// Netlink messages are sent over netlink sockets to talk between user-space
// programs (like shill) and kernel modules (like the cfg80211 module).  Each
// kernel module that talks netlink potentially adds its own family header to
// the nlmsghdr (the top-level netlink message header) and, potentially, uses a
// different payload format.  The NetlinkMessage class represents that which
// is common between the different types of netlink message.
//
// The common portions of Netlink Messages start with a |nlmsghdr|.  Those
// messages look something like the following (the functions, macros, and
// datatypes described are provided by libnl -- see also
// http://www.infradead.org/~tgr/libnl/doc/core.html):
//
//         |<--------------nlmsg_total_size()----------->|

// All NetlinkMessages sent to the kernel need a valid message type (which is
// found in the nlmsghdr structure) and all NetlinkMessages received from the
// kernel have a valid message type.  Some message types (NLMSG_NOOP,
// NLMSG_ERROR, and GENL_ID_CTRL, for example) are allocated statically; for
// those, the |message_type_| is assigned directly.
//
// Other message types ("nl80211", for example), are assigned by the kernel
// dynamically.  To get the message type, pass a closure to assign the
// message_type along with the sting to NetlinkManager::GetFamily:
//
//  nl80211_type = netlink_manager->GetFamily(Nl80211Message::kMessageType);
//
// Do all of this before you start to create NetlinkMessages so that
// NetlinkMessage can be instantiated with a valid |message_type_|.
