Subject: [PATCH net 1/2] genetlink: report the real command id for dump-only ops in policy dumps
Date: Fri, 18 Sep 2026 15:29:48 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260918222949.4190284-1-kuba@kernel.org> (raw)

The op-to-policy map a CTRL_CMD_GETPOLICY dump returns is the only way
for userspace to find out which policy index belongs to which command.
ctrl_dumppolicy_put_op() tags the nest with doit->cmd, but an op which
only has a dumpit has no doit and every path which fills the split ops
in zeroes it out, so those entries all claim to be command 0.  nlctrl's
own CTRL_CMD_GETPOLICY and NETDEV_CMD_QSTATS_GET are both in that group:

  [{'family-id': 16, 'op-policy': {'do': 0, 'dump': 0, 'op-id': 3}},
   {'family-id': 16, 'op-policy': {'dump': 1, 'op-id': 0}},

ctrl_fill_info() gets this right - it uses the iterator's cmd for
CTRL_ATTR_OP_ID - so the two introspection interfaces of the same family
contradict each other today.

Pass the command in rather than reconstructing it from
doit->cmd | dumpit->cmd inside the helper, both callers already have it.

Fixes: 26588edbef60 ("genetlink: support split policies in ctrl_dumppolicy_put_op()")
