I am told 3+ people are trying to turn the yaml netlink spec into
rust. It would be good to co-ordinate and leverage their work for
libreqos.io but I don't know who or where they are doing that work.

Hi!
I think the Netlink proto specs are far along enough to merge.
Filling in all attribute types and quirks will be an ongoing
effort but we have enough to cover FOU so it's somewhat complete.
I fully intend to continue polishing the code but at the same
time I'd like to start helping others base their work on the
specs (e.g. DPLL) and need to start working on some new families
myself.
That's the progress / motivation for merging. The RFC [1] has more
of a high level blurb, plus I created a lot of documentation, I'm
not going to repeat it here. There was also the talk at LPC [2].

v2:
- update docs
- change comment format in uAPI from // to /* */
- rename fou.c to make linker happy
Jakub Kicinski (7):
docs: add more netlink docs (incl. spec docs)
netlink: add schemas for YAML specs
net: add basic C code generators for Netlink
netlink: add a proto specification for FOU
net: fou: regenerate the uAPI from the spec
net: fou: rename the source for linking
net: fou: use policy and operation tables generated from the spec
