Subject: [PATCH net 02/10] ethtool: tsconfig: fix reply error handling
Date: Tue, 26 May 2026 08:35:25 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260526153533.2779187-3-kuba@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260526153533.2779187-1-kuba@kernel.org>

A couple of trivial bugs in error handling in tsconfig_send_reply().
If we failed to allocate rskb we need to set the error.
If we did allocate it but failed to send it - we need to remember
to free it.

Fixes: 6e9e2eed4f39 ("net: ethtool: Add support for tsconfig command to get/set hwtstamp config")
