/* Netlink message helpers.
 *
 * Netlink is a datagram-based network protocol primarily for communication
 * between user processes and the kernel, and mainly on Linux.  Netlink is
 * specified in RFC 3549, "Linux Netlink as an IP Services Protocol".
 *
 * Netlink is not suitable for use in physical networks of heterogeneous
 * machines because host byte order is used throughout.
 *
 * This header file defines helper functions for working with Netlink messages.
 * For Netlink protocol definitions, see netlink-protocol.h.  For
 * Linux-specific definitions for Netlink sockets, see netlink-socket.h.
