tools: ynl: introduce option to process unknown attributes or types
In case the kernel sends message back containing attribute not defined in family spec, following exception is raised to the user: $ sudo ./tools/net/ynl/cli.py --spec Documentation/netlink/specs/devlink.yaml --do trap-get --json '{"bus-name": "netdevsim", "dev-name": "netdevsim1", "trap-name": "source_mac_is_multicast"}' Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/jiri/work/linux/tools/net/ynl/lib/ynl.py", line 521, in _decode attr_spec = attr_space.attrs_by_val[attr.type] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^^^^^^^^^^^ KeyError: 132 During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/jiri/work/linux/./tools/net/ynl/cli.py", line 61, in <module> main() File "/home/jiri/work/linux/./tools/net/ynl/cli.py", line 49, in main reply = ynl.do(args.do, attrs, args.flags) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "/home/jiri/work/linux/tools/net/ynl/lib/ynl.py", line 731, in do return self._op(method, vals, flags) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "/home/jiri/work/linux/tools/net/ynl/lib/ynl.py", line 719, in _op rsp_msg = self._decode(decoded.raw_attrs, op.attr_set.name) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "/home/jiri/work/linux/tools/net/ynl/lib/ynl.py", line 525, in _decode raise Exception(f"Space '{space}' has no attribute with value '{attr.type}'") Exception: Space 'devlink' has no attribute with value '132' Introduce a command line option "process-unknown" and pass it down to YnlFamily class constructor to allow user to process unknown attributes and types and print them as binaries. $ sudo ./tools/net/ynl/cli.py --spec Documentation/netlink/specs/devlink.yaml --do trap-get --json '{"bus-name": "netdevsim", "dev-name": "netdevsim1", "trap-name": "source_mac_is_multicast"}' --process-unknown {'UnknownAttr(129)': {'UnknownAttr(0)': b'\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00', 'UnknownAttr(1)': b'\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00', 'UnknownAttr(2)': b'\x0e\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00'}, 'UnknownAttr(132)': b'\x00', 'UnknownAttr(133)': b'', 'UnknownAttr(134)': {'UnknownAttr(0)': b''}, 'bus-name': 'netdevsim', 'dev-name': 'netdevsim1', 'trap-action': 'drop', 'trap-group-name': 'l2_drops', 'trap-name': 'source_mac_is_multicast'} Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko <jiri@nvidia.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231027092525.956172-1-jiri@resnulli.us Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
