Add initial support for RSS_SET, for now only operations on
the indirection table are supported.
Unlike the ioctl don't check if at least one parameter is
being changed. This is how other ethtool-nl ops behave,
so pick the ethtool-nl consistency vs copying ioctl behavior.
There are two special cases here:
1) resetting the table to defaults;
2) support for tables of different size.
For (1) I use an empty Netlink attribute (array of size 0).
(2) may require some background. AFAICT a lot of modern devices
allow allocating RSS tables of different sizes. mlx5 can upsize
its tables, bnxt has some "table size calculation", and Intel
folks asked about RSS table sizing in context of resource allocation
in the past. The ethtool IOCTL API has a concept of table size,
but right now the user is expected to provide a table exactly
the size the device requests. Some drivers may change the table
size at runtime (in response to queue count changes) but the
user is not in control of this. What's not great is that all
RSS contexts share the same table size. For example a device
with 128 queues enabled, 16 RSS contexts 8 queues in each will
likely have 256 entry tables for each of the 16 contexts,
while 32 would be more than enough given each context only has
8 queues. To address this the Netlink API should avoid enforcing
table size at the uAPI level, and should allow the user to express
the min table size they expect.
To fully solve (2) we will need more driver plumbing but
at the uAPI level this patch allows the user to specify
a table size smaller than what the device advertises. The device
table size must be a multiple of the user requested table size.
We then replicate the user-provided table to fill the full device
size table. This addresses the "allow the user to express the min
table size" objective, while not enforcing any fixed size.
From Netlink perspective .get_rxfh_indir_size() is now de facto
the "max" table size supported by the device.
We may choose to support table replication in ethtool, too,
when we actually plumb this thru the device APIs.
Initially I was considering moving full pattern generation
to the kernel (which queues to use, at which frequency and
what min sequence length). I don't think this complexity
would buy us much and most if not all devices have pow-2
table sizes, which simplifies the replication a lot.

A net device has a threaded sysctl that can be used to enable threaded
NAPI polling on all of the NAPI contexts under that device. Allow
enabling threaded NAPI polling at individual NAPI level using netlink.
Extend the netlink operation `napi-set` and allow setting the threaded
attribute of a NAPI. This will enable the threaded polling on a NAPI
context.
Add a test in `nl_netdev.py` that verifies various cases of threaded
NAPI being set at NAPI and at device level.

Implement ETHTOOL_GRXFH over Netlink. The number of flow types is
reasonable (around 20) so report all of them at once for simplicity.
Do not maintain the flow ID mapping with ioctl at the uAPI level.
This gives us a chance to clean up the confusion that come from
RxNFC vs RxFH (flow direction vs hashing) in the ioctl.
Try to align with the names used in ethtool CLI, they seem to have
stood the test of time just fine. One annoyance is that we still
call L4 ports the weird names, but I guess they also apply to IPSec
(where they cover the SPI) so it is what it is.

Looks like some drivers (ena, enetc, fbnic.. there's probably more)
consider ETHER_FLOW to be legitimate target for flow hashing.
I'm not sure how intentional that is from the uAPI perspective
vs just an effect of ethtool IOCTL doing minimal input validation.
But Netlink will do strict validation, so we need to decide whether
we allow this use case or not. I don't see a strong reason against
it, and rejecting it would potentially regress a number of drivers.
So update the comments and flow_type_hashable().

