Oleksij reported that:
The smsc95xx driver fails after one down/up cycle, like this:
$ nmcli device set enu1u1 managed no
$ p a a 10.10.10.1/24 dev enu1u1
$ ping -c 4 10.10.10.3
$ ip l s dev enu1u1 down
$ ip l s dev enu1u1 up
$ ping -c 4 10.10.10.3
The second ping does not reach the host. Networking also fails on other interfaces.
Enable the work by replacing the disable_work_sync() with cancel_work_sync().

If no PHY device is found (e.g., for LAN7801 in fixed-link mode),
lan78xx_phy_init() may proceed to dereference a NULL phydev pointer,
leading to a crash.
Update the logic to perform MAC configuration first, then check for the presence
of a PHY. For the fixed-link case, set up the fixed link and return early,
bypassing any code that assumes a valid phydev pointer.
It is safe to move lan78xx_mac_prepare_for_phy() earlier because this function
only uses information from dev->interface, which is configured by
lan78xx_get_phy() beforehand. The function does not access phydev or any data
set up by later steps.

Refactor Energy-Efficient Ethernet (EEE) support in the LAN78xx driver to
fully integrate with the phylink Low Power Idle (LPI) API. This includes:
- Replacing direct calls to `phy_ethtool_get_eee` and `phy_ethtool_set_eee`
with `phylink_ethtool_get_eee` and `phylink_ethtool_set_eee`.
- Implementing `.mac_enable_tx_lpi` and `.mac_disable_tx_lpi` to control
LPI transitions via phylink.
- Configuring `lpi_timer_default` to align with recommended values from
LAN7800 documentation.
- ensure EEE is disabled on controller reset

Refactor lan78xx_get_link_ksettings and lan78xx_set_link_ksettings to
use the phylink API (phylink_ethtool_ksettings_get and
phylink_ethtool_ksettings_set) instead of directly interfacing with the
PHY. This change simplifies the code and ensures better integration with
the phylink framework for link management.
Additionally, the explicit calls to usb_autopm_get_interface() and
usb_autopm_put_interface() have been removed. These were originally
needed to manage USB power management during register accesses. However,
lan78xx_mdiobus_read() and lan78xx_mdiobus_write() already handle USB
auto power management internally, ensuring that the interface remains
active when necessary. Since there are no other direct register accesses
in these functions that require explicit power management handling, the
extra calls have become redundant and are no longer needed.

The EVENT_LINK_RESET macro currently triggers deferred work after a PHY
interrupt. Prior to PHYLINK conversion, this work included reconfiguring
the MAC and PHY, effectively performing a 'link reset'.
However, after porting the driver to the PHYLINK framework, the logic
associated with this event now solely handles the acknowledgment of
the PHY interrupt. The MAC and PHY reconfiguration is now managed by
PHYLINK's dedicated callbacks.
To accurately reflect its current, narrowed functionality, rename
EVENT_LINK_RESET to EVENT_PHY_INT_ACK.

Convert the LAN78xx USB Ethernet driver to use the PHYLINK framework for
managing PHY and MAC interactions. This improves consistency with other
network drivers, simplifies pause frame handling, and enables cleaner
suspend/resume support.
Key changes:
- Replace all PHYLIB-based logic with PHYLINK equivalents:
- Replace phy_connect()/phy_disconnect() with phylink_connect_phy()
- Replace phy_start()/phy_stop() with phylink_start()/phylink_stop()
- Replace pauseparam handling with phylink_ethtool_get/set_pauseparam()
- Introduce lan78xx_phylink_setup() to configure PHYLINK
- Add phylink MAC operations:
- lan78xx_mac_config()
- lan78xx_mac_link_up()
- lan78xx_mac_link_down()
- Remove legacy link state handling:
- lan78xx_link_status_change()
- lan78xx_link_reset()
- Handle fixed-link fallback for LAN7801 using phylink_set_fixed_link()
- Replace deprecated flow control handling with phylink-managed logic
Power management:
- Switch suspend/resume paths to use phylink_suspend()/phylink_resume()
- Ensure proper use of rtnl_lock() where required
- Note: full runtime testing of power management is currently limited
due to hardware setup constraints
Note: Conversion of EEE (Energy Efficient Ethernet) handling to the
PHYLINK-managed API will be done in a follow-up patch. For now, the
legacy EEE enable logic is preserved in mac_link_up().

