There is nfq_fd() and setsockopt() that you can use:
setsockopt(fd, SOL_SOCKET, SO_RCVBUFFORCE, &size, socklen);
setsockopt(fd, SOL_SOCKET, SO_RCVBUF, &size, socklen);
libnfnetlink is **deprecated** and it will be removed at some point,
the git log shows that it has less and less users.
main libnfnetlink users are the libnetfilter_* libraries.
No new application should be using libnfnetlink in 2023.
