[GENL]: Provide more information to userspace about registered genl families
Additionaly exports the following information when providing
the list of registered generic netlink families:
- protocol version
- header size
- maximum number of attributes
- list of available operations including
- id
- flags
- avaiability of policy and doit/dumpit function
libnl HEAD provides a utility to read this new information:
0x0010 nlctrl version 1
hdrsize 0 maxattr 6
op GETFAMILY (0x03) [POLICY,DOIT,DUMPIT]
0x0011 NLBL_MGMT version 1
hdrsize 0 maxattr 0
op unknown (0x02) [DOIT]
op unknown (0x03) [DOIT]
....