In mii_nway_restart() the code attempts to call
mii->mdio_read which is ch9200_mdio_read(). ch9200_mdio_read()
utilises a local buffer called "buff", which is initialised
with control_read(). However "buff" is conditionally
initialised inside control_read():
if (err == size) {
memcpy(data, buf, size);
}
If the condition of "err == size" is not met, then
"buff" remains uninitialised. Once this happens the
uninitialised "buff" is accessed and returned during
ch9200_mdio_read():
return (buff[0] | buff[1] << 8);
The problem stems from the fact that ch9200_mdio_read()
ignores the return value of control_read(), leading to
uinit-access of "buff".
To fix this we should check the return value of
control_read() and return early on error.

Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
"Core:
- Implement the Device Memory TCP transmit path, allowing zero-copy
data transmission on top of TCP from e.g. GPU memory to the wire.
- Move all the IPv6 routing tables management outside the RTNL scope,
under its own lock and RCU. The route control path is now 3x times
faster.
- Convert queue related netlink ops to instance lock, reducing again
the scope of the RTNL lock. This improves the control plane
scalability.
- Refactor the software crc32c implementation, removing unneeded
abstraction layers and improving significantly the related
micro-benchmarks.
- Optimize the GRO engine for UDP-tunneled traffic, for a 10%
performance improvement in related stream tests.
- Cover more per-CPU storage with local nested BH locking; this is a
prep work to remove the current per-CPU lock in local_bh_disable()
on PREMPT_RT.
- Introduce and use nlmsg_payload helper, combining buffer bounds
verification with accessing payload carried by netlink messages.
Netfilter:
- Rewrite the procfs conntrack table implementation, improving
considerably the dump performance. A lot of user-space tools still
use this interface.
- Implement support for wildcard netdevice in netdev basechain and
flowtables.
- Integrate conntrack information into nft trace infrastructure.
- Export set count and backend name to userspace, for better
introspection.
BPF:
- BPF qdisc support: BPF-qdisc can be implemented with BPF struct_ops
programs and can be controlled in similar way to traditional qdiscs
using the "tc qdisc" command.
- Refactor the UDP socket iterator, addressing long standing issues
WRT duplicate hits or missed sockets.
Protocols:
- Improve TCP receive buffer auto-tuning and increase the default
upper bound for the receive buffer; overall this improves the
single flow maximum thoughput on 200Gbs link by over 60%.
- Add AFS GSSAPI security class to AF_RXRPC; it provides transport
security for connections to the AFS fileserver and VL server.
- Improve TCP multipath routing, so that the sources address always
matches the nexthop device.
- Introduce SO_PASSRIGHTS for AF_UNIX, to allow disabling SCM_RIGHTS,
and thus preventing DoS caused by passing around problematic FDs.
- Retire DCCP socket. DCCP only receives updates for bugs, and major
distros disable it by default. Its removal allows for better
organisation of TCP fields to reduce the number of cache lines hit
in the fast path.
- Extend TCP drop-reason support to cover PAWS checks.
Driver API:
- Reorganize PTP ioctl flag support to require an explicit opt-in for
the drivers, avoiding the problem of drivers not rejecting new
unsupported flags.
- Converted several device drivers to timestamping APIs.
- Introduce per-PHY ethtool dump helpers, improving the support for
dump operations targeting PHYs.
Tests and tooling:
- Add support for classic netlink in user space C codegen, so that
ynl-c can now read, create and modify links, routes addresses and
qdisc layer configuration.
- Add ynl sub-types for binary attributes, allowing ynl-c to output
known struct instead of raw binary data, clarifying the classic
netlink output.
- Extend MPTCP selftests to improve the code-coverage.
- Add tests for XDP tail adjustment in AF_XDP.
New hardware / drivers:
- OpenVPN virtual driver: offload OpenVPN data channels processing to
the kernel-space, increasing the data transfer throughput WRT the
user-space implementation.
- Renesas glue driver for the gigabit ethernet RZ/V2H(P) SoC.

