO_RCVLOWAT.
- SMC: support SO_REUSEPORT.
- Netlink: define and document how to use netlink in a "modern" way.
Support reporting missing attributes via extended ACK.
- IPSec: support collect metadata mode for xfrm interfaces.
- TCPv6: send consistent autoflowlabel in SYN_RECV state and RST
packets.
- TCP: introduce optional per-netns connection hash table to allow
better isolation between namespaces (opt-in, at the cost of memory
and cache pressure).
- MPTCP: support TCP_FASTOPEN_CONNECT.
- Add NEXT-C-SID support in Segment Routing (SRv6) End behavior.
- Adjust IP_UNICAST_IF sockopt behavior for connected UDP sockets.
- Open vSwitch:
- Allow specifying ifindex of new interfaces.
- Allow conntrack and metering in non-initial user namespace.
- TLS: support the Korean ARIA-GCM crypto algorithm.
- Remove DECnet support.
Driver API:
- Allow selecting the conduit interface used by each port in DSA
switches, at runtime.
- Ethernet Power Sourcing Equipment and Power Device support.
- Add tc-taprio support for queueMaxSDU parameter, i.e. setting per
traffic class max frame size for time-based packet schedules.
- Support PHY rate matching - adapting between differing host-side
and link-side speeds.
- Introduce QUSGMII PHY mode and 1000BASE-KX interface mode.
- Validate OF (device tree) nodes for DSA shared ports; make
phylink-related properties mandatory on DSA and CPU ports.
Enforcing more uniformity should allow transitioning to phylink.
- Require that flash component name used during update matches one of
the components for which version is reported by info_get().
- Remove "weight" argument from driver-facing NAPI API as much as
possible. It's one of those magic knobs which seemed like a good
idea at the time but is too indirect to use in practice.
- Support offload of TLS connections with 256 bit keys.

DECnet is an obsolete network protocol that receives more attention
from kernel janitors than users. It belongs in computer protocol
history museum not in Linux kernel.
It has been "Orphaned" in kernel since 2010. The iproute2 support
for DECnet was dropped in 5.0 release. The documentation link on
Sourceforge says it is abandoned there as well.
Leave the UAPI alone to keep userspace programs compiling.
This means that there is still an empty neighbour table
for AF_DECNET.
The table of /proc/sys/net entries was updated to match
current directories and reformatted to be alphabetical.

Looks like almost all changes to this driver had been tree-wide
refactoring since git era begun. There is one commit from Al
15 years ago which could potentially be fixing a real bug.
The driver is using virt_to_bus() and is a real magnet for pointless
cleanups. It seems unlikely to have real users. Let's try to shed
this maintenance burden.

The driver for ATM Ambassador devices spews build warnings on
microblaze. The virt_to_bus() calls discard the volatile keyword.
The right thing to do would be to migrate this driver to a modern
DMA API but it seems unlikely anyone is actually using it.
There had been no fixes or functional changes here since
the git era begun.
In fact it sounds like the FW loading was broken from 2008
'til 2012 - see commit fcdc90b025 ("atm: forever loop loading
ambassador firmware").
Let's remove this driver, there isn't much changing in the APIs,
if users come forward we can apologize and revert.

The DLCI driver (dlci.c) implements the Frame Relay protocol. However,
we already have another newer and better implementation of Frame Relay
provided by the HDLC_FR driver (hdlc_fr.c).
The DLCI driver's implementation of Frame Relay is used by only one
hardware driver in the kernel - the SDLA driver (sdla.c).
The SDLA driver provides Frame Relay support for the Sangoma S50x devices.
However, the vendor provides their own driver (along with their own
multi-WAN-protocol implementations including Frame Relay), called WANPIPE.
I believe most users of the hardware would use the vendor-provided WANPIPE
driver instead.
(The WANPIPE driver was even once in the kernel, but was deleted in
commit 8db60bcf30 ("[WAN]: Remove broken and unmaintained Sangoma
drivers.") because the vendor no longer updated the in-kernel WANPIPE
driver.)

This driver transports LAPB (X.25 link layer) frames over TTY links.
I can safely say that this driver has no actual user because it was
not working at all until:
commit 8fdcabeac3 ("drivers/net/wan/x25_asy: Fix to make it work")
The code in its current state still has problems:
1.
The uses of "struct x25_asy" in x25_asy_unesc (when receiving) and in
x25_asy_write_wakeup (when sending) are not protected by locks against
x25_asy_change_mtu's changing of the transmitting/receiving buffers.
Also, all "netif_running" checks in this driver are not protected by
locks against the ndo_stop function.
2.
The driver stops all TTY read/write when the netif is down.
I think this is not right because this may cause the last outgoing frame
before the netif goes down to be incompletely transmitted, and the first
incoming frame after the netif goes up to be incompletely received.
And there may also be other problems.
I was planning to fix these problems but after recent discussions about
deleting other old networking code, I think we may just delete this
driver, too.

USB gadget patches from Felipe:
"usb: gadget: patches for v3.8
renesas_usbhs implements ->pullup() method, switches over
to devm_request_irq(), adds support for DMA Engine and
got a few miscelaneous cleanups.
The NCM gadget got an endianness fix and the Ethernet
gadget a frame size fix.
We're finally removing the g_file_storage gadget and
sticking to g_mass_storage and the new tcm_usb_gadget
gadgets since that was a huge duplicaton of effort anyway.
While removing g_file_storage, we also had to fix a bunch
of defconfigs which were still pointing to the old gadget.
There's a big series getting us closer to being able to
introduce our configfs interface. The series converts
functions into loadable modules which will, eventually,
be registered to the configfs interface.
Other than that there's the usual typo fixes and miscelaneous
cleanups all over the place."
The File-backed Storage Gadget (g_file_storage) is being removed, since
it has been replaced by Mass Storage Gadget (g_mass_storage). This commit
changes defconfigs point to the new gadget.

Convert the Alchemy platform to register the ohci-platform driver, now that
the ohci-platform driver properly handles the specific ohci-au1xxx resume
from suspend case.
This also greatly simplifies the power_{on,off} callbacks and make them
work on platform device id instead of checking the OHCI controller base
address like what was done in ohci-au1xxx.c.
Impacted defconfigs are also updated accordingly to select the OHCI platform
driver.
