Merge tag 'driver-core-7.3-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/driver-core/driver-coregrafted

Pull driver core fixes from Danilo Krummrich:

 - Fix kernfs listxattr() not returning security xattr names (e.g.
   SELinux labels) when the kernfs node has no allocated kernfs_iattrs

 - Fix silent truncation of IRQ vector indices in the Rust PCI
   abstractions

 - Don't select OF from DRIVER_PE_KUNIT_TEST; skip the test when OF is
   disabled instead of silently enabling extra kernel functionality

 - Russ Weight is retiring from kernel development; update the Firmware
   Loader sysfs contact to the driver-core mailing list, add a CREDITS
   entry for Firmware Upload, and update MAINTAINERS accordingly

* tag 'driver-core-7.3-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/driver-core/driver-core:
  MAINTAINERS: Remove Russ Weight from Firmware Loader
  CREDITS: Add CREDITS entry for Firmware Upload
  firmware_loader: Change contact for sysfs nodes
  rust: pci: reject IRQ vector indices that do not fit in u32
  kernfs: preserve security xattrs without allocating iattrs
  drivers: base: test: DRIVER_PE_KUNIT_TEST should not select OF

+======================
+DCTCP (DataCenter TCP)
+======================
+
+DCTCP is an enhancement to the TCP congestion control algorithm for data
+center networks and leverages Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN) in
+the data center network to provide multi-bit feedback to the end hosts.
+
+To enable it on end hosts::
+
+  sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_congestion_control=dctcp
+  sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_ecn_fallback=0 (optional)
+
+All switches in the data center network running DCTCP must support ECN
+marking and be configured for marking when reaching defined switch buffer
+thresholds. The default ECN marking threshold heuristic for DCTCP on
+switches is 20 packets (30KB) at 1Gbps, and 65 packets (~100KB) at 10Gbps,
+but might need further careful tweaking.
+
+For more details, see below documents:
