| * ynl: broaden the license even moreJakub Kicinski2023-03-171-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I relicensed Netlink spec code to GPL-2.0 OR BSD-3-Clause but we still put a slightly different license on the uAPI header than the rest of the code. Use the Linux-syscall-note on all the specs and all generated code. It's moot for kernel code, but should not hurt. This way the licenses match everywhere.

* | netlink: specs: allow uapi-header in genetlinkJakub Kicinski2023-03-171-0/+3
|/ | | | | | | | | Chuck wanted to put the UAPI header in linux/net/ which seems reasonable, allow genetlink families to choose the location. It doesn't really matter for non-C-like languages. Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* ynl: re-license uniformly under GPL-2.0 OR BSD-3-ClauseJakub Kicinski2023-03-071-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | I was intending to make all the Netlink Spec code BSD-3-Clause to ease the adoption but it appears that: - I fumbled the uAPI and used "GPL WITH uAPI note" there - it gives people pause as they expect GPL in the kernel As suggested by Chuck re-license under dual. This gives us benefit of full BSD freedom while fulfilling the broad "kernel is under GPL" expectations.

* netlink: specs: finish up operation enum-modelsJakub Kicinski2023-02-011-3/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I had a (bright?) idea of introducing the concept of enum-models to account for all the weird ways families enumerate their messages. I've never finished it because generating C code for each of them is pretty daunting. But for languages which can use ID values directly the support is simple enough, so clean this up a bit. "unified" model is what I recommend going forward. "directional" model is what ethtool uses. "notify-split" is used by the proposed DPLL code, but we can just make them use "unified", it hasn't been merged :) Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
* netlink: add schemas for YAML specsJakub Kicinski2023-01-241-0/+298
Add schemas for Netlink spec files. As described in the docs we have 4 "protocols" or compatibility levels, and each one comes with its own schema, but the more general / legacy schemas are superset of more modern ones: genetlink is the smallest followed by genetlink-c and genetlink-legacy. There is no schema for raw netlink, yet, I haven't found the time.. I don't know enough jsonschema to do inheritance or something but the repetition is not too bad. I hope.
