ss: do not emit warn while dumping MPTCP on old kernels
Prior to this commit, running 'ss' on a kernel older than v5.9 bumps an error message: RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument When asked to dump protocol number > 255 - that is: MPTCP - 'ss' adds an INET_DIAG_REQ_PROTOCOL attribute, unsupported by the older kernel. Avoid the warning ignoring filter issues when INET_DIAG_REQ_PROTOCOL is used. Additionally older kernel end-up invoking tcpdiag_send(), which in turn will try to dump DCCP socks. Bail early in such function, as the kernel does not implement an MPTCPDIAG_GET request. Reported-by: "Rantala, Tommi T. (Nokia - FI/Espoo)" <tommi.t.rantala@nokia.com> Fixes: 9c3be2c0eee0 ("ss: mptcp: add msk diag interface support") Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <stephen@networkplumber.org>
