====================
ethtool netlink interface, part 2

This shorter series adds support for getting and setting of wake-on-lan
settings and message mask (originally message level). Together with the
code already in net-next, this will allow full implementation of
"ethtool <dev>" and "ethtool -s <dev> ...".

Older versions of the ethtool netlink series allowed getting WoL settings
by unprivileged users and only filtered out the password but this was
a source of controversy so for now, ETHTOOL_MSG_WOL_GET request always
requires CAP_NET_ADMIN as ETHTOOL_GWOL ioctl request does.

Merge branch 'ethtool-netlink-part-one'

Michal Kubecek says:

====================
ethtool netlink interface, part 1

This is first part of netlink based alternative userspace interface for
ethtool.

Merge branch 'ethtool-netlink-part-one'

Michal Kubecek says:

====================
ethtool netlink interface, part 1

This is first part of netlink based alternative userspace interface for
ethtool. It aims to address some long known issues with the ioctl
interface, mainly lack of extensibility, raciness, limited error reporting
and absence of notifications. The goal is to allow userspace ethtool
utility to provide all features it currently does but without using the
ioctl interface. However, some features provided by ethtool ioctl API will
be available through other netlink interfaces (rtnetlink, devlink) if it's
more appropriate.

The interface uses generic netlink family "ethtool" and provides multicast
group "monitor" which is used for notifications. Documentation for the
interface is in Documentation/networking/ethtool-netlink.rst file. The
netlink interface is optional, it is built when CONFIG_ETHTOOL_NETLINK
(bool) option is enabled.

There are three types of request messages distinguished by suffix "_GET"
(query for information), "_SET" (modify parameters) and "_ACT" (perform an
action). Kernel reply messages have name with additional suffix "_REPLY"
(e.g. ETHTOOL_MSG_SETTINGS_GET_REPLY). Most "_SET" and "_ACT" message types
do not have matching reply type as only some of them need additional reply
data beyond numeric error code and extack. Kernel also broadcasts
notification messages ("_NTF" suffix) on changes.

Basic concepts:

- make extensions easier not only by allowing new attributes but also by
imposing as few artificial limits as possible, e.g. by using arbitrary
size bit sets for most bitmap attributes or by not using fixed size
strings
- use extack for error reporting and warnings
- send netlink notifications on changes (even if they were done using the
ioctl interface) and actions
- avoid the racy read/modify/write cycle between kernel and userspace by
sending only attributes which userspace wants to change; there is still
a read/modify/write cycle between generic kernel code and ethtool_ops
handler in NIC driver but it is only in kernel and under RTNL lock
- reduce the number of name lists that need to be kept in sync between
kernel and userspace (e.g. recognized link modes)
- where feasible, allow dump requests to query specific information for all
network devices
- as parsing and generating netlink messages is more complicated than
simply copying data structures between userspace API and ethtool_ops
handlers (which most ioctl commands do), split the code into multiple
files in net/ethtool directory; move net/core/ethtool.c also to this
directory and rename it to ioctl.c

Changes between v8 and v9:

- fix ethnl_update_u8()
- fix description of ETHTOOL_A_LINKSTATE_LINK in rst file
- add explanation of verbose vs. compact bitset usage to documentation
- link ethtool-netlink.rst into toctree

Main changes between v7 and v8:

- preliminary patches sent as a separate series (already in net-next)
- split notification related changes out of _SET patches
- drop request specific flags from common header
- use FLAG/flag rather than GFLAG/gflag for global flags (as there are
only global flags now)
- allow device names up to ALTIFNAMSIZ characters
- rename ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_LIST to ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_NOMASK
- rename ETHTOOL_A_BIT{,S}_* to ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_BIT{,S}_*
- use standard bitset helpers for link modes (rather than in-place
conversion)
- use "default" rather than "standard" for unified _GET handlers
- fixed 64-bit big endian bitset code

Main changes between v6 and v7:

- split complex messages into small single purpose ones (drop info and
request masks and one level of nesting)
- separate request information and reply data into two structures
- refactor bitset handling (no simultaneous u32/ulong handling but avoid
kmalloc() except for long bitmaps on 64-bit big endian architectures)
- use only fixed size strings internally (will be replaced by char *
eventually but that will require rewriting also existing ioctl code)
- rework ethnl_update_* helpers to return error code
- rename request flag constants (to ETHTOOL_[GR]FLAG_ prefix)
- convert documentation to rst

