Subject: [PATCH nfs-utils v2 2/4] nfsdctl: only resolve netlink family names once
Date: Wed, 04 Feb 2026 11:48:23 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260204-minthreads-v2-2-a7eba34201e9@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260204-minthreads-v2-0-a7eba34201e9@kernel.org>

The current code resolves the string name to an id for every netlink
call. Just resolve the family names once and keep them.

Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@kernel.org>
