Subject: [PATCH net-next 2/9] neighbour: Use nlmsg_payload in neightbl_valid_dump_info
Date: Fri, 11 Apr 2025 10:00:49 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250411-nlmsg-v1-2-ddd4e065cb15@debian.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250411-nlmsg-v1-0-ddd4e065cb15@debian.org>
Update neightbl_valid_dump_info function to utilize the new
nlmsg_payload() helper function.
This change improves code clarity and safety by ensuring that the
Netlink message payload is properly validated before accessing its data.
