tools: net: package libynl for use in selftests

2024-07-03T01:59:33+00:00

Support building the C YNL userspace library into one big static file.
We can then link selftests against it for easy to use C netlink
interface.

tcp_metrics: add netlink protocol spec in YAML

2024-07-01T08:44:27+00:00

Add a protocol spec for tcp_metrics, so that it's accessible via YNL.
Useful at the very least for testing fixes.

In this episode of "10,000 ways to complicate netlink" the metric
nest has defines which are off by 1. iproute2 does:

        struct rtattr *m[TCP_METRIC_MAX + 1 + 1];

        parse_rtattr_nested(m, TCP_METRIC_MAX + 1, a);

        for (i = 0; i < TCP_METRIC_MAX + 1; i++) {
                // ...
                attr = m[i + 1];

This is too weird to support in YNL, add a new set of defines
with _correct_ values to the official kernel header.

ethtool: Add an interface for flashing transceiver modules' firmware

2024-06-28T09:48:22+00:00

CMIS compliant modules such as QSFP-DD might be running a firmware that
can be updated in a vendor-neutral way by exchanging messages between
the host and the module as described in section 7.3.1 of revision 5.2 of
the CMIS standard.

Add a pair of new ethtool messages that allow:

* User space to trigger firmware update of transceiver modules

* The kernel to notify user space about the progress of the process

The user interface is designed to be asynchronous in order to avoid
RTNL being held for too long and to allow several modules to be
updated simultaneously. The interface is designed with CMIS compliant
modules in mind, but kept generic enough to accommodate future use
cases, if these arise.

tools: ynl: use display hints for formatting of scalar attrs

2024-06-27T21:22:42+00:00

Use display hints for formatting scalar attrs. This is specifically
useful for formatting IPv4 addresses carried typically as u32.

Dan, who's working on C++ YNL, pointed out that the C code
does not make policies const. Sprinkle some 'const's around.

tools: ynl: make the attr and msg helpers more C++ friendly

2024-05-31T01:40:18+00:00

Folks working on a C++ codegen would like to reuse the attribute
helpers directly. Add the few necessary casts, it's not too ugly.

doc: netlink: Don't 'sanitize' op docstrings in generated .rst

2024-05-30T01:10:25+00:00

The doc strings for do/dump ops are emitted as toplevel .rst constructs
so they can be multi-line. Pass multi-line text straight through to the
.rst to retain any simple formatting from the .yaml

This fixes e.g. list formatting for the pin-get docs in dpll.yaml:
