The spec says to include it if the STA is "capable of operating
as STA 6G", which is a bit unclear because this is defined at a
STA level and not at the MLD level or so, but WFA requires this
to be included. Either way, the element is completely advisory
and intended mostly for debugging (and perhaps a bit steering),
so just include it in association request all the time if 6 GHz
is supported.
To determine what exactly to include, check all the channels
that aren't disabled. That way, it ends up being a lowest
common denominator, which is most useful for steering etc.

Pre-authentication frames (ETH_P_PREAUTH, 0x88C7) are sent before
the authentication handshake completes with the target AP, so no
encryption key exists for them yet. Unlike normal EAPOL frames
(ETH_P_8021X, 0x888E) which are registered as the control port
protocol, pre-auth frames are not recognized as control port frames,
causing the kernel to incorrectly assign the current AP's key and
attempt encryption, resulting in a WARN_ON in ieee80211_encrypt_tx_skb
when the cipher is not handled.
Fix this by setting IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_DONT_ENCRYPT for pre-auth
frames in ieee80211_tx_h_check_control_port_protocol(), so that
key selection skips them and they are sent unencrypted as intended.
Note that the only driver hitting this path is hwsim.

mac80211_hwsim saves the in-flight cfg80211 PMSR request and its wdev
in data->pmsr_request / data->pmsr_request_wdev when a measurement
starts, and clears them only when it reports completion.
mac80211_hwsim_abort_pmsr() never cleared that saved state. cfg80211
owns the request and frees it once the abort callback returns
(cfg80211_pmsr_process_abort() calls rdev_abort_pmsr() then
kfree(req)), so after an abort data->pmsr_request dangles. A later
hwsim PMSR report then dereferences the freed request in
hwsim_pmsr_report_nl() and completes it; a use-after-free.
Clear data->pmsr_request and data->pmsr_request_wdev once the abort
matches the active request. Move the wmediumd/virtio notification check
below the clear so the saved state is dropped even when no notification
is sent.

hwsim_pmsr_report_nl() looks up the radio by HWSIM_ATTR_ADDR_TRANSMITTER
and, when data->pmsr_request is set, parses the reported peer results,
hands them to cfg80211_pmsr_report(), then unconditionally clears
data->pmsr_request and calls cfg80211_pmsr_complete() to end the
measurement.
Unlike the sibling wmediumd data-path handlers
hwsim_tx_info_frame_received_nl() and hwsim_cloned_frame_received_nl(),
which check the sending socket's netgroup against data->netgroup and its
portid against data->wmediumd, this handler did not check the sender at
all, and its genl op carries no GENL_UNS_ADMIN_PERM flag. In non-virtio
(wmediumd) mode any process in the netns that can reach the hwsim
generic netlink family could therefore send a report. The transmitter
address is not secret, so such a process could inject spoofed ranging
results for another radio's in-flight request and, because the handler
always completes the measurement, terminate a ranging operation owned by
the real wmediumd session.
Reject reports whose sender does not match the registered wmediumd
instance, mirroring the sibling handlers: in non-virtio mode require
the sending socket's netgroup to equal data->netgroup and
info->snd_portid to equal data->wmediumd before touching the request
state.

mm81x is the first Wi-Fi HaLow driver to support the Morse Micro mm81x
chip family via USB and SDIO.
S1G support in the kernel is only new, and as a result this driver has
been scoped to be simple and only support station and AP interface.
The Wi-Fi specific features only cover the minimum required for basic
use such as powersave, aggregation, rate control and so on. The driver
will be extended into the future as S1G support for operations such as
ACS, channel switching and so on are added into the wireless stack.
The driver has been build tested on a long list of architectures and
compilers via Intels LKP.
The driver currently supports IEEE80211-2024 US channels only, with
AU 2020 also available. In order for this to be expanded additional
non-trivial kernel work is required which will begin once the
driver is upstream.
The driver has had many authors who are listed below in
alphabetical order:

mac80211_hwsim_stop() drops any frames left in data->pending. The loop
currently checks skb_queue_empty() and then dequeues separately.
That split is racy with TX status handling, which can remove a pending
frame under the queue lock. If the last entry is removed after the empty
check, skb_dequeue() returns NULL and the stop path passes that NULL skb
to ieee80211_free_txskb().
Use skb_dequeue() as the loop condition instead. The dequeue result is the
object that stop owns and frees, and a concurrent status completion that
empties the queue simply makes the loop terminate.

