Struct NetlinkSocket 

pub struct NetlinkSocket { /* private fields */ }

Available on crate feature std or non-crate feature async only.

Implementations

impl NetlinkSocket

pub fn request_chained<'a, Chained>( &'a mut self, request: &'a Chained, ) -> Result<NetlinkReplyChained<'a>>

where Chained: NetlinkChained + Send + Sync,

Execute a chained request (experimental)

Some subsystems have special requirements for related requests, expecting certain types of messages to be sent within a single write operation. For example transactions in nftables subsystem.

Chained requests currently don’t support replies carrying data.

impl NetlinkSocket

pub fn new() -> Self

pub fn reserve_seq(&mut self, len: u32) -> u32

Reserve a sequential chunk of seq values, so chained messages don’t get confused. A random seq number might be used just as well.

pub fn request<'sock, Request>( &'sock mut self, request: &Request, ) -> Result<NetlinkReply<'sock, Request>>

where Request: NetlinkRequest,

Trait Implementations