Paolo Abeni says:
====================
virtio: introduce GSO over UDP tunnel
Some virtualized deployments use UDP tunnel pervasively and are impacted
negatively by the lack of GSO support for such kind of traffic in the
virtual NIC driver.
The virtio_net specification recently introduced support for GSO over
UDP tunnel, this series updates the virtio implementation to support
such a feature.
Currently the kernel virtio support limits the feature space to 64,
while the virtio specification allows for a larger number of features.
Specifically the GSO-over-UDP-tunnel-related virtio features use bits
65-69.
The first four patches in this series rework the virtio and vhost
feature support to cope with up to 128 bits. The limit is set by
a define and could be easily raised in future, as needed.
This implementation choice is aimed at keeping the code churn as
limited as possible. For the same reason, only the virtio_net driver is
reworked to leverage the extended feature space; all other
virtio/vhost drivers are unaffected, but could be upgraded to support
the extended features space in a later time.
The last four patches bring in the actual GSO over UDP tunnel support.
As per specification, some additional fields are introduced into the
virtio net header to support the new offload. The presence of such
fields depends on the negotiated features.
New helpers are introduced to convert the UDP-tunneled skb metadata to
an extended virtio net header and vice versa. Such helpers are used by
the tun and virtio_net driver to cope with the newly supported offloads.
Tested with basic stream transfer with all the possible permutations of
host kernel/qemu/guest kernel with/without GSO over UDP tunnel support.

This patch provides a setsockopt method to let applications leverage to
adjust how many descs to be handled at most in one send syscall. It
mitigates the situation where the default value (32) that is too small
leads to higher frequency of triggering send syscall.
Considering the prosperity/complexity the applications have, there is no
absolutely ideal suggestion fitting all cases. So keep 32 as its default
value like before.
The patch does the following things:
- Add XDP_MAX_TX_SKB_BUDGET socket option.
- Set max_tx_budget to 32 by default in the initialization phase as a
per-socket granular control.
- Set the range of max_tx_budget as [32, xs->tx->nentries].
The idea behind this comes out of real workloads in production. We use a
user-level stack with xsk support to accelerate sending packets and
minimize triggering syscalls. When the packets are aggregated, it's not
hard to hit the upper bound (namely, 32). The moment user-space stack
fetches the -EAGAIN error number passed from sendto(), it will loop to try
again until all the expected descs from tx ring are sent out to the driver.
Enlarging the XDP_MAX_TX_SKB_BUDGET value contributes to less frequency of
sendto() and higher throughput/PPS.
Here is what I did in production, along with some numbers as follows:
For one application I saw lately, I suggested using 128 as max_tx_budget
because I saw two limitations without changing any default configuration:
1) XDP_MAX_TX_SKB_BUDGET, 2) socket sndbuf which is 212992 decided by
net.core.wmem_default. As to XDP_MAX_TX_SKB_BUDGET, the scenario behind
this was I counted how many descs are transmitted to the driver at one
time of sendto() based on [1] patch and then I calculated the
possibility of hitting the upper bound. Finally I chose 128 as a
suitable value because 1) it covers most of the cases, 2) a higher
number would not bring evident results. After twisting the parameters,
a stable improvement of around 4% for both PPS and throughput and less
resources consumption were found to be observed by strace -c -p xxx:
1) %time was decreased by 7.8%
2) error counter was decreased from 18367 to 572

We have an application that uses almost the same code for TCP and
AF_UNIX (SOCK_STREAM).
TCP can use TCP_INQ, but AF_UNIX doesn't have it and requires an
extra syscall, ioctl(SIOCINQ) or getsockopt(SO_MEMINFO) as an
alternative.
Let's introduce the generic version of TCP_INQ.
If SO_INQ is enabled, recvmsg() will put a cmsg of SCM_INQ that
contains the exact value of ioctl(SIOCINQ). The cmsg is also
included when msg->msg_get_inq is non-zero to make sockets
io_uring-friendly.
Note that SOCK_CUSTOM_SOCKOPT is flagged only for SOCK_STREAM to
override setsockopt() for SOL_SOCKET.
By having the flag in struct unix_sock, instead of struct sock, we
can later add SO_INQ support for TCP and reuse tcp_sk(sk)->recvmsg_inq.
Note also that supporting custom getsockopt() for SOL_SOCKET will need
preparation for other SOCK_CUSTOM_SOCKOPT users (UDP, vsock, MPTCP).

