Hello netdev-team,

this is a pull request of 11 patches for net-next/main and obsoletes
pull-request: linux-can-next-for-7.4-20261021.

The first patch is by Vincent Mailhol and drops CAN-XL frames on non
CAN-XL devices.

A patch by Sang-Heon Jeon removes a redundant NULL check before
netdev_hold() in the CAN RAW protocol.

A patch by Kaixuan Li for the CAN ISOTP protocol improves the check
for the correct CAN CC/FD frames.

The next 3 patches are by Cunhao Lu and make CAN skb freeing safe in
any context in several CAN helper functions.

A series by Oliver Hartkopp et al fixes several problems in the CAN
net-layer:

3 patches target the CAN procfs: A patch by Runyu Xiao resets the CAN
pkg_stats using atomics, a patch by Oliver Hartkopp fixes the stats
calculation after a statistics reset. Followed by a patch to remove
kernel pointers from the output.

The last 2 patches are by Oliver Hartkopp as well, they convert the
unreliable ARPHRD_CAN type check to the robust can_get_ml_priv() and
protect the CAN receive lists with a per-device lock.

I'm wrapping-up the net-next PR right now, and this will not make the
cut. Still all the material here, after forwarding the trees post PR,
looks like 'net' worthy. We could merge it afterwards.

Thanks Paolo!

Yes the patches are indeed mostly 'net' worthy fixes.

Unfortunately sashiko-bot complained about something new in my patch 11/11 and suggests to move some release_sock() calls 4 lines down behind sk_error_report(sk) :-/

Would you like to have that re-spin PR to be named as "net" PR ?
And when would it be best to be sent?

Best regards,
Oliver

Note that there is other net-next material in the same status.

Thanks,

Paolo
