Hello,
I'm new to this list and also to kernel development.
I'd like to get notified when some specific event happen in the kernel,
like for example when a network interface goes up, or when a new
wireless Access Point has been discovered. In fact, all the events I'd
like to catch are broadcasted over netlink.
I found a lot of documentation about the communication between kernel
and userland using netlink, but could hardly find documentation about
kernel to kernel netlink usage.
What's the appropriate mechanism to catch the events I'm interested in?
And provided opening a netlink socket in the kernel is the way to go,
could you point me to relevant documentation or code example?
Regards,
Martin