The virtio specification are introducing support for GSO over UDP
tunnel.
This patch brings in the needed defines and the additional virtio hdr
parsing/building helpers.
The UDP tunnel support uses additional fields in the virtio hdr, and such
fields location can change depending on other negotiated features -
specifically VIRTIO_NET_F_HASH_REPORT.
Try to be as conservative as possible with the new field validation.
Existing implementation for plain GSO offloads allow for invalid/
self-contradictory values of such fields. With GSO over UDP tunnel we can
be more strict, with no need to deal with legacy implementation.
Since the checksum-related field validation is asymmetric in the driver
and in the device, introduce a separate helper to implement the new checks
(to be used only on the driver side).
Note that while the feature space exceeds the 64-bit boundaries, the
guest offload space is fixed by the specification of the
VIRTIO_NET_CTRL_GUEST_OFFLOADS_SET command to a 64-bit size.
Prior to the UDP tunnel GSO support, each guest offload bit corresponded
to the feature bit with the same value and vice versa.
Due to the limited 'guest offload' space, relevant features in the high
64 bits are 'mapped' to free bits in the lower range. That is simpler
than defining a new command (and associated features) to exchange an
extended guest offloads set.
As a consequence, the uAPIs also specify the mapped guest offload value
corresponding to the UDP tunnel GSO features.

BITS_PER_LONG does not exist in UAPI headers, so can't be used by the UAPI
__GENMASK(). Instead __BITS_PER_LONG needs to be used.
When __GENMASK() was introduced in commit 3c7a8e190b ("uapi: introduce uapi-friendly macros for GENMASK"),
the code was fine. A broken revert in 1e7933a575 ("uapi: Revert "bitops: avoid integer overflow in GENMASK(_ULL)"")
introduced the incorrect usage of BITS_PER_LONG.
That was fixed in commit 11fcf36850 ("uapi: bitops: use UAPI-safe variant of BITS_PER_LONG again").
But a broken sync of the kernel headers with the tools/ headers in

undid the fix.

This change allows for gateway routing, where a route table entry
may reference a routable endpoint (by network and EID), instead of
routing directly to a netdevice.
We add support for a RTM_GATEWAY attribute for netlink route updates,
with an attribute format of:
struct mctp_fq_addr {
unsigned int net;
mctp_eid_t eid;
}
- we need the net here to uniquely identify the target EID, as we no
longer have the device reference directly (which would provide the net
id in the case of direct routes).
This makes route lookups recursive, as a route lookup that returns a
gateway route must be resolved into a direct route (ie, to a device)
eventually. We provide a limit to the route lookups, to prevent infinite
loop routing.
The route lookup populates a new 'nexthop' field in the dst structure,
which now specifies the key for the neighbour table lookup on device
output, rather than using the packet destination address directly.

