Extend the devcom framework to support namespace-aware components.
The existing devcom matching logic was based solely on numeric keys,
limiting its use to the global (init_net) scope or requiring clients to
ignore namespaces altogether, both of which are incorrect in
multi-namespace environments.
This patch introduces namespace support by allowing devcom clients to
provide a namespace match attribute. The devcom pairing mechanism is
updated to compare the namespace, enabling proper isolation and
interaction of components across different net namespaces.
With this change, components that require namespace aware pairing, such
as SD groups or LAG, can now work correctly in multi-namespace
scenarios. In particular, this opens the way to support hardware LAG
within a net namespace.

If an error occurs during mv88e6xxx_setup() and the PTP clock has been
registered, the clock will not be unregistered as mv88e6xxx_ptp_free()
will not be called. mv88e6xxx_hwtstamp_free() also is not called.
As mv88e6xxx_ptp_free() can cope with being called without a successful
call to mv88e6xxx_ptp_setup(), and mv88e6xxx_hwtstamp_free() is empty,
add both these *_free() calls to the error cleanup paths in
mv88e6xxx_setup().
Moreover, mv88e6xxx_teardown() should teardown setup done in
mv88e6xxx_setup() - see dsa_switch_setup(). However, instead *_free()
are called from mv88e6xxx_remove() function that is only called when a
device is unbound, which omits cleanup should a failure occur later in
dsa_switch_setup(). Move the *_free() calls from mv88e6xxx_remove() to
mv88e6xxx_teardown().
Note that mv88e6xxx_ptp_setup() must be called holding the reg_lock,
but mv88e6xxx_ptp_free() must never be. This is especially true after
commit "ptp: rework ptp_clock_unregister() to disable events". This
patch does not change this, but adds a comment to that effect.

Add support for hardware timestamps in (e.g.) the PHY by calling
skb_tx_timestamp() as close as reasonably possible to the point that
the hardware is instructed to send the queued packets.
As this also introduces software timestamping support, report those

The attribute WGALLOWEDIP_A_IPADDR can contain either an IPv4
or an IPv6 address depending on WGALLOWEDIP_A_FAMILY, however
in practice it is enough to look at the attribute length.
This patch implements an ipv4-or-v6 display hint, that can
deal with this kind of attribute.
It only implements this display hint for genetlink-legacy, it
can be added to other protocol variants if needed, but we don't
want to encourage it's use.

Since TypeArrayNest can now be used with many other sub-types
than nest, then rename it to TypeIndexedArray, to reduce
confusion.
This patch continues the rename, that was started in commit
aa6485d813 ("ynl: rename array-nest to indexed-array"),
when the YNL type was renamed.
In order to get rid of all references to the old naming,
within ynl, then renaming some variables in _multi_parse().

In nested arrays don't require that the intermediate attribute
type should be a valid attribute type, it might just be zero
or an incrementing index, it is often not even used.
See include/net/netlink.h about NLA_NESTED_ARRAY:
> The difference to NLA_NESTED is the structure:
> NLA_NESTED has the nested attributes directly inside
> while an array has the nested attributes at another
> level down and the attribute types directly in the
> nesting don't matter.
Example based on include/uapi/linux/wireguard.h:
> WGDEVICE_A_PEERS: NLA_NESTED
> 0: NLA_NESTED
> WGPEER_A_PUBLIC_KEY: NLA_EXACT_LEN, len WG_KEY_LEN
> [..]
> 0: NLA_NESTED
> ...
> ...
Previous the check required that the nested type was valid
in the parent attribute set, which in this case resolves to
WGDEVICE_A_UNSPEC, which is YNL_PT_REJECT, and it took the
early exit and returned YNL_PARSE_CB_ERROR.
This patch renames the old nl_attr_validate() to
__nl_attr_validate(), and creates a new inline function
nl_attr_validate() to mimic the old one.
The new __nl_attr_validate() takes the attribute type as an
argument, so we can use it to validate attributes of a
nested attribute, in the context of the parents attribute
type, which in the above case is generated as:
[WGDEVICE_A_PEERS] = {
.name = "peers",
.type = YNL_PT_NEST,
.nest = &wireguard_wgpeer_nest,
},
__nl_attr_validate() only checks if the attribute length
is plausible for a given attribute type, so the .nest in
the above example is not used.
As the new inline function needs to be defined after
ynl_attr_type(), then the definitions are moved down,
so we avoid a forward declaration of ynl_attr_type().
Some other examples are NL80211_BAND_ATTR_FREQS (nest) and
NL80211_ATTR_SUPPORTED_COMMANDS (u32) both in nl80211-user.c

