The last user of nla_put_u64() is block/drbd. This module does not use standard netlink API (see all the stuff in include/linux/genl_magic_struct.h and include/linux/genl_magic_func.h).
Yet another example where doing things in a special unique way creates headaches and pain for everyone... sigh.
I didn't modify it because it's seems hard to do it whithout testing and fully understanding the context (for example, why include/linux/drbd_genl.h is not part of uapi?). Any thoughts?
I think you'll need to work with the drbd maintainer(s) to resolve this and test the result. Series applied, thanks. _______________________________________________ dev mailing list dev@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/dev
