Unfortunately there's absolutely no netlink support in the lantiq driver and I don't think any of that info is available elsewhere, I would have thought trying to add a netlink capability would be a bit extreme? (and probably well outside my capability) … and that would then need to be done for every subsequent DSL driver to maintain standardisation. There is an ioctl interface, which also works without the daemon running, which I did consider, but my thought was that this would require an extra binary to maintain (unless there's a simple lua ioctl interface, but I couldn't find one) and would have a lot less transparency than a script -- but I'm happy to knock something up to make use of this if it's considered a better approach.
