From 8d89dcdf80d88007647945a753821a06eb6cc5a5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nicolas Dichtel Date: Fri, 11 Apr 2014 15:51:19 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] vti: don't allow to add the same tunnel twice Before the patch, it was possible to add two times the same tunnel: ip l a vti1 type vti remote 10.16.0.121 local 10.16.0.249 key 41 ip l a vti2 type vti remote 10.16.0.121 local 10.16.0.249 key 41 It was possible, because ip_tunnel_newlink() calls ip_tunnel_find() with the argument dev->type, which was set only later (when calling ndo_init handler in register_netdevice()). Let's set this type in the setup handler, which is called before newlink handler. Introduced by commit b9959fd3b0fa ("vti: switch to new ip tunnel code").
