Wireguard is a modern enough genetlink family, that it doesn't need resv_start_op. It already had policies in place when it was first merged, it has also never used reserved fields, or other things toggled by resv_start_op. [TODO: before v1, also test with ancient wireguard-tools versions] Signed-off-by: Asbjørn Sloth Tønnesen <redacted> --- drivers/net/wireguard/netlink.c | 1 - 1 file changed, 1 deletion(-)
