Unnamed section

I'm interested in getting the Netlink documentation up to date. As anyone who writes Netlink code knows, the documentation is sparse. My limitations is that I work for an operating system company, so looking at Linux kernel source is not an option. Would any other Netlink developers be able to contribute here?

Article quality is quite low for wikipedia. It does not answer question what is Netlink. First sentence begins "Netlink is used to ...". It answers WHAT NETLINK DOES, however it does not answer WHAT IT IS. 79.75.140.20 01:13, 5 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The font changes are excessive. Poor writing, needs more style/font work. — Preceding unsigned comment added by TheseDitoRS (talk • contribs) 22:45, 17 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The first link in the "External Links" section ("Communicating between the kernel and user-space in Linux using Netlink sockets") appears to be broken. Searching for the title reveals alternate copies available online.

External links modified (January 2018)

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just modified one external link on Netlink. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20110902031641/http://1984.lsi.us.es/~pablo/docs/spae.pdf to http://1984.lsi.us.es/~pablo/docs/spae.pdf

When you have finished reviewing my changes, you may follow the instructions on the template below to fix any issues with the URLs.