When a packet enters OVS datapath and there is no flow to handle it,
packet goes to userspace through a MISS upcall. With per-CPU upcall
dispatch mechanism, we're using the current CPU id to select the
Netlink PID on which to send this packet. This allows us to send
packets from the same traffic flow through the same handler.
The handler will process the packet, install required flow into the
kernel and re-inject the original packet via OVS_PACKET_CMD_EXECUTE.
While handling OVS_PACKET_CMD_EXECUTE, however, we may hit a
recirculation action that will pass the (likely modified) packet
through the flow lookup again. And if the flow is not found, the
packet will be sent to userspace again through another MISS upcall.
However, the handler thread in userspace is likely running on a
different CPU core, and the OVS_PACKET_CMD_EXECUTE request is handled
in the syscall context of that thread. So, when the time comes to
send the packet through another upcall, the per-CPU dispatch will
choose a different Netlink PID, and this packet will end up processed
by a different handler thread on a different CPU.
The process continues as long as there are new recirculations, each
time the packet goes to a different handler thread before it is sent
out of the OVS datapath to the destination port. In real setups the
number of recirculations can go up to 4 or 5, sometimes more.
There is always a chance to re-order packets while processing upcalls,
because userspace will first install the flow and then re-inject the
original packet. So, there is a race window when the flow is already
installed and the second packet can match it and be forwarded to the
destination before the first packet is re-injected. But the fact that
packets are going through multiple upcalls handled by different
userspace threads makes the reordering noticeably more likely, because
we not only have a race between the kernel and a userspace handler
(which is hard to avoid), but also between multiple userspace handlers.
For example, let's assume that 10 packets got enqueued through a MISS
upcall for handler-1, it will start processing them, will install the
flow into the kernel and start re-injecting packets back, from where
they will go through another MISS to handler-2. Handler-2 will install
the flow into the kernel and start re-injecting the packets, while
handler-1 continues to re-inject the last of the 10 packets, they will
hit the flow installed by handler-2 and be forwarded without going to
the handler-2, while handler-2 still re-injects the first of these 10
packets. Given multiple recirculations and misses, these 10 packets
may end up completely mixed up on the output from the datapath.
Let's allow userspace to specify on which Netlink PID the packets
should be upcalled while processing OVS_PACKET_CMD_EXECUTE.
This makes it possible to ensure that all the packets are processed
by the same handler thread in the userspace even with them being
upcalled multiple times in the process. Packets will remain in order
since they will be enqueued to the same socket and re-injected in the
same order. This doesn't eliminate re-ordering as stated above, since
we still have a race between kernel and the userspace thread, but it
allows to eliminate races between multiple userspace threads.
Userspace knows the PID of the socket on which the original upcall is
received, so there is no need to send it up from the kernel.
Solution requires storing the value somewhere for the duration of the
packet processing. There are two potential places for this: our skb
extension or the per-CPU storage. It's not clear which is better,
so just following currently used scheme of storing this kind of things
along the skb. We still have a decent amount of space in the cb.

Introduce support for specifying relative bandwidth shares between
traffic classes (TC) in the devlink-rate API. This new option allows
users to allocate bandwidth across multiple traffic classes in a
single command.
This feature provides a more granular control over traffic management,
especially for scenarios requiring Enhanced Transmission Selection.
Users can now define a relative bandwidth share for each traffic class.
For example, assigning share values of 20 to TC0 (TCP/UDP) and 80 to TC5
(RoCE) will result in TC0 receiving 20% and TC5 receiving 80% of the
total bandwidth. The actual percentage each class receives depends on
the ratio of its share value to the sum of all shares.
Example:
DEV=pci/0000:08:00.0
$ devlink port function rate add $DEV/vfs_group tx_share 10Gbit \
tx_max 50Gbit tc-bw 0:20 1:0 2:0 3:0 4:0 5:80 6:0 7:0
$ devlink port function rate set $DEV/vfs_group \
tc-bw 0:20 1:0 2:0 3:0 4:0 5:20 6:60 7:0
Example usage with ynl:
./tools/net/ynl/cli.py --spec Documentation/netlink/specs/devlink.yaml \
--do rate-set --json '{

