From 8039371847174ff37dc3d02e83cd789dbb6140b0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?utf8?q?Michael=20Wei=C3=9F?= Date: Fri, 23 Sep 2022 15:38:19 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] net: openvswitch: allow metering in non-initial user namespace MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit The Netlink interface for metering was restricted to global CAP_NET_ADMIN by using GENL_ADMIN_PERM. To allow metring in a non-inital user namespace, e.g., a container, this is changed to GENL_UNS_ADMIN_PERM.