mac80211_hwsim_free() removes each radio from hwsim_radios before calling
mac80211_hwsim_del_radio(), but leaves the matching hwsim_radios_rht entry
in place until the whole table is destroyed.
Other radio removal paths remove both the list entry and data->rht while
holding hwsim_radio_lock, before dropping the lock and deleting the radio.
Do the same here so the all-radio cleanup path follows the same object
visibility ordering.
This helper is used while all radios are being torn down, either after
callback users have already been unregistered or while module init is
unwinding, so no hwsim_radios_generation update is needed.

Currently, when userspace requests station information with
link statistics using NL80211_CMD_GET_STATION with the
NL80211_ATTR_STA_DUMP_LINK_STATS flag, the kernel uses the .doit callback
(nl80211_get_station) which sends a single netlink message. For MLO
stations with multiple links, the link statistics can be large and may
exceed the maximum netlink message size, causing the operation to fail
with -EMSGSIZE.
The .dumpit callback (nl80211_dump_station) already supports
fragmentation across multiple netlink messages, making it suitable
for handling large link statistics. However, it currently iterates over
all stations on the interface, which is inefficient when userspace only
wants information about a specific station.
Add support for MAC address filtering in nl80211_dump_station to allow
userspace to request fragmented link statistics for a specific station.
When NL80211_ATTR_MAC is present in a dump request, cache the MAC address
in the dump context and use rdev_get_station() to retrieve information for
only that station, instead of iterating over all stations with
rdev_dump_station().
This allows userspace tools (like iw) to use NL80211_CMD_GET_STATION with
NLM_F_DUMP flag to retrieve complete link statistics for a specific
station across multiple netlink messages, avoiding the message size
limitation.

In MLO scenarios, stations may have multiple links, each with distinct
statistics. When userspace tools like iw or hostapd request station dumps,
attempting to pack all per-link stats into a single netlink message can
easily exceed the default 4KB buffer limit, especially when more than two
links are active. This results in -EMSGSIZE errors and incomplete data
delivery.
To address this, fragment per-link station statistics across multiple
netlink messages to ensure reliable delivery of complete MLO station
information. Extend the stateful context with a two-phase dump mechanism:
phase 0 (AGGREGATED) sends combined MLO-level statistics and phase 1
(PER_LINK) sends individual per-link statistics for each active link.
The dump loop is structured to produce exactly one netlink message per
iteration, with a common header (ifindex, wdev, mac, generation) built
once and phase-specific payload added via a switch statement. This keeps
header construction in one place and makes the EMSGSIZE bail-out uniform.
Add a new request flag attribute, NL80211_ATTR_STA_DUMP_LINK_STATS
(NLA_FLAG), for NL80211_CMD_GET_STATION dump. Userspace can set this
flag to request per-link station statistics for MLO stations.
Extract this flag during the first dump invocation by passing an attrbuf
to nl80211_prepare_wdev_dump(); use __free(kfree) to avoid scattered
manual kfree() calls. Cache the boolean in the dump context to avoid
repeated parsing on subsequent invocations.
Per-link messages carry a single NL80211_ATTR_MLO_LINKS nest with the
link ID, link-specific MAC, and per-link NL80211_ATTR_STA_INFO payload.
The link-specific validity (is_valid_ether_addr) and null pointer guard
are checked in nl80211_put_link_station_payload() before any message
construction begins.
Also fix all nla_nest_start_noflag() calls in nl80211_fill_link_station()
for nested attribute types (STA_INFO, BSS_PARAM, TID_STATS, per-tid) to
use nla_nest_start() so the NLA_F_NESTED flag is set correctly.
Propagate the actual return value from nl80211_put_sta_info_common() in
the AGGREGATED phase rather than returning skb->len. Returning skb->len
signals netlink to re-invoke the dump with the same sta_idx, causing an
infinite loop when the aggregated payload is too large to fit; returning
the real error code (-EMSGSIZE or otherwise) terminates the dump cleanly.
Backward compatibility is seamlessly preserved for non-MLO stations.