tl;dr
=====
Add a new neighbor flag ("extern_valid") that can be used to indicate to
the kernel that a neighbor entry was learned and determined to be valid
externally. The kernel will not try to remove or invalidate such an
entry, leaving these decisions to the user space control plane. This is
needed for EVPN multi-homing where a neighbor entry for a multi-homed
host needs to be synced across all the VTEPs among which the host is
multi-homed.
Background
==========
In a typical EVPN multi-homing setup each host is multi-homed using a
set of links called ES (Ethernet Segment, i.e., LAG) to multiple leaf
switches (VTEPs). VTEPs that are connected to the same ES are called ES
peers.
When a neighbor entry is learned on a VTEP, it is distributed to both ES
peers and remote VTEPs using EVPN MAC/IP advertisement routes. ES peers
use the neighbor entry when routing traffic towards the multi-homed host
and remote VTEPs use it for ARP/NS suppression.
Motivation
==========
If the ES link between a host and the VTEP on which the neighbor entry
was locally learned goes down, the EVPN MAC/IP advertisement route will
be withdrawn and the neighbor entries will be removed from both ES peers
and remote VTEPs. Routing towards the multi-homed host and ARP/NS
suppression can fail until another ES peer locally learns the neighbor
entry and distributes it via an EVPN MAC/IP advertisement route.
"draft-rbickhart-evpn-ip-mac-proxy-adv-03" [1] suggests avoiding these
intermittent failures by having the ES peers install the neighbor
entries as before, but also injecting EVPN MAC/IP advertisement routes
with a proxy indication. When the previously mentioned ES link goes down
and the original EVPN MAC/IP advertisement route is withdrawn, the ES
peers will not withdraw their neighbor entries, but instead start aging
timers for the proxy indication.
If an ES peer locally learns the neighbor entry (i.e., it becomes
"reachable"), it will restart its aging timer for the entry and emit an
EVPN MAC/IP advertisement route without a proxy indication. An ES peer
will stop its aging timer for the proxy indication if it observes the
removal of the proxy indication from at least one of the ES peers
advertising the entry.
In the event that the aging timer for the proxy indication expired, an
ES peer will withdraw its EVPN MAC/IP advertisement route. If the timer
expired on all ES peers and they all withdrew their proxy
advertisements, the neighbor entry will be completely removed from the
EVPN fabric.
Implementation
==============
In the above scheme, when the control plane (e.g., FRR) advertises a
neighbor entry with a proxy indication, it expects the corresponding
entry in the data plane (i.e., the kernel) to remain valid and not be
removed due to garbage collection or loss of carrier. The control plane
also expects the kernel to notify it if the entry was learned locally
(i.e., became "reachable") so that it will remove the proxy indication
from the EVPN MAC/IP advertisement route. That is why these entries
cannot be programmed with dummy states such as "permanent" or "noarp".
Instead, add a new neighbor flag ("extern_valid") which indicates that
the entry was learned and determined to be valid externally and should
not be removed or invalidated by the kernel. The kernel can probe the
entry and notify user space when it becomes "reachable" (it is initially
installed as "stale"). However, if the kernel does not receive a
confirmation, have it return the entry to the "stale" state instead of
the "failed" state.
In other words, an entry marked with the "extern_valid" flag behaves
like any other dynamically learned entry other than the fact that the
kernel cannot remove or invalidate it.
One can argue that the "extern_valid" flag should not prevent garbage
collection and that instead a neighbor entry should be programmed with
both the "extern_valid" and "extern_learn" flags. There are two reasons
for not doing that:
1. Unclear why a control plane would like to program an entry that the
kernel cannot invalidate but can completely remove.
2. The "extern_learn" flag is used by FRR for neighbor entries learned
on remote VTEPs (for ARP/NS suppression) whereas here we are
concerned with local entries. This distinction is currently irrelevant
for the kernel, but might be relevant in the future.
Given that the flag only makes sense when the neighbor has a valid
state, reject attempts to add a neighbor with an invalid state and with
this flag set. For example:
# ip neigh add 192.0.2.1 nud none dev br0.10 extern_valid
Error: Cannot create externally validated neighbor with an invalid state.
# ip neigh add 192.0.2.1 lladdr 00:11:22:33:44:55 nud stale dev br0.10 extern_valid
# ip neigh replace 192.0.2.1 nud failed dev br0.10 extern_valid
Error: Cannot mark neighbor as externally validated with an invalid state.
The above means that a neighbor cannot be created with the
"extern_valid" flag and flags such as "use" or "managed" as they result
in a neighbor being created with an invalid state ("none") and
immediately getting probed:
# ip neigh add 192.0.2.1 lladdr 00:11:22:33:44:55 nud stale dev br0.10 extern_valid use
Error: Cannot create externally validated neighbor with an invalid state.
However, these flags can be used together with "extern_valid" after the
neighbor was created with a valid state:
# ip neigh add 192.0.2.1 lladdr 00:11:22:33:44:55 nud stale dev br0.10 extern_valid
# ip neigh replace 192.0.2.1 lladdr 00:11:22:33:44:55 nud stale dev br0.10 extern_valid use
One consequence of preventing the kernel from invalidating a neighbor
entry is that by default it will only try to determine reachability
using unicast probes. This can be changed using the "mcast_resolicit"
sysctl:
# sysctl net.ipv4.neigh.br0/10.mcast_resolicit
0
# tcpdump -nn -e -i br0.10 -Q out arp &
# ip neigh replace 192.0.2.1 lladdr 00:11:22:33:44:55 nud stale dev br0.10 extern_valid use

