When wlan interface is up, and 11d scan is sent to the firmware, then
firmware needs to spend couple of seconds to complete the 11d scan. If
normal scan from user space arrives to ath12k at this moment, then the
normal scan request is also sent to the firmware, but the scan started
event will be reported to ath12k until the 11d scan complete. When timed
out for the scan started in ath12k, ath12k stops the normal scan and the
firmware reports WMI_SCAN_EVENT_DEQUEUED to ath12k for the normal scan.
ath12k has no handler for the event and then timed out for the scan
completed in ath12k_scan_stop(), and ath12k prints the following error
message.
[ 1491.604750] ath12k_pci 0000:02:00.0: failed to receive scan abort comple: timed out
[ 1491.604756] ath12k_pci 0000:02:00.0: failed to stop scan: -110
[ 1491.604758] ath12k_pci 0000:02:00.0: failed to start hw scan: -110
Add a handler for WMI_SCAN_EVENT_DEQUEUED and then complete the scan to
get rid of the above error message.

Add WMI support to process the EHT capabilities passed by
the firmware. Add required EHT specific definitions in
structures ath12k_band_cap and ath12k_wmi_svc_rdy_ext_parse.
For single_pdev chip such as WCN7850, only one pdev is created
and only one hardware is registered to mac80211. This one pdev
manages both 2.4 GHz radio and 5 GHz/6 GHz radio.

Currently after the hardware restart triggered from the driver, the
station interface connection remains intact, since a disconnect
trigger is not sent to userspace. This can lead to a problem in
targets where the wifi mac sequence is added by the firmware.
After the target restart, its wifi mac sequence number gets reset to
zero. Hence AP to which our device is connected will receive frames
with a wifi mac sequence number jump to the past, thereby resulting
in the AP dropping all these frames, until the frame arrives with a
wifi mac sequence number which AP was expecting.
To avoid such frame drops, its better to trigger a station disconnect
upon target hardware restart which can be done with API
ieee80211_reconfig_disconnect exposed to mac80211.

Currently ath12k define WMI_HOST_HW_MODE_DBS_OR_SBS=5 as max hw mode
for enum wmi_host_hw_mode_config_type, it is also same for the array
ath12k_hw_mode_pri_map.
When tested with new version firmware/board data which support new
hw mode eMLSR mode with hw mode value 8, it leads overflow usage for
array ath12k_hw_mode_pri_map in function ath12k_wmi_hw_mode_caps(),
and then lead preferred_hw_mode changed to 8, and finally function
ath12k_pull_mac_phy_cap_svc_ready_ext() select the capability of hw
mode 8, but the capability of eMLSR mode report from firmware does
not support 2.4 GHz band for WCN7850, so finally 2.4 GHz band is
disabled.
Skip the hw mode which exceeds WMI_HOST_HW_MODE_MAX in function
ath12k_wmi_hw_mode_caps() helps to avoid array overflow, then the 2.4
GHz band will not be disabled.
This is to keep compatibility with newer version firmware/board data
files, this change is still needed after ath12k add eMLSR hw mode 8 in
array ath12k_hw_mode_pri_map and enum wmi_host_hw_mode_config_type,
because more hw mode maybe added in next firmware/board data version
e.g hw mode 9, then it will also lead new array overflow without this
change.

qmi_wlanfw_host_cap_req_msg_v01 defined in array
qmi_wlanfw_host_cap_req_msg_v01_ei uses type QMI_OPT_FLAG.
Unfortunately, all ath12k firmware actually expects this field to be of

And as a result, firmware is unable to correctly decode the mlo_capable

for the received ppdu in ath11k_dp_rx_h_ppdu(), channel number is checked only

Fix it by modifying %lx to %p in the printk format string.
Note that with this change, the pointer address will be printed as a

As the debugfs API returns an error pointer,
the returned value can never be NULL.
Therefore, as the documentation suggests that the check is unnecessary

it is advisable to completely eliminate the check.

