172 NLA_S16,
173 NLA_S32,
174 NLA_S64,
175 __NLA_TYPE_MAX,
178 #define NLA_TYPE_MAX (__NLA_TYPE_MAX - 1)
181 * struct nla_policy - attribute validation policy
182 * @type: Type of attribute or NLA_UNSPEC
183 * @len: Type specific length of payload
185 * Policies are defined as arrays of this struct, the array must be
186 * accessible by attribute type up to the highest identifier to be expected.
188 * Meaning of `len' field:
189 * NLA_STRING Maximum length of string
190 * NLA_NUL_STRING Maximum length of string (excluding NUL)
191 * NLA_FLAG Unused
192 * NLA_BINARY Maximum length of attribute payload
193 * NLA_NESTED Don't use `len' field -- length verification is
194 * done by checking len of nested header (or empty)
195 * NLA_NESTED_COMPAT Minimum length of structure payload
196 * NLA_U8, NLA_U16,
197 * NLA_U32, NLA_U64,
198 * NLA_S8, NLA_S16,
199 * NLA_S32, NLA_S64,
200 * NLA_MSECS Leaving the length field zero will verify the
201 * given type fits, using it verifies minimum length
202 * just like "All other"
203 * All other Minimum length of attribute payload
