I don't understand what you're trying to say. What is "this", what is "separate" from what? Did I fall victim of the "if the cover letter is too long nobody actually reads it" problem? Or am I simply too tired to parse? iproute2 is welcome to use the protocol descriptions like any other user space, but I'm intending to codegen kernel code based on the YAML: >> On the kernel side the YAML spec can be used to generate: >> - the C uAPI header >> - documentation of the protocol as a ReST file >> - policy tables for input attribute validation >> - operation tables So how can it not be in the kernel tree?
