tools: ynl: c: correct reverse decode of empty attrs

2025-02-08T09:02:12+00:00

[ Upstream commit 964417a5d4a06614ef7fb3ae69bb17c91a2dc016 ] netlink reports which attribute was incorrect by sending back an attribute offset. Offset points to the address of struct nlattr, but to interpret the type we also need the nesting path. Attribute IDs have different meaning in different nests of the same message. Correct the condition for "is the offset within current attribute". ynl_attr_data_len() does not include the attribute header, so the end offset was off by 4 bytes. This means that we'd always skip over flags and empty nests. The devmem tests, for example, issues an invalid request with empty queue nests, resulting in the following error: YNL failed: Kernel error: missing attribute: .queues.ifindex The message is incorrect, "queues" nest does not have an "ifindex" attribute defined. With this fix we decend correctly into the nest: YNL failed: Kernel error: missing attribute: .queues.id Fixes: 86878f14d71a ("tools: ynl: user space helpers") Reviewed-by: Donald Hunter Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20250124012130.1121227-1-kuba@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin

tools/net/ynl: fix sub-message key lookup for nested attributes

2024-12-15T21:30:43+00:00

Use the correct attribute space for sub-message key lookup in nested attributes when adding attributes. This fixes rt_link where the "kind" key and "data" sub-message are nested attributes in "linkinfo". For example: ./tools/net/ynl/cli.py \ --create \ --spec Documentation/netlink/specs/rt_link.yaml \ --do newlink \ --json '{"link": 99, "linkinfo": { "kind": "vlan", "data": {"id": 4 } } }' Signed-off-by: Donald Hunter Fixes: ab463c4342d1 ("tools/net/ynl: Add support for encoding sub-messages") Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20241213130711.40267-1-donald.hunter@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski

tools: ynl-gen: allow uapi headers in sub-dirs

2024-11-19T02:38:07+00:00

Binder places its headers under include/uapi/linux/android/ Make sure replace / with _ in the uAPI header guard, the c_upper() is more strict and only converts - to _. This is likely a good constraint to have, to enforce sane naming in enums etc. But paths may include /.

tools/net/ynl: add async notification handling

2024-11-15T02:09:06+00:00

The notification handling in ynl is currently very simple, using sleep() to wait a period of time and then handling all the buffered messages in a single batch. This patch adds async notification handling so that messages can be processed as they are received. This makes it possible to use ynl as a library that supplies notifications in a timely manner. - Add poll_ntf() to be a generator that yields 1 notification at a time and blocks until a notification is available. - Add a --duration parameter to the CLI, with --sleep as an alias. ./tools/net/ynl/cli.py \ --spec --subscribe [ --duration ] The cli will report any notifications for duration seconds and then exit. If duration is not specified, then it will poll forever, until interrupted. Here is an example python snippet that shows how to use ynl as a library for receiving notifications: ynl = YnlFamily(f"{dir}/rt_route.yaml") ynl.ntf_subscribe('rtnlgrp-ipv4-route') for event in ynl.poll_ntf(): handle(event) Signed-off-by: Donald Hunter Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20241113090843.72917-3-donald.hunter@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski

This reverts commit 1bf70e6c3a5346966c25e0a1ff492945b25d3f80. This modification to check_ntf() is being reverted so that its behaviour remains equivalent to ynl_ntf_check() in the C YNL. Instead a new poll_ntf() will be added in a separate patch. Signed-off-by: Donald Hunter Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20241113090843.72917-2-donald.hunter@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski

tools: ynl-gen: de-kdocify enums with no doc for entries

2024-11-05T02:11:47+00:00

Sometimes the names of the enum entries are self-explanatory or come from standards. Forcing authors to write trivial kdoc for each of such entries seems unreasonable, but kdoc would complain about undocumented entries. Detect enums which only have documentation for the entire type and no documentation for entries. Render their doc as a plain comment.
