From b191ba0d599928372be5a89f75486eb58efab48a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Evgeniy Polyakov Date: Mon, 20 Mar 2006 22:21:40 -0800 Subject: [CONNECTOR]: Use netlink_has_listeners() to avoind unnecessary allocations. Return -ESRCH from cn_netlink_send() when there are not listeners, just as it could be done by netlink_broadcast(). Propagate netlink_broadcast() error back to the caller.
