Subject: [PATCH net-next] lwtunnel: fix error path in lwtunnel_fill_encap()
Date: Fri, 28 Apr 2017 16:03:48 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170428130347.53hagk77wh6scmcs@mwanda> (raw)

We recently added a check to see if nla_nest_start() fails.  There are
two issues with that.  First, if it fails then I don't think we should
call nla_nest_cancel().  Second, it's slightly convoluted but the
current code returns success but we should return -EMSGSIZE instead.

Fixes: a50fe0ffd76f ("lwtunnel: check return value of nla_nest_start")
