The ethtool netlink code uses common framework for passing arbitrary
length bit sets to allow future extensions. A bitset can be a list (only
one bitmap) or can consist of value and mask pair (used e.g. when client
want to modify only some bits). A bitset can use one of two formats:
verbose (bit by bit) or compact.

Verbose format consists of bitset size (number of bits), list flag and
an array of bit nests, telling which bits are part of the list or which
bits are in the mask and which of them are to be set. In requests, bits
can be identified by index (position) or by name. In replies, kernel
provides both index and name. Verbose format is suitable for "one shot"
applications like standard ethtool command as it avoids the need to
either keep bit names (e.g. link modes) in sync with kernel or having to
add an extra roundtrip for string set request (e.g. for private flags).

Compact format uses one (list) or two (value/mask) arrays of 32-bit
words to store the bitmap(s). It is more suitable for long running
applications (ethtool in monitor mode or network management daemons)
which can retrieve the names once and then pass only compact bitmaps to
save space.

Userspace requests can use either format; ETHTOOL_FLAG_COMPACT_BITSETS
flag in request header tells kernel which format to use in reply.
Notifications always use compact format.

As some code uses arrays of unsigned long for internal representation and
some arrays of u32 (or even a single u32), two sets of parse/compose
helpers are introduced. To avoid code duplication, helpers for unsigned
long arrays are implemented as wrappers around helpers for u32 arrays.
There are two reasons for this choice: (1) u32 arrays are more frequent in
ethtool code and (2) unsigned long array can be always interpreted as an
u32 array on little endian 64-bit and all 32-bit architectures while we
would need special handling for odd number of u32 words in the opposite
direction.

+Bit sets
+========
+
+For short bitmaps of (reasonably) fixed length, standard ``NLA_BITFIELD32``
+type is used. For arbitrary length bitmaps, ethtool netlink uses a nested
+attribute with contents of one of two forms: compact (two binary bitmaps
+representing bit values and mask of affected bits) and bit-by-bit (list of
+bits identified by either index or name).
+
+A bitset can represent either a value/mask pair (``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_NOMASK``
+not set) or a single bitmap (``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_NOMASK`` set). In requests
+modifying a bitmap, the former changes the bit set in mask to values set in
+value and preserves the rest; the latter sets the bits set in the bitmap and
+clears the rest.
+
+Compact form: nested (bitset) atrribute contents:
+
+  ============================  ======  ============================
+  ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_NOMASK``   flag    no mask, only a list
+  ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_SIZE``     u32     number of significant bits
+  ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_VALUE``    binary  bitmap of bit values
+  ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_MASK``     binary  bitmap of valid bits
+  ============================  ======  ============================
+
+Value and mask must have length at least ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_SIZE`` bits
+rounded up to a multiple of 32 bits. They consist of 32-bit words in host byte
+order, words ordered from least significant to most significant (i.e. the same
+way as bitmaps are passed with ioctl interface).
+
+For compact form, ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_SIZE`` and ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_VALUE`` are
+mandatory. ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_MASK`` attribute is mandatory if
+``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_NOMASK`` is not set (bitset represents a value/mask pair);
+if ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_NOMASK`` is not set, ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_MASK`` is not
+allowed (bitset represents a single bitmap.
+
+Kernel bit set length may differ from userspace length if older application is
+used on newer kernel or vice versa. If userspace bitmap is longer, an error is
+issued only if the request actually tries to set values of some bits not
+recognized by kernel.
+
+Bit-by-bit form: nested (bitset) attribute contents:
+
+ +------------------------------------+--------+-----------------------------+
+ | ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_NOMASK``        | flag   | no mask, only a list        |
+ +------------------------------------+--------+-----------------------------+
+ | ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_SIZE``          | u32    | number of significant bits  |
+ +------------------------------------+--------+-----------------------------+
+ | ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_BITS``          | nested | array of bits               |
+ +-+----------------------------------+--------+-----------------------------+
+ | | ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_BITS_BIT+``   | nested | one bit                     |
+ +-+-+--------------------------------+--------+-----------------------------+
+ | | | ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_BIT_INDEX`` | u32    | bit index (0 for LSB)       |
+ +-+-+--------------------------------+--------+-----------------------------+
+ | | | ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_BIT_NAME``  | string | bit name                    |
+ +-+-+--------------------------------+--------+-----------------------------+
+ | | | ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_BIT_VALUE`` | flag   | present if bit is set       |
+ +-+-+--------------------------------+--------+-----------------------------+
+
+Bit size is optional for bit-by-bit form. ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_BITS`` nest can
+only contain ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_BITS_BIT`` attributes but there can be an
+arbitrary number of them.  A bit may be identified by its index or by its
+name. When used in requests, listed bits are set to 0 or 1 according to
+``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_BIT_VALUE``, the rest is preserved. A request fails if
+index exceeds kernel bit length or if name is not recognized.
+
+When ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_NOMASK`` flag is present, bitset is interpreted as
+a simple bitmap. ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_BIT_VALUE`` attributes are not used in
+such case. Such bitset represents a bitmap with listed bits set and the rest
+zero.
+
+In requests, application can use either form. Form used by kernel in reply is
+determined by ``ETHTOOL_FLAG_COMPACT_BITSETS`` flag in flags field of request
+header. Semantics of value and mask depends on the attribute.
