After commit0ce1822c2a("vxlan: add adjacent link to limit depth level"), vxlan_changelink() could fail because of netdev_adjacent_change_prepare(). netdev_adjacent_change_prepare() returns -EEXIST when old lower device and new lower device are same. (old lower device is "dst->remote_dev" and new lower device is "lowerdev") So, before calling it, lowerdev should be NULL if these devices are same. Test command1: ip link add dummy0 type dummy ip link add vxlan0 type vxlan dev dummy0 dstport 4789 vni 1 ip link set vxlan0 type vxlan ttl 5 RTNETLINK answers: File exists Reported-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com> Fixes:0ce1822c2a("vxlan: add adjacent link to limit depth level") Signed-off-by: Taehee Yoo <ap420073@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

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.
