I don't understand what you're trying to say. What is "this",
what is "separate" from what?
Did I fall victim of the "if the cover letter is too long nobody
actually reads it" problem? Or am I simply too tired to parse?
iproute2 is welcome to use the protocol descriptions like any other
user space, but I'm intending to codegen kernel code based on the YAML:
quoted
On the kernel side the YAML spec can be used to generate:
- the C uAPI header
- documentation of the protocol as a ReST file
- policy tables for input attribute validation
- operation tables
So how can it not be in the kernel tree?
