From b42be38b2778eda2237fc759e55e3b698b05b315 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Herrmann Date: Wed, 17 Jun 2015 17:14:33 +0200 Subject: netlink: add API to retrieve all group memberships This patch adds getsockopt(SOL_NETLINK, NETLINK_LIST_MEMBERSHIPS) to retrieve all groups a socket is a member of. Currently, we have to use getsockname() and look at the nl.nl_groups bitmask. However, this mask is limited to 32 groups. Hence, similar to NETLINK_ADD_MEMBERSHIP and NETLINK_DROP_MEMBERSHIP, this adds a separate sockopt to manager higher groups IDs than 32. This new NETLINK_LIST_MEMBERSHIPS option takes a pointer to __u32 and the size of the array. The array is filled with the full membership-set of the socket, and the required array size is returned in optlen. Hence, user-space can retry with a properly sized array in case it was too small.
