.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||||
libnetlink provides a higher level interface to
|
||||
.BR rtnetlink(7).
|
||||
The read functions return 0 on success and a negative errno on failure.
|
||||
The send functions return the amount of data sent, or -1 on error.
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
rtnl_open
|
||||
Open a rtnetlink socket and save the state into the
|
||||
.B rth
|
||||
handle. This handle is passed to all subsequent calls.
|
||||
.B subscriptions
|
||||
is a bitmap of the rtnetlink multicast groups the socket will be
|
||||
a member of.
|
||||
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
rtnl_wilddump_request
|
||||
Request a full dump of the
|
||||
.B type
|
||||
database for
|
||||
.B family
|
||||
addresses.
|
||||
.B type
|
||||
is a rtnetlink message type.
|
||||
.\" XXX
|
||||
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
rtnl_dump_request
|
||||
Request a full dump of the
|
||||
.B type
|
||||
data buffer into
|
||||
.B buf
|
||||
with maximum length of
|
||||
.B len.
|
||||
.B type
|
||||
is a rtnetlink message type.
|
||||
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
rtnl_dump_filter
|
||||
Receive netlink data after a request and filter it.
|
||||
The
|
||||
.B filter
|
||||
callback checks if the received message is wanted. It gets the source
|
||||
address of the message, the message itself and
|
||||
.B arg1
|
||||
as arguments. 0 as return means that the filter passed, a negative
|
||||
value is returned
|
||||
by
|
||||
.I rtnl_dump_filter
|
||||
in case of error. NULL for
|
||||
.I filter
|
||||
means to not use a filter.
|
||||
.B junk
|
||||
is used to filter messages not destined to the local socket.
|
||||
Only one message bundle is received. Unless there is no message
|
||||
pending, this function does not block.
|
||||
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
rtnl_listen
|
||||
Receive netlink data after a request and pass it to
|
||||
.I handler.
|
||||
.B handler
|
||||
is a callback that gets the message source address, the message itself,
|
||||
and the
|
||||
.B jarg
|
||||
cookie as arguments. It will get called for all received messages.
|
||||
Only one message bundle is received. Unless there is no message
|
||||
pending this function does not block.
|
||||
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
rtnl_from_file
|
||||
Works like
|
||||
.I rtnl_listen,
|
||||
but reads a netlink message bundle from the file
|
||||
.B file
|
||||
and passes the messages to
|
||||
.B handler
|
||||
for parsing. The file contains raw data as received from a rtnetlink socket.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
The following functions are useful to construct custom rtnetlink messages. For
|
||||
simple database dumping with filtering it is better to use the higher level
|
||||
functions above. See
|
||||
.BR rtnetlink(3)
|
||||
and
|
||||
.BR netlink(3)
|
||||
on how to generate a rtnetlink message. The following utility functions
|
||||
require a continuous buffer that already contains a netlink message header
|
||||
and a rtnetlink request.
|
||||
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
rtnl_send
|
||||
Send the rtnetlink message in
|
||||
.B buf
|
||||
of length
|
||||
.B len
|
||||
to handle
|
||||
.B rth.
|
||||
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
addattr32
|
||||
Add a __u32 attribute of type
|
||||
.B type
|
||||
and with value
|
||||
.B data
|
||||
to netlink message
|
||||
.B n,
|
||||
which is part of a buffer of length
|
||||
.B maxlen.
|
||||
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
addattr_l
|
||||
Add a variable length attribute of type
|
||||
.B type
|
||||
and with value
|
||||
.B data
|
||||
and
|
||||
.B alen
|
||||
length to netlink message
|
||||
.B n,
|
||||
which is part of a buffer of length
|
||||
.B maxlen.
|
||||
.B data
|
||||
is copied.
|
||||
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
rta_addattr32
|
||||
Initialize the rtnetlink attribute
|
||||
.B rta
|
||||
with a __u32 data value.
|
||||
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
rta_addattr32
|
||||
Initialize the rtnetlink attribute
|
||||
.B rta
|
||||
with a variable length data value.
|
||||
|
||||
.SH BUGS
|
||||
The functions sometimes use fprintf and exit when a fatal error occurs.
|
||||
This library should be named librtnetlink.
