dst_default_metrics has all of the metrics initialized to 0, so nothing
will be added to the skb in rtnetlink_put_metrics. Avoid the loop if
metrics is from dst_default_metrics.

<title>rtnetlink: always put IFLA_LINK for links with a link-netnsid</title>

<content type='text'>
Currently, nla_put_iflink() doesn't put the IFLA_LINK attribute when
iflink == ifindex.

In some cases, a device can be created in a different netns with the
same ifindex as its parent. That device will not dump its IFLA_LINK
attribute, which can confuse some userspace software that expects it.
For example, if the last ifindex created in init_net and foo are both
8, these commands will trigger the issue:

    ip link add parent type dummy                   # ifindex 9
    ip link add link parent netns foo type macvlan  # ifindex 9 in ns foo

So, in case a device puts the IFLA_LINK_NETNSID attribute in a dump,
always put the IFLA_LINK attribute as well.

Thanks to Dan Winship for analyzing the original OpenShift bug down to
the missing netlink attribute.

v2: change Fixes tag, it's been here forever, as Nicolas Dichtel said

<title>netlink: make validation more configurable for future strictness</title>
<updated>2019-04-27T21:07:21Z</updated>
<author>
<name>Johannes Berg</name>
<email>johannes.berg@intel.com</email>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.shady.money/linux/commit/?id=8cb081746c031fb164089322e2336a0bf5b3070c'/>
<id>urn:sha1:8cb081746c031fb164089322e2336a0bf5b3070c</id>
<content type='text'>
We currently have two levels of strict validation:

 1) liberal (default)
     - undefined (type &gt;= max) &amp; NLA_UNSPEC attributes accepted
     - attribute length &gt;= expected accepted
     - garbage at end of message accepted
 2) strict (opt-in)
     - NLA_UNSPEC attributes accepted
     - attribute length &gt;= expected accepted

Split out parsing strictness into four different options:
 * TRAILING     - check that there's no trailing data after parsing
                  attributes (in message or nested)
 * MAXTYPE      - reject attrs &gt; max known type
 * UNSPEC       - reject attributes with NLA_UNSPEC policy entries
 * STRICT_ATTRS - strictly validate attribute size

The default for future things should be *everything*.
The current *_strict() is a combination of TRAILING and MAXTYPE,
and is renamed to _deprecated_strict().
The current regular parsing has none of this, and is renamed to
*_parse_deprecated().

Additionally it allows us to selectively set one of the new flags
even on old policies. Notably, the UNSPEC flag could be useful in
this case, since it can be arranged (by filling in the policy) to
not be an incompatible userspace ABI change, but would then going
forward prevent forgetting attribute entries. Similar can apply
to the POLICY flag.

We end up with the following renames:
 * nla_parse           -&gt; nla_parse_deprecated
 * nla_parse_strict    -&gt; nla_parse_deprecated_strict
 * nlmsg_parse         -&gt; nlmsg_parse_deprecated
 * nlmsg_parse_strict  -&gt; nlmsg_parse_deprecated_strict
 * nla_parse_nested    -&gt; nla_parse_nested_deprecated
 * nla_validate_nested -&gt; nla_validate_nested_deprecated

Using spatch, of course:

For this patch, don't actually add the strict, non-renamed versions
yet so that it breaks compile if I get it wrong.

Also, while at it, make nla_validate and nla_parse go down to a
common __nla_validate_parse() function to avoid code duplication.

Ultimately, this allows us to have very strict validation for every
new caller of nla_parse()/nlmsg_parse() etc as re-introduced in the
next patch, while existing things will continue to work as is.

In effect then, this adds fully strict validation for any new command.

<title>netlink: make nla_nest_start() add NLA_F_NESTED flag</title>

<content type='text'>
Even if the NLA_F_NESTED flag was introduced more than 11 years ago, most
netlink based interfaces (including recently added ones) are still not
setting it in kernel generated messages. Without the flag, message parsers
not aware of attribute semantics (e.g. wireshark dissector or libmnl's
mnl_nlmsg_fprintf()) cannot recognize nested attributes and won't display
the structure of their contents.

Unfortunately we cannot just add the flag everywhere as there may be
userspace applications which check nlattr::nla_type directly rather than
through a helper masking out the flags. Therefore the patch renames
nla_nest_start() to nla_nest_start_noflag() and introduces nla_nest_start()
as a wrapper adding NLA_F_NESTED. The calls which add NLA_F_NESTED manually
are rewritten to use nla_nest_start().

Except for changes in include/net/netlink.h, the patch was generated using
this semantic patch:

@@ expression E1, E2; @@
-nla_nest_start(E1, E2)
+nla_nest_start_noflag(E1, E2)

@@ expression E1, E2; @@
-nla_nest_start_noflag(E1, E2 | NLA_F_NESTED)

Now that we have a dedicated NDO for getting a port's parent ID, get rid
of SWITCHDEV_ATTR_ID_PORT_PARENT_ID and convert all callers to use the
NDO exclusively. This is a preliminary change to getting rid of
switchdev_ops eventually.
