One thing you don't mention, which we found particularly frustrating
with netlink, is that using it can often need cap_net_admin :(

Hey all,
I recently spent some time working with Linux's netlink IPC mechanism
in Go. Because I had a hard time finding accurate information about
netlink, I decided to do a write-up on some of its fundamental
concepts, and how I was able to make use of them from Go.
This post focuses on how netlink sockets and messages work, and how to
work with them from Go or another language of your choice.
You can find the first portion of that write-up, focusing on netlink,
here:

I still have more to write regarding generic netlink and my high-level
Go netlink and wifi packages themselves (parts 2 and 3).
If you're just looking for some source code, check out:

Happy to address any questions or comments here. Thanks for your time!
