From 29c5d4afba51c71cfeadd3f74f3c42e064483fb0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Leblond Date: Tue, 18 Sep 2007 13:07:15 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] [NETFILTER]: nfnetlink_log: fix sending of multipart messages The following patch fixes the handling of netlink packets containing multiple messages. As exposed during netfilter workshop, nfnetlink_log was overwritten the message type of the last message (setting it to MSG_DONE) in a multipart packet. The consequence was libnfnetlink to ignore the last message in the packet. The following patch adds a supplementary message (with type MSG_DONE) af the end of the netlink skb.
