newbie looking for libnl-gen examples

[Matthew Monaco]

Hello,

I'm new to Netlink sockets in both kernel and userspace. It's easy enough to
find kernel side code to work off of, but I'm having trouble finding *any*
examples of userspace code using libnl for generic sockets. The documentation on
the libnl page is good, but it would be nice to have examples of a libnl-gen
program.

At the moment I'm trying to understand why the attributes / policy types differ
in both kernel space and user space. Am I supposed to redefine the policy on
each end? Is there no way to get the policy array in the same way that the
family struct can be queried?

Thanks!
