In article [off-list ref] (at Tue, 13 Jun 2006 18:03:22 +0200), Patrick McHardy [off-list ref] says:
Yes, thats better. I also thing we shouldn't return -EINVAL but
-ENOSPC or something like that, -EINVAL usually indicated that
the user sent an invalid message, which isn't the case here.
Maybe a WARN_ON would also be appropriate, since this condition
always means there is a bug.
Yes, but that's another issue.
Of course, you can cook up patch for it.

How about this?

+/* Maximum length of ifinfomsg attributes */
+#define INET6_IFINFO_RTA_SPACE \
+		RTA_SPACE(IFNAMSIZ) /* IFNAME */ + \
:
This doesn't seem to account for IFLA_LINK. Other than that it looks
fine too me.
[IPV6]: Sum real space for RTAs.

This patch fixes RTNLGRP_IPV6_IFINFO netlink notifications.
Issue pointed out by Patrick McHardy [off-list ref].
