Subject: [PATCH] iproute: Properly handle protocol level diag module absence
Date: Tue, 28 Jan 2014 21:32:00 +0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <52E7E990.7050501@parallels.com> (raw)
When *_diag module is missing in the kernel, the ss tool should go
ad read legacry /proc/* files.
This is the case when all *_diag stuff is missing, but in case the
inet_diag.ko is loaded, but (tcp|udp)_diag.ko is not, the ss tool
doesn't notice this and produces empty output. The reason for that
is -- error from the inet_diag module (which means, that e.g. the
udp_diag is missing) is reported in the NLMSG_DONE message body.
That said, we need to check the NLMSG_DONE's message return code
and act respectively.