Currently, nl80211_dump_station() relies on the netlink callback's generic
args array (cb->args[2]) to track the station index during dumps. It also
processes the entire sinfo structure and transmits it to userspace
immediately in a single pass.
This approach creates a bottleneck for MLO. When an MLD station has
multiple active links, the aggregated station information, combined
with the individual per-link statistics, can easily exceed the
maximum netlink message size limits. The current monolithic dump
iteration cannot pause and resume mid-station to fragment these large
per-link statistics across multiple netlink messages.
Introduce a stateful context structure (struct nl80211_dump_station_ctx)
allocated during the dump to track the iteration state. Store the context
pointer directly at cb->args[2], following the same pattern as
nl80211_dump_wiphy which stores its state pointer at cb->args[0].
Move the station index (sta_idx) tracking and the sinfo payload into this
context. The per-station netlink message is built inline in the loop:
common header attributes are assembled directly, then
nl80211_put_sta_info_common() adds the STA_INFO payload.
Furthermore, move the NL80211_CMD_GET_STATION command definition from
genl_small_ops to genl_ops to natively support the .done callback.
Implement nl80211_dump_station_done() to ensure the newly allocated state
context and its deeply allocated sinfo payload are safely freed when the
dump concludes or is aborted prematurely by userspace.
Note that the previous dump path used nl80211_send_station(), which
included NL80211_ATTR_IE and NL80211_ATTR_RESP_IE. These attributes are
not carried forward in this implementation. As documented, association
response IEs (assoc_resp_ies) are only relevant at station creation time
(e.g. via cfg80211_new_sta()) to notify userspace about association
details, and are not expected to be part of get_station()/dump_station()
callbacks. Aligning with this expectation, these IEs are intentionally
omitted here.
This refactoring maintains the existing netlink batching performance while
laying the stateful foundation required for per-link statistics
fragmentation in subsequent patches.
At out_err_release, cfg80211_sinfo_release_content() frees any
dynamically allocated sub-fields inside ctx->sinfo (including per-link
pointers in sinfo.links[]). Without the subsequent memset, those
pointers remain non-NULL in the embedded sinfo. When the dump concludes
or is aborted, nl80211_dump_station_done() calls
cfg80211_sinfo_release_content() a second time on the same ctx->sinfo,
which would free the already-released link memory. The
memset(&ctx->sinfo, 0, sizeof(ctx->sinfo)) zeroes all pointers so the
second release call hits kfree(NULL), which is a harmless no-op.

Remove the link level statistics handling from
nl80211_send_station() and drop the unused link_stats parameter
from its signature and callers. The removed code iterated over
each MLO link and attempted to send link specific station data
through NL80211_ATTR_MLO_LINKS, but this logic was never used
because link_stats was always false.
This logic was introduced during early work on link level station
statistics with the intention of reporting information for each
link. Due to message size concerns when a station has multiple
links, the feature was disabled behind the link_stats flag and
remained unused.
The link level reporting block in nl80211_send_station() is dead
code and cannot support larger messages, so remove it. This
cleanup also prepares for proper link level statistics reporting
in nl80211_dump_station() in a later patch, where fragmentation
allows safe transmission of multi link data.
Also fix label indentation: the nla_put_failure label had an
erroneous leading space.

Currently, an AP may receive unprotected beacons from neighbouring
BSSes, which cfg80211_rx_unprot_mlme_mgmt() forwards to userspace via
NL80211_CMD_UNPROT_BEACON regardless of interface type.
While the kernel rate-limits these events to once per 10 seconds per
wdev, in multi-BSS scenarios each AP interface maintains its own
rate-limit state, increasing the number of reported events.
In AP mode, hostapd has no handler for NL80211_CMD_UNPROT_BEACON and
logs an unhandled event message for each occurrence, leading to excessive
log noise and making it harder to identify real issues.
Since an AP does not need to act on unprotected beacons from neighbouring
BSSes, skip reporting this event when operating in AP mode.