Currently, per-radio attributes are set on per-phy basis, i.e., all the
radios present in a wiphy will take attributes values sent from user. But
each radio in a wiphy can get different values from userspace based on
its requirement.
To extend support to set per-radio attributes, add support to get radio
index from userspace. Add an NL attribute - NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_RADIO_INDEX,
to get user specified radio index for which attributes should be changed.
Pass this to individual drivers, so that the drivers can use this radio
index to change per-radio attributes when necessary. Currently, per-radio
attributes identified are:
NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_TX_POWER_LEVEL
NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_ANTENNA_TX
NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_ANTENNA_RX
NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_RETRY_SHORT
NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_RETRY_LONG
NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_FRAG_THRESHOLD
NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_RTS_THRESHOLD
NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_COVERAGE_CLASS
NL80211_ATTR_TXQ_LIMIT
NL80211_ATTR_TXQ_MEMORY_LIMIT
NL80211_ATTR_TXQ_QUANTUM
By default, the radio index is set to -1. This means the attribute should
be treated as a global configuration. If the user has not specified any
index, then the radio index passed to individual drivers would be -1. This
would indicate that the attribute applies to all radios in that wiphy.

Exit to userspace for TDG.VP.VMCALL<GetTdVmCallInfo> via KVM_EXIT_TDX,
to allow userspace to provide information about the support of
TDVMCALLs when r12 is 1 for the TDVMCALLs beyond the GHCI base API.
GHCI spec defines the GHCI base TDVMCALLs: <GetTdVmCallInfo>, <MapGPA>,
<ReportFatalError>, <Instruction.CPUID>, <#VE.RequestMMIO>,
<Instruction.HLT>, <Instruction.IO>, <Instruction.RDMSR> and
<Instruction.WRMSR>. They must be supported by VMM to support TDX guests.
For GetTdVmCallInfo
- When leaf (r12) to enumerate TDVMCALL functionality is set to 0,
successful execution indicates all GHCI base TDVMCALLs listed above are
supported.
Update the KVM TDX document with the set of the GHCI base APIs.
- When leaf (r12) to enumerate TDVMCALL functionality is set to 1, it
indicates the TDX guest is querying the supported TDVMCALLs beyond
the GHCI base TDVMCALLs.
Exit to userspace to let userspace set the TDVMCALL sub-function bit(s)
accordingly to the leaf outputs. KVM could set the TDVMCALL bit(s)
supported by itself when the TDVMCALLs don't need support from userspace
after returning from userspace and before entering guest. Currently, no
such TDVMCALLs implemented, KVM just sets the values returned from
userspace.

Handle TDVMCALL for GetQuote to generate a TD-Quote.
GetQuote is a doorbell-like interface used by TDX guests to request VMM
to generate a TD-Quote signed by a service hosting TD-Quoting Enclave
operating on the host. A TDX guest passes a TD Report (TDREPORT_STRUCT) in
a shared-memory area as parameter. Host VMM can access it and queue the
operation for a service hosting TD-Quoting enclave. When completed, the
Quote is returned via the same shared-memory area.
KVM only checks the GPA from the TDX guest has the shared-bit set and drops
the shared-bit before exiting to userspace to avoid bleeding the shared-bit
into KVM's exit ABI. KVM forwards the request to userspace VMM (e.g. QEMU)
and userspace VMM queues the operation asynchronously. KVM sets the return
code according to the 'ret' field set by userspace to notify the TDX guest
whether the request has been queued successfully or not. When the request
has been queued successfully, the TDX guest can poll the status field in
the shared-memory area to check whether the Quote generation is completed
or not. When completed, the generated Quote is returned via the same
buffer.
Add KVM_EXIT_TDX as a new exit reason to userspace. Userspace is
required to handle the KVM exit reason as the initial support for TDX,
by reentering KVM to ensure that the TDVMCALL is complete. While at it,
add a note that KVM_EXIT_HYPERCALL also requires reentry with KVM_RUN.

