202 NLA_VALIDATE_RANGE_WARN_TOO_LONG,
206 NLA_VALIDATE_RANGE_PTR,
207 NLA_VALIDATE_FUNCTION,
211 * struct nla_policy - attribute validation policy
212 * @type: Type of attribute or NLA_UNSPEC
213 * @validation_type: type of attribute validation done in addition to
214 * type-specific validation (e.g. range, function call), see
215 * &enum nla_policy_validation
216 * @len: Type specific length of payload
218 * Policies are defined as arrays of this struct, the array must be
219 * accessible by attribute type up to the highest identifier to be expected.
221 * Meaning of `len' field:
222 * NLA_STRING Maximum length of string
223 * NLA_NUL_STRING Maximum length of string (excluding NUL)
225 * NLA_BINARY Maximum length of attribute payload
226 * (but see also below with the validation type)
228 * NLA_NESTED_ARRAY Length verification is done by checking len of
229 * nested header (or empty); len field is used if
230 * nested_policy is also used, for the max attr
231 * number in the nested policy.
236 * NLA_BE16, NLA_BE32,
237 * NLA_MSECS Leaving the length field zero will verify the
238 * given type fits, using it verifies minimum length
239 * just like "All other"
240 * NLA_BITFIELD32 Unused
242 * All other Minimum length of attribute payload
244 * Meaning of validation union:
245 * NLA_BITFIELD32 This is a 32-bit bitmap/bitselector attribute and
246 * `bitfield32_valid' is the u32 value of valid flags
247 * NLA_REJECT This attribute is always rejected and `reject_message'
248 * may point to a string to report as the error instead
249 * of the generic one in extended ACK.
250 * NLA_NESTED `nested_policy' to a nested policy to validate, must
251 * also set `len' to the max attribute number. Use the
252 * provided NLA_POLICY_NESTED() macro.
253 * Note that nla_parse() will validate, but of course not
254 * parse, the nested sub-policies.
255 * NLA_NESTED_ARRAY `nested_policy' points to a nested policy to validate,
256 * must also set `len' to the max attribute number. Use
257 * the provided NLA_POLICY_NESTED_ARRAY() macro.
258 * The difference to NLA_NESTED is the structure:
259 * NLA_NESTED has the nested attributes directly inside
260 * while an array has the nested attributes at another
261 * level down and the attribute types directly in the
262 * nesting don't matter.
272 * NLA_S64 The `min' and `max' fields are used depending on the
273 * validation_type field, if that is min/max/range then
274 * the min, max or both are used (respectively) to check
275 * the value of the integer attribute.
276 * Note that in the interest of code simplicity and
277 * struct size both limits are s16, so you cannot
278 * enforce a range that doesn't fall within the range
279 * of s16 - do that as usual in the code instead.
280 * Use the NLA_POLICY_MIN(), NLA_POLICY_MAX() and
281 * NLA_POLICY_RANGE() macros.
285 * NLA_U64 If the validation_type field instead is set to
286 * NLA_VALIDATE_RANGE_PTR, `range' must be a pointer
287 * to a struct netlink_range_validation that indicates
288 * the min/max values.
289 * Use NLA_POLICY_FULL_RANGE().
293 * NLA_S64 If the validation_type field instead is set to
294 * NLA_VALIDATE_RANGE_PTR, `range_signed' must be a
295 * pointer to a struct netlink_range_validation_signed
296 * that indicates the min/max values.
297 * Use NLA_POLICY_FULL_RANGE_SIGNED().
299 * NLA_BINARY If the validation type is like the ones for integers
300 * above, then the min/max length (not value like for
301 * integers) of the attribute is enforced.
303 * All other Unused - but note that it's a union
305 * Meaning of `validate' field, use via NLA_POLICY_VALIDATE_FN:
306 * NLA_BINARY Validation function called for the attribute.
307 * All other Unused - but note that it's a union

329 * only, and specifies special data about the policy, namely it
330 * specifies the "boundary type" where strict length validation
331 * starts for any attribute types >= this value, also, strict
332 * nesting validation starts here.
334 * Additionally, it means that NLA_UNSPEC is actually NLA_REJECT
335 * for any types >= this, so need to use NLA_POLICY_MIN_LEN() to
336 * get the previous pure { .len = xyz } behaviour. The advantage
337 * of this is that types not specified in the policy will be
340 * For completely new families it should be set to 1 so that the
341 * validation is enforced for all attributes. For existing ones
342 * it should be set at least when new attributes are added to

344 * was added to enforce strict validation from thereon.
