Newsgroups org.kernel.vger.linux-kselftest,org.kernel.vger.linux-kernel,org.kernel.vger.netdev
Message-ID <[email protected]>
Declare the RTM_NEWROUTE and RTM_DELROUTE notifications and the route
multicast groups, so that generated clients can subscribe to route
changes. Both notifications reuse the getroute reply attributes.
