Jakub Kicinski 5ff96aec72 Merge branch 'nexthop-more-fine-grained-policies-for-netlink-message-validation'
Petr Machata says:

====================
nexthop: More fine-grained policies for netlink message validation

There is currently one policy that covers all attributes for next hop
object management. Actual validation is then done in code, which makes it
unobvious which attributes are acceptable when, and indeed that everything
is rejected as necessary.

In this series, split rtm_nh_policy to several policies that cover various
aspects of the next hop object configuration, and instead of open-coding
the validation, defer to nlmsg_parse(). This should make extending the next
hop code simpler as well, which will be relevant in near future for
resilient hashing implementation.

This was tested by running tools/testing/selftests/net/fib_nexthops.sh.
Additionally iproute2 was tweaked to issue "nexthop list id" as an
RTM_GETNEXTHOP dump request, instead of a straight get to test that
unexpected attributes are indeed rejected.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
