tools: ynl-gen: validate 0 len strings from kernel

2025-06-04T12:42:16+00:00

[ Upstream commit 4720f9707c783f642332dee3d56dccaefa850e42 ] Strings from the kernel are guaranteed to be null terminated and ynl_attr_validate() checks for this. But it doesn't check if the string has a len of 0, which would cause problems when trying to access data[len - 1]. Fix this by checking that len is positive.

tools/net/ynl: ethtool: fix crash when Hardware Clock info is missing

2025-05-22T12:12:16+00:00

[ Upstream commit 45375814eb3f4245956c0c85092a4eee4441d167 ] Fix a crash in the ethtool YNL implementation when Hardware Clock information is not present in the response.

tools: ynl: don't ignore errors in NLMSG_DONE messages

[ Upstream commit a44f2eb106a46f2275a79de54ce0ea63e4f3d8c8 ] NLMSG_DONE contains an error code, it has to be extracted. Prior to this change all dumps will end in success, and in case of failure the result is silently truncated.

tools: ynl: fix setting presence bits in simple nests

2024-04-10T14:35:41+00:00

[ Upstream commit f6c8f5e8694c7a78c94e408b628afa6255cc428a ] When we set members of simple nested structures in requests we need to set "presence" bits for all the nesting layers below. This has nothing to do with the presence type of the last layer.

tools: ynl: fix handling of multiple mcast groups

2024-03-06T14:48:36+00:00

[ Upstream commit b6c65eb20ffa8e3bd89f551427dbeee2876d72ca ] We never increment the group number iterator, so all groups get recorded into index 0 of the mcast_groups[] array. As a result YNL can only handle using the last group. For example using the "netdev" sample on kernel with page pool commands results in: $ ./samples/netdev YNL: Multicast group 'mgmt' not found Most families have only one multicast group, so this hasn't been noticed. Plus perhaps developers usually test the last group which would have worked.

tools: ynl: make sure we always pass yarg to mnl_cb_run

2024-03-01T12:35:09+00:00

[ Upstream commit e4fe082c38cd74a8fa384bc7542cf3edf1cb7318 ] There is one common error handler in ynl - ynl_cb_error(). It expects priv to be a pointer to struct ynl_parse_arg AKA yarg. To avoid potential crashes if we encounter a stray NLMSG_ERROR always pass yarg as priv (or a struct which has it as the first member). ynl_cb_null() has a similar problem directly - it expects yarg but priv passed by the caller is ys. Found by code inspection.
