Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 3.18 04/22] tun: Consistently configure generic netdev params via rtnetlink
Date: Wed, 31 Oct 2018 19:11:48 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181031231206.29509-4-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20181031231206.29509-1-sashal@kernel.org>

From: Serhey Popovych <serhe.popovych@gmail.com>

[ Upstream commit df52eab23d703142c766ac00bdb8db19d71238d0 ]

Configuring generic network device parameters on tun will fail in
presence of IFLA_INFO_KIND attribute in IFLA_LINKINFO nested attribute
since tun_validate() always return failure.

This can be visualized with following ip-link(8) command sequences:

  # ip link set dev tun0 group 100
  # ip link set dev tun0 group 100 type tun
  RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument

with contrast to dummy and veth drivers:

  # ip link set dev dummy0 group 100
  # ip link set dev dummy0 type dummy

  # ip link set dev veth0 group 100
  # ip link set dev veth0 group 100 type veth

Fix by returning zero in tun_validate() when @data is NULL that is
always in case since rtnl_link_ops->maxtype is zero in tun driver.
