[Intel-wired-lan] [net-next PATCH 1/8] flow: create nl interface to wrap low level flow msg details

John Fastabend john.r.fastabend at intel.com
Mon May 18 22:03:27 UTC 2015


From: John Fastabend <john.r.fastabend at intel.com>

Some low-level functions that can be used to interface with
API from other programs without having to invoke NETLINK
primitives.
