//! This example demonstrates how extended ACK attributes are reported on error.
//! See https://docs.kernel.org/userspace-api/netlink/intro.html#extended-ack
//!
//! Unfortunately, only validation policy violations is consistently reported,
//! and there're not many netlink families correctly reporting missing attributes.
//!
//! Run with: `cargo run --example extack --features=rt-link`
