The current proc connector code has the foll. bugs - if there are more than one listeners for the proc connector messages, and one of them deregisters for listening using PROC_CN_MCAST_IGNORE, they will still get all proc connector messages, as long as there is another listener. Another issue is if one client calls PROC_CN_MCAST_LISTEN, and another one calls PROC_CN_MCAST_IGNORE, then both will end up not getting any messages. This patch adds filtering and drops packet if client has sent PROC_CN_MCAST_IGNORE. This data is stored in the client socket's sk_user_data. In addition, we only increment or decrement proc_event_num_listeners once per client. This fixes the above issues. cn_release is the release function added for NETLINK_CONNECTOR. It uses the newly added netlink_release function added to netlink_sock. It will free sk_user_data. Signed-off-by: Anjali Kulkarni <anjali.k.kulkarni@oracle.com> Reviewed-by: Liam R.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
