The following patch is an example of a userspace tools (in fact, iptables)
that use the new netlink API to monitor tables activity.
I will also send a patch against libnfnetlink to update linux includes with
this new feature.
Maybe another API can be used for this feature: adding a setsockopt() on an
iptc socket to enable monitoring. When a table is updated, a packet (built with
CMSG_* macro for example) can be sent over all sockets that monitor tables
acitivity (like km sockets in IPsec). I know that this socket was used only with
[g|s]etsockopt(), but this can avoid adding another netlink API.
Comments are welcome.
Any feedback about this patch or the other proposed API?
Still no comment about this feature? Maybe another option to solve the problem?
Regards,
Nicolas
