Johannes Berg db972e5325 ethtool: strset: allow ETHTOOL_A_STRSET_COUNTS_ONLY attr
The ETHTOOL_A_STRSET_COUNTS_ONLY flag attribute was previously
not allowed to be used, but now due to the policy size reduction
we would access the tb[] array out of bounds since we tried to
check for the attribute despite it not being accepted.

Fix both issues by adding it correctly to the appropriate policy.

Fixes: ff419afa43 ("ethtool: trim policy tables")
Fixes: 71921690f9 ("ethtool: provide string sets with STRSET_GET request")

Jakub Kicinski a0de1cd356 ethtool: specify which header flags are supported per command
Perform header flags validation through the policy.

Only pause command supports ETHTOOL_FLAG_STATS. Create a separate
policy to be able to express that in policy dumps to user space.

Note that even though the core will validate the header policy,
it cannot record multiple layers of attributes and we have to
re-parse header sub-attrs. When doing so we could skip attribute
validation, or use most permissive policy. Opt for the former.

We will no longer return the extack cookie for flags but since
we only added first new flag in this release it's not expected
that any user space had a chance to make use of it.

v2: - remove the re-validation in ethnl_parse_header_dev_get()

Jakub Kicinski 329d9c333e ethtool: link up ethnl_header_policy as a nested policy
To get the most out of parsing by the core, and to allow dumping
full policies we need to specify which policy applies to nested
attrs. For headers it's ethnl_header_policy.

$ sed -i 's@\(ETHTOOL_A_.*HEADER\].*=\) { .type = NLA_NESTED },@\1\n\t\tNLA_POLICY_NESTED(ethnl_header_policy),@' net/ethtool/*

Jakub Kicinski ff419afa43 ethtool: trim policy tables
Since ethtool uses strict attribute validation there's no need
to initialize all attributes in policy tables. 0 is NLA_UNSPEC
which is going to be rejected. Remove the NLA_REJECTs.

Similarly attributes above maxattrs are rejected, so there's
no need to always size the policy tables to ETHTOOL_A_..._MAX.

v2: - new patch

Jakub Kicinski 4f30974feb ethtool: wire up get policies to ops
Wire up policies for get commands in struct nla_policy of the ethtool
family. Make use of genetlink code attr validation and parsing, as well
as allow dumping policies to user space.

For every ETHTOOL_MSG_*_GET:
 - add 'ethnl_' prefix to policy name
 - add extern declaration in net/ethtool/netlink.h
 - wire up the policy & attr in ethtool_genl_ops[].
 - remove .request_policy and .max_attr from ethnl_request_ops.

Obviously core only records the first "layer" of parsed attrs
so we still need to parse the sub-attrs of the nested header
attribute.

v2:
 - merge of patches 1 and 2 from v1
 - remove stray empty lines in ops
 - also remove .max_attr

Jakub Kicinski c7d759eb7b ethtool: add tunnel info interface
Add an interface to report offloaded UDP ports via ethtool netlink.

Now that core takes care of tracking which UDP tunnel ports the NICs
are aware of we can quite easily export this information out to
user space.

The responsibility of writing the netlink dumps is split between
ethtool code and udp_tunnel_nic.c - since udp_tunnel module may
not always be loaded, yet we should always report the capabilities
of the NIC.

$ ethtool --show-tunnels eth0
Tunnel information for eth0:
  UDP port table 0:
    Size: 4
    Types: vxlan
    No entries
  UDP port table 1:
    Size: 4
    Types: geneve, vxlan-gpe
    Entries (1):
        port 1230, vxlan-gpe

v4:
 - back to v2, build fix is now directly in udp_tunnel.h
v3:
 - don't compile ETHTOOL_MSG_TUNNEL_INFO_GET in if CONFIG_INET
   not set.
v2:

 - reorder enums in the uAPI,
 - fix type of ETHTOOL_A_TUNNEL_UDP_TABLE_TYPES to bitset

Michal Kubecek 728480f124 ethtool: default handlers for GET requests
Significant part of GET request processing is common for most request
types but unfortunately it cannot be easily separated from type specific
code as we need to alternate between common actions (parsing common request
header, allocating message and filling netlink/genetlink headers etc.) and
specific actions (querying the device, composing the reply). The processing
also happens in three different situations: "do" request, "dump" request
and notification, each doing things in slightly different way.

The request specific code is implemented in four or five callbacks defined
in an instance of struct get_request_ops:

  parse_request() - parse incoming message
  prepare_data()  - retrieve data from driver or NIC
  reply_size()    - estimate reply message size
  fill_reply()    - compose reply message
  cleanup_data()  - (optional) clean up additional data

Other members of struct get_request_ops describe the data structure holding
information from client request and data used to compose the message. The
default handlers ethnl_default_doit(), ethnl_default_dumpit(),
ethnl_default_start() and ethnl_default_done() can be then used in genl_ops
handler. Notification handler will be introduced in a later patch.
