From 19a83d36f9837e8bd27435ebb31564a717a5d15a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michal Kubecek Date: Thu, 17 Sep 2020 01:04:10 +0200 Subject: ethtool: add and use message type for tunnel info reply Tunnel offload info code uses ETHTOOL_MSG_TUNNEL_INFO_GET message type (cmd field in genetlink header) for replies to tunnel info netlink request, i.e. the same value as the request have. This is a problem because we are using two separate enums for userspace to kernel and kernel to userspace message types so that this ETHTOOL_MSG_TUNNEL_INFO_GET (28) collides with ETHTOOL_MSG_CABLE_TEST_TDR_NTF which is what message type 28 means for kernel to userspace messages. As the tunnel info request reached mainline in 5.9 merge window, we should still be able to fix the reply message type without breaking backward compatibility.
