Subject: rtnetlink: check DO_SETLINK_NOTIFY correctly in do_setlink
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=64ff90cc2e6f42596d7a0c37e41dc95292bb63b1;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

rtnetlink: check DO_SETLINK_NOTIFY correctly in do_setlink

The check 'status & DO_SETLINK_NOTIFY' in do_setlink doesn't really
work after status & DO_SETLINK_MODIFIED, as:

  DO_SETLINK_MODIFIED 0x1
  DO_SETLINK_NOTIFY 0x3

Considering that notifications are suppposed to be sent only when
status have the flag DO_SETLINK_NOTIFY, the right check would be:

  (status & DO_SETLINK_NOTIFY) == DO_SETLINK_NOTIFY

This would avoid lots of duplicated notifications when setting some
properties of a link.