Syzkaller, courtesy of syzbot, identified an error (see report [1]) in
aqc111 driver, caused by incomplete sanitation of usb read calls'
results. This problem is quite similar to the one fixed in commit
920a9fa27e ("net: asix: add proper error handling of usb read errors").
For instance, usbnet_read_cmd() may read fewer than 'size' bytes,
even if the caller expected the full amount, and aqc111_read_cmd()
will not check its result properly. As [1] shows, this may lead
to MAC address in aqc111_bind() being only partly initialized,
triggering KMSAN warnings.
Fix the issue by verifying that the number of bytes read is
as expected and not less.

irq_domain_add_*() interfaces are going away as being obsolete now.
Switch to the preferred irq_domain_create_*() ones. Those differ in the
node parameter: They take more generic struct fwnode_handle instead of
struct device_node. Therefore, of_fwnode_handle() is added around the
original parameter.
Note some of the users can likely use dev->fwnode directly instead of
indirect of_fwnode_handle(dev->of_node). But dev->fwnode is not
guaranteed to be set for all, so this has to be investigated on case to
case basis (by people who can actually test with the HW).

Move flow control register configuration from
lan78xx_update_flowcontrol() into a new helper function
lan78xx_configure_flowcontrol(). This separates hardware-specific
programming from policy logic and simplifies the upcoming phylink
integration.
The values used in this initial version of
lan78xx_configure_flowcontrol() are taken over as-is from the original
implementation to avoid functional changes. While they may not be
optimal for all USB and link speed combinations, they are known to work

Move the USB link power configuration logic from lan78xx_link_reset()
to a new helper function lan78xx_configure_usb(). This simplifies the
main link reset path and isolates USB-specific logic.
The new function handles U1/U2 enablement based on Ethernet link speed,
but only for SuperSpeed-capable devices (LAN7800 and LAN7801). LAN7850,
a High-Speed-only device, is explicitly excluded. A warning is logged
if SuperSpeed is reported unexpectedly for LAN7850.
Add a forward declaration for lan78xx_configure_usb() as preparation for
the upcoming phylink conversion, where it will also be used from the
mac_link_up() callback.
Open questions remain:
- Why is the 1000 Mbps configuration split into two steps (U2 disable,
then U1 enable), unlike the single-step config used for 10/100 Mbps?
- U1/U2 behavior appears to depend on proper EEPROM configuration.
There are known devices in the field without EEPROM. Should the driver
enforce safe defaults in such cases?
Due to lack of USB subsystem expertise, no changes were made to this logic
beyond structural refactoring.

Split out PHY detection into lan78xx_get_phy() and MAC-side setup into
lan78xx_mac_prepare_for_phy(), making the main lan78xx_phy_init() cleaner
and easier to follow.
This improves separation of concerns and prepares the code for a future
transition to phylink. Fixed PHY registration and interface selection
are now handled in lan78xx_get_phy(), while MAC-side delay configuration
is done in lan78xx_mac_prepare_for_phy().
The fixed PHY fallback is preserved for setups like EVB-KSZ9897-1,
where LAN7801 connects directly to a KSZ switch without a standard PHY
or device tree support.

RGMII timing correctness relies on the PHY providing internal delays.
This is typically ensured via PHY driver, strap pins, or PCB layout.
Explicitly checking for a PHY driver here is unnecessary and non-standard.
This logic applies to all MACs, not just LAN78xx, and should be left to
phylib, phylink, or platform configuration.
Drop the check and rely on standard subsystem behavior.

ASIX AX88772B based USB 10/100 Ethernet adapter doesn't come
up ("carrier off"), despite the built-in 100BASE-FX PHY positive link
indication. The internal PHY is configured (using EEPROM) in fixed
100 Mbps full duplex mode.
The primary problem appears to be using carrier_netif_{on,off}() while,
at the same time, delegating carrier management to phylink. Use only the
latter and remove "manual control" in the asix driver.
I don't have any other AX88772 board here, but the problem doesn't seem
specific to a particular board or settings - it's probably
timing-dependent.
Remove unused asix_adjust_link() as well.

