2023-03-07ynl: re-license uniformly under GPL-2.0 OR BSD-3-ClauseJakub Kicinski
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.

2023-01-31tools: net: use python3 explicitlyJakub Kicinski
The scripts require Python 3 and some distros are dropping Python 2 support. Reported-by: Stanislav Fomichev <sdf@google.com> Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
2023-01-31tools: ynl: load jsonschema on demandJakub Kicinski
The CLI script tries to validate jsonschema by default. It's seems better to validate too many times than too few. However, when copying the scripts to random servers having to install jsonschema is tedious. Load jsonschema via importlib, and let the user opt out. Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
2023-01-31tools: ynl: use operation names from spec on the CLIJakub Kicinski
When I wrote the first version of the Python code I was quite excited that we can generate class methods directly from the spec. Unfortunately we need to use valid identifiers for method names (specifically no dashes are allowed). Don't reuse those names on the CLI, it's much more natural to use the operation names exactly as listed in the spec. Instead of: ./cli --do rings_get use: ./cli --do rings-get Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
2023-01-31tools: ynl: move the cli and netlink code aroundJakub Kicinski
Move the CLI code out of samples/ and the library part of it into tools/net/ynl/lib/. This way we can start sharing some code with the code gen. Initially I thought that code gen is too C-specific to share anything but basic stuff like calculating values for enums can easily be shared. Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
