[NETLINK] Routing attribute related shortcuts
RTA_GET_U(32|64)(tlv)
Assumes TLV is a u32/u64 field and returns its value.
RTA_GET_[M]SECS(tlv)
Assumes TLV is a u64 and transports jiffies converted
to seconds or milliseconds and returns its value.
RTA_PUT_U(32|64)(skb, type, value)
Appends %value as fixed u32/u64 to %skb as TLV %type.
RTA_PUT_[M]SECS(skb, type, jiffies)
Converts %jiffies to secs/msecs and appends it as u64
to %skb as TLV %type.
RTA_PUT_STRING(skb, type, string)
Appends %NUL terminated %string to %skb as TLV %type.
RTA_NEST(skb, type)
Starts a nested TLV %type and returns the nesting handle.
RTA_NEST_END(skb, nesting_handle)
Finishes the nested TLV %nesting_handle, must be called
symmetric to RTA_NEST(). Returns skb->len
RTA_NEST_CANCEL(skb, nesting_handle)
Cancel the nested TLV %nesting_handle and trim nested TLV
from skb again, returns -1.
