Currently, ipv6_find_idev returns NULL when ipv6_add_dev fails, ignoring the specific error value. This results in addrconf_add_dev returning ENOBUFS in all cases, which is unfortunate in cases such as: # ip link add dummyX type dummy # ip link set dummyX mtu 1200 up # ip addr add 2000::/64 dev dummyX RTNETLINK answers: No buffer space available Commit a317a2f1 ("ipv6: fail early when creating netdev named all or default") introduced error returns in ipv6_add_dev. Before that, that function would simply return NULL for all failures. Signed-off-by: Sabrina Dubroca <sd@queasysnail.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
