I just couldn't find a better one. You can split nf_log_register() in two functions to avoid this. > Thanks > > net/ipv4/netfilter/nf_log_arp.c | 8 +++++++- > net/ipv4/netfilter/nf_log_ipv4.c | 8 +++++++- > net/ipv6/netfilter/nf_log_ipv6.c | 8 +++++++- > net/netfilter/nf_log.c | 13 ++++++++++++- > 4 files changed, 33 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/net/ipv4/netfilter/nf_log_arp.c b/net/ipv4/netfilter/nf_log_arp.c > index ccfc78db12ee8acae68faf451f2cf6bc5597f2c1..8b39174b7be390397a110ec9d3ed497bf8ce6d26 100644 > --- a/net/ipv4/netfilter/nf_log_arp.c > +++ b/net/ipv4/netfilter/nf_log_arp.c > @@ -130,7 +130,13 @@ static int __init nf_log_arp_init(void) > if (ret < 0) > return ret; > > - nf_log_register(NFPROTO_ARP, &nf_arp_logger); > + ret = nf_log_register(NFPROTO_ARP, &nf_arp_logger); > + if (ret < 0) { > + pr_err("log: failed to register logger\n"); I think you can use pr_fmt to avoid appending log, it's also going to append useful information to know which logger has indeed failed. > + unregister_pernet_subsys(&nf_log_arp_net_ops); > + return ret; Could you add a goto err1; instead?
