mainlining shenanigans

So far, if the filter was too large to fit in the allocated skb, the kernel did not return any error and stopped dumping. Modify the dumper so that it returns -EMSGSIZE when a filter fails to dump and it is the first filter in the skb. If we are not first, we will get a next chance with more room. I understand this is pretty near to being an API change, but the original design (silent truncation) can be considered a bug. Note: The error case can happen pretty easily if you create a filter with 32 actions and have 4kb pages. Also recent versions of iproute try to be clever with their buffer allocation size, which in turn leads to Signed-off-by: Roman Kapl <code@rkapl.cz> Acked-by: Jiri Pirko <jiri@mellanox.com> Acked-by: Cong Wang <xiyou.wangcong@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

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.
