2026-05-05wifi: mac80211: move frame RX handling to type filesJohannes Berg
The interface frame queue processing code currently differentiates many frame types and below those the interface types, but then falls through to per-type processing. Move this code to the per-type functions, creating a new ap.c file that gets relevant code, and this way reduce the number of non-static symbols. This also helps with adding more cases for UHR later.

2026-05-05wifi: cfg80211: add LTF keyseed support for secure rangingPeddolla Harshavardhan Reddy
Currently there is no way to install an LTF key seed that can be used in non-trigger-based (NTB) and trigger-based (TB) FTM ranging to protect NDP frames. Without this, drivers cannot enable PHY-layer security for peer measurement sessions, leaving ranging measurements vulnerable to eavesdropping and manipulation. Introduce NL80211_KEY_LTF_SEED attribute and the dedicated extended feature flag NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_SET_KEY_LTF_SEED to allow drivers to advertise and install LTF key seeds via nl80211. The key seed must be configured beforehand to ensure the peer measurement session is secure. The driver must advertise both NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_SECURE_LTF and NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_SET_KEY_LTF_SEED for the key seed installation to be permitted. The LTF key seed is pairwise key material and must only be used with pairwise key type. Reject attempts to use it with other key types.

2026-05-05wifi: cfg80211: allow suppressing FTM result reporting for PD requestsPeddolla Harshavardhan Reddy
Proximity detection often does not require detailed ranging measurements, yet userspace currently receives full FTM results for every request, causing unnecessary data transfer, host wakeups, and processing overhead. Add an optional control to suppress ranging result reporting for peer-to-peer PD requests. Introduce the NL80211_PMSR_FTM_REQ_ATTR_PD_SUPPRESS_RESULTS flag; when set with a PD request, the device may perform the measurements (e.g. when acting as RSTA) but must not report the measurement results to userspace. Validate that the flag is only accepted when request_type is set to NL80211_PMSR_FTM_REQ_TYPE_PD, reject otherwise.

2026-05-05wifi: cfg80211: add role-based peer limits to FTM capabilitiesPeddolla Harshavardhan Reddy
Peer measurement capabilities currently advertise a single maximum peer count regardless of device role. Some devices support different peer limits when operating as initiator versus responder. Add max_peers fields inside the ftm.ista and ftm.rsta sub-structs of cfg80211_pmsr_capabilities to allow drivers to advertise per-role peer limits. These limits are generic and not restricted to any specific ranging type. Expose these over nl80211 using new NL80211_PMSR_ATTR_MAX_PEER_ISTA_ROLE and NL80211_PMSR_ATTR_MAX_PEER_RSTA_ROLE attributes inside the ISTA_CAPS and RSTA_CAPS nested attributes respectively. When a role limit is advertised, validate the number of peers in the request separately for each role using the existing rsta flag in the FTM request, and reject the request if the limit is exceeded.

2026-05-05wifi: cfg80211: add proximity detection capabilities to PMSRPeddolla Harshavardhan Reddy
Introduce Proximity Detection (PD) capabilities in Peer Measurement Service (PMSR) as defined in the Wi-Fi Alliance specification "Proximity Ranging (PR) Implementation Consideration Draft 1.9 Rev 1 section 3.3". This enables devices to advertise peer to peer ranging support. Restructure FTM capabilities in cfg80211_pmsr_capabilities to replace the single support_rsta flag with nested ista and rsta sub-structs, each carrying per-mode flags for Non-Trigger Based (NTB), Trigger Based (TB), and EDCA based ranging. This allows drivers to advertise detailed role and protocol support for both initiator and responder roles. Add support to pass additional ISTA and RSTA role capabilities to userspace using new nested ISTA_CAPS and RSTA_CAPS attributes. The legacy RSTA_SUPPORT flag is retained for backward compatibility. Add NL80211_PMSR_FTM_CAPA_ATTR_TYPE_CAPS nested attribute using the nl80211_peer_measurement_ftm_type_capa enum with two sub-flags: NL80211_PMSR_FTM_TYPE_CAPA_ATTR_INFRA_SUPPORT for STA-to-AP or AP-to-STA ranging, and NL80211_PMSR_FTM_TYPE_CAPA_ATTR_PD_SUPPORT for peer-to-peer ranging. Add CONCURRENT_ISTA_RSTA_SUPPORT as a FTM capability flag indicating the device can simultaneously act as initiator and responder in a multi-peer measurement request. Extend FTM capabilities with antenna configuration fields (max_no_of_tx_antennas, max_no_of_rx_antennas) for the PR Element during PASN negotiation, and ranging interval limits (min_allowed_ranging_interval_edca, min_allowed_ranging_interval_ntb) to advertise device timing constraints for EDCA and NTB-based ranging. Update the FTM request validation path in pmsr.c to check RSTA requests against the per-mode rsta capabilities (NTB, TB, EDCA), rejecting requests for modes the device does not support.

