Subject: [PATCH iproute2] libnetlink: Fix extack attribute parsing
Date: Thu, 17 Aug 2017 13:43:00 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1503002580-21267-1-git-send-email-dsahern@gmail.com> (raw)

Initialize tb in nl_dump_ext_err since not all attributes will be
sent in the messages.

Add error checking on mnl_attr_parse and print messages on the off
chance the ext ack attributes fail to validate.
