Subject: [PATCHv2 8/8] vxlan: fix oops when give unknown ifindex
Date: Tue, 09 Oct 2012 23:35:53 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20121010063623.935671507@vyatta.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20121010063545.453368147@vyatta.com

[-- Attachment #1: vxlan-baddev.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1163 bytes --]

If vxlan is created and the ifindex is passed; there are two cases which
are incorrectly handled by the existing code. The ifindex could be zero
(i.e. no device) or there could be no device with that ifindex.
