Subject: [PATCH] netlink: fix for too early rmmod
Date: Sat, 30 Jan 2010 22:05:05 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100130200505.GA5318@x200> (raw)
Netlink code does module autoload if protocol userspace is asking for is
not ready. However, module can dissapear right after it was autoloaded.
Example: modprobe/rmmod stress-testing and xfrm_user.ko providing NETLINK_XFRM.
netlink_create() in such situation _will_ create userspace socket and
_will_not_ pin module. Now if module was removed and we're going to call
->netlink_rcv into nothing:

If module was quickly removed after autoloading, return -E.
Return -EPROTONOSUPPORT if module was quickly removed after autoloading.

"[NETLINK]: Don't prevent creating sockets when no kernel socket is registered"
error should probably be -ENOENT, but I have no idea what this
