[−][src]Module neli::err

Error module This is the module that contains the error types used in neli

There are three main types:

  • NlError - typically socket errors
  • DeError - Error while deserializing
  • SerError - Error while serializing

Additionally there is one other type: Nlmsgerr. This type is returned at the protocol level by netlink sockets when an error has been returned in response to the given request.

Design decisions

NlError can either be created with a custom String message or using three variants, one for no ACK received, one for a bad PID that does not correspond to that assigned to the socket, or one for a bad sequence number that does not correspond to the request sequence number.
