+ * Netlink is a message framing format described in RFC 3549 and used heavily
+ * in Linux to access the network stack.  Open vSwitch uses AF_NETLINK sockets
+ * for this purpose on Linux.  But on all platforms, Open vSwitch uses Netlink

+ * This header provides access to the Netlink message framing definitions

+ * on other platforms it directly defines the structures and macros itself.
