[PATCH net-next v7 09/17] ethtool: generic handlers for GET requests

From: Michal Kubecek
Date: Wed Oct 09 2019 - 16:59:33 EST


Significant part of GET request processing is common for most request
types but unfortunately it cannot be easily separated from type specific
code as we need to alternate between common actions (parsing common request
header, allocating message and filling netlink/genetlink headers etc.) and
specific actions (querying the device, composing the reply). The processing
also happens in three different situations: "do" request, "dump" request
and notification, each doing things in slightly different way.

The request specific code is implemented in four or five callbacks defined
in an instance of struct get_request_ops:

parse_request() - parse incoming message
prepare_data() - retrieve data from driver or NIC
reply_size() - estimate reply message size
fill_reply() - compose reply message
cleanup_data() - (optional) clean up additional data

Other members of struct get_request_ops describe the data structure holding
information from client request and data used to compose the message. The
standard handlers ethnl_get_doit(), ethnl_get_dumpit(), ethnl_get_start()
and ethnl_get_done() can be then used in genl_ops handler. Notification
handler will be introduced in a later patch.
