The Netfilter project proudly presents: libmnl 1.0.3 libmnl is a minimalistic (really!) library that provides simple abstractions to communicate using Netlink sockets. If you're looking for a way to communicate some kernel subsystem and user-space, Netlink provides a nice method to do so. For those not yet familiar with Netlink, I suggest you to read: http://1984.lsi.us.es/~pablo/docs/spae.pdf This release include one fix and one new interface to allow to parse messages from some payload offset, skipping the Netlink header. See ChangeLog that comes attached to this email for more details. You can download it from: http://www.netfilter.org/projects/libmnl/downloads.html ftp://ftp.netfilter.org/pub/libmnl/ Have fun!
