This patch adds a near[1] complete YNL specification for WireGuard, documenting the protocol in a machine-readable format, rather than comments in wireguard.h, and eases usage from C and non-C programming languages alike. The generated C library will be featured in a later patch, so in this patch I will use the in-kernel python client for examples. This makes the documentation in the UAPI header redundant, it is therefore removed. The in-line documentation in the spec is based on the existing comment in wireguard.h, and once released it will be available in the kernel documentation at: https://docs.kernel.org/netlink/specs/wireguard.html (until then run: make htmldocs) Generate wireguard.rst from this spec: $ make -C tools/net/ynl/generated/ wireguard.rst Query wireguard interface through pyynl: $ sudo ./tools/net/ynl/pyynl/cli.py --family wireguard \ --dump get-device \ --json '{"ifindex":3}' [{'fwmark': 0, 'ifindex': 3, 'ifname': 'wg-test', 'listen-port': 54318, 'peers': [{0: {'allowedips': [{0: {'cidr-mask': 0, 'family': 2, 'ipaddr': '0.0.0.0'}}, {0: {'cidr-mask': 0, 'family': 10, 'ipaddr': '::'}}], 'endpoint': b'[...]', 'last-handshake-time': {'nsec': 42, 'sec': 42}, 'persistent-keepalive-interval': 42, 'preshared-key': '[...]', 'protocol-version': 1, 'public-key': '[...]', 'rx-bytes': 42, 'tx-bytes': 42}}], 'private-key': '[...]', 'public-key': '[...]'}] Add another allowed IP prefix: $ sudo ./tools/net/ynl/pyynl/cli.py --family wireguard \ --do set-device --json '{"ifindex":3,"peers":[ {"public-key":"6a df b1 83 a4 ..","allowedips":[ {"cidr-mask":0,"family":10,"ipaddr":"::"}]}]}' [1] As can be seen above, the "endpoint" is only dumped as binary data, as it can't be fully described in YNL. It's either a struct sockaddr_in or struct sockaddr_in6 depending on the attribute length. Signed-off-by: Asbjørn Sloth Tønnesen <ast@fiberby.net> Signed-off-by: Jason A.

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 reStructuredText 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.
