2019-12-27ethtool: add LINKMODES_NTF notificationMichal Kubecek
Send ETHTOOL_MSG_LINKMODES_NTF notification message whenever device link settings or advertised modes are modified using ETHTOOL_MSG_LINKMODES_SET netlink message or ETHTOOL_SLINKSETTINGS or ETHTOOL_SSET ioctl commands. The notification message has the same format as reply to LINKMODES_GET request. ETHTOOL_MSG_LINKMODES_SET netlink request only triggers the notification if there is a change but the ioctl command handlers do not check if there is an actual change and trigger the notification whenever the commands are executed. As all work is done by ethnl_default_notify() handler and callback functions introduced to handle LINKMODES_GET requests, all that remains is adding entries for ETHTOOL_MSG_LINKMODES_NTF into ethnl_notify_handlers and ethnl_default_notify_ops lookup tables and calls to ethtool_notify() where needed.

2019-12-27ethtool: set link modes related data with LINKMODES_SET requestMichal Kubecek
Implement LINKMODES_SET netlink request to set advertised linkmodes and related attributes as ETHTOOL_SLINKSETTINGS and ETHTOOL_SSET commands do. The request allows setting autonegotiation flag, speed, duplex and advertised link modes.

2019-12-27ethtool: provide link mode information with LINKMODES_GET requestMichal Kubecek
Implement LINKMODES_GET netlink request to get link modes related information provided by ETHTOOL_GLINKSETTINGS and ETHTOOL_GSET ioctl commands. This request provides supported, advertised and peer advertised link modes, autonegotiation flag, speed and duplex. LINKMODES_GET request can be used with NLM_F_DUMP (without device identification) to request the information for all devices in current network namespace providing the data.

Send ETHTOOL_MSG_LINKINFO_NTF notification message whenever device link settings are modified using ETHTOOL_MSG_LINKINFO_SET netlink message or ETHTOOL_SLINKSETTINGS or ETHTOOL_SSET ioctl commands. The notification message has the same format as reply to LINKINFO_GET request. ETHTOOL_MSG_LINKINFO_SET netlink request only triggers the notification if there is a change but the ioctl command handlers do not check if there is an actual change and trigger the notification whenever the commands are executed.

2019-12-27ethtool: add default notification handlerMichal Kubecek
The ethtool netlink notifications have the same format as related GET replies so that if generic GET handling framework is used to process GET requests, its callbacks and instance of struct get_request_ops can be also used to compose corresponding notification message. Provide function ethnl_std_notify() to be used as notification handler in ethnl_notify_handlers table.

2019-12-27ethtool: set link settings with LINKINFO_SET requestMichal Kubecek
Implement LINKINFO_SET netlink request to set link settings queried by LINKINFO_GET message. Only physical port, phy MDIO address and MDI(-X) control can be set, attempt to modify MDI(-X) status and transceiver is rejected.

2019-12-27ethtool: provide link settings with LINKINFO_GET requestMichal Kubecek
Implement LINKINFO_GET netlink request to get basic link settings provided by ETHTOOL_GLINKSETTINGS and ETHTOOL_GSET ioctl commands. This request provides settings not directly related to autonegotiation and link mode selection: physical port, phy MDIO address, MDI(-X) status, MDI(-X) control and transceiver. LINKINFO_GET request can be used with NLM_F_DUMP (without device identification) to request the information for all devices in current network namespace providing the data.

2019-12-27ethtool: provide string sets with STRSET_GET requestMichal Kubecek
Requests a contents of one or more string sets, i.e. indexed arrays of strings; this information is provided by ETHTOOL_GSSET_INFO and ETHTOOL_GSTRINGS commands of ioctl interface. Unlike ioctl interface, all information can be retrieved with one request and mulitple string sets can be requested at once. There are three types of requests: - no NLM_F_DUMP, no device: get "global" stringsets - no NLM_F_DUMP, with device: get string sets related to the device - NLM_F_DUMP, no device: get device related string sets for all devices Client can request either all string sets of given type (global or device related) or only specific sets. With ETHTOOL_A_STRSET_COUNTS flag set, only set sizes (numbers of strings) are returned.

2019-12-27ethtool: default handlers for GET requestsMichal Kubecek
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. Signed-off-by: Michal Kubecek <mkubecek@suse.cz> Reviewed-by: Florian Fainelli <f.fainelli@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2019-12-27ethtool: support for netlink notificationsMichal Kubecek
Add infrastructure for ethtool netlink notifications. There is only one multicast group "monitor" which is used to notify userspace about changes and actions performed. Notification messages (types using suffix _NTF) share the format with replies to GET requests. Notifications are supposed to be broadcasted on every configuration change, whether it is done using the netlink interface or ioctl one. Netlink SET requests only trigger a notification if some data is actually changed. To trigger an ethtool notification, both ethtool netlink and external code use ethtool_notify() helper. This helper requires RTNL to be held and may sleep. Handlers sending messages for specific notification message types are registered in ethnl_notify_handlers array. As notifications can be triggered from other code, ethnl_ok flag is used to prevent an attempt to send notification before genetlink family is registered.
