all: Avoid pointer arithmetic on `void *`

2019-08-16T05:42:03+00:00

ISO C requires that the pointer operand to the binary + operator be to
a complete object type[0].

Add SPDX identifiers

Software Package Data Exchange identifiers help to detect source file
licenses and hence simplify the FOSS compliance process.

nl: add "const" specifier for nla_policy argument of parse functions

2017-10-09T11:51:29+00:00

Adding const to a function argument is generally not an API break
(at least, if the argument is a struct, like in this case).

Usually we declare the policy as static variables. The user should
be able to mark them as "const", so that the linker makes the policy
array read-only. Adjust the API to allow for that.

lib/doc: clearify return value of send_simple() functions

2015-05-12T13:56:50+00:00

The return value of the *nl_send_simple() functions is
inconsistent and not according to the documentation.

nl_send_simple() is document to return the number of bytes sent.
Other *nl_send_simple() functions are documented to return 0 on
success -- for the most part.
See also commit b70174668b9867de573cf51471bc98bfe7fd2bc3 which
changed behavior of nl_rtgen_request() to be according to documenation.

Don't change behavior again, only adjust the documentation.

Fix types-related warnings based on clang diagnostics

2012-06-13T11:30:26+00:00

1. Fix some places where unsigned value compared < 0
2. Fix obsolete %Z specifier to more portable %z
3. Some erroneous types substitution
4. nl_msec2str() - 64-bit msec is now properly used,

Only safe changes. I mean int <--> uint32_t and signed/unsigned fixes.
Some functinos require size_t argument instead of int, but changes of
signatures of that functions is terrible thing.

Also, I do not pretend for a full list of fixes.
Just to shut up clang -Wall -Wextra

One more thing. ifindex. I don't change that because changes will
be too big for simple fix.

genl: Add genlmsg_user_hdr(), genlmsg_user_data(), and genlmsg_user_datalen()

2012-05-31T11:37:57+00:00

These functions deprecate the function genlmsg_data() which did not
allow to specify the length of the user header. Use of the new API
will make code much clearer. The old function is still kept around
for backwards compatibility but marked deprecated in the API reference.

genl: Add genlmsg_hdr()

2012-05-31T11:13:50+00:00