IPv6 inet sockets are supposed to have a "struct ipv6_pinfo"
field at the end of their definition, so that inet6_sk_generic()
can derive from socket size the offset of the "struct ipv6_pinfo".
This is very fragile, and prevents adding bigger alignment
in sockets, because inet6_sk_generic() does not work
if the compiler adds padding after the ipv6_pinfo component.
We are currently working on a patch series to reorganize
TCP structures for better data locality and found issues
similar to the one fixed in commit f5d547676c
("tcp: fix tcp_inet6_sk() for 32bit kernels")
Alternative would be to force an alignment on "struct ipv6_pinfo",
greater or equal to __alignof__(any ipv6 sock) to ensure there is
no padding. This does not look great.

`strncpy` is deprecated for use on NUL-terminated destination strings [1].
Even call sites utilizing length-bounded destination buffers should
switch over to using `strtomem` or `strtomem_pad`. In this case,
however, the compiler is unable to determine the size of the `data`
buffer which renders `strtomem` unusable. Due to this, `strscpy`
should be used.
It should be noted that most call sites already zero-initialize the
destination buffer. However, I've opted to use `strscpy_pad` to maintain
the same exact behavior that `strncpy` produced (zero-padded tail up to
`len`).
Also see [3].

====================
Process connector bug fixes & enhancements
Oracle DB is trying to solve a performance overhead problem it has been
facing for the past 10 years and using this patch series, we can fix this
issue.
Oracle DB runs on a large scale with 100000s of short lived processes,
starting up and exiting quickly. A process monitoring DB daemon which
tracks and cleans up after processes that have died without a proper exit
needs notifications only when a process died with a non-zero exit code
(which should be rare).
Due to the pmon architecture, which is distributed, each process is
independent and has minimal interaction with pmon. Hence fd based
solutions to track a process's spawning and exit cannot be used. Pmon
needs to detect the abnormal death of a process so it can cleanup after.
Currently it resorts to checking /proc every few seconds. Other methods
we tried like using system call to reduce the above overhead were not
accepted upstream.
With this change, we add event based filtering to proc connector module
so that DB can only listen to the events it is interested in. A new
event type PROC_EVENT_NONZERO_EXIT is added, which is only sent by kernel
to a listening application when any process exiting has a non-zero exit
status.
This change will give Oracle DB substantial performance savings - it takes
50ms to scan about 8K PIDs in /proc, about 500ms for 100K PIDs. DB does
this check every 3 secs, so over an hour we save 10secs for 100K PIDs.
With this, a client can register to listen for only exit or fork or a mix or
all of the events. This greatly enhances performance - currently, we
need to listen to all events, and there are 9 different types of events.
For eg. handling 3 types of events - 8K-forks + 8K-exits + 8K-execs takes
200ms, whereas handling 2 types - 8K-forks + 8K-exits takes about 150ms,
and handling just one type - 8K exits takes about 70ms.
Measuring the time using pidfds for monitoring 8K process exits took 4
times longer - 200ms, as compared to 70ms using only exit notifications
of proc connector. Hence, we cannot use pidfd for our use case.
This kind of a new event could also be useful to other applications like
Google's lmkd daemon, which needs a killed process's exit notification.
This patch series is organized as follows -
Patch 1 : Needed for patch 3 to work.
Patch 2 : Needed for patch 3 to work.
Patch 3 : Fixes some bugs in proc connector, details in the patch.
Patch 4 : Adds event based filtering for performance enhancements.
Patch 5 : Allow non-root users access to proc connector events.

Run as ./proc_filter -f to run new filter code. Run without "-f" to run
usual proc connector code without the new filtering code.

There were a couple of reasons for not allowing non-root users access
initially - one is there was some point no proper receive buffer
management in place for netlink multicast. But that should be long
fixed. See link below for more context.
Second is that some of the messages may contain data that is root only. But
this should be handled with a finer granularity, which is being done at the
protocol layer. The only problematic protocols are nf_queue and the
firewall netlink. Hence, this restriction for non-root access was relaxed
for NETLINK_ROUTE initially:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20020612013101.A22399@wotan.suse.de/
This restriction has also been removed for following protocols:
NETLINK_KOBJECT_UEVENT, NETLINK_AUDIT, NETLINK_SOCK_DIAG,
NETLINK_GENERIC, NETLINK_SELINUX.
Since process connector messages are not sensitive (process fork, exit
notifications etc.), and anyone can read /proc data, we can allow non-root
access here. However, since process event notification is not the only
consumer of NETLINK_CONNECTOR, we can make this change even more
fine grained than the protocol level, by checking for multicast group
within the protocol.
Allow non-root access for NETLINK_CONNECTOR via NL_CFG_F_NONROOT_RECV
but add new bind function cn_bind(), which allows non-root access only
for CN_IDX_PROC multicast group.

