Subject: [PATCH 2/3] netfilter: ctnetlink: fix reliable event delivery if message building fails
Date: Wed, 17 Mar 2010 00:30:21 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100316233021.4185.8786.stgit@decadence> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20100316232247.4185.19426.stgit@decadence>

This patch fixes a bug that allows to lose events when reliable
event delivery mode is used, ie. if NETLINK_BROADCAST_SEND_ERROR
and NETLINK_RECV_NO_ENOBUFS socket options are set.
