This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled l2tp: generate correct module alias strings to the 6.2-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: l2tp-generate-correct-module-alias-strings.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.2 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 12de266019186d49559737a12292ab5272a47c90 Author: Andrea Righi <andrea.righi@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Mar 30 11:54:42 2023 +0200 l2tp: generate correct module alias strings [ Upstream commit 154e07c164859fc90bf4e8143f2f6c1af9f3a35e ] Commit 65b32f801bfb ("uapi: move IPPROTO_L2TP to in.h") moved the definition of IPPROTO_L2TP from a define to an enum, but since __stringify doesn't work properly with enums, we ended up breaking the modalias strings for the l2tp modules: $ modinfo l2tp_ip l2tp_ip6 | grep alias alias: net-pf-2-proto-IPPROTO_L2TP alias: net-pf-2-proto-2-type-IPPROTO_L2TP alias: net-pf-10-proto-IPPROTO_L2TP alias: net-pf-10-proto-2-type-IPPROTO_L2TP Use the resolved number directly in MODULE_ALIAS_*() macros (as we already do with SOCK_DGRAM) to fix the alias strings: $ modinfo l2tp_ip l2tp_ip6 | grep alias alias: net-pf-2-proto-115 alias: net-pf-2-proto-115-type-2 alias: net-pf-10-proto-115 alias: net-pf-10-proto-115-type-2 Moreover, fix the ordering of the parameters passed to MODULE_ALIAS_NET_PF_PROTO_TYPE() by switching proto and type.
