Subject: [PATCH 1/2] iproute2: add libgenl files
Date: Sat, 8 Sep 2012 12:48:24 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1347097705-2906-2-git-send-email-ja@ssi.bg> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1347097705-2906-1-git-send-email-ja@ssi.bg>
Create libgenl.h and libgenl.c. They will contain
common code for GENL users such as ipl2tp, tcp_metrics, etc.
