(description
"The libnl suite is a collection of libraries providing APIs to netlink
protocol based Linux kernel interfaces. Netlink is an IPC mechanism primarly
between the kernel and user space processes. It was designed to be a more
flexible successor to ioctl to provide mainly networking related kernel
configuration and monitoring interfaces.")
