linux.git/net/tipc/netlink.c, branch v2.6.22 Linux kernel source tree [TIPC]: Fix infinite loop in netlink handler 2007-06-24T05:59:40+00:00 Florian Westphal fw@strlen.de 2007-06-24T05:59:40+00:00 64beb8f3eb3c724add64ca3272915528e10213c1 The tipc netlink config handler uses the nlmsg_pid from the request header as destination for its reply. If the application initialized nlmsg_pid to 0, the reply is looped back to the kernel, causing hangup. Fix: use nlmsg_pid of the skb that triggered the request.
