X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=7c76509d0da99f29289b9b7ab134791e45d49b15;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2FG12%2Fandroid_kernel_amlogic_linux-4.9.git [NETNS][IPV6]: Make mld_max_msf readonly in other namespaces. The mld_max_msf protects the system with a maximum allowed multicast source filters. Making this variable per namespace can be potentially an problem if someone inside a namespace set it to a big value, that will impact the whole system including other namespaces. I don't see any benefits to have it per namespace for now, so in order to keep a directory entry in a newly created namespace, I make it read-only when we are not in the initial network namespace.
