netlink

Package netlink provides a simple library for netlink. Netlink is the interface a user-space program in linux uses to communicate with the kernel. It can be used to add and remove interfaces, set up ip addresses and routes, and confiugre ipsec. Netlink communication requires elevated privileges, so in most cases this code needs to be run as root. The low level primitives for netlink are contained in the nl subpackage. This package attempts to provide a high-level interface that is loosly modeled on the iproute2 cli.
