I don't quite yet know the context but I have to intervene: keeping sockets open is not good. This will only cause problems. Any interface must be memory based. Something like "register a word which is set when an event arrives" is a much better interface. Who you then go and retrieve messages is another issue. If this is a rare event then opening is new netlink socket is no problem. -- ➧ Ulrich Drepper ➧ Red Hat, Inc. ➧ 444 Castro St ➧ Mountain View, CA ❖