Add a new wdev-only interface type NL80211_IFTYPE_PD to support Proximity Detection (PD) operations such as PASN and peer measurement operations. This interface type operates without a netdev, similar to P2P_DEVICE and NAN interfaces. Implement support across cfg80211 and mac80211 layers with PD-specific checks gated by the NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_SECURE_RTT feature flag, management frame registration and transmission capabilities, and proper channel context handling where PD interfaces are excluded from bandwidth calculations. Update mac80211 to recognize the new interface type in the relevant paths for this management-only interface. PD discovery can be performed on any available interface, such as NL80211_IFTYPE_STATION. If PD/PMSR uses the MAC address of an existing interface type, such as NL80211_IFTYPE_STATION, then pairing and measurement shall use that same interface. If PD/PMSR uses a different MAC address, such as a random MAC address, then pairing and measurement can be performed on a new NL80211_IFTYPE_PD interface created with that random MAC address.

2026-05-05wifi: cfg80211: Add MAC address filter to remain_on_channelPeddolla Harshavardhan Reddy
Currently the remain_on_channel operation does not support filtering incoming frames by destination MAC address. This prevents use cases such as PASN authentication in the responder side that need to receive frames addressed to a specific MAC during the off-channel period. Add an rx_addr parameter to the remain_on_channel operation callback and propagate it through the call chain from nl80211 to driver implementations. Introduce the extended feature NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_ROC_ADDR_FILTER as a capability gate so that cfg80211 rejects the request if the driver does not advertise support for address filtering. Extract the address from the NL80211_ATTR_MAC attribute when provided in the netlink message and update the tracing infrastructure to include the address in remain_on_channel trace events. The rx_addr parameter is optional and can be NULL, maintaining backward compatibility with existing drivers.

2026-05-05wifi: mac80211: add NAN channel evacuation supportMiri Korenblit
A NAN channel can be evacuated, i.e. detached from its chanctx, if all chanctxs are used by NAN and a chanctx is needed for something else. For example if the STA interface needs to perform a channel switch. Implement the evacuation: detach the NAN channel from its chanctx, remove all the peer NAN channels that were using this chanctx, and update the driver. Internally, the NAN channel evacuation will be triggered in the scenario described above, and API is provided for the driver to also trigger it. The driver/device is assumed to publish a ULW to notify the peers about the fact that we won't be present on this NAN channel anymore. Also export this as an API for the drivers: if a driver has other resources per channel, it might want to trigger channel evacuation in order to free up such internal resources for other usages.

2026-05-05wifi: cfg80211: indicate (Re)Association frame encryption to userspaceKavita Kavita
In SME-in-driver mode, the driver handles the entire (re)association exchange. Userspace (e.g., wpa_supplicant) currently has no explicit indication of whether the (re)association exchange was encrypted, making it difficult to distinguish EPP (Enhanced Privacy Protection, IEEE 802.11bi) associations from non-EPP associations. When (Re)Association frame encryption is used, the (Re)Association Response frame must contain a Key Delivery element as specified in IEEE P802.11bi/D4.0, Table 9-65. Userspace must process this element only when the (Re)Association Response frame is actually encrypted. Processing it unconditionally for unencrypted frames leads to incorrect behavior. Without an explicit indication from the driver, userspace cannot determine whether encryption was used and whether the Key Delivery element is valid. Add a new flag attribute NL80211_ATTR_ASSOC_ENCRYPTED and a corresponding field "assoc_encrypted" in cfg80211_connect_resp_params to indicate that both the (Re)Association Request and Response frames are transmitted encrypted over the air. For mac80211-based drivers, extend cfg80211_rx_assoc_resp_data with the assoc_encrypted field as well, which is then propagated to cfg80211_connect_resp_params.

