Jaroslav reports Dell's OMSA Systems Management Data Engine
expects NLM_DONE in a separate recvmsg(), both for rtnl_dump_ifinfo()
and inet_dump_ifaddr(). We already added a similar fix previously in
commit 460b0d33cf10 ("inet: bring NLM_DONE out to a separate recv() again")
Instead of modifying all the dump handlers, and making them look
different than modern for_each_netdev_dump()-based dump handlers -
put the workaround in rtnetlink code. This will also help us move
the custom rtnl-locking from af_netlink in the future (in net-next).
Note that this change is not touching rtnl_dump_all(). rtnl_dump_all()
is different kettle of fish and a potential problem. We now mix families
in a single recvmsg(), but NLM_DONE is not coalesced.
Tested:
./cli.py --dbg-small-recv 4096 --spec netlink/specs/rt_addr.yaml \
--dump getaddr --json '{"ifa-family": 2}'
./cli.py --dbg-small-recv 4096 --spec netlink/specs/rt_route.yaml \
--dump getroute --json '{"rtm-family": 2}'
./cli.py --dbg-small-recv 4096 --spec netlink/specs/rt_link.yaml \
--dump getlink
Fixes: 3e41af90767d ("rtnetlink: use xarray iterator to implement rtnl_dump_ifinfo()")
Fixes: cdb2f80f1c10 ("inet: use xa_array iterator to implement inet_dump_ifaddr()")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