Main changes between v5 and v6:

- use ETHTOOL_MSG_ prefix for message types
- replace ETHA_ prefix for netlink attributes by ETHTOOL_A_
- replace ETH_x_IM_y for infomask bits by ETHTOOL_IM_x_y
- split GET reply types from SET requests and notifications
- split kernel and userspace message types into different enums
- remove INFO_GET requests from submitted part
- drop EVENT notifications (use rtnetlink and on-demand string set load)
- reorganize patches to reduce the number of intermitent warnings
- unify request/reply header and its processing
- another nest around strings in a string set for consistency
- more consistent identifier naming
- coding style cleanup
- get rid of some of the helpers
- set bad attribute in extack where applicable
- various bug fixes
- improve documentation and code comments, more kerneldoc comments
- more verbose commit messages

Changes between v4 and v5:

- do not panic on failed initialization, only WARN()

Main changes between RFC v3 and v4:

- use more kerneldoc style comments
- strict attribute policy checking
- use macros for tables of link mode names and parameters
- provide permanent hardware address in rtnetlink
- coding style cleanup
- split too long patches, reorder
- wrap more ETHA_SETTINGS_* attributes in nests
- add also some SET_* implementation into submitted part

Main changes between RFC v2 and RFC v3:

- do not allow building as a module (no netdev notifiers needed)
- drop some obsolete fields
- add permanent hw address, timestamping and private flags support
- rework bitset handling to get rid of variable length arrays
- notify monitor on device renames
- restructure GET_SETTINGS/SET_SETTINGS messages
- split too long patches and submit only first part of the series

Main changes between RFC v1 and RFC v2:

- support dumps for all "get" requests
- provide notifications for changes related to supported request types
- support getting string sets (both global and per device)
- support getting/setting device features
- get rid of family specific header, everything passed as attributes
- split netlink code into multiple files in net/ethtool/ directory

ethtool: netlink bitset handling

The ethtool netlink code uses common framework for passing arbitrary
length bit sets to allow future extensions. A bitset can be a list (only
one bitmap) or can consist of value and mask pair (used e.g. when client
want to modify only some bits). A bitset can use one of two formats:
verbose (bit by bit) or compact.

Verbose format consists of bitset size (number of bits), list flag and
an array of bit nests, telling which bits are part of the list or which
bits are in the mask and which of them are to be set. In requests, bits
can be identified by index (position) or by name. In replies, kernel
provides both index and name. Verbose format is suitable for "one shot"
applications like standard ethtool command as it avoids the need to
either keep bit names (e.g. link modes) in sync with kernel or having to
add an extra roundtrip for string set request (e.g. for private flags).

Compact format uses one (list) or two (value/mask) arrays of 32-bit
words to store the bitmap(s). It is more suitable for long running
applications (ethtool in monitor mode or network management daemons)
which can retrieve the names once and then pass only compact bitmaps to
save space.

Userspace requests can use either format; ETHTOOL_FLAG_COMPACT_BITSETS
flag in request header tells kernel which format to use in reply.
Notifications always use compact format.

As some code uses arrays of unsigned long for internal representation and
some arrays of u32 (or even a single u32), two sets of parse/compose
helpers are introduced. To avoid code duplication, helpers for unsigned
long arrays are implemented as wrappers around helpers for u32 arrays.
There are two reasons for this choice: (1) u32 arrays are more frequent in
ethtool code and (2) unsigned long array can be always interpreted as an
u32 array on little endian 64-bit and all 32-bit architectures while we
would need special handling for odd number of u32 words in the opposite
direction.

====================
ethtool netlink interface, preliminary part

As Jakub Kicinski suggested in ethtool netlink v7 discussion, this
submission consists only of preliminary patches which raised no objections;
first four patches already have Acked-by or Reviewed-by.

- patch 1 exposes permanent hardware address (as shown by "ethtool -P")
via rtnetlink
- patch 2 is renames existing netlink helper to a better name
- patch 3 and 4 reorganize existing ethtool code (no functional change)
- patch 5 makes the table of link mode names available as an ethtool string
set (will be needed for the netlink interface)

Once we get these out of the way, v8 of the first part of the ethtool
netlink interface will follow.

Changes from v2 to v3: fix SPDX licence identifiers (patch 3 and 5).

Changes from v1 to v2: restore build time check that all link modes have
assigned a name (patch 5).
