Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL for 3.18 2/9] vti6: fix device register to report IFLA_INFO_KIND
Date: Wed, 22 Nov 2017 22:24:50 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171122222445.19957-2-alexander.levin@verizon.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20171122222445.19957-1-alexander.levin@verizon.com>
From: David Forster <dforster@brocade.com>
[ Upstream commit 93e246f783e6bd1bc64fdfbfe68b18161f69b28e ]
vti6 interface is registered before the rtnl_link_ops block
is attached. As a result the resulting RTM_NEWLINK is missing
IFLA_INFO_KIND. Re-order attachment of rtnl_link_ops block to fix.
