net: Add queue-create operation
Add a ynl netdev family operation called queue-create that creates a
new queue on a netdevice:
name: queue-create
attribute-set: queue
flags: [admi
net: Add queue-create operation
Add a ynl netdev family operation called queue-create that creates a
new queue on a netdevice:
name: queue-create
attribute-set: queue
flags: [admin-perm]
do:
request:
attributes:
- ifindex
- type
- lease
reply: &queue-create-op
attributes:
- id
This is a generic operation such that it can be extended for various
use cases in future. Right now it is mandatory to specify ifindex,
the queue type which is enforced to rx and a lease. The newly created
queue id is returned to the caller.
A queue from a virtual device can have a lease which refers to another
queue from a physical device. This is useful for memory providers
and AF_XDP operations which take an ifindex and queue id to allow
applications to bind against virtual devices in containers. The lease
couples both queues together and allows to proxy the operations from
a virtual device in a container to the physical device.
In future, the nested lease attribute can be lifted and made optional
for other use-cases such as dynamic queue creation for physical
netdevs. The lack of lease and the specification of the physical
device as an ifindex will imply that we need a real queue to be
allocated. Similarly, the queue type enforcement to rx can then be
lifted as well to support tx.
An early implementation had only driver-specific integration [0], but
in order for other virtual devices to reuse, it makes sense to have
this as a generic API in core net.
For leasing queues, the virtual netdev must have real_num_rx_queue
less than num_rx_queues at the time of calling queue-create. The
queue-type must be rx as only rx queues are supported for leasing
for now. We also enforce that the queue-create ifindex must point
to a virtual device, and that the nested lease attribute's ifindex
must point to a physical device. The nested lease attribute set
contains a netns-id attribute which is currently only intended for
dumping as part of the queue-get operation. Also, it is modeled as
an s32 type similarly as done elsewhere in the stack.

PM: EM: Add dump to get-perf-domains in the EM YNL spec
Add dump to get-perf-domains, so that a user can fetch either information
about a specific performance domain with do or information about all
performance domains with dump. Share the reply format of do and dump using
perf-domain-attrs, so remove perf-domains. The YNL spec, autogenerated
files, and the do implementation are updated, and the dump implementation
is added.

PM: EM: Change cpus' type from string to u64 array in the EM YNL spec
Previously, the cpus attribute was a string format which was a "%*pb"
stringification of a bitmap. That is not very consumable for a UAPI,
so let’s change it to an u64 array of CPU ids.

PM: EM: Rename em.yaml to dev-energymodel.yaml
The EM YNL specification used many acronyms, including ‘em’, ‘pd’,
‘ps’, etc. While the acronyms are short and convenient, they could be
confusing. So, let’s spell them out to be more specific. The following
changes were made in the spec. Note that the protocol name cannot exceed
GENL_NAMSIZ (16).
em -> dev-energymodel
pds -> perf-domains
pd -> perf-domain
pd-id -> perf-domain-id
pd-table -> perf-table
ps -> perf-state
get-pds -> get-perf-domains
get-pd-table -> get-perf-table
pd-created -> perf-domain-created
pd-updated -> perf-domain-updated
pd-deleted -> perf-domain-deleted
In addition. doc strings were added to the spec. based on the comments in
energy_model.h. Two flag attributes (perf-state-flags and
perf-domain-flags) were added for easily interpreting the bit flags.
Finally, the autogenerated files and em_netlink.c were updated accordingly
to reflect the name changes.

comments in wireguard
wireguard: netlink: add YNL specification
This patch adds a near[1] complete YNL specification for WireGuard,
documenting the protocol in a machine-readable format, rather than
comments in wireguard.h, and eases usage from C and non-C programming
languages alike.
The generated C library will be featured in a later patch, so in
this patch I will use the in-kernel python client for examples.
This makes the documentation in the UAPI header redundant, it is
therefore removed. The in-line documentation in the spec is based
on the existing comment in wireguard.h, and once released it will
be available in the kernel documentation at:
https://docs.kernel.org/netlink/specs/wireguard.html
(until then run: make htmldocs)
Generate wireguard.rst from this spec:
$ make -C tools/net/ynl/generated/ wireguard.rst
Query wireguard interface through pyynl:
$ sudo ./tools/net/ynl/pyynl/cli.py --family wireguard \
--dump get-device \
--json '{"ifindex":3}'
[{'fwmark': 0,
'ifindex': 3,
'ifname': 'wg-test',
'listen-port': 54318,
'peers': [{0: {'allowedips': [{0: {'cidr-mask': 0,
'family': 2,
'ipaddr': '0.0.0.0'}},
{0: {'cidr-mask': 0,
'family': 10,
'ipaddr': '::'}}],
'endpoint': b'[...]',
'last-handshake-time': {'nsec': 42, 'sec': 42},
'persistent-keepalive-interval': 42,
'preshared-key': '[...]',
'protocol-version': 1,
'public-key': '[...]',
'rx-bytes': 42,
'tx-bytes': 42}}],
'private-key': '[...]',
'public-key': '[...]'}]
Add another allowed IP prefix:
$ sudo ./tools/net/ynl/pyynl/cli.py --family wireguard \
--do set-device --json '{"ifindex":3,"peers":[
{"public-key":"6a df b1 83 a4 ..","allowedips":[
{"cidr-mask":0,"family":10,"ipaddr":"::"}]}]}'
[1] As can be seen above, the "endpoint" is only dumped as binary data,
as it can't be fully described in YNL. It's either a struct
sockaddr_in or struct sockaddr_in6 depending on the attribute length.