octeontx2-af: NPC parser and RSS improvements
This series extends the Marvell OcteonTX2 admin-function driver with two
improvements to the NPC (Network Parser CAM) block. The NPC parses packets
received by or transmitted from the NIX, and its matching CAM (MCAM)
selects which VFs, queues, or output ports handle each packet.
Patch 1 reserves a new range of PKINDs (46-53) to support configurable
L2 skip-size parsing. Packets arriving with variable length L2 headers
or a CPT (Cryptographic Accelerator Unit) pre-header can be steered
to one of four skip-size PKINDs so the NPC advances past the right number
of bytes before starting protocol classification. The mbox interface is
extended with a skip_size field so PF/VF drivers can program the desired
L2 offset at run time without rebuilding firmware.
Patch 2 adds a NIX_FLOW_KEY_TYPE_ROCEV2 flow-key type so the RSS engine
can distribute RoCEv2 traffic across receive queues using the destination
Queue Pair (QP) field. Without this, all RoCEv2 flows hash the same
way and land on a single queue.
Both changes target the admin-function driver to improve overall hardware
parsing infrastructure.

parsed. Reserve PKINDs 46-49 (NPC_RX_SKIP_SIZE_PKIND) for
configurable L2 skip-size use in the first pass, and PKINDs 50-53
(NPC_RX_CPT_SKIP_SIZE_PKIND) for the second pass where packets
carry a CPT (Cryptographic Accelerator Unit) header.
Add npc_set_skip_size_pkind() to program NPC_AF_PKINDX_ACTION0
for these reserved PKINDs with a user-supplied ptr_advance value
representing the L2 size to skip. For the corresponding CPT PKINDs
(pkind + 4), additionally configure the var_len_offset, var_len_mask,
var_len_shift, and var_len_right fields so the NPC can extract the
inner payload length from the CPT header.
Update rvu_npc_set_parse_mode() to accept a new skip_size argument
and dispatch to npc_set_skip_size_pkind() when the requested PKIND
falls in the newly reserved range. Extend the npc_set_pkind mbox
message struct with a skip_size field so PF/VF drivers can supply
this value at run time.
Advance NPC_UNRESERVED_PKIND_COUNT to NPC_RX_SKIP_SIZE_PKIND to
reflect the updated reservation boundary.

The mvneta driver uses the hardware Buffer Manager (BM) for RX buffer
allocation. During suspend, mvneta disables its clock, causing BM to
lose all buffer address state. On resume, mvneta_bm_port_init() re-
attaches the BM pool to the NIC, but BM hardware returns stale/garbage
buffer addresses. When NAPI poll processes these buffers, DMA cache
sync hits an invalid virtual address causing a kernel panic:
Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address b0000080
PC is at v7_dma_inv_range

Fix by adding suspend/resume callbacks to the BM driver:
- suspend: drain all buffers (with DMA unmapping), free the BPPE
regions, and reset pool state to FREE before stopping BM and gating
the clock.
- resume: enable the clock, reinitialize BM defaults, and restore pool
read/write pointers and size registers. Pool allocation and buffer
refill are handled by mvneta_resume() through the normal
mvneta_bm_port_init() path, which sees pools as FREE and performs
full initialization identical to probe.
Add a device_link (DL_FLAG_AUTOREMOVE_CONSUMER) in mvneta_probe to
guarantee BM resumes before mvneta and suspends after mvneta. If the
link cannot be created, fall back to SW buffer management to avoid a
potential crash on resume due to unordered PM transitions.

