Hi,
  I'm debugging application (zebra) which relies on Netlink , NETLINK_ROUTE messages
for updating it's routing table. We have scenario:
  ifconfig eth0 down , brings down the interface and all routes that go
through this interface are deleted from kernel routing table, kernel sends LINK_DOWN message,
but don't send RTM_DELROUTE messages when it deletes routes from it's table.
Does kernel assumes that after sending LINK_DOWN message for interface user
should delete routes himself and kernel doesn't send RTM_DELROUTE msg?
   Shouldn't netlink inform about all events without making dependencies b/w them?
                                                    Thanks
