[PATCH net-next v3 09/11] wireguard: netlink: convert to split ops

From: Asbjørn Sloth Tønnesen <hidden>
Date: 2025-11-05 18:33:04
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: networking drivers, the rest, wireguard secure network tunnel · Maintainers: Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds, Jason A. Donenfeld

This patch converts wireguard from using legacy struct genl_ops
to struct genl_split_ops, by applying the same transformation
as genl_cmd_full_to_split() would otherwise do at runtime.

WGDEVICE_A_MAX is swapped for WGDEVICE_A_PEERS, while they are
currently equivalent, then .maxattr should be the maximum attribute
that a given command supports, which might not be WGDEVICE_A_MAX.

This is an incremental step towards adopting netlink policy code
generated by ynl-gen, ensuring that the code and spec is aligned.

This is a trivial patch with no behavioural changes intended.
