Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH 0/2] lib: move Netlink wrapper to lib
Date: Tue, 13 Mar 2018 13:28:25 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1520943890.git.nelio.laranjeiro@6wind.com> (raw)

TAP PMD uses a wrapper to communicate with Netlink through a socket.  This
wrapper can be useful for other PMD which may need to communicate also with
the Linux kernel via Netlink.

This series moves this wrapper to the lib level to let any PMD implement use
it when necessary.

Nelio Laranjeiro (2):
  lib: move Netlink code into a common library
  lib: add request Netlink messages
