From: Stephen Worley <sworley@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit f9e95555757915fc194288862d2978e370fe316b ] Include the size of struct nhmsg size when calculating how much of a payload to allocate in a new netlink nexthop notification message. Without this, we will fail to fill the skbuff at certain nexthop group sizes. You can reproduce the failure with the following iproute2 commands: ip link add dummy1 type dummy ip link add dummy2 type dummy ip link add dummy3 type dummy ip link add dummy4 type dummy ip link add dummy5 type dummy ip link add dummy6 type dummy ip link add dummy7 type dummy ip link add dummy8 type dummy ip link add dummy9 type dummy ip link add dummy10 type dummy ip link add dummy11 type dummy ip link add dummy12 type dummy ip link add dummy13 type dummy ip link add dummy14 type dummy ip link add dummy15 type dummy ip link add dummy16 type dummy ip link add dummy17 type dummy ip link add dummy18 type dummy ip link add dummy19 type dummy ip ro add 1.1.1.1/32 dev dummy1 ip ro add 1.1.1.2/32 dev dummy2 ip ro add 1.1.1.3/32 dev dummy3 ip ro add 1.1.1.4/32 dev dummy4 ip ro add 1.1.1.5/32 dev dummy5 ip ro add 1.1.1.6/32 dev dummy6 ip ro add 1.1.1.7/32 dev dummy7 ip ro add 1.1.1.8/32 dev dummy8 ip ro add 1.1.1.9/32 dev dummy9 ip ro add 1.1.1.10/32 dev dummy10 ip ro add 1.1.1.11/32 dev dummy11 ip ro add 1.1.1.12/32 dev dummy12 ip ro add 1.1.1.13/32 dev dummy13 ip ro add 1.1.1.14/32 dev dummy14 ip ro add 1.1.1.15/32 dev dummy15 ip ro add 1.1.1.16/32 dev dummy16 ip ro add 1.1.1.17/32 dev dummy17 ip ro add 1.1.1.18/32 dev dummy18 ip ro add 1.1.1.19/32 dev dummy19 ip next add id 1 via 1.1.1.1 dev dummy1 ip next add id 2 via 1.1.1.2 dev dummy2 ip next add id 3 via 1.1.1.3 dev dummy3 ip next add id 4 via 1.1.1.4 dev dummy4 ip next add id 5 via 1.1.1.5 dev dummy5 ip next add id 6 via 1.1.1.6 dev dummy6 ip next add id 7 via 1.1.1.7 dev dummy7 ip next add id 8 via 1.1.1.8 dev dummy8 ip next add id 9 via 1.1.1.9 dev dummy9 ip next add id 10 via 1.1.1.10 dev dummy10 ip next add id 11 via 1.1.1.11 dev dummy11 ip next add id 12 via 1.1.1.12 dev dummy12 ip next add id 13 via 1.1.1.13 dev dummy13 ip next add id 14 via 1.1.1.14 dev dummy14 ip next add id 15 via 1.1.1.15 dev dummy15 ip next add id 16 via 1.1.1.16 dev dummy16 ip next add id 17 via 1.1.1.17 dev dummy17 ip next add id 18 via 1.1.1.18 dev dummy18 ip next add id 19 via 1.1.1.19 dev dummy19 ip next add id 1111 group 1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8/9/10/11/12/13/14/15/16/17/18/19 ip next del id 1111 Fixes: 430a049190de ("nexthop: Add support for nexthop groups") Signed-off-by: Stephen Worley <sworley@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: David Ahern <dsahern@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: David S.
