This scenario is impossible for all those flows. We can receive the skv/msg in two ways: * First by allocating new message with NLMSG_DEFAULT_SIZE, which has more room than nlmsg_total_size(payload), payload is 0. * Second by getting from netlink.c and it will be at least "struct nlmsghdr" too. Can you please add this info to the commit message? Thanks

I honestly don't know about all cases, but if message is allocated with NLMSG_DEFAULT_SIZE and payload is 0, this check won't be needed. So go ahead, add check if (!...) in all places, but be cautious with "potential null dereference" claims, it is not always true. Thanks > > Thanks > -- > Gustavo > > > > > >

In case the message header and payload cannot be stored, function nlmsg_put returns null.
