[PATCH 5.6 003/177] ethtool: count header size in reply size estimate

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Jun 01 2020 - 14:41:40 EST


From: Michal Kubecek <mkubecek@xxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 7c87e32d2e380228ada79d20ac5b7674718ef097 ]

As ethnl_request_ops::reply_size handlers do not include common header
size into calculated/estimated reply size, it needs to be added in
ethnl_default_doit() and ethnl_default_notify() before allocating the
message. On the other hand, strset_reply_size() should not add common
header size.

Fixes: 728480f12442 ("ethtool: default handlers for GET requests")
