// This software provides an abstracted interface to the netlink socket
// interface.  In its current implementation it is used, primarily, to
// communicate with the cfg80211 kernel module and mac80211 drivers:
//
//         [shill]--[nl80211 library, libnl_genl/libnl libraries]
//            |
//     (netlink socket)
//            |
// [cfg80211 kernel module]
//            |
//    [mac80211 drivers]
//
// In order to send a message and handle it's response, do the following:
// - Create a handler (it'll want to verify that it's the kind of message you
//   want, cast it to the appropriate type, and get attributes from the cast
//   message):
//
//    #include "nl80211_message.h"
//    class SomeClass {
//      static void MyMessageHandler(const NetlinkMessage &raw) {
//        if (raw.message_type() != ControlNetlinkMessage::kMessageType)
//          return;
//        const ControlNetlinkMessage *message =
//          reinterpret_cast<const ControlNetlinkMessage *>(&raw);
//        if (message.command() != NewFamilyMessage::kCommand)
//          return;
//        uint16_t my_attribute;
//        message->const_attributes()->GetU16AttributeValue(
//          CTRL_ATTR_FAMILY_ID, &my_attribute);
//      }  // MyMessageHandler.
//    }  // class SomeClass.
//
// - Instantiate a message:
//
//    #include "nl80211_message.h"
//    GetFamilyMessage msg;
//
// - And set attributes:
//
//    msg.attributes()->SetStringAttributeValue(CTRL_ATTR_FAMILY_NAME, "foo");
//
// - Then send the message, passing-in a closure to the handler you created:
//
//    NetlinkManager *netlink_manager = NetlinkManager::GetInstance();
//    netlink_manager->SendMessage(&msg, Bind(&SomeClass::MyMessageHandler));
//
// NetlinkManager will then save your handler and send your message.  When a
// response to your message arrives, it'll call your handler.
