eth: fbnic: support RSS on IPv6 Flow Label
Support IPv6 Flow Label hashing. Use both inner and outer IPv6
header's Flow Label if both headers are detected. Flow Label
is unlike normal header fields, by enabling it user accepts
the unstable hash and possible reordering. Because of that
I think it's reasonable to hash over all Flow Labels we can
find, even tho we don't hash over all L3 addresses.

net: ethtool: support including Flow Label in the flow hash for RSS
Some modern NICs support including the IPv6 Flow Label in
the flow hash for RSS queue selection. This is outside
the old "Microsoft spec", but was included in the OCP NIC spec:
[ ] RSS include flow label in the hash (configurable)
RSS Flow Label hashing allows TCP Protective Load Balancing (PLB)
to recover from receiver congestion / overload.
Rx CPU/queue hotspots are relatively common for data ingest
workloads, and so far we had to try to detect the condition
at the RPC layer and reopen the connection. PLB lets us change
the Flow Label and therefore Rx CPU on RTO, with minimal packet
reordering. PLB reaction times are much faster, and can happen
at any point in the connection, not just at RPC boundaries.
Due to the nature of host processing (relatively long queues,
other kernel subsystems masking IRQs for 100s of msecs)
the risk of reordering within the host is higher than in
the network. But for applications which need it - it is far
preferable to potentially persistent overload of subset of
queues.
It is expected that the hash communicated to the host
may change if the Flow Label changes. This may be surprising
to some host software, but I don't expect the devices
can compute two Toeplitz hashes, one with the Flow Label
for queue selection and one without for the rx hash
communicated to the host. Besides, changing the hash
may potentially help to change the path thru host queues.
User can disable NETIF_F_RXHASH if they require a stable
flow hash.
The name RXH_IP6_FL was chosen based on what we call
Flow Label variables in IPv6 processing (fl). I prefer
fl_lbl but that appears to be an fbnic-only spelling.
We could spell out RXH_IP6_FLOW_LABEL but existing
RXH_ defines are a lot more terse.
Willem notes [1] that Flow Label is defined as identifying the flow
and therefore including both the flow label _and_ the L4 header
fields is not generally necessary. But it should not hurt so
it's not explicitly prevented if the driver supports hashing
on both at the same time.

netconsole: reuse netpoll_parse_ip_addr in configfs helpers
This patchset refactors the IP address parsing logic in the netconsole
driver to eliminate code duplication and improve maintainability. The
changes centralize IPv4 and IPv6 address parsing into a single function
(netpoll_parse_ip_addr). For that, it needs to teach
netpoll_parse_ip_addr() to handle strings with newlines, which is the
type of string coming from configfs.
Background
The netconsole driver currently has duplicate IP address parsing logic
in both local_ip_store() and remote_ip_store() functions. This
duplication increases the risk of inconsistencies and makes the code
harder to maintain.
Benefits
* Reduced code duplication: ~40 lines of duplicate parsing logic
eliminated
* Improved robustness: Centralized parsing reduces the chance
of inconsistencies
* Easier to maintain: Code follow more the netdev way

btrfs: fix log tree replay failure due to file with 0 links and extents
If we log a new inode (not persisted in a past transaction) that has 0
links and extents, then log another inode with an higher inode number, we
end up with failing to replay the log tree with -EINVAL. The steps for
this are:
1) create new file A
2) write some data to file A
3) open an fd on file A
4) unlink file A
5) fsync file A using the previously open fd
6) create file B (has higher inode number than file A)
7) fsync file B
8) power fail before current transaction commits
Now when attempting to mount the fs, the log replay will fail with
-ENOENT at replay_one_extent() when attempting to replay the first
extent of file A. The failure comes when trying to open the inode for
file A in the subvolume tree, since it doesn't exist.
Before commit 5f61b961599a ("btrfs: fix inode lookup error handling
during log replay"), the returned error was -EIO instead of -ENOENT,
since we converted any errors when attempting to read an inode during
log replay to -EIO.
The reason for this is that the log replay procedure fails to ignore
the current inode when we are at the stage LOG_WALK_REPLAY_ALL, our
current inode has 0 links and last inode we processed in the previous
stage has a non 0 link count. In other words, the issue is that at
replay_one_extent() we only update wc->ignore_cur_inode if the current
replay stage is LOG_WALK_REPLAY_INODES.
Fix this by updating wc->ignore_cur_inode whenever we find an inode item
regardless of the current replay stage. This is a simple solution and easy
to backport, but later we can do other alternatives like avoid logging
extents or inode items other than the inode item for inodes with a link
count of 0.
The problem with the wc->ignore_cur_inode logic has been around since
commit f2d72f42d5fa ("Btrfs: fix warning when replaying log after fsync
of a tmpfile") but it only became frequent to hit since the more recent
commit 5e85262e542d ("btrfs: fix fsync of files with no hard links not
persisting deletion"), because we stopped skipping inodes with a link
count of 0 when logging, while before the problem would only be triggered
if trying to replay a log tree created with an older kernel which has a
logged inode with 0 links.

kbuild: userprogs: use correct linker when mixing clang and GNU ld
The userprogs infrastructure does not expect clang being used with GNU ld
and in that case uses /usr/bin/ld for linking, not the configured $(LD).
This fallback is problematic as it will break when cross-compiling.
Mixing clang and GNU ld is used for example when building for SPARC64,
as ld.lld is not sufficient; see Documentation/kbuild/llvm.rst.
Relax the check around --ld-path so it gets used for all linkers.

kconfig: lxdialog: replace strcpy() with strncpy() in inputbox.c
strcpy() performs no bounds checking and can lead to buffer overflows if
the input string exceeds the destination buffer size. This patch replaces
it with strncpy(), and null terminates the input string.
kconfig: lxdialog: replace strcpy with snprintf in print_autowrap
strcpy() does not perform bounds checking and can lead to buffer overflows
if the source string exceeds the destination buffer size. In
print_autowrap(), replace strcpy() with snprintf() to safely copy the
prompt string into the fixed-size tempstr buffer.

net: ti: icssg-prueth: Fix skb handling for XDP_PASS
emac_rx_packet() is a common function for handling traffic
for both xdp and non-xdp use cases. Use common logic for
handling skb with or without xdp to prevent any incorrect
packet processing. This patch fixes ping working with
XDP_PASS for icssg driver.

net: Update threaded state in napi config in netif_set_threaded
Commit 2677010e7793 ("Add support to set NAPI threaded for individual
NAPI") added support to enable/disable threaded napi using netlink. This
also extended the napi config save/restore functionality to set the napi
threaded state. This breaks netdev reset for drivers that use napi
threaded at device level and also use napi config save/restore on
napi_disable/napi_enable. Basically on netdev with napi threaded enabled
at device level, a napi_enable call will get stuck trying to stop the
napi kthread. This is because the napi->config->threaded is set to
disabled when threaded is enabled at device level.
The issue can be reproduced on virtio-net device using qemu. To
reproduce the issue run following,
Update the threaded state in napi config in netif_set_threaded and add a
new test that verifies this scenario.
Tested on qemu with virtio-net:
