mptcp: no admin perm to list endpoints

2024-11-14T12:21:08+00:00

commit cfbbd4859882a5469f6f4945937a074ee78c4b46 upstream.

During the switch to YNL, the command to list all endpoints has been
accidentally restricted to users with admin permissions.

It looks like there are no reasons to have this restriction which makes
it harder for a user to quickly check if the endpoint list has been
correctly populated by an automated tool. Best to go back to the
previous behaviour then.

mptcp_pm_gen.c has been modified using ynl-gen-c.py:

   $ ./tools/net/ynl/ynl-gen-c.py --mode kernel \
     --spec Documentation/netlink/specs/mptcp_pm.yaml --source \
     -o net/mptcp/mptcp_pm_gen.c

The header file doesn't need to be regenerated.

dpll: add Embedded SYNC feature for a pin

2024-11-08T15:30:47+00:00

[ Upstream commit cda1fba15cb2282b3c364805c9767698f11c3b0e ]

Implement and document new pin attributes for providing Embedded SYNC
capabilities to the DPLL subsystem users through a netlink pin-get
do/dump messages. Allow the user to set Embedded SYNC frequency with
pin-set do netlink message.

netlink: specs: mptcp: fix port endianness

2024-09-12T03:42:47+00:00

The MPTCP port attribute is in host endianness, but was documented
as big-endian in the ynl specification.

Below are two examples from net/mptcp/pm_netlink.c showing that the
attribute is converted to/from host endianness for use with netlink.

Import from netlink:
  addr->port = htons(nla_get_u16(tb[MPTCP_PM_ADDR_ATTR_PORT]))

Export to netlink:
  nla_put_u16(skb, MPTCP_PM_ADDR_ATTR_PORT, ntohs(addr->port))

Where addr->port is defined as __be16.

No functional change intended.

ethtool: rss: echo the context number back

2024-07-25T23:23:47+00:00

The response to a GET request in Netlink should fully identify
the queried object. RSS_GET accepts context id as an input,
so it must echo that attribute back to the response.

After (assuming context 1 has been created):

  $ ./cli.py --spec netlink/specs/ethtool.yaml \
             --do rss-get \
	     --json '{"header": {"dev-index": 2}, "context": 1}'
  {'context': 1,
   'header': {'dev-index': 2, 'dev-name': 'eth0'},
  [...]

netlink: specs: correct the spec of ethtool

2024-07-25T23:23:47+00:00

The spec for Ethtool is a bit inaccurate. We don't currently
support dump. Context is only accepted as input and not echoed
to output (which is a separate bug).

Merge tag 'nfsd-6.11' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cel/linux

2024-07-17T19:00:49+00:00

Pull nfsd updates from Chuck Lever:
 "This is a light release containing optimizations, code clean-ups, and
  minor bug fixes.

  This development cycle focused on work outside of upstream kernel
  development:

   - Continuing to build upstream CI for NFSD based on kdevops

   - Continuing to focus on the quality of NFSD in LTS kernels

   - Participation in IETF nfsv4 WG discussions about NFSv4 ACLs,
     directory delegation, and NFSv4.2 COPY offload

  Notable features for v6.11 that do not come through the NFSD tree
  include NFS server-side support for the new pNFS NVMe layout type
  [RFC9561]. Functional testing for pNFS block layouts like this one has
  been introduced to our kdevops CI harness. Work on improving the
  resolution of file attribute time stamps in local filesystems is also
  ongoing tree-wide.

  As always I am grateful to NFSD contributors, reviewers, testers, and
  bug reporters who participated during this cycle"

net/sched: flower: define new tunnel flags

2024-07-15T16:14:38+00:00

Define new TCA_FLOWER_KEY_FLAGS_* flags for use in struct
flow_dissector_key_control, covering the same flags as
currently exposed through TCA_FLOWER_KEY_ENC_FLAGS.

Put the new flags under FLOW_DIS_F_*. The idea is that we can
later, move the existing flags under FLOW_DIS_F_* as well.

The ynl flag names have been taken from the RFC iproute2 patch.
