[PATCH net] netlink: avoid a double skb free in genlmsg_mcast()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



nlmsg_multicast() consumes always the skb, thus the original skb must be
freed only when this function is called with a clone.

Fixes: cb9f7a9a5c96 ("netlink: ensure to loop over all netns in genlmsg_multicast_allns()")
