//! `netlink-proto` is an asynchronous implementation of the Netlink
//! protocol.
//!
//! # Example: listening for audit events
//!
//! This example shows how to use `netlink-proto` with the `tokio`
//! runtime to print audit events. It requires extra external
//! dependencies:
//!
//! - `futures = "^0.3"`
//! - `tokio = "^1.0"`
//! - `netlink-packet-audit = "^0.1"`
//!
//! ```rust,no_run
//! use futures::stream::StreamExt;
//! use netlink_packet_audit::{
//! AuditMessage,
//! NetlinkMessage,
//! NetlinkPayload,
//! StatusMessage,
//! NLM_F_ACK,
//! NLM_F_REQUEST,
//! };
//! use std::process;
//!
//! use netlink_proto::{
//! new_connection,
//! sys::{protocols::NETLINK_AUDIT, SocketAddr},
//! };
//!
//! const AUDIT_STATUS_ENABLED: u32 = 1;
//! const AUDIT_STATUS_PID: u32 = 4;
//!
//! #[tokio::main]
//! async fn main() -> Result<(), String> {
//! // Create a netlink socket. Here:
//! //
//! // - `conn` is a `Connection` that has the netlink socket. It's a
//! // `Future` that keeps polling the socket and must be spawned an
//! // the event loop.
//! //
//! // - `handle` is a `Handle` to the `Connection`. We use it to send
//! // netlink messages and receive responses to these messages.
//! //
//! // - `messages` is a channel receiver through which we receive
//! // messages that we have not solicited, ie that are not
//! // response to a request we made. In this example, we'll receive
//! // the audit event through that channel.
//! let (conn, mut handle, mut messages) = new_connection(NETLINK_AUDIT)
//! .map_err(|e| format!("Failed to create a new netlink connection: {}", e))?;
//!
//! // Spawn the `Connection` so that it starts polling the netlink
//! // socket in the background.
//! tokio::spawn(conn);
//!
//! // Use the `ConnectionHandle` to send a request to the kernel
//! // asking it to start multicasting audit event messages.
//! tokio::spawn(async move {
//! // Craft the packet to enable audit events
//! let mut status = StatusMessage::new();
//! status.enabled = 1;
//! status.pid = process::id();
//! status.mask = AUDIT_STATUS_ENABLED | AUDIT_STATUS_PID;
//! let payload = AuditMessage::SetStatus(status);
//! let mut nl_msg = NetlinkMessage::from(payload);
//! nl_msg.header.flags = NLM_F_REQUEST | NLM_F_ACK;
//!
//! // We'll send unicast messages to the kernel.
//! let kernel_unicast: SocketAddr = SocketAddr::new(0, 0);
//! let mut response = match handle.request(nl_msg, kernel_unicast) {
//! Ok(response) => response,
//! Err(e) => {
//! eprintln!("{}", e);
//! return;
//! }
//! };
//!
//! while let Some(message) = response.next().await {
//! if let NetlinkPayload::Error(err_message) = message.payload {
//! eprintln!("Received an error message: {:?}", err_message);
//! return;
//! }
//! }
//! });
//!
//! // Finally, start receiving event through the `messages` channel.
//! println!("Starting to print audit events... press ^C to interrupt");
//! while let Some((message, _addr)) = messages.next().await {
//! if let NetlinkPayload::Error(err_message) = message.payload {
//! eprintln!("received an error message: {:?}", err_message);
//! } else {
//! println!("{:?}", message);

//!
//! Ok(())
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! # Example: dumping all the machine's links
//!
//! This example shows how to use `netlink-proto` with the ROUTE
//! protocol.
//!
//! Here we do not use `netlink_proto::new_connection()`, and instead
//! create the socket manually and use call `send()` and `receive()`
//! directly. In the previous example, the `NetlinkFramed` was wrapped
//! in a `Connection` which was polled automatically by the runtime.
//!
//! ```rust,no_run
//! use futures::StreamExt;
//!
//! use netlink_packet_route::{
//! LinkMessage,
//! NetlinkHeader,
//! NetlinkMessage,
//! RtnlMessage,
//! NLM_F_DUMP,
//! NLM_F_REQUEST,
//! };
//!
//! use netlink_proto::{
//! new_connection,
//! sys::{protocols::NETLINK_ROUTE, SocketAddr},
//! };
//!
//! #[tokio::main]
//! async fn main() -> Result<(), String> {
//! // Create the netlink socket. Here, we won't use the channel that
//! // receives unsolicited messages.
//! let (conn, mut handle, _) = new_connection(NETLINK_ROUTE)
//! .map_err(|e| format!("Failed to create a new netlink connection: {}", e))?;
//!
//! // Spawn the `Connection` in the background
//! tokio::spawn(conn);
//!
//! // Create the netlink message that requests the links to be dumped
//! let msg = NetlinkMessage {
//! header: NetlinkHeader {
//! sequence_number: 1,
//! flags: NLM_F_DUMP | NLM_F_REQUEST,
//! ..Default::default()
//! },
//! payload: RtnlMessage::GetLink(LinkMessage::default()).into(),
//! };
//!
//! // Send the request
//! let mut response = handle
//! .request(msg, SocketAddr::new(0, 0))
//! .map_err(|e| format!("Failed to send request: {}", e))?;
//!
//! // Print all the messages received in response
//! loop {
//! if let Some(packet) = response.next().await {
//! println!("<<< {:?}", packet);
//! } else {
//! break;
//! }
//! }
//!
//! Ok(())
