Reverse parsing lets YNL convert bad and missing attr pointers
from extack into a string like "missing attribute nest1.nest2.attr_name".
It's a feature that's unique to YNL C AFAIU (even the Python YNL
can't do nested reverse parsing). Add support for reverse-parsing
of sub-messages.
To simplify the logic and the code annotate the type policies
with extra metadata. Mark the selectors and the messages with
the information we need. We assume that key / selector always
precedes the sub-message while parsing (and also if there are
multiple sub-messages like in rt-link they are interleaved
selector 1 ... submsg 1 ... selector 2 .. submsg 2, not
selector 1 ... selector 2 ... submsg 1 ... submsg 2).
The rt-link sample in a subsequent changes shows reverse parsing
of sub-messages in action.

Adjust parsing and rendering appropriately to make sub-messages work.
Rendering is pretty trivial, as the submsg -> netlink conversion looks
like rendering a nest in which only one attr was set. Only trick
is that we use the enum value of the sub-message rather than the nest
as the type, and effectively skip one layer of nesting. A real double
nested struct would look like this:
[SELECTOR]
[SUBMSG]
[NEST]
[MSG1-ATTR]
A submsg "is" the nest so by skipping I mean:
[SELECTOR]
[SUBMSG]
[MSG1-ATTR]
There is no extra validation in YNL if caller has set the selector
matching the submsg type (e.g. link type = "macvlan" but the nest
attrs are set to carry "veth"). Let the kernel handle that.
Parsing side is a little more specialized as we need to render and
insert a new kind of function which switches between what to parse
based on the selector. But code isn't too complicated.

The easiest (or perhaps only sane) way to support submessages in C
is to treat them as if they were nests. Build fake attributes to
that effect in the codegen. Render the submsg as a big nest of all
possible values.
With this in place the main missing part is to hook in the switch
which selects how to parse based on the key.

Prepare for constructing Struct() instances which represent

Restructure the code / indentation to more easily insert
a case where nested reference comes from annotation other
than the 'nested-attributes' property. Make sure we don't
construct the Struct() object from scratch in multiple

This appears to be a bug since there are existing specs which omit
"nested-attributes" on "multi-attr" attributes. Also, according to
Documentation/userspace-api/netlink/specs.rst, multi-attr "is the
recommended way of implementing arrays (no extra nesting)", suggesting
that nesting should even be avoided in favor of multi-attr.
Fix the indentation of the if-block introduced by the commit to avoid

Support using a struct pointer for binary attrs. Len field is maintained
because the structs may grow with newer kernel versions. Or, which matters
more, be shorter if the binary is built against newer uAPI than kernel
against which it's executed. Since we are storing a pointer to a struct
type - always allocate at least the amount of memory needed by the struct
per current uAPI headers (unused mem is zeroed). Technically users should
check the length field but per modern ASAN checks storing a short object
under a pointer seems like a bad idea.

While we reshuffle the presence members, move the counts as well.
Previously array count members would have been place directly in
the struct, so:
struct family_op_req {
struct {
u32 a:1;
u32 b:1;
} _present;
struct {
u32 bin;
} _len;
u32 a;
u64 b;
const unsigned char *bin;
u32 n_multi; << count
u32 *multi; << objects
};
Since len has been moved to its own presence struct move the count
as well:
struct family_op_req {
struct {
u32 a:1;
u32 b:1;
} _present;
struct {
u32 bin;
} _len;
struct {
u32 multi; << count
} _count;
u32 a;
u64 b;
const unsigned char *bin;
u32 *multi; << objects
};
This improves the consistency and allows us to remove some hacks
in the codegen. Unlike for len there is no known name collision
with the existing scheme.

Each YNL struct contains the data and a sub-struct indicating which
fields are valid. Something like:
struct family_op_req {
struct {
u32 a:1;
u32 b:1;
u32 bin_len;
} _present;
u32 a;
u64 b;
const unsigned char *bin;
};
Note that the bin object 'bin' has a length stored, and that length
has a _len suffix added to the field name. This breaks if there
is a explicit field called bin_len, which is the case for some
TC actions. Move the length fields out of the _present struct,
create a new struct called _len:
struct family_op_req {
struct {
u32 a:1;
u32 b:1;
} _present;
struct {
u32 bin;
} _len;
u32 a;
u64 b;
const unsigned char *bin;
};
This should prevent name collisions and help with the packing
of the struct.
Unfortunately this is a breaking change, but hopefully the migration
isn't too painful.

For C, however, the codegen is trying to use enums to generate strict

Since for classic netlink we don't support kernel codegen and policy

-
name: delrule-ntf
doc: Notify a rule deletion
value: 33
notify: getrule
We need to find the request by ID. Ideally we'd detect this model
from the spec properties, rather than assume that its what all
classic netlink families do. But maybe that'd cause this model
to spread and its easy to get wrong. For now assume CRUD == classic.

but the array may have contained pointers.
Refactor the code generation for free attr and reuse the generated
lines in setters to flush out the previous state. Since setters
are static inlines in the header we need to add forward declarations
for the free helpers of pure nested structs. Track which types get
used by arrays and include the right forwad declarations.
At least ethtool string set and bit set would not be freed without

generate it twice. This is called "type_consistent" in the generator.
Consider operations which only have dump to also be consistent.
This removes unnecessary "_dump" from the names. There's a number
of GET ops in classic Netlink which only have dump handlers.
Make sure we output the "onesided" types, normally if the type
is consistent we only output it when we render the do structures.

C codegen skips generating the structs if request/reply has no attrs.
In such cases the request op takes no argument and return int
(rather than response struct). In case of classic netlink a lot of
information gets passed using the fixed struct, however, so adjust
the logic to consider a request empty only if it has no attrs _and_
no fixed struct.

The Makefile.deps lists uAPI headers to make the build work when
system headers are older than in-tree headers. The problem doesn't
occur for new headers, because system headers are not there at all.
But out-of-tree YNL clone on GH also uses this header to identify
header dependencies, and one day the system headers will exist,
and will get out of date. So let's add the headers we missed.
I don't think this is a fix, but FWIW the commits which added
the missing headers are:
commit 04e65df94b ("netlink: spec: add shaper YAML spec")
commit 49922401c2 ("ethtool: separate definitions that are gonna be generated")

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

Empty nests are the same size as a flag at the netlink level
(just a 4 byte nlattr without a payload). They are sometimes
useful in case we want to only communicate a presence of
something but may want to add more details later.
This may be the case in the upcoming io_uring ZC patches,
for example.
Improve handling of nested empty structs. We already support
empty structs since a lot of netlink replies are empty, but
for nested ones we need minor tweaks to avoid pointless empty
lines and unused variables.

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 <SPEC> --subscribe <TOPIC> [ --duration <SECS> ]
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():

big-endian u16 and u32 ynl types.
Doing this enables those attributes to have range checks applied, as
the validator will then convert to host endianness prior to validation.
The autogenerated kernel/uapi code have been regenerated by running:
./tools/net/ynl/ynl-regen.sh -f
This changes the policy types of the following attributes:
FOU_ATTR_PORT (NLA_U16 -> NLA_BE16)
FOU_ATTR_PEER_PORT (NLA_U16 -> NLA_BE16)
These two are used with nla_get_be16/nla_put_be16().
MPTCP_PM_ADDR_ATTR_ADDR4 (NLA_U32 -> NLA_BE32)
This one is used with nla_get_in_addr/nla_put_in_addr(),
which uses nla_get_be32/nla_put_be32().

The above assumption held true within the current tree, but will be