Missing usbnet_going_away Check in Critical Path.
The usb_submit_urb function lacks a usbnet_going_away
validation, whereas __usbnet_queue_skb includes this check.
This inconsistency creates a race condition where:
A URB request may succeed, but the corresponding SKB data
fails to be queued.
Subsequent processes:
(e.g., rx_complete → defer_bh → __skb_unlink(skb, list))
attempt to access skb->next, triggering a NULL pointer
dereference (Kernel Panic).

commit 8a7d12d674 ("net: usb: usbnet: fix name regression") assumed
that local addresses always came from the kernel, but some devices hand
out local mac addresses so we ended up with point-to-point devices with
a mac set by the driver, renaming to eth%d when they used to be named
usb%d.
Userspace should not rely on device name, but for the sake of stability
restore the local mac address check portion of the naming exception:
point to point devices which either have no mac set by the driver or
have a local mac handed out by the driver will keep the usb%d name.
(some USB LTE modems are known to hand out a stable mac from the locally
administered range; that mac appears to be random (different for
mulitple devices) and can be reset with device-specific commands, so
while such devices would benefit from getting a OUI reserved, we have
to deal with these and might as well preserve the existing behavior
to avoid breaking fragile openwrt configurations and such on upgrade.)

Set FLAG_WWAN instead of FLAG_ETHERNET for RNDIS interfaces on Mobile
Broadband Modems, as opposed to regular Ethernet adapters.
Otherwise NetworkManager gets confused, misjudges the device type,
and wouldn't know it should connect a modem to get the device to work.
What would be the result depends on ModemManager version -- older
ModemManager would end up disconnecting a device after an unsuccessful
probe attempt (if it connected without needing to unlock a SIM), while
a newer one might spawn a separate PPP connection over a tty interface
instead, resulting in a general confusion and no end of chaos.
The only way to get this work reliably is to fix the device type
and have good enough version ModemManager (or equivalent).

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
"Core & protocols:
- Continue Netlink conversions to per-namespace RTNL lock
(IPv4 routing, routing rules, routing next hops, ARP ioctls)
- Continue extending the use of netdev instance locks. As a driver
opt-in protect queue operations and (in due course) ethtool
operations with the instance lock and not RTNL lock.
- Support collecting TCP timestamps (data submitted, sent, acked) in
BPF, allowing for transparent (to the application) and lower
overhead tracking of TCP RPC performance.
- Tweak existing networking Rx zero-copy infra to support zero-copy
Rx via io_uring.
- Optimize MPTCP performance in single subflow mode by 29%.
- Enable GRO on packets which went thru XDP CPU redirect (were queued
for processing on a different CPU). Improving TCP stream
performance up to 2x.
- Improve performance of contended connect() by 200% by searching for
an available 4-tuple under RCU rather than a spin lock. Bring an
additional 229% improvement by tweaking hash distribution.
- Avoid unconditionally touching sk_tsflags on RX, improving
performance under UDP flood by as much as 10%.
- Avoid skb_clone() dance in ping_rcv() to improve performance under
ping flood.
- Avoid FIB lookup in netfilter if socket is available, 20% perf win.
- Rework network device creation (in-kernel) API to more clearly
identify network namespaces and their roles. There are up to 4
namespace roles but we used to have just 2 netns pointer arguments,
interpreted differently based on context.
- Use sysfs_break_active_protection() instead of trylock to avoid
deadlocks between unregistering objects and sysfs access.
- Add a new sysctl and sockopt for capping max retransmit timeout in
TCP.
- Support masking port and DSCP in routing rule matches.
- Support dumping IPv4 multicast addresses with RTM_GETMULTICAST.

GCC compiler (Debian 14.2.0-17) is not happy about printing
into a too short buffer (when build with `make W=1`):
drivers/net/usb/ax88172a.c:311:9: note: ‘snprintf’ output between 4 and 66 bytes into a destination of size 20
Indeed, the buffer size is chosen based on some assumptions,
while in general the assigned name might not fit. Increase
the buffer size to cover the minimum required one. With that,
change snprintf() to use sizeof() instead of the hard coded
value.
While at it, make sure that the PHY address is not bigger than
the allowed maximum.
