Hmm, actually on a second read I think there’s a potential problem here. Since you don’t set *idxattr and if the space
isn’t enough the dump will get restarted and this will lead to an infinite loop.
I.e. if the previous attributes filled the skb and there’s not enough room for this one, it will return an error
but *idxattr will be == 0 from the previous attribute thus the whole dump will be restarted (this is in case someone
requests this attribute with some of the others of course).
Cheers,
Nik
