[net-next,0/3] tools: ynl: decode link types present in tests

Message

Using a kernel built for the net selftest target to run drivers/net
tests currently fails, because the net kernel automatically spawns
a handful of tunnel devices which YNL can't decode.

Fill in those missing link types in rt_link. We need to extend subset
support a bit for it to work.

Jakub Kicinski (3):
  tools: ynl: correctly handle overrides of fields in subset
  tools: ynl: print some information about attribute we can't parse
  netlink: specs: rt_link: decode ip6tnl, vti and vti6 link attrs

I've seen similar issues with (builtin) ip6tnl in my VMs, thanks for
fixing!
