Are the attributes coming from the user space here or are generated by the kernel / were already validated? Depending on that this is either a fix and needs to be backported or a possible cleanup. Please repost with the explanation where attrs come from in the commit message, and if it's indeed a bug please add a Fixes tag. If we do need the nla_ok() we should probably also switch to nla_for_each_attr() and nla_for_each_nested(). _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] https://mail.openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/ovs-dev
