Netlink library for rust. Work in progress.
This was made to explore Rust while also exploring how nl80211 works. Thus a netlink subsystem was needed.
As most API's in the Linux kernel realm, this is a bit hairy and incoherent. Most of the energy has been put into the generic Netlink area.
There are some examples in the examples directory. Run them using cargo.
cargo run --example example
cargo run --example uevent_example
Rust 1.30.0 or later is needed.
Tested on following platforms,
- Linux 4.18 x86_64, Fedora 28
- Linux 4.1 ARMv7
- Linux 4.9 AArch64
