From b424e432e770d6dd572765459d5b6a96a19c5286 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michal Kubecek Date: Thu, 2 May 2019 16:15:10 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] netlink: add validation of NLA_F_NESTED flag Add new validation flag NL_VALIDATE_NESTED which adds three consistency checks of NLA_F_NESTED_FLAG: - the flag is set on attributes with NLA_NESTED{,_ARRAY} policy - the flag is not set on attributes with other policies except NLA_UNSPEC - the flag is set on attribute passed to nla_parse_nested() Signed-off-by: Michal Kubecek v2: change error messages to mention NLA_F_NESTED explicitly Reviewed-by: Johannes Berg Reviewed-by: David Ahern Signed-off-by: David S.
