RFC 9131 changes default behaviour of handling RX of NA messages when the
corresponding entry is absent in the neighbour cache. The current
implementation is limited to accept just unsolicited NAs. However, the
RFC is more generic where it also accepts solicited NAs. Both types
should result in adding a STALE entry for this case.
Expand accept_untracked_na behaviour to also accept solicited NAs to
be compliant with the RFC and rename the sysctl knob to
accept_untracked_na.

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

Two issues were observed in the ReST doc added by commit c3a0addefb
("docs: ctucanfd: CTU CAN FD open-source IP core documentation.")
with Sphinx versions 2.4.4 and 4.5.0.
The plain "figure" directive broke "make pdfdocs" due to a missing
PDF figure. For conversion of SVG -> PDF to work, the "kernel-figure"
directive, which is an extension for kernel documentation, should
be used instead.
The directive of "code:: raw" causes a warning from both
"make htmldocs" and "make pdfdocs", which reads:
[...]/can/ctu/ctucanfd-driver.rst:75: WARNING: Pygments lexer name
'raw' is not known
A plain literal-block marker should suffice where no syntax
highlighting is intended.
Fix the issues by using suitable directive and marker.

Netfilter updates for net-next
This is v2 including deadlock fix in conntrack ecache rework
reported by Jakub Kicinski.
The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for net-next,
mostly updates to conntrack from Florian Westphal.
1) Add a dedicated list for conntrack event redelivery.
2) Include event redelivery list in conntrack dumps of dying type.
3) Remove per-cpu dying list for event redelivery, not used anymore.
4) Add netns .pre_exit to cttimeout to zap timeout objects before
synchronize_rcu() call.
5) Remove nf_ct_unconfirmed_destroy.
6) Add generation id for conntrack extensions for conntrack
timeout and helpers.
7) Detach timeout policy from conntrack on cttimeout module removal.
8) Remove __nf_ct_unconfirmed_destroy.
9) Remove unconfirmed list.
10) Remove unconditional local_bh_disable in init_conntrack().
11) Consolidate conntrack iterator nf_ct_iterate_cleanup().
12) Detect if ctnetlink listeners exist to short-circuit event
path early.
13) Un-inline nf_ct_ecache_ext_add().
14) Add nf_conntrack_events autodetect ctnetlink listener mode
and make it default.
15) Add nf_ct_ecache_exist() to check for event cache extension.
16) Extend flowtable reverse route lookup to include source, iif,
tos and mark, from Sven Auhagen.
17) Do not verify zero checksum UDP packets in nf_reject,
from Kevin Mitchell.

This adds the new nf_conntrack_events=2 mode and makes it the
default.
This leverages the earlier flag in struct net to allow to avoid
the event extension as long as no event listener is active in
the namespace.
This avoids, for most cases, allocation of ct->ext area.
A followup patch will take further advantage of this by avoiding
calls down into the event framework if the extension isn't present.

In order to be able to configure all needed stuff on a port/netdevice
of a line card without the line card being present, introduce line card
provisioning. Basically by setting a type, provisioning process will
start and driver is supposed to create a placeholder for instances
(ports/netdevices) for a line card type.
Allow the user to query the supported line card types over line card
get command. Then implement two netlink command SET to allow user to
set/unset the card type.
On the driver API side, add provision/unprovision ops and supported
types array to be advertised. Upon provision op call, the driver should
take care of creating the instances for the particular line card type.
Introduce provision_set/clear() functions to be called by the driver
once the provisioning/unprovisioning is done on its side. These helpers
are not to be called directly due to the async nature of provisioning.
Example:
$ devlink port # No ports are listed
$ devlink lc
pci/0000:01:00.0:
lc 1 state unprovisioned

Back when tcp_tso_autosize() and TCP pacing were introduced,
our focus was really to reduce burst sizes for long distance
flows.
The simple heuristic of using sk_pacing_rate/1024 has worked
well, but can lead to too small packets for hosts in the same
rack/cluster, when thousands of flows compete for the bottleneck.
Neal Cardwell had the idea of making the TSO burst size
a function of both sk_pacing_rate and tcp_min_rtt()
Indeed, for local flows, sending bigger bursts is better
to reduce cpu costs, as occasional losses can be repaired
quite fast.
This patch is based on Neal Cardwell implementation
done more than two years ago.
bbr is adjusting max_pacing_rate based on measured bandwidth,
while cubic would over estimate max_pacing_rate.
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_tso_rtt_log can be used to tune or disable
this new feature, in logarithmic steps.
Tested:
100Gbit NIC, two hosts in the same rack, 4K MTU.
600 flows rate-limited to 20000000 bytes per second.
Before patch: (TSO sizes would be limited to 20000000/1024/4096 -> 4 segments per TSO)
