System.Linux.Netlink.GeNetlink.Control

Description

This module provides utility functions and datatypes for the genetlink control protocol. This has to be used by implementations of netlink families based on genetlink to lookup their current id, since that is determined at runtime.

Synopsis

data CtrlAttribute
data CtrlAttrMcastGroup = CAMG {
- grpName :: String
- grpId :: Word32
}
data CtrlPacket = CtrlPacket {
- ctrlHeader :: Header
- ctrlGeHeader :: GenlHeader
- ctrlAttributes :: [CtrlAttribute]
}
type CTRLPacket = GenlPacket NoData
ctrlPacketFromGenl :: CTRLPacket -> Maybe CtrlPacket
data CtrlAttrOpData = CAO {
- opId :: Word32
- opFlags :: Word32
}
ctrlPackettoGenl :: CtrlPacket -> CTRLPacket
getFamilyId :: NetlinkSocket -> String -> IO Word16
getFamilyIdS :: NetlinkSocket -> String -> IO (Maybe Word16)
