Have you some links to suggest to me in order to have > some programming examples? The libnl library itself is probably the best example that I have seen. At it's core it is basically just regular Netlink with an extra layer of abstraction, i.e. a new header between the Netlink header and the payload. Also, if you are still looking for in-kernel examples here are two _very_ simple ones which might help: * net/netlabel/netlabel_unlabeled.c:netlbl_unlabel_accept() This function reads a single attribute, NLBL_UNLABEL_A_ACPTFLG, sent from user space and acts on the value. * net/netlabel/netlabel_unlabeled.c:netlbl_unlabel_list() This function generates a reply message with a single attribute, NLBL_UNLABEL_A_ACPTFLG, in response to a request message. -- paul moore linux security @ hp - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