In the case of SME-in-driver, the driver can internally choose to
update the links based on the AP MLD recommendation and do link
reconfiguration negotiation with AP MLD.
(e.g., After the driver processing the BSS Transition Management request
frame received from the AP MLD with Neighbor Report containing
Multi-Link element with recommended links information chooses to do link
reconfiguration negotiation with AP MLD).
To support this, extend cfg80211_mlo_reconf_add_done() and
NL80211_CMD_ASSOC_MLO_RECONF to indicate added links information for
driver-initiated link reconfiguration requests. For removed links,
the driver indicates links information using the
NL80211_CMD_LINKS_REMOVED event for driver-initiated cases, the same as
supplicant initiated cases.
For the driver-initiated case, cfg80211 will receive link
reconfiguration result asynchronously from driver so holding BSSes of
the accepted add links is needed in the event path. Also, no need of
unhold call for the rejected add link BSSes since there was no hold call
happened previously.
Once the supplicant receives the NL80211_CMD_ASSOC_MLO_RECONF event,
it needs to process the information about newly added links and install
per-link group keys (e.g., GTK/IGTK/BIGTK etc.).
In case of the SME-in-driver, using a vendor interface etc. to notify
the supplicant to initiate a link reconfiguration request and then
supplicant sending command to the cfg80211 can lead to race conditions.
The correct design to avoid this is that the driver indicates the
cfg80211 directly with the results of the link reconfiguration
negotiation.

This patch introduces the ability to configure the PSE PI budget evaluation
strategies. Budget evaluation strategies is utilized by PSE controllers to
determine which ports to turn off first in scenarios such as power budget
exceedance.
The pis_prio_max value is used to define the maximum priority level
supported by the controller. Both the current priority and the maximum
priority are exposed to the user through the pse_ethtool_get_status call.
This patch add support for two mode of budget evaluation strategies.
1. Static Method:
This method involves distributing power based on PD classification.
It’s straightforward and stable, the PSE core keeping track of the
budget and subtracting the power requested by each PD’s class.
Advantages: Every PD gets its promised power at any time, which
guarantees reliability.
Disadvantages: PD classification steps are large, meaning devices
request much more power than they actually need. As a result, the power
supply may only operate at, say, 50% capacity, which is inefficient and
wastes money.
Priority max value is matching the number of PSE PIs within the PSE.
2. Dynamic Method:
To address the inefficiencies of the static method, vendors like
Microchip have introduced dynamic power budgeting, as seen in the
PD692x0 firmware. This method monitors the current consumption per port
and subtracts it from the available power budget. When the budget is
exceeded, lower-priority ports are shut down.
Advantages: This method optimizes resource utilization, saving costs.
Disadvantages: Low-priority devices may experience instability.
Priority max value is set by the PSE controller driver.
For now, budget evaluation methods are not configurable and cannot be
mixed. They are hardcoded in the PSE driver itself, as no current PSE
controller supports both methods.

Commit under fixes switched to uAPI generation from the YAML
spec. A number of custom defines were left behind, mostly
for commands very hard to express in YAML spec.
Among what was left behind was the name and version of
the generic netlink family. Problem is that the codegen
always outputs those values so we ended up with a duplicated,
differently named set of defines.
Provide naming info in YAML and remove the incorrect defines.
