From b6ee376cb0b7fb4e7e07d6cd248bd40436fb9ba6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo Date: Fri, 1 Apr 2016 17:17:50 -0300 Subject: [PATCH] ip6_tunnel: set rtnl_link_ops before calling register_netdevice When creating an ip6tnl tunnel with ip tunnel, rtnl_link_ops is not set before ip6_tnl_create2 is called. When register_netdevice is called, there is no linkinfo attribute in the NEWLINK message because of that. Setting rtnl_link_ops before calling register_netdevice fixes that.
