mainlining shenanigans
25e94a997b
The underlying nlmsg_multicast() already sets sk->sk_err for us to notify socket overruns, so we should not do anything with this return value. So we just call nfnetlink_set_err() if: 1) We fail to allocate the netlink message. or 2) We don't have enough space in the netlink message to place attributes, which means that we likely need to allocate a larger message. Before this patch, the internal ESRCH netlink error code was propagated to userspace, which is quite misleading. Netlink semantics mandate that listeners just hit ENOBUFS if the socket buffer overruns.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
