With this patch, nfnetlink returns -ENOMEM instead of -EPERM if we fail to create the nfnetlink netlink socket during the module loading. This is exactly what rtnetlink does in this case.
Also applied, thanks.
Ideally, it would be better if we propagate the error that has happened in netlink_kernel_create(), however, this function still does not implement this yet.
Agreed, but AFAICS netlink_kernel_create() only returns an error on memory shortage, so this is fine currently. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netfilter-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
