tools: ynl: remove unused imports

2025-09-11T01:08:59Z

These imports are not used according to Ruff, and can be safely removed. This is linked to Ruff error F401 [1]: Unused imports add a performance overhead at runtime, and risk creating import cycles. They also increase the cognitive load of reading the code. There is one exception with 'YnlDocGenerator' which is added in __all__: it is used by ynl_gen_rst.py.

tools: ynl_gen_rst.py: Split library from command line tool

2025-08-12T05:47:30Z

As we'll be using the Netlink specs parser inside a Sphinx extension, move the library part from the command line parser. While here, change the code which generates an index file to parse inputs from both .rst and .yaml extensions. With that, the tool can easily be tested with: tools/net/ynl/pyynl/ynl_gen_rst.py -x -o Documentation/netlink/specs/foo.rst Without needing to first generate a temp directory with the rst files.

tools: ynl: move python code to separate sub-directory

2025-01-09T20:53:27Z

Move python code to a separate directory so it can be packaged as a python module. Updates existing references in selftests and docs. Also rename ynl-gen-[c|rst] to ynl_gen_[c|rst], avoid dashes as these prevent easy imports for entrypoints.
