[RTNETLINK]: Fix RTNLGRP definitions in rtnetlink.h

2005-12-19T21:54:44+00:00

I reported a problem and gave hints to the solution, but nobody seemed
to react. So I prepared a patch against 2.6.14.4.

Tested on 2.6.14.4 with "ip monitor addr" and with the program
attached, while adding and removing IPv6 address. Both programs didn't
receive any messages.  Tested 2.6.14.4 + this patch, and both programs
received add and remove messages.

[NETLINK]: Neighbour table configuration and statistics via rtnetlink

2005-06-19T05:50:55+00:00

To retrieve the neighbour tables send RTM_GETNEIGHTBL with the
NLM_F_DUMP flag set. Every neighbour table configuration is
spread over multiple messages to avoid running into message
size limits on systems with many interfaces. The first message
in the sequence transports all not device specific data such as
statistics, configuration, and the default parameter set.
This message is followed by 0..n messages carrying device
specific parameter sets.

Although the ordering should be sufficient, NDTA_NAME can be
used to identify sequences. The initial message can be identified
by checking for NDTA_CONFIG. The device specific messages do
not contain this TLV but have NDTPA_IFINDEX set to the
corresponding interface index.

To change neighbour table attributes, send RTM_SETNEIGHTBL
with NDTA_NAME set. Changeable attribute include NDTA_THRESH[1-3],
NDTA_GC_INTERVAL, and all TLVs in NDTA_PARMS unless marked
otherwise. Device specific parameter sets can be changed by
setting NDTPA_IFINDEX to the interface index of the corresponding
device.

[NETLINK] Routing attribute related shortcuts

2005-06-19T05:50:38+00:00

 RTA_GET_U(32|64)(tlv)
   Assumes TLV is a u32/u64 field and returns its value.

 RTA_GET_[M]SECS(tlv)
   Assumes TLV is a u64 and transports jiffies converted
   to seconds or milliseconds and returns its value.

 RTA_PUT_U(32|64)(skb, type, value)
   Appends %value as fixed u32/u64 to %skb as TLV %type.

 RTA_PUT_[M]SECS(skb, type, jiffies)
   Converts %jiffies to secs/msecs and appends it as u64
   to %skb as TLV %type.

 RTA_PUT_STRING(skb, type, string)
   Appends %NUL terminated %string to %skb as TLV %type.

 RTA_NEST(skb, type)
   Starts a nested TLV %type and returns the nesting handle.

 RTA_NEST_END(skb, nesting_handle)
   Finishes the nested TLV %nesting_handle, must be called
   symmetric to RTA_NEST(). Returns skb->len

 RTA_NEST_CANCEL(skb, nesting_handle)
   Cancel the nested TLV %nesting_handle and trim nested TLV
   from skb again, returns -1.
