| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | parameter to nl_cache_resync Here are a few things I fixed and that provoked a python error. I canno't answer to this thread but one solution I found while using the python binding is to iterate over all and filter via python http://list-archives.org/2013/09/09/libnl-lists-infradead-org/missing-feature-for-retrieving-cached- address-objects/f/5031600704 Example: cache = nlrta.AddressCache() cache.resync() for i in cache: print ("item", i ) # then you can filter here Signed-off-by: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch>

* python: remove use of PyArg_ParseTuple() for callback resultArend van Spriel2013-10-072-12/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The message receive callback handler in the netlink api processes the result object from the python callback. It used PyArg_ParseTuple() to get the value, but this does not work as intended (see ref [1]). Instead check the type and convert it accordingly. refs: [1] http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13636711/what-is-the-proper-usage-of-pyarg-parsetuple Reported-by: Teto <mattator@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Arend van Spriel <arend@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch>

* python: remove unnecessary callback type definitionsArend van Spriel2013-09-051-18/+0

* python: allow callback function to be a class methodArend van Spriel2013-09-051-4/+28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The callback functionality only worked for regular Python functions. With this patch it also allows the callback to be a class method (bounded or unbounded) as show in example below. class test_class(object): def my_callback(self, msg, arg): print('handling %s' % str(msg)) s = netlink.core.Socket() testobj = test_class() netlink.capi.py_nl_cb_set(cb, netlink.capi.NL_CB_VALID, netlink.capi.NL_CB_CUSTOM, test_class.my_callback, testobj) netlink.capi.py_nl_cb_err(cb, netlink.capi.NL_CB_CUSTOM, test_class.my_callback, s) Signed-off-by: Arend van Spriel <arend@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch>

* python: rework netlink callback handlingArend van Spriel2013-09-053-27/+221
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The initial commit adding netlink callback handling also introduced memory leak issue. The python callback info was stored in an allocated structure, but that was never freed. Only exposing nl_cb_alloc() as is. nl_cb_get() is removed as it is not very useful to use reference counting mechanism. Python uses that itself internally. To deal properly with Python callback info the function nl_cb_put() and nl_cb_clone() have a custom wrapper taking care of Python reference counting. This commit also adds a Callback python class using the netlink callback functions. Signed-off-by: Arend van Spriel <arend@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch>

* add generic netlink functions to swigArend van Spriel2013-07-181-0/+97
| | | | | | | | | Provide wrapper function for generic netlink library functions. The genlmsg_parse() function is handled similar to nla_parse_nested() so it returns tuple with error code and dictionary of parsed attributes.

* add support functions for attributes and callback handlersArend van Spriel2013-07-181-0/+373
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | added support functions to access the netlink attributes and use custom callback handlers. Most is wrapped as is, but there are a couple of special cases handled. 1) void *nla_data(struct nlattr *); The return value is changed to a Python byte array so it includes the lenght of the data stream. 2) int nla_parse_nested(...); This returns a tuple (err, dict). 'err' is the error code and 'dict' is a dictionary with attribute identifier as key and value represents a struct nlattr object. 3) macro nla_for_each_nested() Provide nla_get_nested() which returns a Python list of struct nlattr objects that is iterable. 4) allocate struct nla_policy array Provide nla_policy_array() function that allocates consecutive space in memory for struct nla_policy array entries. Each entry is put in a Python list so the entry fields can be modified in Python. This array object can be passed to the nla_parse_nested() function.

* Enabled the use of Links as context managers.Antoni S. Puimedon2012-10-041-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With this change you can still set do modifications of Links and then to change to pass the changes to the kernel. But it additionally enables you to interact with this part of libnl-python in a more pythonic way. Instead of: eth0 = links['eth0'] eth0.mtu = 5000 eth0.change() you can do: with links['eth0'] as eth0: eth0.mtu = 5000

| | | | | | | 1. Address, Link and Vlan classes affected with same bug 2. Flags property are not designed as set class. Setting to property will not replace flags, just add flags to set. So, jist document that, and fixed obvious logick.
