CRIU can dump queued data for unix and tcp sockets, now it's time for netlink sockets.
Here are there questions. * How to dump data from a receive queue We can set peeking offset like we do for unix sockets. * How to restore data back to a receive queue I suggest to add a repair mode like we do for tcp sockets. * When we can dump data from a receive queue. I think we can do this only if a socket doesn't have a running callback. Cc: Pavel Emelyanov <xe...@virtuozzo.com> Cc: "David S.
