Since commit 1b255e1bea ("tools: ynl: add ipv4-or-v6 display hint"), we
can display either IPv4 or IPv6 addresses for a single field based on the
address family. However, most dual-stack fields still use the ipv4 display
hint. This update changes them to use the new ipv4-or-v6 display hint and
converts IPv4-only fields to use the u32 type.
Field changes:
- v4-or-v6
- IFA_ADDRESS, IFA_LOCAL
- IFLA_GRE_LOCAL, IFLA_GRE_REMOTE
- IFLA_VTI_LOCAL, IFLA_VTI_REMOTE
- IFLA_IPTUN_LOCAL, IFLA_IPTUN_REMOTE
- NDA_DST
- RTA_DST, RTA_SRC, RTA_GATEWAY, RTA_PREFSRC
- FRA_SRC, FRA_DST
- ipv4
- IFA_BROADCAST
- IFLA_GENEVE_REMOTE
- IFLA_IPTUN_6RD_RELAY_PREFIX

net.ipv4.tcp_comp_sack_slack_ns current default value is too high.
When a flow has many drops (1 % or more), and small RTT, adding 100 usec
before sending SACK stalls the sender relying on getting SACK
fast enough to keep the pipe busy.
Decrease the default to 10 usec.
This is orthogonal to Congestion Control heuristics to determine
if drops are caused by congestion or not.

Adds DEVLINK_ESWITCH_MODE_SWITCHDEV_INACTIVE attribute to UAPI and
documentation.
Before having traffic flow through an eswitch, a user may want to have the
ability to block traffic towards the FDB until FDB is fully programmed and
the user is ready to send traffic to it. For example: when two eswitches
are present for vports in a multi-PF setup, one eswitch may take over the
traffic from the other when the user chooses.
Before this take over, a user may want to first program the inactive
eswitch and then once ready redirect traffic to this new eswitch.
switchdev modes transition semantics:
legacy->switchdev_inactive: Create switchdev mode normally, traffic not
allowed to flow yet.
switchdev_inactive->switchdev: Enable traffic to flow.
switchdev->switchdev_inactive: Block traffic on the FDB, FDB and
representros state and content is preserved.
When eswitch is configured to this mode, traffic is ignored/dropped on
this eswitch FDB, while current configuration is kept, e.g FDB rules and
netdev representros are kept available, FDB programming is allowed.
Example:
# start inactive switchdev
devlink dev eswitch set pci/0000:08:00.1 mode switchdev_inactive
# setup TC rules, representors etc ..
# activate
devlink dev eswitch set pci/0000:08:00.1 mode switchdev

TCP SACK compression has been added in 2018 in commit
5d9f4262b7 ("tcp: add SACK compression").
It is working great for WAN flows (with large RTT).
Wifi in particular gets a significant boost _when_ ACK are suppressed.
Add a new sysctl so that we can tune the very conservative 5 % value
that has been used so far in this formula, so that small RTT flows
can benefit from this feature.
delay = min ( 5 % of RTT, 1 ms)
This patch adds new tcp_comp_sack_rtt_percent sysctl
to ease experiments and tuning.
Given that we cap the delay to 1ms (tcp_comp_sack_delay_ns sysctl),
set the default value to 33 %.
Quoting Neal Cardwell ( https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/CADVnQymZ1tFnEA1Q=vtECs0=Db7zHQ8=+WCQtnhHFVbEOzjVnQ@mail.gmail.com/ )
The rationale for 33% is basically to try to facilitate pipelining,
where there are always at least 3 ACKs and 3 GSO/TSO skbs per SRTT, so
that the path can maintain a budget for 3 full-sized GSO/TSO skbs "in
flight" at all times:
+ 1 skb in the qdisc waiting to be sent by the NIC next
+ 1 skb being sent by the NIC (being serialized by the NIC out onto the wire)
+ 1 skb being received and aggregated by the receiver machine's
aggregation mechanism (some combination of LRO, GRO, and sack
compression)
Note that this is basically the same magic number (3) and the same
rationales as:
(a) tcp_tso_should_defer() ensuring that we defer sending data for no
longer than cwnd/tcp_tso_win_divisor (where tcp_tso_win_divisor = 3),
and
(b) bbr_quantization_budget() ensuring that cwnd is at least 3 GSO/TSO
skbs to maintain pipelining and full throughput at low RTTs

Add support for standard tx-internal-delay-ps and rx-internal-delay-ps
properties on port nodes to allow fine-tuning of RGMII clock delays.
The GSWIP switch hardware supports delay values in 500 picosecond
increments from 0 to 3500 picoseconds, with a post-reset default of 2000
picoseconds for both TX and RX delays. The driver currently sets the
delay to 0 in case the PHY is setup to carry out the delay by the
corresponding interface modes ("rgmii-id", "rgmii-rxid", "rgmii-txid").
This corresponds to the driver changes that allow adjusting MII delays
using Device Tree properties instead of relying solely on the PHY
interface mode.

Currently the i40e driver enforces its own internally calculated per-VF MAC
filter limit, derived from the number of allocated VFs and available
hardware resources. This limit is not configurable by the administrator,
which makes it difficult to control how many MAC addresses each VF may
use.
This patch adds support for the new generic devlink runtime parameter
"max_mac_per_vf" which provides administrators with a way to cap the
number of MAC addresses a VF can use:
- When the parameter is set to 0 (default), the driver continues to use
its internally calculated limit.
- When set to a non-zero value, the driver applies this value as a strict
cap for VFs, overriding the internal calculation.
Important notes:
- The configured value is a theoretical maximum. Hardware limits may
still prevent additional MAC addresses from being added, even if the
parameter allows it.
- Since MAC filters are a shared hardware resource across all VFs,
setting a high value may cause resource contention and starve other
VFs.
- This change gives administrators predictable and flexible control over
VF resource allocation, while still respecting hardware limitations.
- Previous discussion about this change:

Currently if a -ENOMEM from smc_wr_alloc_link_mem() is handled by
giving up and going the way of a TCP fallback. This was reasonable
before the sizes of the allocations there were compile time constants
and reasonably small. But now those are actually configurable.
So instead of giving up, keep retrying with half of the requested size
unless we dip below the old static sizes -- then give up! In terms of
numbers that means we give up when it is certain that we at best would
end up allocating less than 16 send WR buffers or less than 48 recv WR
buffers. This is to avoid regressions due to having fewer buffers
compared the static values of the past.
Please note that SMC-R is supposed to be an optimisation over TCP, and
falling back to TCP is superior to establishing an SMC connection that
is going to perform worse. If the memory allocation fails (and we
propagate -ENOMEM), we fall back to TCP.
Preserve (modulo truncation) the ratio of send/recv WR buffer counts.
