From: Jiri Benc <jbenc@xxxxxxxxxx> This patch has been added to the 3.12 stable tree. If you have any objections, please let us know. =============== [ Upstream commit 945a36761fd7877660f630bbdeb4ff9ff80d1935 ] Commit 1d8faf48c74b8 ("net/core: Add VF link state control") added new attribute to IFLA_VF_INFO group in rtnl_fill_ifinfo but did not adjust size of the allocated memory in if_nlmsg_size/rtnl_vfinfo_size. As the result, we may trigger warnings in rtnl_getlink and similar functions when many VF links are enabled, as the information does not fit into the allocated skb.
