FWIW the rtnetlink use of netlink is very basic. genetlink already has some infra which allows associate state with a user socket and cleaning it up when the socket gets closed. This needs some improvements. A bit of a chicken and egg problem, I can't make the improvements until there are families making use of it, and nobody will make use of it until it's in tree... But the basics are already in place and I can help with building it out. > I guess the devil is in the details; I look forward to the evolution of > the patches. +1
