From 178fe94405bffbd1acd83b6ff3b40211185ae9c9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christophe JAILLET Date: Fri, 28 Dec 2018 23:28:21 +0100 Subject: net/ipv6: Fix a test against 'ipv6_find_idev()' return value 'ipv6_find_idev()' returns NULL on error, not an error pointer. Update the test accordingly and return -ENOBUFS, as already done in 'addrconf_add_dev()', if NULL is returned. Fixes: ("ipv6: allow userspace to add IFA_F_OPTIMISTIC addresses") Signed-off-by: Christophe JAILLET Signed-off-by: David S.