net: convert UDP getsockopt to sockopt_t
The leaf proto_ops getsockopt callbacks have been moving to the new
getsockopt_iter()/sockopt_t interface.
I was trying to get SMC into getsockop and retire .getsockopt, but,
I found the best approach is to keep converting other protocols.
This series starts the same conversion one layer down, at the struct proto
getsockopt path, beginning with UDP.
Example of the current code.
static int udp_getsockopt(struct sock *sk, int level, int optname,
char __user *optval, int __user *optlen)
{
if (level == SOL_UDP)
return udp_lib_getsockopt(sk, level, optname, optval, optlen);
return ip_getsockopt(sk, level, optname, optval, optlen);
}
We want udp_getsockopt to go to .getsockopt_iter, and there are two
approaches in this case:
1) Create a patchset that moves both of them to getsockopt_iter, which
is will be a huge change (ip_getsockopt() is used in many places)
2) Break this down, and transform from bottoms up. First
udp_lib_getsockopt() up to the point we can easily convert
others, such as ip_getsockopt().
I am taking the approach 2), so, the intermediate code will be something
like:
static int udp_getsockopt(struct sock *sk, int level, int optname,
char __user *optval, int __user *optlen)
{
sockopt_t opt;
int err;
if (level != SOL_UDP)
return ip_getsockopt(sk, level, optname, optval, optlen);
// Convert optlen/optval in sockopt // (first patch)
err = udp_lib_getsockopt(sk, level, optname, &opt);
}
The work is bottom-up and mergeable in small steps: a protocol's inner
getsockopt helper is switched to sockopt_t behind its existing thin
__user wrapper, one patch at a time.
Once every inner helper speaks sockopt_t, a later series flips the shared
struct proto.getsockopt and inet_connection_sock_af_ops.getsockopt signatures
and drops the transitional wrappers.

Exercise the raw getsockopt path now backed by sockopt_t. ICMP_FILTER
returns a fixed-size struct and, unlike the int/u64 options already
covered, clamps the length down to the user buffer on a short read
instead of failing, so check that semantic explicitly along with the
exact and oversized cases, the -EOPNOTSUPP path on a non-ICMP raw
socket, and an unknown optname.

Continue converting the proto-layer getsockopt callbacks to the sockopt_t
interface, switching do_raw_getsockopt() and its raw_geticmpfilter()
helper to take a sockopt_t.
The thin raw_getsockopt() wrapper keeps its __user signature for now: it
builds a user-backed sockopt_t with sockopt_init_user(), calls the helper,
and writes the returned length back to optlen. The helper uses
copy_to_iter() instead of copy_to_user(). No functional change.

Add a helper that initializes a user-backed sockopt_t from the (optval,
optlen) __user pair passed to a getsockopt() callback.
It is used by transitional __user getsockopt wrappers while the
proto-layer getsockopt callbacks are converted to take a sockopt_t, and
is removed once the conversion is complete.
The goal is to help to convert leafs. Example:
sock_common_getsockopt(... char __user *optval, int __user *optlen)
→ udp_getsockopt(sk, level, optname, optval__user, optlen__user)
→ udp_lib_getsockopt(sk, level, optname, &opt) /* needs a sockopt_t */

The device tree binding allows both "ports" and "ethernet-ports" as
the container node name. Try "ethernet-ports" when "ports" is absent
so that newer DTBs with the preferred name work.
This matches the handling already present in qca8k-8xxx.c

net: dsa: realtek: rtl8366rb: Use generic RTL83xx code
As a follow-up to Luiz's and Alvin's series improvining the
generic handling of the Realtek DSA switches, this small
series brings the RTL8366RB closer to the way things are done
in the RTL8365MB driver.
This patch series switches over to using the generic helpers
for:
- Bridge joining and leaving (isolation)
- STP handling
- Learning enable/disable
It would be appreciated if this doesn't lead to AI-automated
request to fix the entire universe (hi Sashiko, I'm looking
at you but I bet you will do you compulsive C3P0-style review
anyway) since I'm just moving code around so some helper
functions come before their new users. The code itself is
pretty straight-forward.

Instead of just writing the learning disablement register in setup
and a custom handling of BR_LEARNING, implement the generic RTL83xx
.port_set_learning() callback for setting learning on a port, and
call this in the per-port loop in .setup().
Instead of the custom rtl83366rb_port_bridge_flags() function for
setting learning mode on each port, use the RTL83xx generic
rtl83xx_port_bridge_flags() callback.

Instead of custom loops for intializing the ports (including the
CPU port) use the DSA helpers dsa_switch_for_each_port() and
dsa_switch_for_each_cpu_port() following the pattern in RTL8365MB by
accumulatong masks for the upstream and downstream ports.
This gives us similar enough code to the RTL8365MB that we
can start using more generic rtl83xx helpers.