This patch adds the capability to filter messages sent by the proc
connector on the event type supplied in the message from the client
to the connector. The client can register to listen for an event type
given in struct proc_input.
This event based filteting will greatly enhance performance - handling
8K exits takes about 70ms, whereas 8K-forks + 8K-exits takes about 150ms
& handling 8K-forks + 8K-exits + 8K-execs takes 200ms. There are currently
9 different types of events, and we need to listen to all of them. Also,
measuring the time using pidfds for monitoring 8K process exits took
much longer - 200ms, as compared to 70ms using only exit notifications of
proc connector.
We also add a new event type - PROC_EVENT_NONZERO_EXIT, which is
only sent by kernel to a listening application when any process exiting,
has a non-zero exit status. This will help the clients like Oracle DB,
where a monitoring process wants notfications for non-zero process exits
so it can cleanup after them.
This kind of a new event could also be useful to other applications like
Google's lmkd daemon, which needs a killed process's exit notification.
The patch takes care that existing clients using old mechanism of not
sending the event type work without any changes.
cn_filter function checks to see if the event type being notified via
proc connector matches the event type requested by client, before
sending(matches) or dropping(does not match) a packet.

The current proc connector code has the foll. bugs - if there are more
than one listeners for the proc connector messages, and one of them
deregisters for listening using PROC_CN_MCAST_IGNORE, they will still get
all proc connector messages, as long as there is another listener.
Another issue is if one client calls PROC_CN_MCAST_LISTEN, and another one
calls PROC_CN_MCAST_IGNORE, then both will end up not getting any messages.
This patch adds filtering and drops packet if client has sent
PROC_CN_MCAST_IGNORE. This data is stored in the client socket's
sk_user_data. In addition, we only increment or decrement
proc_event_num_listeners once per client. This fixes the above issues.
cn_release is the release function added for NETLINK_CONNECTOR. It uses
the newly added netlink_release function added to netlink_sock. It will
free sk_user_data.

A new function netlink_release is added in netlink_sock to store the
protocol's release function. This is called when the socket is deleted.
This can be supplied by the protocol via the release function in
netlink_kernel_cfg. This is being added for the NETLINK_CONNECTOR
protocol, so it can free it's data when socket is deleted.

To use filtering at the connector & cn_proc layers, we need to enable
filtering in the netlink layer. This reverses the patch which removed
netlink filtering - commit ID for that patch:

net: page_pool: remove page_pool_release_page()
page_pool_return_page() is a historic artefact from before
recycling of pages attached to skbs was supported. Theoretical
uses for it may be thought up but in practice all existing
users can be converted to use skb_mark_for_recycle() instead.
This code was previously posted as part of the memory provider RFC.

Currently, if cmd in the split ops array is of lower value than the
previous one, genl_validate_ops() continues to do the checks as if
the values are equal. This may result in non-obvious WARN_ON() hit in
these check.
Instead, check the incorrect ordering explicitly and put a WARN_ON()
in case it is broken.

octeontx2-pf: support Round Robin scheduling
octeontx2 and CN10K silicons support Round Robin scheduling. When multiple
traffic flows reach transmit level with the same priority, with Round Robin
scheduling traffic flow with the highest quantum value is picked. With this
support, the user can add multiple classes with the same priority and
different quantum in htb offload.
This series of patches adds support for the same.
Patch1: implement transmit schedular allocation algorithm as preparation
for support round robin scheduling.
Patch2: Allow quantum parameter in HTB offload mode.
Patch3: extends octeontx2 htb offload support for Round Robin scheduling