2026-05-05nfc: llcp: Fix use-after-free race in nfc_llcp_recv_cc()Lee Jones
A race condition exists in the NFC LLCP connection state machine where the connection acceptance packet (CC) can be processed concurrently with socket release. This can lead to a use-after-free of the socket object. When nfc_llcp_recv_cc() moves the socket from the connecting_sockets list to the sockets list, it does so without holding the socket lock. If llcp_sock_release() is executing concurrently, it might have already unlinked the socket and dropped its references, which can result in nfc_llcp_recv_cc() linking a freed socket into the live list. Fix this by holding lock_sock() during the state transition and list movement in nfc_llcp_recv_cc(). After acquiring the lock, check if the socket is still hashed to ensure it hasn't already been unlinked and marked for destruction by the release path. This aligns the locking pattern with recv_hdlc() and recv_disc().

2026-05-05xfrm: esp: avoid in-place decrypt on shared skb fragsKuan-Ting Chen
MSG_SPLICE_PAGES can attach pages from a pipe directly to an skb. TCP marks such skbs with SKBFL_SHARED_FRAG after skb_splice_from_iter(), so later paths that may modify packet data can first make a private copy. The IPv4/IPv6 datagram append paths did not set this flag when splicing pages into UDP skbs. That leaves an ESP-in-UDP packet made from shared pipe pages looking like an ordinary uncloned nonlinear skb. ESP input then takes the no-COW fast path for uncloned skbs without a frag_list and decrypts in place over data that is not owned privately by the skb. Mark IPv4/IPv6 datagram splice frags with SKBFL_SHARED_FRAG, matching TCP. Also make ESP input fall back to skb_cow_data() when the flag is present, so ESP does not decrypt externally backed frags in place. Private nonlinear skb frags still use the existing fast path. This intentionally does not change ESP output. In esp_output_head(), the path that appends the ESP trailer to existing skb tailroom without calling skb_cow_data() is not reachable for nonlinear skbs: skb_tailroom() returns zero when skb->data_len is nonzero, while ESP tailen is positive. Thus ESP output will either use the separate destination-frag path or fall back to skb_cow_data().

2026-05-04psp: strip variable-length PSP header in psp_dev_rcv()David Carlier
psp_dev_rcv() unconditionally removes a fixed PSP_ENCAP_HLEN, even when psph->hdrlen indicates that the PSP header carries optional fields. A frame whose PSP header advertises a non-zero VC or any extension would therefore be silently mis-decapsulated: option bytes would spill into the inner packet head and downstream parsing would fail on a corrupted skb. Compute the full PSP header length from psph->hdrlen, pull the optional bytes into the linear region, and strip the whole header when decapsulating. Optional fields (VC, ...) are still ignored, just discarded with the rest of the header instead of leaking. crypt_offset and the VIRT flag are intentionally not validated here - callers know their device's PSP implementation and can decide. Both in-tree callers gate on hardware-validated PSP, so this is a correctness fix rather than a reachable corruption path under current configurations.

When HMAC validation fails on a received ACK + MP_JOIN in subflow_syn_recv_sock(), the subflow is reset with reason MPTCP_RST_EPROHIBIT ("Administratively prohibited"). This is incorrect: HMAC validation failure is an MPTCP protocol-level error, not an administrative policy denial.

2026-05-04netpoll: pass buffer size to egress_dev() to avoid MAC truncationBreno Leitao
egress_dev() formats np->dev_mac via snprintf() but receives buf as a bare char *, so it cannot derive the buffer size from the pointer. The size argument was hardcoded to MAC_ADDR_STR_LEN (3 * ETH_ALEN - 1 = 17), which is silly wrong in two ways: 1) misleading kernel log output on the MAC-selected target path (np->dev_name[0] == '\0'); for example "aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff doesn't exist, aborting" was logged as "aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:f doesn't exist, aborting". 2) the second argument of snprintf is the size of the buffer, not the size of what you want to write. Add a bufsz parameter to egress_dev() and pass sizeof(buf) from each caller, matching the standard snprintf() idiom and removing the hardcoded size from the helper. Every caller already declares "char buf[MAC_ADDR_STR_LEN + 1]" so the formatted MAC continues to fit. Tested by booting with netconsole=6665@/aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff,6666@10.0.0.1/00:11:22:33:44:55 on a kernel without a matching device.

