From ebf4127cd677e9781b450e44dfaaa1cc595efcaa Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Milan Broz Date: Mon, 22 Aug 2011 15:51:34 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] kobj_uevent: Ignore if some listeners cannot handle message kobject_uevent() uses a multicast socket and should ignore if one of listeners cannot handle messages or nobody is listening at all.
