This commit introduces basic netlink support with family registration/unregistration functionalities and stub pre/post-doit. More importantly it introduces the YAML uAPI description along with its auto-generated files: - include/uapi/linux/ovpn.h - drivers/net/ovpn/netlink-gen.c - drivers/net/ovpn/netlink-gen.h Cc: donald.hunter@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli <antonio@openvpn.net> --- Documentation/netlink/specs/ovpn.yaml | 328 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ MAINTAINERS | 1 + drivers/net/ovpn/Makefile | 2 + drivers/net/ovpn/main.c | 14 ++ drivers/net/ovpn/netlink-gen.c | 206 ++++++++++++++++ drivers/net/ovpn/netlink-gen.h | 41 ++++ drivers/net/ovpn/netlink.c | 153 ++++++++++++ drivers/net/ovpn/netlink.h | 15 ++ drivers/net/ovpn/ovpnstruct.h | 21 ++ include/uapi/linux/ovpn.h | 108 +++++++++ 10 files changed, 889 insertions(+) create mode 100644 Documentation/netlink/specs/ovpn.yaml create mode 100644 drivers/net/ovpn/netlink-gen.c create mode 100644 drivers/net/ovpn/netlink-gen.h create mode 100644 drivers/net/ovpn/netlink.c create mode 100644 drivers/net/ovpn/netlink.h create mode 100644 drivers/net/ovpn/ovpnstruct.h create mode 100644 include/uapi/linux/ovpn.hdiff --git a/Documentation/netlink/specs/ovpn.yaml b/Documentation/netlink/specs/ovpn.yaml new file mode 100644 index 000000000000..456ac3747d27 --- /dev/null +++ b/Documentation/netlink/specs/ovpn.yaml@@ -0,0 +1,328 @@ +# SPDX-License-Identifier: ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) +# +# Author: Antonio Quartulli <antonio@openvpn.net> +# +# Copyright (c) 2024, OpenVPN Inc. +# + +name: ovpn + +protocol: genetlink + +doc: Netlink protocol to control OpenVPN network devices + +definitions: + - + type: const + name: nonce-tail-size + value: 8 + - + type: enum + name: cipher-alg + value-start: 0 + entries: [ none, aes-gcm, chacha20_poly1305 ] + - + type: enum + name: del-peer_reason + value-start: 0 + entries: [ teardown, userspace, expired, transport-error, transport_disconnect ] + - + type: enum + name: key-slot + value-start: 0 + entries: [ primary, secondary ] + - + type: enum + name: mode + value-start: 0 + entries: [ p2p, mp ] + +attribute-sets: + - + name: peer + attributes: + - + name: id + type: u32 + doc: | + The unique Id of the peer.

As Donald already mentioned, the typical approach to manage objects via Netlink is to provide an interface with four commands: New, Set, Get, Del. Here, peer created implicitely using the "set" comand. Out of curiosity, what the reason to create peers in the such way? Is the reason to create keys also implicitly same?