Refactor the generation of local variables needed when building
requests, by moving the logic from put_req_nested() into a new
helper put_local_vars(), and use the helper before .attr_put() is
called, thus generating the local variables assumed by .attr_put().
Previously only put_req_nested() generated the variables assumed
by .attr_put(), print_req() only generated the count iterator `i`,
and print_dump() neither generated `i` nor `array`.

With indexed-array types such as "ops" from
Documentation/netlink/specs/nlctrl.yaml, the generator creates code
such as:
int nlctrl_getfamily_rsp_parse(const struct nlmsghdr *nlh,
struct ynl_parse_arg *yarg)
{
struct nlctrl_getfamily_rsp *dst;
const struct nlattr *attr_ops;
const struct nlattr *attr;
struct ynl_parse_arg parg;
unsigned int n_ops = 0;
int i;
...
ynl_attr_for_each(attr, nlh, yarg->ys->family->hdr_len) {
unsigned int type = ynl_attr_type(attr);
if (type == CTRL_ATTR_FAMILY_ID) {
...
} else if (type == CTRL_ATTR_OPS) {
const struct nlattr *attr2;
attr_ops = attr;
ynl_attr_for_each_nested(attr2, attr) {
if (ynl_attr_validate(yarg, attr2))
return YNL_PARSE_CB_ERROR;
n_ops++;
}
} else {
...
}
}
if (n_ops) {
dst->ops = calloc(n_ops, sizeof(*dst->ops));
dst->_count.ops = n_ops;
i = 0;
parg.rsp_policy = &nlctrl_op_attrs_nest;
ynl_attr_for_each_nested(attr, attr_ops) {
...
}
}
return YNL_PARSE_CB_OK;
}
It is clear that due to the sequential nature of code execution, when
n_ops (initially zero) is incremented, attr_ops is also assigned from
the value of "attr" (the current iterator).
But some compilers, like gcc version 12.2.0 (Debian 12.2.0-14+deb12u1)
as distributed by Debian Bookworm, seem to be not sophisticated enough
to see this, and fail to compile (warnings treated as errors):
In file included from ../lib/ynl.h:10,

It is a pity that we have to do this, but I see no other way than to
suppress the false positive by appeasing the compiler and initializing
the "*attr_{aspec.c_name}" variable with a bogus value (NULL). This will
never be used - at runtime it will always be overwritten when
"n_{struct[anest].c_name}" is non-zero.

In YAML, it is allowed to declare a scalar strings at the next lines
without explicitly declaring them as a block. Yet, they looks weird, and
can cause issues when ':' or '#' are present.
The modified lines didn't have issues with the special characters, but
it seems better to explicitly declare such blocks as scalar strings to
encourage people to "properly" declare future scalar strings.
The right angle bracket is used with a minus sign to indicate that the
folded style should be used without adding extra newlines. By doing
that, the output is not changed compared to what was done before this
patch.

By default, strings defined in YAML at the next line are folded:
newlines are replaced by spaces. Here, the newlines are there for a
reason, and should be kept in the output.
This can be fixed by adding the '|' symbol to use the "literal" style.
This issue was introduced by commit 387724cbf4 ("Documentation:
netlink: add a YAML spec for team"), but visible in the doc only since
the parent commit.
To avoid warnings when generating the HTML output, and to look better,
the code layout is now in a dedicated code block, which requires '::'
and a new blank line. Just for a question of uniformity, a new blank
line is also added after the code block.
