17 * The following information is partly extracted from RFC3549
18 * (ftp://ftp.rfc-editor.org/in-notes/rfc3549.txt)
19 *
20 * @par Message Format
21 * Netlink messages consist of a byte stream with one or multiple
22 * Netlink headers and an associated payload. If the payload is too big
23 * to fit into a single message it, can be split over multiple Netlink
24 * messages, collectively called a multipart message. For multipart
25 * messages, the first and all following headers have the \c NLM_F_MULTI
26 * Netlink header flag set, except for the last header which has the
27 * Netlink header type \c NLMSG_DONE.
28 *
29 * @par
30 * The Netlink message header (\link nlmsghdr struct nlmsghdr\endlink) is shown below.
31 * @code
32 * 0 1 2 3
33 * 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1

46 * The netlink message header and payload must be aligned properly:

49 * +----------------------------+- - -+- - - - - - - - - - -+- - -+

67 * alignment and formatting rules depening on the specific netlink
68 * families.

78 * @par The ACK Netlink Message
79 * This message is actually used to denote both an ACK and a NACK.
80 * Typically, the direction is from FEC to CPC (in response to an ACK
81 * request message). However, the CPC should be able to send ACKs back
82 * to FEC when requested.

96 * @par Example
97 * @code
98 * // Various methods exist to create/allocate a new netlink
99 * // message.
100 * //
101 * // nlmsg_alloc() will allocate an empty netlink message with
102 * // a maximum payload size which defaults to the page size of
103 * // the system. This default size can be modified using the
104 * // function nlmsg_set_default_size().
105 * struct nl_msg *msg = nlmsg_alloc();
106 *
107 * // Very often, the message type and message flags are known
108 * // at allocation time while the other fields are auto generated:
109 * struct nl_msg *msg = nlmsg_alloc_simple(MY_TYPE, MY_FLAGS);
110 *
111 * // Alternatively an existing netlink message header can be used
112 * // to inherit the header values:
113 * struct nlmsghdr hdr = {
114 * .nlmsg_type = MY_TYPE,
115 * .nlmsg_flags = MY_FLAGS,
116 * };
117 * struct nl_msg *msg = nlmsg_inherit(&hdr);
118 *
119 * // Last but not least, netlink messages received from netlink sockets
120 * // can be converted into nl_msg objects using nlmsg_convert(). This
121 * // will create a message with a maximum payload size which equals the
122 * // length of the existing netlink message, therefore no more data can
123 * // be appened without calling nlmsg_expand() first.
124 * struct nl_msg *msg = nlmsg_convert(nlh_from_nl_sock);
125 *
126 * // Payload may be added to the message via nlmsg_append(). The fourth
127 * // parameter specifies the number of alignment bytes the data should
128 * // be padding with at the end. Common values are 0 to disable it or
129 * // NLMSG_ALIGNTO to ensure proper netlink message padding.
130 * nlmsg_append(msg, &mydata, sizeof(mydata), 0);
131 *
132 * // Sometimes it may be necessary to reserve room for data but defer
133 * // the actual copying to a later point, nlmsg_reserve() can be used
134 * // for this purpose:
135 * void *data = nlmsg_reserve(msg, sizeof(mydata), NLMSG_ALIGNTO);
136 *
137 * // Attributes may be added using the attributes interface.
138 *
139 * // After successful use of the message, the memory must be freed
140 * // using nlmsg_free()
141 * nlmsg_free(msg);
