selftests: net: move netlink-dumps back to progs

2025-09-08T19:57:05Z

Commit 9bb88c659673 ("selftests: net: test extacks in netlink dumps") moved netlink-dumps from TEST_GEN_PROGS to YNL_GEN_FILES. But _FILES are not for tests, rather for utilities / helpers. Create YNL_GEN_PROGS and include netlink-dumps there. This makes netlink-dumps part of executed tests, again.

selftests: net: suppress ReST file generation when building selftests

2025-02-06T01:49:40Z

tools: ynl: move python code to separate sub-directory

2025-01-09T20:53:27Z

Move python code to a separate directory so it can be packaged as a python module. Updates existing references in selftests and docs. Also rename ynl-gen-[c|rst] to ynl_gen_[c|rst], avoid dashes as these prevent easy imports for entrypoints.

selftests: net: move EXTRA_CLEAN of libynl.a into ynl.mk

2024-10-15T00:58:37Z

Commit 1fd9e4f25782 ("selftests: make kselftest-clean remove libynl outputs") added EXTRA_CLEAN of YNL generated files to ynl.mk. We already had a EXTRA_CLEAN in the file including the snippet. Consolidate them. Acked-by: Stanislav Fomichev Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20241011230311.2529760-2-kuba@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski

selftests: net: rebuild YNL if dependencies changed

2024-10-15T00:58:36Z

Try to rebuild YNL if either user added a new family or the specs of the families have changed. Stanislav's ncdevmem cause a false positive build failure in NIPA because libynl.a isn't rebuilt after ethtool is added to YNL_GENS. Note that sha1sum is already used in other parts of the build system.
