Subject: [PATCH net-next 4/7] dcb: validate netlink attribute link
Date: Tue, 10 Jan 2017 10:18:13 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170110181816.18991-5-sthemmin@microsoft.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170110181816.18991-1-sthemmin@microsoft.com>

The dcb netlink code was not validating that the IEEE_APP netlink
element was correctly formed.  Initially discovered because of the
warning ‘dcbnl_ieee_app’ defined but not used.
This indicated that the message was not being fully validated.

Compile tested only. Do not have DCB setup.
