From: Martin Kletzander Date: Fri, 16 Aug 2024 13:59:15 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] virarptable: Fix check for message length Content-type: text/plain The previous check was all wrong since it calculated the how long would the netlink message be if the netlink header was the payload and then subtracted that from the whole message length, a variable that was not used later in the code. This check can fail if there are no additional payloads, struct rtattr in particular, which we are parsing later, however the RTA_OK macro would've caught that anyway.
