[PATCH mptcp-next v8 3/8] mptcp: pm: more precise error messages
Posted by Geliang Tang 1 week, 6 days ago
From: "Matthieu Baerts (NGI0)" <matttbe@kernel.org>

Some errors reported by the userspace PM were vague: "this or that is
invalid".

It is easier for the userspace to know which part is wrong, instead of
having to guess that.

By splitting some error messages, NL_SET_ERR_MSG_ATTR() can be used
instead of GENL_SET_ERR_MSG() in order to give an additional hint to the
userspace developers about which attribute is wrong.

While at it, in mptcp_userspace_pm_set_flags() move the parsing after
the check linked to the local attribute.
