[RFC PATCH] rtnetlink: Add filter for VF info dump requests

From: Greg Rose <hidden>
Date: 2012-02-07 22:51:52
Subsystem: networking drivers, networking [general], the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

Add a 256 bit filter to allow the user to filter which VFs' info will
get displayed during the dump info request.  This is to fix a bug in
which a an info dump request on a device with many VFs would overflow
the recvmsg buffer which is allocated to max(8192, PAGE_SIZE).  A
complimentary patch to the iproute2 ip tool will allow the user to
set/clear individual VF filters.
