Linux kernel source tree
7aae650535
When parsing throws an exception one often has to figure out which
attribute couldn't be parsed from first principles. For families
with large message parsing trees like rtnetlink guessing the
attribute can be hard.
Print a bit of information as the exception travels out, e.g.:
# when dumping rt links
Error decoding 'flags' from 'linkinfo-ip6tnl-attrs'
Error decoding 'data' from 'linkinfo-attrs'
Error decoding 'linkinfo' from 'link-attrs'
Traceback (most recent call last):

reply = ynl.dump(args.dump, attrs)

File "/home/kicinski/linux/tools/net/ynl/lib/ynl.py", line 1045, in _ops
rsp_msg = self._decode(decoded.raw_attrs, op.attr_set.name)
File "/home/kicinski/linux/tools/net/ynl/lib/ynl.py", line 738, in _decode
subdict = self._decode(NlAttrs(attr.raw), attr_spec['nested-attributes'], search_attrs)
File "/home/kicinski/linux/tools/net/ynl/lib/ynl.py", line 763, in _decode
decoded = self._decode_sub_msg(attr, attr_spec, search_attrs)
File "/home/kicinski/linux/tools/net/ynl/lib/ynl.py", line 714, in _decode_sub_msg
subdict = self._decode(NlAttrs(attr.raw, offset), msg_format.attr_set)
File "/home/kicinski/linux/tools/net/ynl/lib/ynl.py", line 749, in _decode
decoded = attr.as_scalar(attr_spec['type'], attr_spec.byte_order)
File "/home/kicinski/linux/tools/net/ynl/lib/ynl.py", line 147, in as_scalar
return format.unpack(self.raw)[0]
struct.error: unpack requires a buffer of 2 bytes
The Traceback is what we would previously see, the "Error..."
messages are new. We print a message per level (in the stack
order). Printing single combined message gets tricky quickly
given sub-messages etc.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
