gre: don't allow to add the same tunnel twice
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Before the patch, it was possible to add two times the same tunnel:
ip l a gre1 type gre remote 10.16.0.121 local 10.16.0.249
ip l a gre2 type gre remote 10.16.0.121 local 10.16.0.249

It was possible, because ip_tunnel_newlink() calls ip_tunnel_find() with the
argument dev->type, which was set only later (when calling ndo_init handler
in register_netdevice()). Let's set this type in the setup handler, which is
called before newlink handler.

Introduced by commit c544193 ("GRE: Refactor GRE tunneling code.").
