[Bug 1511735] Re: libnl: fail to bind() netlink sockets

[Ryan Harper]

Hi,

Thanks for the quick update.  I've applied the 4 patches and built a new
test package with the changes.    The example test does indeed fail on
the current version and passes on the new version as well.

I went looking for any other libnl3 tests we might run to catch any
possible regression that might occur when accepting the patches I looked
at the RH bug you referenced and found another testcase ( used to expose
the issue.  I ran that on the updated package and it passes tests a, b
and c, but not d.

I examined the patch applied and it included more fixes, specifically:

Subject: [PATCH 09/10] socket: clear port when unable to generate local
port

which the 'd' test which attempts to test by allocate more than 1024
local ports.  Should a fix for that also be included?
