[PATCH net-next 3/6] netlink: specs: rt-route: add lwtunnel encap sub-message support
From: Hangbin Liu
Date: Thu Sep 17 2026 - 02:39:40 EST
From: Hangbin Liu <liuhangbin@xxxxxxxxxx>
Define encap-type enum (LWTUNNEL_ENCAP_*) and add encap-data sub-message
keyed by encap-type. Add tunnel attribute sets (mpls, ila, seg6, rpl,
ioam6, xfrm) and IP/IP6 tunnel sets.
Keep some nested option attributes as binary in this patch to simplify
review; they will be converted in follow-up patches.
Also add the Makefile to include uapi headers. Note the lwtunnel.h
is guarded by _UAPI_LWTUNNEL_H_.
