With netlink you may receive the data asynchronously however you wish after you've requested a dump.
I would like to ask that you go study how netlink works and is used by things like routing daemons before we discuss this further as it looks to me like half the conversation is going to be showing you how netlink works. And hey there's even an RFC on netlink :) - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