2026-05-05ipvs: fix races around est_mutex and est_cpulistJulian Anastasov
Sashiko reports for races and possible crash around the usage of est_cpulist_valid and sysctl_est_cpulist. The problem is that we do not lock est_mutex in some places which can lead to wrong write ordering and as result problems when calling cpumask_weight() and cpumask_empty(). Fix them by moving the est_max_threads read/write under locked est_mutex. Do the same for one ip_vs_est_reload_start() call to protect the cpumask_empty() usage of sysctl_est_cpulist. To remove the chance of deadlock while stopping the estimation kthreads, keep the data structure for kthread 0 even after last estimator is removed and do not hold mutexes while stopping this task. Now we will use a new flag 'needed' to know when kthread 0 should run. The kthreads above 0 do not use mutexes, so stop them under est_mutex because their kthread data still can be destroyed if they do not serve estimators. Now all kthreads will be started by the est_reload_work to properly serialize the stop/start for kthread 0. Reduce the use of service_mutex in ip_vs_est_calc_phase() because under est_mutex we can safely walk est_kt_arr to stop the kthreads above slot 0. As ip_vs_stop_estimator() for tot_stats should be called under service_mutex, do it early in the netns exit path in ip_vs_flush() to avoid locking the mutex again later. It still should be called in ip_vs_control_net_cleanup_sysctl() when we are called during netns init error. Use -2 for ktid as indicator if estimator was already stopped. Finally, fix use-after-free for kd->est_row in ip_vs_est_calc_phase(). est->ktrow should simply switch to a delay value while estimator is linked to est_temp_list.

2026-05-05ipvs: fix the spin_lock usage for RT buildJulian Anastasov
syzbot reports for sleeping function called from invalid context [1]. The recently added code for resizable hash tables uses hlist_bl bit locks in combination with spin_lock for the connection fields (cp->lock). Fix the following problems: * avoid using spin_lock(&cp->lock) under locked bit lock because it sleeps on PREEMPT_RT * as the recent changes call ip_vs_conn_hash() only for newly allocated connection, the spin_lock can be removed there because the connection is still not linked to table and does not need cp->lock protection. * the lock can be removed also from ip_vs_conn_unlink() where we are the last connection user. * the last place that is fixed is ip_vs_conn_fill_cport() where now the cp->lock is locked before the other locks to ensure other packets do not modify the cp->flags in non-atomic way. Here we make sure cport and flags are changed only once if two or more packets race to fill the cport. Also, we fill cport early, so that if we race with resizing there will be valid cport key for the hashing. Add a warning if too many hash table changes occur for our RCU read-side critical section which is error condition but minor because the connection still can expire gracefully. Still, restore the cport to 0 to allow retransmitted packet to properly fill the cport. Problems reported by Sashiko.

2026-05-05ipvs: fix races around the conn_lfactor and svc_lfactor sysctl varsJulian Anastasov
Sashiko warns that the new sysctls vars can be changed after the hash tables are destroyed and their respective resizing works canceled, leading to mod_delayed_work() being called for canceled works. Solve this in different ways. conn_tab can be present even without services and is destroyed only on netns exit, so use disable_delayed_work_sync() to disable the work instead of adding more synchronization mechanisms. As for the svc_table, it is destroyed when the services are deleted, so we must be sure that netns exit is not called yet (the check for 'enable') and the work is not canceled by checking all under same mutex lock. Also, use WRITE_ONCE when updating the sysctl vars as we already read them with READ_ONCE.

2026-05-05ipvs: fixes for the new ip_vs_status infoJulian Anastasov
Sashiko reports some problems for the recently added /proc/net/ip_vs_status: * ip_vs_status_show() as a table reader may run long after the conn_tab and svc_table table are released. While ip_vs_conn_flush() properly changes the conn_tab_changes counter when conn_tab is removed, ip_vs_del_service() and ip_vs_flush() were missing such change for the svc_table_changes counter. As result, readers like ip_vs_dst_event() and ip_vs_status_show() may continue to use a freed table after a cond_resched_rcu() call. * While counting the buckets in ip_vs_status_show() make sure we traverse only the needed number of entries in the chain. This also prevents possible overflow of the 'count' variable. * Add check for 'loops' to prevent infinite loops while restarting the traversal on table change. * While IP_VS_CONN_TAB_MAX_BITS is 20 on 32-bit platforms and there is no risk to overflow when multiplying the number of conn_tab buckets to 100, prefer the div_u64() helper to make the following dividing safer. * Use 0440 permissions for ip_vs_status to restrict the info only to root due to the exported information for hash distribution.
