Subject: [PATCH 1/2] dummy: fix oops when loading the dummy failed
Date: Thu, 11 Jul 2013 19:04:02 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <51DE9122.9090908@huawei.com> (raw)

We rename the dummy in modprobe.conf like this:

install dummy0 /sbin/modprobe -o dummy0 --ignore-install dummy
install dummy1 /sbin/modprobe -o dummy1 --ignore-install dummy

We got oops when we run the command:

modprobe dummy0
modprobe dummy1

The reason is that when loading dummy, if __rtnl_link_register() return failed,
the init_module should return and avoid take the wrong path.
