Could you provide patches for BSD systems? I don't know if they support netlink. But I don't think that windows supports that.

LuoZijun commented 6 years ago

of course, next week.

polachok commented 6 years ago

Netlink sockets are not supported on BSDs as far as I know.

LuoZijun commented 6 years ago

@polachok you are right.

@bkchr the pnet project just impl ip addr.

i just has read this project code, now i know this project use linux netlink api to get ip address/ip neighbor/ip route info.

point is use netlink api.

sorry for wasting your time.
