From 7c1e8a3817c55d73b27cc29b84075999c8894179 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arthur Gautier Date: Mon, 31 Dec 2018 02:10:58 +0000 Subject: netlink: fixup regression in RTM_GETADDR This commit fixes a regression in AF_INET/RTM_GETADDR and AF_INET6/RTM_GETADDR. Before this commit, the kernel would stop dumping addresses once the first skb was full and end the stream with NLMSG_DONE(-EMSGSIZE). The error shouldn't be sent back to netlink_dump so the callback is kept alive. The userspace is expected to call back with a new empty skb. Changes from V1: - The error is not handled in netlink_dump anymore but rather in inet_dump_ifaddr and inet6_dump_addr directly as suggested by David Ahern.
