From cf0a018ac669955c10e4fca24fa55dde58434e9a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Patrick McHardy Date: Wed, 17 Apr 2013 06:47:00 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] netlink: add netlink_skb_set_owner_r() For mmap'ed I/O a netlink specific skb destructor needs to be invoked after the final kfree_skb() to clean up state. This doesn't work currently since the skb's ownership is transfered to the receiving socket using skb_set_owner_r(), which orphans the skb, thereby invoking the destructor prematurely. Since netlink doesn't account skbs to the originating socket, there's no need to orphan the skb. Add a netlink specific skb_set_owner_r() variant that does not orphan the skb and use a netlink specific destructor to call sock_rfree(). Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy Signed-off-by: David S.
