Sorry if I goofed, I stated such after reading a bit of af_netlink.c: struct proto_ops netlink_ops = { family: PF_NETLINK, .... setsockopt: sock_no_setsockopt, getsockopt: sock_no_getsockopt, sendmsg: netlink_sendmsg, recvmsg: netlink_recvmsg, mmap: sock_no_mmap, sendpage: sock_no_sendpage, }; - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-net" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
